Topic: Disease mechanisms in lab and animal studies
Familial Alzheimer's disease (fAD) results from mutations in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) and presenilin (PSEN1 and PSEN2) genes. Here we leveraged recent advances in induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) and CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technologies to generate a panel of isogenic knockin human iPSC lines carrying APP and/or PSEN1 mutations. Global transcriptomic and translatomic profiling revealed that fAD mutations have overlapping effects on the expression of AD-related and endocytosis-associated genes. Mutant neurons also increased Rab5+ early endosome size. APP and PSEN1 mutations had discordant effects on Aβ production but similar effects on APP β C-terminal fragments (β-CTFs), which accumulate in all mutant neurons. Importantly, endosomal dysfunction correlated with accumulation of β-CTFs, not Aβ, and could be rescued by pharmacological modulation of β-secretase (BACE). These data display the utility of our mutant iPSCs in studying AD-related phenotypes in a non-overexpression human-based system and support mounting evidence that β-CTF may be critical in AD pathogenesis.

How this study scored 38/100
Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scored zero for study design, sample size, effect reported and randomized / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record and multicenter collaboration, so those were left out: it earned 22 of the 58 points we could judge it on, which is 38 out of 100.
