ABSTRACT
Emerging data have highlighted the coexistence of multiple sclerosis (MS) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), both of which are common central nervous system degenerative diseases with a heavy burden on patients, their families, and society. However, it is unclear how MS progresses under an AD pathological background. We aimed to address the question of how MS progresses under an AD pathological background. We induced the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model of MS in two types of AD mouse models, Tg6799 and APP/PS1 mice. We found that, compared with wild-type mice, the clinical symptoms of EAE were significantly ameliorated in APP/PS1 mice but not in Tg6799 mice. Moreover, a much lower level of serum Aß was observed in Tg6799 mice. EAE clinical symptoms in Tg6799 and C57BL/6J mice were ameliorated by intraperitoneal injection of Aß42. Peripheral administration of Aß42 peptides was able to inhibit Th17 development in vivo, which is likely to occur through the inhibition of IL-6 production in dendritic cells. Our findings revealed that AD and EAE could coexist in the same mouse, and Aß residing in peripheral circulation likely plays an anti-inflammatory role in preventing EAE progression. These findings reveal the potential benefit of Aß, one of the supervillains of AD, at least in certain contexts.
