Cellular senescence induced by cholesterol accumulation is mediated by lysosomal ABCA1 in APOE4 and AD.
Article in Research square, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Cellular senescence is a hallmark of aging and has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Cholesterol accumulation drives cellular senescence; however, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays an important role in cholesterol homeostasis. ABCA1 expression and its trafficking is afiltered in APOE4 and AD cellular and mouse models. However, whether ABCA1 trafficking is involved in cellular senescence in APOE4 and AD remains unknown. Methods: We examined the association between cellular senescence and ABCA1 expression in human postmortem brain samples using transcriptomic, histological, and biochemical analyses. An unbiased proteomic screening was performed to identify targets that mediate cellular ABCA1 trafficking. APOE4-TR mice, immortalized, primary and induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) models were used to examine the cholesterol-ABCA1-senescence pathways. Results: Bulk and single nuclei transcriptomic profiling of the human dorsolateral prefrontal cortex from the Religious Order Study/Memory Aging Project (ROSMAP) revealed upregulation of cellular senescence transcriptome signatures in AD, which was strongly correlated with ABCA1 expression. Immunofluorescence and immunoblotting analyses confirmed increased ABCA1 expression in AD brain tissues, which was associated with lipofuscin-stained lipids and mTOR phosphorylation. Using discovery proteomics, caveolin-1, a sensor of cellular cholesterol accumulation, was identified to promote ABCA1 endolysosomal trafficking. Greater caveolin-1 expression was found in both APOE4-TR mouse models and AD human brains. Cholesterol induced mTORC1 activation was regulated by ABCA1 expression or its lysosomal trapping. Reducing cholesterol by cyclodextrin in APOE4-TR mice reduced ABCA1 lysosome trapping and increased ABCA1 recycling to efflux cholesterol to HDL particles, reducing mTORC1 activation and senescence-associated neuroinflammation. In human iPSC-derived astrocytes, the reduction of cholesterol by cyclodextrin attenuated inflammatory responses. Conclusions: Cholesterol accumulation in APOE4 and AD induced caveolin-1 expression, which traps ABCA1 in lysosomes to activate mTORC1 pathways and induce cellular senescence. This study provided novel insights into how cholesterol accumulation in APOE4 and AD accelerates senescence.
