摘要

Astrocytes respond to any pathological condition in the central nervous system (CNS) including Alzheimer?s disease (AD), and this response is called astrocyte reactivity. Astrocyte reaction to a CNS insult is a highly heterogeneous phenomenon in which the astrocytes undergo a set of morphological, molecular and functional changes with a characteristic secretome profile. Such astrocytes are termed as ?reactive astrocytes?. Controversies regarding the reactive astrocytes abound. Recently, a continuum of reactive astrocyte profiles with distinct transcriptional states has been identified. Among them, disease-associated astrocytes (DAA) were uniquely present in AD mice and expressed a signature set of genes implicated in complement cascade, endocytosis and aging. Earlier, two stimulus-specific reactive astrocyte subtypes with their unique transcriptomic signatures were identified using mouse models of neuroinflammation and ischemia and termed as A1 astrocytes (detrimental) and A2 astrocytes (beneficial) respectively. Interestingly, although most of the A1 signature genes were also detected in DAA, as opposed to A2 astrocyte signatures, some of the A1 specific genes were expressed in other astrocyte subtypes, indicating that these nomenclature-based signatures are not very specific. In this review, we elaborate the disparate functions and cytokine profiles of reactive astrocyte subtypes in AD and tried to distinguish them by designating neurotoxic astrocytes as A1-like and neuroprotective ones as A2-like without directly referring to the A1/A2 original nomenclature. We have also focused on the dual nature from a functional perspective of some cytokines depending on AD-stage, highlighting a number of them as major candidates in AD therapy. Therefore, we suggest that promoting subtype-specific beneficial roles, inhibiting subtype-specific detrimental roles or targeting subtype-specific cytokines constitute a novel therapeutic approach to AD treatment.
