What is Frontotemporal Dementia
•

•
•
•
Neuronal loss in frontal and temporal lobe
Genetic inheritance
Mostly diagnosed in young age
Emotional disability
Speech and language disorder

Background of this article
• FTP is frequently caused by genetic mutations in:
MAPT, GRN and C9orf72
• Some rare mutations are involved such as:
VCP, TDP-43, FUS and CHMP2B
http://www.nutraingredients-usa.com/Research/Omega-3-may-reduce-the-risk-of-neurodegenerative-diseases
Background of this article
• Charged Multi-vesicular Body Protein 2B (CHMP2B) is a
subunit of the Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for
Transport Ⅲ (ESCRT-Ⅲ)
http://jcb.rupress.org/content/185/2/185/F1.expansion.html
Background of this article
• Mutant CHMP2BIntron5 has been shown to affect the
maturation of both endosomes and auto-phagosomes
Endo-lysosomal System
http://www.nature.com/nrn/journal/v6/n9/box/nrn1725_BX1.html
Background of this article
• Mice with mutant CHMP2BIntron5 show progressive gliosis
and p62 inclusion pathology, as well as in human beings

What makes this article so special?
FTD patient
CHMP2B Mutation

Mutation
Caused by normal aging
What makes this article so special?
In patient’s frontal cortex
Result 1
Auto-fluorescent aggregates can be found in
CHMP2BIntron5 mice
Result 1: Auto-fluorescent aggregates can be
found in CHMP2BIntron5 mice
In thalamus
Result 1: Auto-fluorescent aggregates can be
found in CHMP2BIntron5 mice
In cortex
Result 2
Auto-fluorescent aggregates are distinct from
p62 inclusions in CHMP2BIntron5 mice
Result 2: Auto-fluorescent aggregates are distinct
from p62 inclusions in CHMP2BIntron5 mice
In thalamus
Result 2: Auto-fluorescent aggregates are distinct
from p62 inclusions in CHMP2BIntron5 mice
Low Pearsons correlation co-efficient means that p62
inclusions and auto-fluorescent aggregates are less co-localized
with each other
Result 3
CHMP2BIntron5 auto-fluorescent aggregates occur
in neurons and microglia
Result 3: CHMP2BIntron5 auto-fluorescent
aggregates occur in neurons and microglia
In thalamus
However, p62 inclusions exist mostly in
oligodendrocytic processes (stained by CA ll)
In contrast to auto-fluorescent aggregates, p62 inclusions predominantly occur in
the hippocampus rather than the frontal cortex in FTD patient’s brain.
Result 4
CHMP2BIntron5 neuronal aggregates associated
with the endo-lysosomal system
Result 4: CHMP2BIntron5 neuronal aggregates
associated with the endo-lysosomal system
Multi-vesicular body
Lamellar membrane whorls
Result 4: CHMP2BIntron5 neuronal aggregates
associated with the endo-lysosomal system
Result 4: CHMP2BIntron5 neuronal aggregates impair
the endo-lysosomal system
Discussion
• The excitation/emission spectra of auto-fluorescent
aggregates should be well-defined
• The role of p62 inclusions compared with the autofluorescent aggregates
• Is lipofuscin a precursor of the auto-fluorescent
aggregate?
Summary
• Auto-fluorescent aggregates can be found in the thalamus
and cortex of CHMP2BIntron5 mice
• The existing pattern of auto-fluorescent aggregates is
distinct from p62 inclusions in CHMP2BIntron5 mice
• The neuronal aggregates of CHMP2BIntron5 mutant are
associated with the endo-lysosomal system
Auto-fluorescent Protein
• The natural emission of light by biological structures but
not originating from the artificially added fluorescent
markers
• Spectral Imaging with Subsequent Linear Unmixing
technique is used to distinguish the signals between the
auto-fluorescence and the artificially labelled secondary
antibody.
