-amyloid (A
)
induces astrocyte activation in vitro and that this
reaction is attenuated by the addition of exogenous apolipoprotein E
(apoE)-containing particles. However, the effects of A
on endogenous
apoE and apoJ levels and the potential role of apoE receptors in
astrocyte activation have not been addressed. Three activating stimuli
(lipopolysaccharide, dibutyryl cAMP, and aged A
1-42) were
used to induce activation of rat astrocyte cultures, as assessed by
changes in morphology and an increase in interleukin-1
. However,
only A
also induced ~50% reduction in the amount of released apoE
and apoJ and an 8-fold increase in the levels of cell-associated apoE
and apoJ. Experiments using two concentrations of receptor-associated
protein, an inhibitor of apoE receptors with a differential affinity
for the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and the LDLR-related protein (LRP), suggest that LRP mediates A
-induced astrocyte activation, whereas LDLR mediates the A
-induced changes in apoE levels. Receptor-associated protein had no effect on apoJ levels or on
activation by either dibutyryl cAMP or lipopolysaccharide. These data
suggest that apoE receptors translate the presence of extracellular
A
into cellular responses, both initiating and modulating the
inflammatory response induced by A
.
