TI - Ultrastructure of the microglia that phagocytose amyloid and
the microglia that produce Beta-amyloid fibrils
AB - The function of microglia associated with beta-amyloid deposits
still remains a controversial issue. On the basis of recent
ultrastructural data, microglia were postulated to be cells
that form amyloid fibrils not phagocytes that remove amyloid
deposits. In this electron microscopic study, we examined the
ability of microglia to ingest and digest exogenous amyloid
fibrils in vitro.We demonstrate that amyloid fibrils are ingested
by cultured microglial cells and collected and stored in phagosomes.
The ingested nondegraded amyloid remains within phagosomes
for up to 20 days, suggesting a very limited effectiveness
of microglia in degrading beta- amyloid fibrils. On the other
hand, we showed that in microglial cells of classical plaques
in brain cortex of patients with Alzheimer's disease, amyloid
fibrils appear first in altered endoplasmic reticulum and deep
infoldings of cell membranes. These differences in intracellular
distribution of amyloid fibrils in microglial cells support
our observations that microglial cells associated with amyloid
plaques are engaged in production of amyloid, but not in phagocytosis.
