Sudden Intrabulbar Amyloid Increase Simultaneously Disrupts Olfactory Bulb Oscillations and Odor Detection

Abstract: There seems to be a correlation between soluble amyloid beta protein (Aβ) accumulation in the main olfactory bulb (OB) and smell deterioration in both Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients and animal models. Moreover, this loss of smell appears to be related to alterations in neural network activity in several olfactory-related circuits, including the OB, as has been observed in anesthetized animals and brain slices. It is possible that there is a correlation between these two pathological phenomena, but a direct … Show more

“…Furthermore, in ex vivo experiments, acute incubation of the OB with oligomeric AβO increases in the spontaneous firing rate of the mitral cells [ 9 ], which in turn send excitatory inputs back to the neurons in the glomerular layer [ 41 ]. Supporting our hypothesis that the acute effects in neuronal excitability of the OB circuits might be involved in the olfactory impairments observed in the present study, Alvarado-Martínez and others [ 36 , 43 ] have demonstrated alterations in the synchronized activity of the OB after AβO exposure, specifically, a decrease in the activation of the granular cell layer, which in turn inhibit the neurons in the mitral cell layer, leading to the hyperexcitability of the MC’s and the glomerular layer, ultimately leading to olfactory impairments after AβO i.c.v. and intra-bulbar administrations.…”

“…In the present study, we did not find significant changes in AβO accumulation in OB or HIPP. This is contrast with what has been reported in genetic models such as the AβPP/PS1 and Tg2576 where AβO accumulation appears at 3 months of age [ 6 , 8 , 10 ], or in chronic models, where AβO is accumulated in high quantities [ 33 36 ]. The lack of accumulation is probably due to brain clearance mechanisms, given that the infusions were performed in previously healthy animals [ 37 , 38 ].…”

“…While the research mentioned above found increases in gamma oscillations, it should also be noted that some studies have found decreases in OB oscillations in the presence of Aβ. Hernández-Soto et al applied Aβ by injection and measured activity in vivo in rat OBs an hour after application [33], and Alvarado-Martínez et al measuring cell activity in mouse and rat OB slices in vitro after bath application of Aβ [78]. Both found overall decreases in OB activity.…”

“…Other frequencies of oscillations are present in the bulb as well, namely theta (2-12 Hz) and beta (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30). The precise manner in which PD or AD impacts these oscillations and other OB functions is still a matter of investigation [1,2], although studies have found perturbations in this oscillatory activity in animal OBs in the presence of both PD-like pathology [16,32] and AD-like pathology [18][19][20][21]33].…”
