X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), the most frequent peroxisomal disorder, is associated with mutation in the ABCD1 gene which encodes a peroxisomal ATP-binding cassette transporter for very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA). The biochemical hallmark of the disease is the accumulation of VLCFA. Peroxisomal defect in microglia being now considered a priming event in the pathology, we have therefore generated murine microglial cells mutated in the Abcd1 gene and its closest homolog, the Abcd2 gene. Using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing strategy, we obtained 3 cell clones with a single or double deficiency. As expected, only the combined absence of ABCD1 and ABCD2 proteins resulted in the accumulation of VLCFA. Ultrastructural analysis by electron microscopy revealed in the double mutant cells the presence of lipid inclusions similar to those observed in brain macrophages of patients. These observations are likely related to the increased level of cholesterol and the accumulation of neutral lipids that we noticed in mutant cells. A preliminary characterization of the impact of peroxisomal defects on the expression of key microglial genes such as Trem2 suggests profound changes in microglial functions related to inflammation and phagocytosis. The expression levels of presumed modifier genes have also been found modified in mutant cells, making these novel cell lines relevant for use as in vitro models to better understand the physiopathogenesis of X-ALD and to discover new therapeutic targets.
