Abstract

SUMMARYMicroglial calcium signaling is rare in a baseline state but shows strong engagement during early epilepsy development. The mechanism and purpose behind microglial calcium signaling is not known. By developing anin vivoUDP fluorescent sensor, GRABUDP1.0, we discovered that UDP release is a conserved response to seizures and excitotoxicity across brain regions. UDP signals to the microglial P2Y6receptor for broad increases in calcium signaling during epileptogenesis. UDP-P2Y6signaling is necessary for lysosome upregulation across limbic brain regions and enhances production of pro-inflammatory cytokines—TNFα and IL-1β. Failures in lysosome upregulation, observed in P2Y6KO mice, can also be phenocopied by attenuating microglial calcium signaling in Calcium Extruder (“CalEx”) mice. In the hippocampus, only microglia with P2Y6expression can perform full neuronal engulfment, which substantially reduces CA3 neuron survival and impairs cognition. Our results demonstrate that calcium activity, driven by UDP-P2Y6signaling, is a signature of phagocytic and pro-inflammatory function in microglia during epileptogenesis.
