Early synaptic dysfunction is a hallmark of Alzheimers disease (AD), yet the astrocytic mechanisms underlying these alterations remain poorly defined. Here, we identify astrocyte perisynaptic processes (PAPs) as subcellular hotspots of early translational dysregulation in AD. Soluble A{beta} rapidly enhanced global and local protein synthesis in primary astrocytes. In 5.5-month-old APP/PS1 dE9 (APP) mice, translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) revealed widespread remodeling of the PAP translatome, while whole-astrocyte translation remained largely unchanged. Dysregulated mRNAs were linked to neuroinflammation, synaptic remodeling, and endoplasmic reticulum stress, and alterations emerged prior to amyloid plaque deposition. Among them, Serpina3n exhibited increased mRNA abundance in PAPs, uncovering spatially restricted translational control. Mechanistically, early Serpina3n upregulation was partially driven by JAK STAT3 signaling, with preferential effects in astrocyte processes. These findings reveal that local translation in astrocyte PAPs is an early and compartment-specific mechanism that may contribute to synaptic dysfunction and disease initiation in AD.
