  • Injury-induced neural stem/progenitor cells in post-stroke human cerebral cortex. 20104652

    Increasing evidence points to accelerated neurogenesis after stroke, and support of such endogenous neurogenesis has been shown to improve stroke outcome in experimental animal models. The present study analyses post-stroke cerebral cortex after cardiogenic embolism in autoptic human brain. Induction of nestin- and musashi-1-positive cells, potential neural stem/progenitor cells, was observed at the site of ischemic lesions from day 1 after stroke. These two cell populations were present at distinct locations and displayed different temporal profiles of marker expression. However, no surviving differentiated mature neural cells were observed by 90 days after stroke in the previously ischemic region. Consistent with recent reports of neurogenesis in the cerebral cortex after induction of stroke in rodent models, the present current data indicate the presence of a regional regenerative response in human cerebral cortex. Furthermore, observations underline the potential importance of supporting survival and differentiation of endogenous neural stem/progenitor cells in post-stroke human brain.

  • Function of mouse embryonic stem cell-derived supporting cells in neural progenitor cell maturation and long term expansion. 23342136

    In the differentiation of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells into neurons using the 5-stage method, cells in stage 4 are in general used as neural progenitors (NPs) because of their ability to give rise to neurons. The choice of stage 4 raises several questions about neural progenitors such as the type of cell types that are specifically considered to be neural progenitors, the exact time when these progenitors become capable of neurogenesis and whether neurogenesis is an independent and autonomous process or the result of an interaction between NP cells and the surrounding cells.In this study, we found that the confluent monolayer cells and neural sphere like cell clusters both appeared in the culture of the first 14 days and the subsequent 6 weeks. However, only the sphere cells are neural progenitors that give rise to neurons and astrocytes. The NP cells require 14 days to mature into neural lineages fully capable of differentiation. We also found that although the confluent monolayer cells do not undergo neurogenesis, they play a crucial role in the growth, differentiation, and apoptosis of the sphere cells, during the first 14 days and long term culture, by secreted factors and direct cell to cell contact.The sphere cells in stage 4 are more committed to developing into neural progenitors than monolayer cells. Interaction between the monolayer cells and sphere cells is important in the development of stage 4 cell characteristics.

  • A novel population of myeloid cells responding to coxsackievirus infection assists in the dissemination of virus within the neonatal CNS. 20573913

    Enterovirus infection in newborn infants is a significant cause of aseptic meningitis and encephalitis. Using a neonatal mouse model, we previously determined that coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) preferentially targets proliferating neural stem cells located in the subventricular zone within 24 h after infection. At later time points, immature neuroblasts, and eventually mature neurons, were infected as determined by expression of high levels of viral protein. Here, we show that blood-derived Mac3(+) mononuclear cells were rapidly recruited to the CNS within 12 h after intracranial infection with CVB3. These cells displayed a myeloid-like morphology, were of a peripheral origin based on green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged adoptive cell transplant examination, and were highly susceptible to CVB3 infection during their migration into the CNS. Serial immunofluorescence images suggested that the myeloid cells enter the CNS via the choroid plexus, and that they may be infected during their extravasation and passage through the choroid plexus epithelium; these infected myeloid cells ultimately penetrate into the parenchyma of the brain. Before their migration through the ependymal cell layer, a subset of these infected myeloid cells expressed detectable levels of nestin, a marker for neural stem and progenitor cells. As these nestin(+) myeloid cells infected with CVB3 migrated through the ependymal cell layer, they revealed distinct morphological characteristics typical of type B neural stem cells. The recruitment of these novel myeloid cells may be specifically set in motion by the induction of a unique chemokine profile in the CNS induced very early after CVB3 infection, which includes upregulation of CCL12. We propose that intracranial CVB3 infection may lead to the recruitment of nestin(+) myeloid cells into the CNS which might represent an intrinsic host CNS repair response. In turn, the proliferative and metabolic status of recruited myeloid cells may render them attractive targets for CVB3 infection. Moreover, the migratory ability of these myeloid cells may point to a productive method of virus dissemination within the CNS.

  • Differentiation of neuronal cells from NIH3T3 fibroblasts under defined conditions. 21477161

    We attempted to test whether the differentiated NIH/3T3 fibroblasts could be differentiated into neuronal cells without any epigenetic modification. First, a neurosphere assay was carried out, and we successfully generated neurosphere-like cells by floating cultures of NIH/3T3 fibroblasts in neural stem cell medium. These spheres have the ability to form sub-spheres after three passages, and express the neural progenitor markers Nestin, Sox2, Pax6, and Musashi-1. Second, after shifting to a differentiating medium and culturing for an additional 8 days, cells in these spheres expressed the neuronal markers β-tubulin and neurofilament 200 and the astrocytic marker glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). Finally, after treating the spheres with all-trans retinoic acid and taurine, the expression of β-tubulin was increased and the staining of photoreceptor markers rhodopsin and recoverin was observed. The present study shows that NIH/3T3 fibroblasts can generate neurosphere-like, neuron-like, and even photoreceptor-like cells under defined conditions, suggesting that the differentiated non-neuronal cells NIH/3T3 fibroblasts, but not pluripotent cells such as embryonic stem cells or induced pluripotent stem cells, may have the potential to be transdifferentiated into neuronal cells without adding any epigenetic modifier. This transdifferentiation may be due to the possible neural progenitor potential of NIH/3T3 fibroblasts that remains dormant under normal conditions.

  • Pluripotent stem cells engrafted into the normal or lesioned adult rat spinal cord are restricted to a glial lineage. 11161592

    Proliferating populations of undifferentiated neural stem cells were isolated from the embryonic day 14 rat cerebral cortex or the adult rat subventricular zone. These cells were pluripotent through multiple passages, retaining the ability to differentiate in vitro into neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. Two weeks to 2 months after engraftment of undifferentiated, BrdU-labeled stem cells into the normal adult spinal cord, large numbers of surviving cells were seen. The majority of the cells differentiated with astrocytic phenotype, although some oligodendrocytes and undifferentiated, nestin-positive cells were detected; NeuN-positive neurons were not seen. Labeled cells were also engrafted into the contused adult rat spinal cord (moderate NYU Impactor injury), either into the lesion cavity or into the white or gray matter both rostral and caudal to the injury epicenter. Up to 2 months postgrafting, the majority of cells either differentiated into GFAP-positive astrocytes or remained nestin positive. No BrdU-positive neurons or oligodendrocytes were observed. These results show robust survival of engrafted stem cells, but a differentiated phenotype restricted to glial lineages. We suggest that in vitro induction prior to transplantation will be necessary for these cells to differentiate into neurons or large numbers of oligodendrocytes.

  • Neuron-specific relaxation of Igf2r imprinting is associated with neuron-specific histone modifications and lack of its antisense transcript Air. 16037066

    The mouse insulin-like growth factor II receptor (Igf2r) gene and its antisense transcript Air are reciprocally imprinted in most tissues, but in the brain, Igf2r is biallelically expressed despite the imprinted Air expression. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of such brain-specific relaxation of Igf2r imprinting, we analyzed its expression and epigenetic modifications in neurons, glial cells and fibroblasts by the use of primary cortical cell cultures. In glial cells and fibroblasts, Igf2r was maternally expressed and Air was paternally expressed, whereas in the primary cultured neurons, Igf2r was biallelically expressed and Air was not expressed. In the differentially methylated region 2 (DMR2), which includes the Air promoter, allele-specific DNA methylation, differential H3 and H4 acetylation and H3K4 and K9 di-methylation were maintained in each cultured cell type. In DMR1, which includes the Igf2r promoter, maternal-allele-specific DNA hypomethylation, histones H3 and H4 acetylation and H3K4 di-methylation were apparent in glial cells and fibroblasts. However, in neurons, biallelic DNA hypomethylation and biallelic histones H3 and H4 acetylation and H3K4 di-methylation were detected. These data indicate that lack of reciprocal imprinting of Igf2r and Air in the brain results from neuron-specific relaxation of Igf2r imprinting associated with neuron-specific histone modifications in DMR1 and lack of Air expression. Our observation of biallelic Igf2r expression with no Air expression in neurons sheds light on the function of Air as a critical effector in Igf2r silencing and suggests that neuron-specific epigenetic modifications related to the lineage determination of neural stem cells play a critical role in controlling imprinting by antisense transcripts.
