Primary spinal OPC culture system from adult zebrafish to study oligodendrocyte differentiation in vitro

ABSTRACT: Endogenous oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) are a promising target to improve functional recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI) by remyelinating denuded, and therefore vulnerable, axons. Demyelination is the result of a primary insult and secondary injury, leading to conduction blocks and long-term degeneration of the axons, which subsequently can lead to the loss of their neuron. In response to SCI, dormant OPCs can be activated and subsequently start to proliferate and differentiate into mature myelinating oligodendrocytes (OLs). Therefore, researchers strive to control OPC responses, and utilize small molecule screening approaches in order to identify mechanisms of OPC activation, proliferation, migration and differentiation.

Reactive oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (re-)myelinate the regenerating zebrafish spinal cord [transcriptome]

Project description:Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in loss of neurons, oligodendrocytes and myelin sheaths, all of which are not efficiently restored. The scarcity of oligodendrocytes in the lesion site impairs remyelination of spared fibres, which leaves axons denuded, impedes signal transduction and contributes to permanent functional deficits. In contrast to mammals, zebrafish can functionally regenerate the spinal cord. Yet, little is known about oligodendroglial lineage biology and remyelination capacity after SCI in a regeneration-permissive context. Here, we report that in adult zebrafish, SCI results in axonal, oligodendrocyte and myelin sheath loss. We find that OPCs, the oligodendorocyte progenitor cells, survive the injury, enter a reactive state, proliferate and differentiate into oligodendrocytes. Concomitantly, the oligodendrocyte population is re-established to pre-injury levels within two weeks.Transcriptional profiling revealed that reactive OPCs upregulate the expression of several myelination-related genes. Interestingly, global reduction of axonal tracts and partial re-myelination, relative to pre-injury levels, persist at later stages of regeneration, yet suffices for functional recovery. Taken together, these findings imply that in the zebrafish spinal cord, OPCs replace lost oligodendrocytes and, thus, re-establish myelination during regeneration.

The oligodendrocyte "protrusiosome": Identification of compartmentalized enrichment of transcripts in newly-formed protrusions of oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPC) by RNAseq

Project description:Like neurons, oligodendrocytes (OL) are cells with elaborate morphology that probably require asymmetrical spatial regulation of biological processes. Formation of membrane protrusions is critical for OL development and interaction with axons. We hypothesized that the enrichment of specific mRNAs in protrusions of oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPC) is important for morphological differentiation, thus having an impact in myelination. To explore this hypothesis, we established a modified Boyden chamber system to physically separate soma from membrane protrusions of rat primary OPC cultured in vitro for 24h. We performed a whole transcriptome analysis (RNAseq) of primary rat OPC soma and membrane protrusion fractions and found a subcellular enrichment of mRNAs in these structures during initial protrusion formation. At the very initial stage of OPC protrusion extension, there is a significant subcellular enrichment of transcripts encoding proteins related to cellular component assembly and cytoskeleton organization, particularly of actin-related molecules. This suggests that the regulation of the cytoskeleton dynamics may be locally controlled in OPCs and probably relevant for their differentiation program.

IL-17/CXCL5 signaling within the oligovascular niche mediates human and mouse white matter injury (OPC RiboTAG)

Project description:Cerebral small vessel disease and brain white matter injury are worsened by cardiovascular risk factors including obesity. Molecular pathways in cerebral endothelial cells activated by chronic cerebrovascular risk factors alter cell-cell signaling, blocking endogenous and post-ischemic white matter repair. Using cell-specific translating ribosome affinity purification(RiboTag) in white matter endothelia and oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs), we identify a coordinated interleukin-chemokine signaling cascade within the oligovascular niche of subcortical white matter that is triggered by diet-induced obesity (DIO).DIO induces IL-17B signaling that acts on the cerebral endothelia through IL-17Rb to increase both circulating and local endothelial expression of CXCL5. In white matter endothelia, CXCL5 promotes the association of OPCs with the vasculature and triggers OPC gene expression programs regulating cell migration through chemokine signaling. Targeted blockade of IL-17B reduced vessel-associated OPCs by reducing endothelial CXCL5 expression. In multiple human cohorts, blood levels of CXCL5 function as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of vascular cognitive impairment.

Transcription factor–mediated reprogramming of fibroblasts to expandable, myelinogenic oligodendrocyte progenitor cells

Project description:Cell-based therapies for myelin disorders, such as multiple sclerosis and leukodystrophies, require technologies to generate functional oligodendrocyte progenitor cells. Here we describe direct conversion of mouse embryonic and lung fibroblasts to ‘induced’ oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (iOPCs) using sets of either eight or three defined transcription factors. iOPCs exhibit a bipolar morphologyical and global gene expression profile molecular features consistent with bona fide OPCs. They can be expanded in vitro for at least five passages while retaining the ability to differentiate into induced multiprocessed oligodendrocytes. When transplanted to hypomyelinated mice, iOPCs are capable of ensheathing host axons and generating compact myelinmyelinating axons both in vitro and in vivo. Lineage conversion of somatic cells to expandable iOPCs provides a strategy to study the molecular control of oligodendrocyte lineage identity and may facilitate neurological disease modeling and autologous remyelinating therapies. 6 total samples were analyzed. MEFs were either untreated or infected with inducible lentiviral vectors containing the open reading frames of transcription factors. Samples were compared to bona fide OPCs.

Ferroptosis in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells mediates white matter injury after hemorrhagic stroke

Project description:Oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) differentiate to myelin-producing mature oligodendrocytes and enwrap growing or demyelinated axons during development and post central nervous diseases. Failure of remyelination due to cell death or undifferentiation of OPC contributes to severe neurologic deficits and motor dysfunction. However, how to prevent the cell death of OPCs is still poorly understood, especially in hemorrhagic diseases. In this current study, we injected autologous blood into the mouse lateral ventricular to study the hemorrhage induced OPC cell death in vivo. The integrity of the myelin sheath of the corpus callosum was disrupted post intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) assessed by using magnetic resonance imaging, immunostaining, and transmission electron microscopy. Consistent with the severe demethylation, we observed massive cell death of oligodendrocyte lineages in the periventricular area. In addition, we found that ferroptosis is the major cell death form in Hemin-induced OPC death by using RNA-seq analysis, and the mechanism was glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) expression and activity reduction-resulted lipid peroxide accumulation. Furthermore, inhibition of ferroptosis rescued OPC cell death in vitro, and in vivo attenuated IVH-induced white matter injury and promoted recovery of neurological function. These data demonstrate that ferroptosis is an essential form of OPC cell death in hemorrhagic stroke, and rescuing ferroptotic OPCs could serve as a therapeutic target for stroke and related diseases.

Endothelin-1-Endothelin B complex contributes to oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelin deficits during preterm white matter injury

Project description:Preterm cerebral white matter injury (WMI), a major form of prenatal brain injury, may potentially be treated by oligodendrocyte (OL) precursor cell (OPC) transplantation. However, the defective differentiation of OPCs during WMI seriously hampers the clinical application of OPC transplantation. Thus, improving the ability of transplanted OPCs to differentiate is critical to OPC transplantation therapy for WMI. Here, we established a hypoxia-ischemia-induced preterm WMI model in mice and screened the molecules affected by WMI using single-cell RNA sequencing. We revealed that endothelin (ET)-1 and endothelin receptor B (ETB) were a pair of signaling molecules for the interaction between neurons and OPCs, and that preterm WMI led to an increase in the number of ETB-positive OPCs and premyelinating OLs. Furthermore, the maturation of OLs was reduced by knocking out ETB, but promoted by stimulating ET-1/ETB signaling. Our work reveals a new signaling module for neuron-OPC interaction and provides new insight for therapy targeting preterm WMI.
