Project description:Gene expression changes induced by alpha-secretase cleaved amyloid precursor protein (sAPPalpha) in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures of male, postnatal day 15 mice (C57B6/SJL). Hippocampal slice cultures were treated with phosphate buffered saline (GSM26700, GSM26701, GSM26702) or 1 nM sAPPalpha (GSM26703, GSM26704, GSM26705) for 24 h. Each sample consists of total RNA isolated from 8-12 slices from 4 mice. Data were analyzed with MAS 5.0 and scaled to 2500. sAPPalpha induces the amyloid sequestration protein transthyretin, insulin-like growth factor 2, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2, and other genes involved in protective pathways such as apoptosis inhibition, detoxification, and retinol transport.

Project description:The numerous neurological syndromes associated with COVID-19 implicate an effect of viral pathogenesis on neuronal function, yet reports of direct SARS-CoV-2 infection in the brain are conflicting. We used a well-established organotypic brain slice culture to determine the permissivity of hamster brain tissues to SARS-CoV-2 infection. We found levels of live virus waned after inoculation and observed no evidence of cell-to-cell spread, indicating that SARS-CoV-2 infection was non-productive. Nonetheless, we identified a small number of infected cells with glial phenotypes; yet no evidence of viral infection or replication was observed in neurons. Our data corroborates several clinical studies that have assessed patients with COVID-19 and their association with neurological involvement.

Project description:The neurite outgrowth inhibitory myelin protein Nogo-A has been well studied in the context of central nervous system (CNS) injury and disease. We studied the effects of the application of neutralizing anti-Nogo-A antibodies (11C7 and 7B12) in intact CNS tissue in vitro using rat organotypic hippocampal slice cultures. This study had the purpose of elucidating the role of Nogo-A in the adult intact CNS and determining the consequences of its neutralization through antibody application. In vitro cultures treated with anti-Nogo-A antibody showed an elicited growth response. The results also gave indications that hippocampal circuitry might be altered due to the regulation at the synaptic and neurotransmission level.

Project description:The neurite outgrowth inhibitory myelin protein Nogo-A has been well studied in the context of central nervous system (CNS) injury and disease. We studied the effects of the application of neutralizing anti-Nogo-A antibodies (11C7 and 7B12) in intact CNS tissue in vitro using rat organotypic hippocampal slice cultures. This study had the purpose of elucidating the role of Nogo-A in the adult intact CNS and determining the consequences of its neutralization through antibody application. In vitro cultures treated with anti-Nogo-A antibody showed an elicited growth response. The results also gave indications that hippocampal circuitry might be altered due to the regulation at the synaptic and neurotransmission level. Experiment Overall Design: Nogo-A function in the intact CNS tissue is not well known, but its neutralization in vivo produced a transitory growth response of Purkinje axons and of the corticospinal tract in intact adult rats (Buffo et al., 2000; Bareyre et al., 2002; Gianola et al., 2003). Nogo-A is relatively highly expressed in oligodendrocytes and some neurons of the hippocampus (Huber et al., 2002; Meier et al., 2003; Gil et al., 2006; Trifunovski et al., 2006). Organotypic hippocampal slice cultures are a good in vitro model to study hippocampal function and structure (Stoppini et al., 1991; 1993; Bahr, 1995; Gahwiler et al., 1997; Hakkoum et al., 2006). They mature in vitro and retain many in vivo features from a structural and functional perspective. We chose this model to study the effects of acute Nogo-A neutralization, using two function blocking monoclonal antibodies, 11C7 and 7B12 (Oertle et al., 2003; Wiessner et al., 2003; Liebscher et al., 2005), exclusively targeted against the Nogo-A specific region. Hippocampal slices from P7 Wistar rats were cultured for 21 DIV. Control untreated cultures where cultured for additional 5days for a total of 26DIV, while control IgG, and 11C7 and 7B12 were added to 21DIV cultures which were then further cultured for 5days, changing medium every 2 days. All the conditions were repeated in triplicates with separate cultures from different animals. For each condition and experimental replicate 24 cultures were pooled together before being processed for RNA extraction. Data analysis was performed by GeneSpring 7.2 (Silicon Genetics, Agilent, CA, US) comparing 11C7 and 7B12 treated samples versus Not treated and IgG treated, as controls. A present call filter (2 out of 3 present calls in at least one out of the 3 experimental replicates) was applied. Normalization was run per chip as well as per gene to the median of the control replicates. Data were statistical restricted through a 1-way Anova (pâ?¤0.05). A final threshold of â?¥1.2 fold of increase or decrease in the expression level of each single transcript was applied. Regulated transcripts have been assigned to functional categories according to GeneOntology as well as literature and database mining (Pubmed; Bioinformatics Harvester EMBL Heidelberg; Rat Genome Database).

Project description:One of the major challenges in cancer research is to find models closely resembling the tumor within patients. Human tissue slice cultures represent a promising approach to display the patient's biology ex vivo. Recently, it was shown that these slices can be successfully analyzed by whole transcriptome sequencing as well as automated histochemistry, increasing their usability as preclinical model. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly malignant brain tumor with poor prognosis and little is known about its genetic background and heterogeneity regarding therapy success. In this study, tissue of 25 patients with primary GBM were processed into slice cultures and treated with standard therapy (irradiation and temozolomide). Total RNA sequencing and automated histochemistry were performed to display treatment-mediated effects at a transcriptional and histological level. Slice cultures from long-term survivors (OS > 24 months) exhibited higher apoptosis than cultures from patients with shorter OS. Proliferation within these slices was slightly increased in contrast to other groups, but not significant. Among all samples, 58 protein-coding genes were upregulated and 32 downregulated in treated vs. untreated slice cultures. In general, an upregulation of DNA damage-related and cell cycle checkpoint genes as well as enrichment of genotoxicity pathways and p53-dependent signaling was found after treatment. In conclusion, we demonstrate that treatment-mediated effects in GBM slice cultures can be determined by RNA sequencing and histological staining. The slice culture model reproduces knowledge from former studies regarding transcriptomic changes and its applicability is further improved by a comprehensible correlation with survival data of the patients.
