Project description:We used microarray gene expression analyses to unveil the mechanisms underlying NT-3-chitosan-induced spinal cord regeneration. Complete transaction of thoracic spinal cord at T7/8 was performed, with a 5 mm segment of the spinal cord being removed. The emptied space where either refilled with a 5mm chitosan tube loaded with or without NT-3 (NT-3 or empty tube, ET, respectively) or left alone (lesion control, LC). At 1, 3, 10, 20, 30, 60, 90days post surgery, animals were sacrificed, and 5mm segments of spinal cord at the lesion site, as well as immediately caudal or rostral to the lesion segment were collected labeled with R for rostral, C for caudal, and M for lesion site

Project description:Transected spinal cord injury (SCI) results in significant structural disruption of the spinal cord. The reconstruction of neural pathways following SCI faces several key challenges, including inadequate endogenous neural stem cells (NSCs) and poor neurogenesis in natural repair process, and concerns related to the long-term survival of neurons following exogenous transplantation. In the current study, we report an oligonucleotide aptamer drug (Apt19S) which is first proven to recruit endogenous NSCs to the site of injury following SCI, and therefore develop a bionic spinal cord scaffold that can sustainedly release Apt19S and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) to provide the neurogenic niche with the necessary mechanical properties and support for in situ spinal cord repair. The bionic scaffold successfully recruited a significant number of endogenous NSCs in vivo and established a neurogenic niche that was abundant in NT-3, thereby promoting neuronal differentiation and the formation of neuronal networks Regenerated nerve fibers including 5-hydroxytryptamine-positive nerve fibers and corticospinal tract grew robustly into the injury site and generated synaptic connections with the newborn neurons. Collectively, our findings indicate that our aptamer-based bionic spinal cord scaffold elicits a robust neurogenesis process in situ, breaking the limitations imposed by poor self-repair ability in the adult spinal cord.

Project description:Adult zebrafish have the ability to recover from spinal cord injury and exhibit re-growth of descending axons from the brainstem to the spinal cord. We performed gene expression analysis using microarray to find damage-induced genes after spinal cord injury, which shows that Sox11b mRNA is up-regulated at 11 days after injury. However, the functional relevance of Sox11b for regeneration is not known. Here, we report that the up-regulation of Sox11b mRNA after spinal cord injury is mainly localized in ependymal cells lining the central canal and in newly differentiating neuronal precursors or immature neurons. Using an in vivo morpholino-based gene knockout approach, we demonstrate that Sox11b is essential for locomotor recovery after spinal cord injury. In the injured spinal cord, expression of the neural stem cell associated gene, Nestin, and the proneural gene Ascl1a (Mash1a), which are involved in the self-renewal and cell fate specification of endogenous neural stem cells, respectively, is regulated by Sox11b. Our data indicate that Sox11b promotes neuronal determination of endogenous stem cells and regenerative neurogenesis after spinal cord injury in the adult zebrafish. Enhancing Sox11b expression to promote proliferation and neurogenic determination of endogenous neural stem cells after injury may be a promising strategy in restorative therapy after spinal cord injury in mammals. Spinal cord injury or control sham injury was performed on adult zebrafish. After 4, 12, or 264 hrs, a 5 mm segment of spinal cord was dissected and processed (as a pool from 5 animals) in three replicate groups for each time point and treatment.

Project description:Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces a sequence of endogenous autodestructive changes known as secondary injury, as well as reactive biochemical changes that are neuroprotective and/or promote recovery. All these responses to SCI are, in part re?ected in changes in gene expression. In order to assess changes in gene expression involved in the regeneration process,microarrays were performed as a function of time after SCI for the various treatments. Three groups rats(i.e.NT-3-chitosan tube group, tube alone group and lesion control group) used to interrogate Affymetrix (SantaClara,CA) GeneChips were sacrificed by intraperitoneally over dose injecting 6% chloral hydrate at 1, 3, 10, 20, 30, and 90 d after the operation. The spinal cords were surgically re-exposed and spinal tissue including dura and meninges was dissected into three blocks, i.e. 5 mm long segments in the lesioned area (M), rostral to the lesioned area (R), and caudal to the lesioned areas (C) were sampled under RNAase-free conditions. The samples were quick frozen and kept in liquid nitrogen.

Project description:Summary: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a damage to the spinal cord induced by trauma or disease resulting in a loss of mobility or feeling. SCI is characterized by a primary mechanical injury followed by a secondary injury in which several molecular events are altered in the spinal cord often resulting in loss of neuronal function. Analysis of the areas directly (spinal cord) and indirectly (raphe and sensorimotor cortex) affected by injury will help understanding mechanisms of SCI. Hypothesis: Areas of the brain primarily affected by spinal cord injury are the Raphe and the Sensorimotor cortex thus gene expression profiling these two areas might contribute understanding the mechanisms of spinal cord injury. Specific Aim: The project aims at finding significantly altered genes in the Raphe and Sensorimotor cortex following an induced moderate spinal cord injury in T9. Keywords: other
