  • 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.

  • Neurogenic potential of isolated precursor cells from early post-gastrula somitic tissue. 19326969

    Adult tissues are known to contain rare populations of stem cells with multilineage differentiation potential that are distinct from other resident tissue-specific stem cells. However, whether multilineage stem cells are involved in tissue development is uncertain, primarily because the identification and characterization of these cells in embryonic tissue primordia is not well established. We tested whether stem cells with multilineage potential are present within the early post-gastrula somite tissue. We show that clonally derived precursor cells generate colonies with self-renewal capacity and have both neurogenic and myogenic lineage potential. Somite colonies contain cells that express Sox2, nestin, and Sca1, but do not express genes indicative of somitic mesoderm specification. Furthermore, we demonstrate that this multilineage potential is not due to colony cells with a pluripotent epiblast identity or the selection of p75 receptor-positive neural crest stem cells. Despite utilizing a highly undifferentiated tissue source, colony formation was not enhanced relative to reported estimates of multilineage stem cells from adult muscle, a derivative of the embryonic somite. Thus, our findings suggest that a permissive in vitro environment is sufficient for the isolation of a discrete population of stem cells in the embryonic somite that may represent the earliest developmental precursor to adult muscle multilineage stem cells.

  • 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.

  • Could MDMA Promote Stemness Characteristics in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells via mGlu5 Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors? 23508940

    Ecstasy, or 3, 4 (±) methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), is a potent neurotoxic drug. One of the mechanisms for its toxicity is the secondary release of glutamate. Mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) express only one glutamate receptor, the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGlu5), which is involved in the maintenance and self-renewal of mESCs. This study aims to investigate whether MDMA could influence self-renewal via the mGlu5 receptor in mESCs.In this expremental study, we used immunocytochemistry and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to determine the presence of the mGlu5 receptor in mESCs. The expression of mGlu5 was evaluated after MDMA was added to mESCs throughout neural precursor cell formation as group 1 and during neural precursor cell differentiation as group 2. The stemness characteristic in treated mESCs by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry was studied. Finally, caspase activity was evaluated by fluorescence staining in the treated group. One-way ANOVA or repeated measure of ANOVA according to the experimental design was used for statistical analyses.In this study mGlu5 expression was shown in mESCs. In terms of neuronal differentiation, MDMA affected mGlu5 expression during neural precursor cell formation (group 1) and not during neural precursor differentiation (group 2). MDMA (450 µM) induced a significant increment in self-renewal properties in mESCs but did not reverse 2-methyl-6(phenylethynyl) pyridine (MPEP, 1 µM), a non-competitive selective mGlu5 antagonist. Fluorescence staining with anti-caspase 3 showed a significant increase in the number of apoptotic cells in the MDMA group.WE OBSERVED A DUAL ROLE FOR MDMA ON MESCS: reduced proliferation and maintenance of self-renewal. The lack of decreasing stemness characteristic in presence of MPEP suggests that MDMA mediates its role through a different mechanism that requires further investigation. In conclusion, despite being toxic, MDMA maintains stemness characteristics.
