Harnessing developmental dynamics of spinal cord extracellular matrix improves regenerative potential of spinal cord organoids

ABSTRACT: Neonatal spinal cord tissues exhibit remarkable regenerative capabilities as compared to adult spinal cord tissues after injury, but the role of extracellular matrix (ECM) in this process has remained elusive. Here, we found that early developmental spinal cord had higher levels of ECMproteins associated with neural development and axon growth, but fewer inhibitory proteoglycans, compared to those of adult spinal cord. Decellularized spinal cord ECM from neonatal (DNSCM) and adult (DASCM) rabbits preserved these differences. DNSCM promoted proliferation, migration, and neuronal differentiation of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and facilitated axonal outgrowth and regeneration of spinal cord organoids more effectively than DASCM. Pleiotrophin (PTN) and Tenascin (TNC) inDNSCMwere identified as contributors tothese abilities. Furthermore,DNSCMdemonstrated superior performance as a delivery vehicle forNPCs and organoids in spinal cord injury (SCI)models. This suggests that ECMcues from early development stages might significantly contribute to the prominent regeneration ability in spinal cord.

Unveiling the development specific regenerative potential of spinal cord: insights from extracellular matrix

Unveiling the Development Specific Regenerative Potential of Spinal Cord: Insights from Extracellular Matrix

Project description:Neonatal spinal cord tissues exhibit remarkable regenerative capabilities compared to adult tissues following injury. Although some cellular signaling pathways involved in the process have been identified, the specific role of extracellular matrix (ECM) responsible for neonatal spinal cord regeneration has remained elusive. Here we revealed that early developmental spinal cord contained a higher abundance of ECM proteins associated with neural development and axon growth but fewer inhibitory proteoglycans compared to adult spinal cord. Decellularized spinal cord ECM from neonatal (DNSCM) and adult (DASCM) rabbits preserve the major difference of native spinal cord tissues in both stages. Compared to DASCM, DNSCM promoted proliferation, migration, and neuronal differentiation of neural progenitor cells (NPCs), as well as facilitated the long-distance axonal outgrowth and axon regeneration of spinal cord organoids. Pleiotrophin (PTN) and Tenascin (TNC) in DNSCM were identified as contributors to the remarkable neural regeneration ability. Furthermore, DNSCM demonstrated superior performance when used as a delivery vehicle for NPCs and organoids in rats with spinal cord injury (SCI). It suggests that ECM cues derived from different development stage might contribute to the distinct regeneration ability of spinal cord.

Danio spinal cord injury

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.

Proteomics analysis of zebrafish spinal cord regeneration

Project description:Label-free mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics was applied to a larval zebrafish spinal cord injury model, which allows axon regeneration and functional recovery within two days (days post lesion; dpl) after a spinal cord transection in 3 day-old larvae (dpf). Proteomic profiling of the lesion site was performed at 1 dpl and 2 dpl as well as corresponding age-matched unlesioned control tissue (4 dpf as control for 1 dpl; 5 dpf as control for 2 dpl).

Direct Reprogramming of Human Astrocytes into Spinal Cord Organoids Facilitating Spinal Cord Regeneration

Project description:Human astrocytes have reported to reprogram into neurons, but they have yet to be induced to three-dimensional (3D) neural tissue for neural organogenesis. Here, we demonstrate a remarkable strategy for 3D organoid generation by direct reprogramming human astrocytes. By combining overexpression OCT4, suppression p53 and small molecules CHIR99021, SB431542, RepSox and Y27632, termed as Op53-CSBRY, we successfully reprogramed human astrocytes into neural ectodermal cells and further induced human 3D-brain organoid. Those organoids can be finally induced into spinal cord organoids by activating FGF, SHH and BMP signaling. The grafts of Human astrocyte derived spinal cord organoids (hADSC-Organs) can survived, differentiated into spinal cord neurons, migrated long distance, formed synaptic connectivity with host neurons, bridged complete injury spinal cord tissue in mice. This method indicates that human astrocytes could be directly triggered neural organogenesis, and may hold a great promising to support local astrocytes in situ organogenesis after brain damages, such as stroke and spinal cord injury.

RNA-Seq of human spinal cord organoids generated in Matrigel and alginate

Project description:This experiment compares the transcriptome profile of human spinal cord organoids generated from iPSCs in Matrigel, 1% alginate hydrogel, or 2% alginate hydrogel. Spinal cord organoids were generated from human iPSCs and then encapsulated in the respective hydrogels before further maturation. Organoids were harvested on days 30, 60, and 90 for each group. In addition to the differences between hydrogel groups, neuronal and glial markers at each time point were also assessed for the development of the organoids.

Differential Response Following Spinal Cord Injury in EphA4 Knockout

Project description:Mice lacking the developmental axon guidance molecule EphA4 have previously been shown to exhibit extensive axonal regeneration and functional recovery following spinal cord injury. To assess mechanisms by which EphA4 may modify the response to neural injury, a microarray was performed on spinal cord tissue from mice with spinal cord injury and sham injured controls. RNA was purified from spinal cords of adult EphA4 knockout and wild-type mice four days following lumbar spinal cord hemisection or laminectomy only and was hybridised to Affymetrix All-Exon Array 1.0 GeneChips. While subsequent analyses indicated that several pathways were altered in EphA4 knockout mice, of particular interest was the attenuated or otherwise altered expression of a number of inflammatory genes, including Arginase 1, expression of which was lower in injured EphA4 knockout compared to wild-type mice. Immunohistological analyses of different cellular components of the immune response were then performed in injured EphA4 knockout and wild-type spinal cords. While numbers of infiltrating CD3+ T cells were low in the hemisection model, a robust CD11b+ macrophage / microglial response was observed post-injury. There was no difference in the overall number or spread of macrophages / activated microglia in injured EphA4 knockout compared to wild-type spinal cords at two, four or fourteen days post-injury, however a lower proportion of Arginase-1 immunoreactive macrophages / activated microglia was observed in EphA4 knockout spinal cords at four days post-injury. Subtle alterations in the neuroinflammatory response in injured EphA4 knockout spinal cords may contribute to the regeneration and recovery observed in these mice following injury. Comparison was made between gene expression in wild-type and knockout samples both before and after injury. 3 replicates per group.
