An aptamer-based bionic spinal cord scaffold elicits robust neurogenesis in situ after spinal cord injury in rats

ABSTRACT: 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.

Transcription profiling time series analyzing the molecular events in rat spinal cord sections following mechanical injury

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. Hypothesis: Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces a cascade of molecular events including the activation of genes associated with transcription factors, inflammation, oxidative stress, ionic imbalance, apoptosis and neuroregeneration which suggests the existance of endogenous reparative attempts. However, not all mechanisms following SCI are well known. Specific Aim: The goal of this project is to analyze the molecular events following spinal cord injury 1 cm above, below, and at the site of injury (T9), aiming at finding potential new targets to improve recovery and therapy.

The effects of scar resection in chronic complete spinal cord injury(SCI) and the effects of scar resection combined with decellularized hydrogel (scaffold)

Project description:This study examines the molecular effects of surgical scar resection in　complete chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) through RNA sequencing. Results show that scar resection alters gene expression, with downregulation of axonal growth inhibitors and upregulation of neuroprotective genes. Additionally, the application of a decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) hydrogel as a scaffold promoted angiogenesis. Gene Ontology analysis indicated enrichment of immune-related processes, suggesting that scar resection improves the spinal cord microenvironment for neural repair. These findings indicate the potential of combining scar resection with scaffolding to support recovery after chronic complete SCI.

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.

Transcription profiling time series of Rattus norvegicus raphe magnus and sensorimotor cortex samples following moderate spinal cord injury

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.

MHC-II immunopeptidome for CNS injury model

Project description:In homeostasis, because of the blood-brain barrier, immune cells rarely infiltrate the central nervous system (CNS). However, after spinal cord injury (SCI), many cells, including both myeloid and T cells, infiltrate the spinal cord. However, the role immune cells play in SCI remains controversial. We are curious whether after SCI there are self-peptides that are released and sensed by T cells that then modulate response to CNS injury.

Spinal cord regeneration at single-cell resolution restores walking after paralysis

Project description:Although axon regeneration can now be induced experimentally across anatomically complete spinal cord injury (SCI), restoring meaningful function after such injuries has been elusive. This failure contrasts with the spontaneous, naturally occuring repair that restores walking after severe but incomplete SCI. Here, we applied projection-specific and comparative single-nucleus RNA sequencing to uncover the transcriptional phenotype and connectome of neuronal subpopulations involved in natural spinal cord repair. We identified a molecularly defined population of excitatory projection neurons in the thoracic spinal cord that extend axons to the lumbar spinal cord where walking execution centers reside. We show that regrowing axons from these specific neurons across anatomically complete SCI and guiding them to reconnect with their appropriate target region in the lumbar spinal cord restores walking in mice. These results demonstrate that mechanism-based repair strategies that recapitulate the natural topology of molecularly defined neuronal subpopulations can restore neurological functions. Expanding this principle to different classes of neurons across the central nervous system may unlock the framework to achieve complete repair of the injured spinal cord.

Decellularized Spinal Cord Matrix Manipulate Glial Niche Alteration via Serglycin Mediated Signalling Pathway [scRNA-seq]

Project description:The decellularized spinal cord matrix (DSCM) provides the advantage in the translational potential for microenvironment replacement therapies to repair spinal cord injury (SCI) However, the cell type alteration in the SCI repairing niche is undefined. Using single cell transcriptome and bulk RNA-seq analysis, we showed that DSCM regulated cell fate changes in niches related to the multicellular model. This work opens the door for understanding the SCI repairing from a tissue niche perspective.

Small Extracellular Vesicles derived from four dimensional-culture of mesenchymal stem cells induce alternatively activated macrophages by upregulating IGFBP2/EGFR to attenuate inflammation in the spinal cord injury of rats

Project description:Effectively reducing the inflammatory response after spinal cord injury (SCI) is a challenging clinical problem and the subject of active investigation. This study employed a porous scaffold-based three dimensional long-term culture technique to obtain human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (hUC-MSC)-derived Small Extracellular Vesicles (sEVs) (three dimensional culture over time, the “4D-sEVs”). Moreover, the vesicle size, number, and inner protein concentrations of the MSC 4D-sEVs contained altered protein profiles compared with those derived from 2D culture conditions. A proteomics analysis suggested broad changes, especially significant upregulation of Epidermal Growth Factors Receptor (EGFR) and Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein 2 (IGFBP2) in 4D-sEVs compared with 2D-sEVs. The endocytosis of 4D-sEVs allowed for the binding of EGFR and IGFBP2, leading to downstream STAT3 phosphorylation and IL-10 secretion and effective induction of macrophages/microglia polarization from the pro-inflammatory M1 to anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype, both in vitro and in the injured areas of rats with compressive/contusive SCI. The reduction in neuroinflammation after 4D-sEVs delivery to the injury site epicenter led to significant neuroprotection, as evidenced by the number of surviving spinal neurons. Therefore, applying this novel 4D culture-derived Small Extracellular Vesicles could effectively curb the inflammatory response and increase tissue repair after SCI.
