Progranulin enhances the engraftment of transplanted human iPS cell-derived cerebral neurons

ABSTRACT: Cerebral organoids (COs) in cell replacement therapy offer a viable approach to reconstructing neural circuits for individuals suffering from stroke or traumatic brain injuries. Successful transplantation relies on effective engraftment and neurite extension from the grafts. Earlier research has validated the effectiveness of delaying the transplantation procedure by one week. Here, we hypothesized that brain tissues one week following a traumatic brain injury possess a more favorable environment for cell transplantation when compared to immediately after injury. We performed a transcriptomic comparison to differentiate gene expression between these two temporal states. In controlled in vitro conditions, recombinant human progranulin (rhPGRN) bolstered the survival rate of dissociated neurons sourced from human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cerebral organoids (hiPSC-COs) under conditions of enhanced oxidative stress. This increase in viability was attributable to a reduction in apoptosis via Akt phosphorylation. In addition, rhPGRN pretreatment before in vivo transplantation experiments augmented the engraftment efficiency of hiPSC-COs considerably and facilitated neurite elongation along the host brain’s corticospinal tracts. Subsequent histological assessments at three months post-transplantation revealed an elevated presence of graft-derived subcerebral projection neurons—crucial elements for reconstituting neural circuits—in the rhPGRN-treated group. These outcomes highlight the potential of PGRN as a neurotrophic factor suitable for incorporation into hiPSC-CO-based cell therapies.

Establishment of an ulcerative colitis model using colon organoids derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells

Project description:The etiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is complex, with much room for a greater understanding and development of improved therapies. Therefore, establishing a reliable IBD model is crucial for future advancements. In this study, human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell-derived colon organoids (hiPSC-COs) were treated with a combination of TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-1β (3 cytokines: 3CK), known to elevate in the serum of IBD patients. Inflammatory responses in stromal cells and damage to intestinal epithelial cells were observed in the 3CK-treated hiPSC-COs. Comparison of molecular signatures of 3CK-treated hiPSC-COs with those of ulcerative colitis (UC) patient’s colon revealed that 3CK-treated hiPSC-COs resemble UC patient’s colon. Furthermore, the elevated production of inflammatory cytokines observed in 3CK-treated hiPSC-COs was attenuated by treatment with tofacitinib. Our UC model will be an essential tool to understand its pathologic mechanisms and identify effective therapeutic approaches.

Electrophysiological Maturation of Cerebral Organoids Correlates with Dynamic Morphological and Cellular Development

Project description:Cerebral organoids (COs) are rapidly accelerating the rate of translational neuroscience based on their potential to model complex features of the developing human brain. Several studies have examined the electrophysiological and neural network features of COs; however, no study has comprehensively investigated the developmental trajectory of electrophysiological properties in whole-brain COs and correlated these properties with developmentally-linked morphological and cellular features. Here, we profiled the neuroelectrical activities of COs over the span of five months with a multi-electrode array (MEA) platform and observed the emergence and maturation of several electrophysiologic properties, including rapid firing rates and network bursting events. To complement these analyses, we characterized the complex molecular and cellular development that give rise to these mature neuroelectrical properties with immunohistochemical and single-cell transcriptomic analyses. This integrated approach underscores the value of COs as an emerging model system of human brain development and neurological disease.

The injury environment critically influences the brain-wide input connectome of transplanted neurons

Project description:Cell transplantation is a promising approach for reconstruction of neuronal circuits after brain damage. Transplanted neurons integrate with remarkable specificity into circuitries of the mouse cerebral cortex affected by neuronal ablation. However, it remains unclear how neurons perform in a local environment undergoing reactive gliosis, inflammation, macrophage infiltration and scar formation, as in brain trauma. To elucidate this, we transplanted cells from the embryonic murine cerebral cortex into stab-injured, inflamed-only, or intact cortex of adult mice. Brain-wide quantitative connectomics unraveled graft inputs from correct regions across the brain in all conditions, with pronounced quantitative differences: scarce in intact or inflamed brain, versus exuberant after trauma. In the latter, excessive synapse pruning follows the initial overshoot of connectivity resulting in only a few input connections left. Proteomic profiling identifies candidate molecules involved in the synaptic yield, a pivotal parameter to tailor for functional restoration of neuronal circuits.

Advanced Complexity and Short-Term Plasticity of Neural Activity in Reciprocally Connected Human Cerebral Organoids

Project description:An inter-regional cortical tract is one of the most fundamental architectural motifs that integrates neural circuits to orchestrate and generate complex functions of the human brain. To understand the mechanistic significance of inter-regional projections on development of neural circuits, we investigated an in vitro neural tissue model for inter-regional connections, in which two cerebral organoids are connected with a bundle of reciprocally extended axons. The connected organoids produced more complex and intense oscillatory activity than conventional or directly fused cerebral organoids, suggesting the inter-organoid axonal connections enhance and support the complex network activity. In addition, optogenetic stimulation of the inter-organoid axon bundles could entrain the activity of the organoids and induce robust plasticity of the macroscopic circuit. These results demonstrated that the projection axons could serve as a structural hub that boosts functionality of the organoid-circuits. This model could contribute to further investigation on development and functions of macroscopic neuronal circuits in vitro.

Single-cell sequencing of cerebral organoids with familial Alzheimer’s disease (AD) mutation in PSEN1 and non-demented control

Project description:We set up a 3D model based on iPSCs derived from patients with familial forms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and healthy non-demented control. We created cerebral organoids (COs), verified their ability to mimic AD in vitro, and used it to explore early events and the progression of AD pathogenesis. Our data reveal that despite similar expression of cell-type-specific genes during CO maturation in vitro, AD-iPSCs derived COs show limited tissue patterning and altered cellular development. These findings complement unique single-cell sequencing data of AD-iPSCs derived COs confirming this observation and uncovering that a sub-set of neurons in AD-iPSCs likely differentiates prematurely while at the same time retaining the expression of progenitor marker PAX6.

In vivo development and single-cell transcriptome profiling of human brain organoids in mouse corpus striatum

Project description:Human brain organoids are three-dimensional cultures that recapitulate in vivo cell diversity and organization, which provide a novel source for transplantation therapies of neurological disorders. However, some remaining technical problems including surgical lesions which still limit the application of brain organoid transplantation. Here instead of transplanting mature organoids, we performed development of organoids in vivo (IVD-organoids) by injecting small early organoids into the adult mice corpus striatum. Single-cell transcriptome analysis suggested that IVD-organoids contain pericyte-like and hippocampal cells. Similar to previous studies in cerebral organoid transplantation, IVD-organoids also showed reduced cellular stress and death. We further demonstrated that more choroid plexus (ChP) cells were generated in IVD-organoids, which were important for maintaining brain homeostasis. Together, our study provides a novel method that allows in vivo generation of human brain organoids, which may serve as a potential cell therapy for neurological disease involving different brain regions.

Impaired T3 transport and action underlies the pathophisiology of the Allan-Herdon-Dudley syndrome

Project description:Patients with mutations in the thyroid hormone (TH) cell transporter MCT8 gene develop severe neuropsychomotor retardation known as the Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS). It is assumed that this is caused by a reduction in TH signaling in the developing brain during both intrauterine and postnatal developmental stages, and treatment remains understandably challenging. Given species differences in brain TH transporters and the limitations of studies in mice, we generated cerebral organoids (COs) using human iPSCs from MCT8-deficient patients. We found that MCT8-deficient COs exhibit (i) alterations in early neurodevelopment, resulting in smaller neural rosettes with thinner cortical units, (ii) impaired T3 transport in developing neural cells, as assessed through deiodinase-3-mediated T3 catabolism, (iii) reduced expression of genes involved in cerebral cortex development, and (iv) reduced T3-inducibility of TH-regulated genes. In contrast, the TH-analogs 3,5-diiodothyropropionic acid and 3,3’,5-triiodothyroacetic acid triggered normal responses (induction/repression of T3-responsive genes) in MCT8-deficient COs, constituting a proof-of-concept that lack of T3 transport underlies the pathophysiology of AHDS, and demonstrating the clinical potential for TH analogues to be used in treating AHDS patients. MCT8-deficient COs represent a species-specific relevant preclinical model that can be utilized to screen drugs with potential benefits as personalized therapeutics for AHDS patients.

Cerebral organoid proteomics reveals signatures of dysregulated cortical development associated with human trisomy 21

Project description:This experiment is a label-free multidimensional LC/MS/MS analysis of drug treated cerebral organoids (COs), using Orbitrap Fusion mass spectrometer instrumentation. We generated COs from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from an individual with DS (female C2-4 line, referred to as T21 hereafter) and an unrelated euploid individual (female H50-1 line, referred to as D21 hereafter). The T21 organoids were treated with the drug harmine. Proteomics was used to identify proteins with differential expression in the harmine treatment and T21 vs euploid comparison.
