Project description:Astrocytes were purified from mouse cortices and human cortex tissue by immunopanning with HepaCAM. All treatments were proceeded on 3DIV in serum-free medium. Astrocytes were treated by TNFα for 48hr, by Poly I:C for 72hr, or by hypoxia for 72hr. Acutely purified atrocytes RNA was harvest immediately after HepaCAM immunopanning. Serum selected astrocytes RNA was collected after 4-6 days culturing in serum medium. Serum-free cultured astrocytes RNA was collected on 5-6 DIV. Serum-selection purified human astrocytes were transplanted into P2-11 Rag2 immunodeficient mouse brains, and after about 8 months, transplanted human and host mouse astocytes RNA was collected acutely on HepaCAM immunopanning dish.

Project description:Mutation in TDP-43 is causative to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). TDP-43 is a multifunctional ribonucleoprotein and is reproted to regulate thousands of genes in neurons, but how astrocytes contribute to TDP-43 pathogenesis is not known. This study examined how mutant TDP-43 in astrocytes kills motor neurons and causes ALS phenotypes. Primary astrocytes were isolated from transgenic rats expressing mutant TDP-43 or from control rats without mutant TDP-43 expression. Cultured astrocytes were induced to express mutant human TDP-43 and their gene expression profiles were determined by microarray assays. Microarray analysis revealed that hundreds of genes were altered in astrocytes in response to mutant TDP-43 expression. As mutant TDP-43 transgene is under the control of tetracycline-regulated pomoter elements (TRE), mutant TDP-43 expression is subjected to Doxycline regulation. Astrocytes isolated from GFAP-tTA/TRE-TDP43M337V rats were desiginated as M337V groups and astrocytes isolated from GFAP-tTA single transgenic rats were desiginated as tTA control groups. Total RNA was isolated from cultured astrocytes at varying times (3, 4, or 6 days after Dox withdrawal) after mutant TDP-43 was induced in astrocytes. Upon mutant TDP-43 induction in astroyctes, gene expression profiles in astroyctes were determined by Illumina Direct Hybridization Assay and compared between tTA and M337V groups at the varying time points of mutant TDP-43 induction.

Project description:Organoid technologies provide an accessible system in which to examine the generation, self-organization,and 3-dimensional cellular interactions during development of the human cerebral cortex. However, oligodendrocytes, the myelinating glia of the central nervous system and third major neural cell type, are conspicuously absent from current protocols. Here we reproducibly generate human oligodendrocytes and myelin in pluripotent stem cell-derived cortical spheroids. Transcriptional and immunohistochemical analysis of the spheroids demonstrates molecular features consistent with maturing human oligodendrocytes within 14 weeks of culture, including expression of MyRF, PLP1, and MBP proteins. Histological analysis by electron microscopy shows initial wrapping of human neuronal axons with myelin by 20 weeks and maturation to compact myelin by 30 weeks in culture. Treatment of spheroids with previously identified promyelinating drugs enhances the rate and extent of human oligodendrocyte generation and myelination. Furthermore, generation of spheroids from patients with a severe genetic myelin disorder, Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease, demonstrates the ability to recapitulate human disease phenotypes, which were in turn improved with both pharmacologic and CRISPR-based approaches. Collectively, these 3-dimensional, multi-lineage cortical spheroids provide a versatile platform to observe and perturb the complex cellular interactions that occur during developmental myelination of the brain and offer new opportunities for disease modeling and therapeutic development in human tissue.

Project description:Astrocytes influence neuronal maturation and function by providing trophic support, regulating the extracellular environment, and modulating signaling at synapses. The emergence of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology offers a human system with which to validate and re-evaluate insights from animal studies. Here, we set out to examine interactions between human astrocytes and neurons derived from a common cortical progenitor pool, thereby recapitulating aspects of in vivo cortical development. We show that the cortical iPSC-derived astrocytes exhibit many of the molecular and functional hallmarks of astrocytes. Furthermore, optogenetic and electrophysiological co-culture experiments reveal that the iPSC-astrocytes can actively modulate ongoing synaptic transmission and exert pro-maturational effects upon developing networks of iPSC-derived cortical neurons. Finally, transcriptomic analyses implicate synapse-associated extracellular signaling in the astrocytes' pro-maturational effects upon the iPSC-derived neurons. This work helps lay the foundation for future investigations into astrocyte-to-neuron interactions in human health and disease.

Project description:Comparison of expression data of rat forebrain astrocytes from P1, P7 acutely isolated by immunopanning or cultured with astrocytes prepared by McCarthy and de Vellis' (1980) method. Elucidating the genes induced by serum in immunopannedrat astrocytes. Three biological replicates for each sample were done. MD-astrocytes were prepared as described in McCarthy and de Vellis 1980 and harvested for mRNA after 7DIV. IP-astrocytes were isolated from P1 or P7 Sprague Dawley rats and processed for RNA immediately (IP-astrocytes P1/P7), or cultured for 7 days in HBEGF before harvesting (Cult. IP-astrocytes P1/P7). For the serum studies, we plated IP-astrocytes P7 in MD-astrocyte media containing 10% fetal calf serum immediately after isolation and cultured them for 7 days. After 7 days, the cultures were either processed for total RNA or washed 3x with dPBS and astrocyte base media with HBEGF was added. The cells were cultured for an additional 7 days and then processed for RNA. We isolated total RNA with the QIAshredder and Qiagen RNeasy Mini Kit. We used the 3’IVT Express kit for preparation of the RNA and the Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array chip (Affymetrix, Santa Clara). RT-PCR was used to elucidate the level of contamination in each cell sample.

Project description:Bulk RNA-sequencing of astrocytes in the APP NL-F and APP PS1 models of ß-amyloidopathy, in which aspects of AD-related pathology progress at different speed, shows age-dependent gene expression changes. However, bulk RNA-seq does not provide insight into the heterogeneity of expression within this cell type, particularly relevant for such models, where reactive astrogliosis is most prominent in the vicinity of plaques. To investigate astrocyte heterogeneity in ß-amyloidopathy models, we thus performed single cell RNA-sequencing on astrocytes separated by FACS.
