Project description:We report the effect of cryopreservation on isolated microglia and macrophages from the brains of rhesus monkeys. At the time of necropsy, cells were isolated from the brain and either used fresh or cryopreserved. For single cell sequencing, isolates were purified for CD11b expression and captured and processed through the 10xGenomics platform following by sequencing. We find that cryopreservation altered the expression of approximately 2% of the genes. These were not enriched for any known microglia/macrophage set of differentially regulated genes, but was enriched in immediate early genes and the acute phase pathway. Assessment of the fresh and cryopreseved cells in comparison to a prior dataset from animals with encephalitis revelaed equal ability to detect differentially expresed genes. Thus, given the practical difficulty of freshly processing microglia from human and non-human primate brains for isolation and scRNAseq processing the same day, and the ability to archive sampoles for potential use in scRNAseq experiments, cryopreservation is an optimal choice for future analysis of these important brainn cells, and likely other cell types.

Project description:Microglia play a key role in brain development, normal homeostasis, and neurodegenerative disorders. Single-cell technologies have led to important findings about microglia, with many animal model studies using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), whereas most human specimen studies using archived frozen brains for single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq). However, microglia compose a small proportion of the total brain tissue; snRNAseq depletes expression of microglia activation genes that characterize many diseases. Here we examine the use of purified, cryopreserved microglia for scRNA-seq. Comparison of scRNA-seq on paired fresh and cryopreserved microglia from rhesus monkeys revealed a high level of correlation of gene expression between the two conditions. Disease-related genes were relatively unaffected, but an increase in immediate-early gene expression was present in cryopreserved cells. Regardless, changes in immediate-early gene expression are still detectable. Cryopreservation of microglia is a suitable procedure for prospectively archiving samples.

Project description:Preparation of primary microglial cultures from postnatal mice is tedious with a low yield, high variability and risk of astrocytic contamination. Microglia derived from embryonic stem cells (ESdM) have been suggested as alternative source, but it is unclear how closely ESdM resemble the molecular phenotype of primary microglia. Here, we performed a whole transcriptome analysis of ESdM in comparison to primary cultured and flow cytometry-sorted microglia and compared the microglial transcriptome to other cell types. Cultured microglia and ESdM were related to sorted microglia, but clearly distinct from other myeloid cell types, T cells, astrocytes and neurons. ESdM and primary cultured microglia showed strong overlap in their transcriptome. Only 144 gene transcripts were differentially expressed between both cell types, mainly derived from immune-related genes with a higher activation status of pro-inflammatory and immune defense genes in primary microglia compared to ESdM. Flow cytometry analysis of cell surface markers CD54, CD74 and CD274 selected from the microarray confirmed the close phenotypic relation between ESdM and primary cultured microglia. Thus, assessment of genome-wide transcriptional regulation demonstrates that microglia are distinct from other macrophage cell types and that mouse pluripotent stem cell-derived microglia are closely related to cultured postnatal microglia.

Project description:In order to evaluate the gene expression profile of retinal microglia cells in different age, we purified CD11b-positive microglia from the retinas of wild type C57BL/6 mice at 3, 12, 18, and 24 months age using cell sorting method with flow cytometry. Age-related genes from isolated retinal microglia were performed using 16 Affymetrix GeneChips of Mouse Exon 1.0ST Arrays. Gene expression level between consecutive age groups (i.e. between 3 and 12 months, 12 and 18 months, and 18 and 24 months) was examined to identify microglia relevant aging genes that demonstrated significant changes. We identified a total 719 genes that showed increasing or decreasing more than 1.5-fold change (p<0.05, one-way ANOVA) for at least one of the three inter age-group comparisons. These identified genes were subjected to a hierarchical cluster analysis to visualize trends in differential expression across individual biological repeats in the 4 age groups. The microglia cells were isolated from wild type C57BL/6 mice with microglia cell specific marker CD11b conjugated with FITC using flowcytometry sorting. The aging time point was designed as 4 groups: 3 moth, 12 month, 18 month and 24 month; each group includes 4 repeats. The total RNA was extracted from isolated retinal microglia cells and reverse transcripted to cDNA after amplification and labeling. The gene expression profile was detected with Affymetrix GeneChip of Mouse Exon 1.0ST Arrays

Project description:There is evidence that microglia interact with infiltrating Th1 and Th17 cells and this interaction results in mutual activation. However, the potential of a distinct cytokine milieu generated by these effector T cell subsets to activate microglia is poorly understood. In this study, we tested the ability of factors secreted by Th1 and Th17 cells to induce microglial activation. Interestingly, we found that only Th1-associated factors had the potential to activate microglia while the Th17-associated factors as well as direct contact of Th17 cells with microglia only had a minimal effect. Further Th1-derived factors triggered a proinflammatory M1-type gene expression profile in microglia Microglia harvested from mixed glial cultures were treated with supernatants from Th1- or Th17 cultures. Microglia cultured in medium was used as controls. At 16h post treatment RNA was isolated from the microglia and probed on Agilent´s murine 4x44k microarrays. RNA isolated from four independent experiments were used for the gene expression profiling. Microglia, Th1, Th17

Project description:We developed and validated a simple method for viable cryopreservation of whole blood, without any preprocessing, Simple prEservatioN of Single cElls (SENSE), with granulocyte depletion for generating high-quality single-cell profiles. We performed rigorous in-depth characterization of the SENSE method on clinical blood samples and compared it to the conventional multistep density-gradient isolation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) method. The SENSE method is an effective and simple solution for the cryopreservation of blood samples in clinics/labs and single cell profiles generation.
