Properly committed neural stem cells constitute a promising source of cells for transplantation in Parkinson's disease, but a protocol for controlled dopaminergic differentiation is not yet available. To establish a setting for identification of secreted neural compounds promoting dopaminergic differentiation, we co-cultured cells from a human neural forebrain-derived stem cell line (hNS1) with rat striatal brain slices. In brief, coronal slices of neonatal rat striatum were cultured on semiporous membrane inserts placed in six-well trays overlying monolayers of hNS1 cells. After 12 days of co-culture, large numbers of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-immunoreactive, catecholaminergic cells could be found underneath individual striatal slices. Cell counting revealed that up to 25.3% (average 16.1%) of the total number of cells in these areas were TH-positive, contrasting a few TH-positive cells (<1%) in non-induced areas. The presence of dopamine in the conditioned culture medium was confirmed by HPLC analysis. Interestingly, not all striatal slice cultures induced TH-expression in underlying hNS1 cells. Common to TH-inductive cultures was, however, the presence of degenerating, necrotic areas, suggesting that factors released during striatal degeneration were responsible for the dopaminergic induction of the hNS1 cells. Ongoing experiments aim to identify such factors by comparing protein profiles of media conditioned by degenerating (necrotic) versus healthy striatal slice cultures. 相似文献

Using the retrograde axonic transport of horseradish peroxidase method the striatal neurons projections to substance nigra have been studied in rats. After peroxidase injection into substance nigra a considerable number of small and medium sized neurons (10-20 mkm) become labelled in the ipsilateral striatum. Large labelled striatal cells (20-25 mkm) have been found. Among labelled striatal neurons multipolar cells with triangular and oval body prevailed. The number of cells with elongated multipolar or spindle-shaped body was less. The data obtained disprove the conception that only large ("giant") neurons form the efferent striatal pathways to substance nigra. 相似文献

Huntington's disease (HD), which is caused by an expanded polyglutamine tract in huntingtin (htt), is characterized by extensive loss of striatal neurons. The dysregulation of type 2 transglutaminase (TG2) has been proposed to contribute to the pathogenesis in HD as TG2 is up-regulated in HD brain and knocking out TG2 in mouse models of HD ameliorates the disease process. To understand the role of TG2 in the pathogenesis of HD, immortalized striatal cells established from mice in which mutant htt with a polyglutamine stretch of 111 Gln had been knocked-in and wild type (WT) littermates, were stably transfected with human TG2 in a tetracycline inducible vector. Overexpression of TG2 in the WT striatal cells resulted in significantly greater cell death under basal conditions as well as in response to thapsigargin treatment, which causes increased intracellular calcium concentrations. Furthermore, in WT striatal cells TG2 overexpression potentiated mitochondrial membrane depolarization, intracellular reactive oxygen species production, and apoptotic cell death in response to thapsigargin. In contrast, in mutant striatal cells, TG2 overexpression did not increase cell death, nor did it potentiate thapsigargin-induced mitochondrial membrane depolarization or intracellular reactive oxygen species production. Instead, TG2 overexpression in mutant striatal cells attenuated the thapsigargin-activated apoptosis. When in situ transglutaminase activity was quantitatively analyzed in these cell lines, we found that in response to thapsigargin treatment TG2 was activated in WT, but not mutant striatal cells. These data suggest that mutant htt alters the activation of TG2 in response to certain stimuli and therefore differentially modulates how TG2 contributes to cell death processes. 相似文献

Embryonic cortical neural stem cells apparently have a transient existence, as they do not persist in the adult cortex. We sought to determine the fate of embryonic cortical stem cells by following Emx1(IREScre); LacZ/EGFP double-transgenic murine cells from midgestation into adulthood. Lineage tracing in combination with direct cell labeling and time-lapse video microscopy demonstrated that Emx1-lineage embryonic cortical stem cells migrate ventrally into the striatal germinal zone (GZ) perinatally and intermingle with striatal stem cells. Upon integration into the striatal GZ, cortical stem cells down-regulate Emx1 and up-regulate Dlx2, which is a homeobox gene characteristic of the developing striatum and striatal neural stem cells. This demonstrates the existence of a novel dorsal-to-ventral migration of neural stem cells in the perinatal forebrain. 相似文献

In addition to the medium spiny neurons the mammalian striatum contains a small population of GABAergic interneurons that are immunoreactive for tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), which dramatically increases after lesions to the nigrostriatal pathway and striatal delivery of neurotrophic factors. The regulatory effect of levodopa (L-Dopa) on the number and phenotype of these cells is less well understood. Eleven macaques (Macaca fascicularis) were included. Group I (n = 4) received 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6 tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) and L-Dopa; Group II (n = 4) was treated with MPTP plus vehicle and Group III (n = 3) consist of intact animals (control group). L-Dopa and vehicle were given for 1 year and animals sacrificed 6 months later. Immunohistochemistry against TH was used to identify striatal and nigral dopaminergic cells. Double and triple labeling immunofluorescence was performed to detect the neurochemical characteristics of the striatal TH-ir cells using antibodies against: TH, anti-glutamate decarboxylase (GAD67) anti-calretinin (CR) anti-dopa decarboxylase (DDC) and anti-dopamine and cyclic AMP-regulated phosphoprotein (DARPP-32). The greatest density of TH-ir striatal cells was detected in the striatum of the L-Dopa treated monkeys and particularly in its associative territory. None of the striatal TH-ir cell expressed DARPP-32 indicating they are interneurons. The percentages of TH-ir cells that expressed GAD67 and DDC was approximately 50%. Interestingly, we found that in the L-Dopa group the number of TH/CR expressing cells was significantly reduced. We conclude that chronic L-Dopa administration produced a long-lasting increase in the number of TH-ir cells, even after a washout period of 6 months. L-Dopa also modified the phenotype of these cells with a significant reduction of the TH/CR phenotype in favor of an increased number of TH/GAD cells that do not express CR. We suggest that the increased number of striatal TH-ir cells might be involved in the development of aberrant striatal circuits and the appearance of L-Dopa induced dyskinesias. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to investigate, whether dopamine D1 and/or D2 receptors are able to interfere with the ATP-induced increase of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in cultured striatal neurons identified by their morphological characteristics and their [Ca2+]i transients in response to a high-K+ superfusion medium. ATP appeared to release Ca2+ mostly from an intracellular pool, since its effect was markedly depressed in the presence of cyclopiazonic acid, which is known to deplete such storage sites [Rubini, P., Pinkwart, C., Franke, H., Gerevich, Z., N?renberg, W., Illes, P., 2006. Regulation of intracellular Ca2+ by P2Y1 receptors may depend on the developmental stage of cultured rat striatal neurons. J. Cell. Physiol. 209, 81-93]. The mixed D1/D2 receptor agonist dopamine increased the ATP-induced [Ca2+]i transients in a subpopulation of neurons. At the same time, dopamine did not alter the responses to K+ in these cells. The selective D1 (SKF 83566) and D2 (sulpiride) receptor antagonists failed to modify the effect of ATP, but unmasked in the previously unresponsive neurons an inhibitory and facilitatory effect of dopamine, respectively. A combination of the two antagonists resulted in a failure of dopamine to modulate the [Ca2+]i responses in any cell investigated. In conclusion, D1 and D2 receptors may modulate in an opposite manner the signalling pathways of P2Y1 receptors in striatal neurons and thereby alter their development/growth or their cellular excitability and/or the release of GABA from their terminals. 相似文献

A possible mechanism of participation of cholinergic striatal interneurons and dopaminergic cells in conditioned selection of a certain types of motor activity is proposed. This selection is triggered by simultaneous increase in the activity of dopaminergic cells and a pause in the activity of cholinergic interneurons in response to a conditioned stimulus. This pause is promoted by activation of striatal inhibitory interneurons and action of dopamine at D2 receptors on cholinergic cells. Opposite changes in dopamine and acetylcholine concentration synergistically modulate the efficacy of corticostriatal inputs, modulation rules for the "strong" and "weak" corticostriatal inputs are opposite. Subsequent reorganization of neuronal firing in the loop cortex--basal ganglia--thalamus--cortex results in amplification of activity of the group of cortical neurons that strongly activate striatal cells, and simultaneous suppression of activity of another group of cortical neurons that weakly activate striatal cells. These changes can underlie a conditioned selection of motor activity performed with involvement of the motor cortex. As follows from the proposed model, if the time delay between conditioned and unconditioned stimuli does not exceed the latency of responses of dopaminergic and cholinergic cells (about 100 ms), conditioned selection of motor activity and learning is problematic. 相似文献

Postsynaptic striatal neurodegeneration occurs through unknown mechanisms, but it is linked to high extracellular levels of synaptic dopamine. Dopamine-mediated cytotoxicity of striatal neurons occurs through two distinct pathways: autoxidation and the D1 dopamine receptor-linked signaling pathway. Here we investigated the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways activated upon the acute stimulation of D1 dopamine receptors. In SK-N-MC neuroblastoma cells, endogenously expressing D1 dopamine receptors, dopamine caused activation of phosphorylated (p-)ERK1/2 and of the stress-signaling kinases, p-JNK and p-p38 MAPK, in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Selective stimulation of D1 receptors with the agonist SKF R-38393 caused p-ERK1/2, but not p-JNK or p-p38 MAPK activation, in a manner sensitive to the receptor-selective antagonist SCH 23390, protein kinase A inhibition (KT5720), and MEK1/2 inhibition (U0126 or PD98059). Activation of ERK by D1 dopamine receptors resulted in oxidative stress and cytotoxicity. In cells transfected with a catalytically defective mutant of MEK1, the upstream ERK-specific kinase, both dopamine- and SKF R-38393-mediated cytotoxicity was markedly attenuated, confirming the participation of the ERK signaling pathway. Cell fractionation studies showed that only a small amount of p-ERK1/2 was translocated to the nucleus, with the majority retained in the cytoplasm. From coimmunoprecipitation studies, p-ERK was found to form stable heterotrimeric complexes with the D1 dopamine receptor and beta-arrestin2. In cells transfected with the dominant negative mutant of beta-arrestin2, the formation of such complexes was substantially inhibited. These data provide novel mechanistic insights into the role of ERK in the cytotoxicity mediated upon activation of the D1 dopamine receptor. 相似文献

Retinoids are produced by glia in the lateral ganglionic eminence and regulate striatal neuron differentiation 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

In order to identify molecular mechanisms involved in striatal development, we employed a subtraction cloning strategy to enrich for genes expressed in the lateral versus the medial ganglionic eminence. Using this approach, the homeobox gene Meis2 was found highly expressed in the lateral ganglionic eminence and developing striatum. Since Meis2 has recently been shown to be upregulated by retinoic acid in P19 EC cells (Oulad-Abdelghani, M., Chazaud, C., Bouillet, P., Sapin, V., Chambon, P. and Dollé, P. (1997) Dev. Dyn. 210, 173-183), we examined a potential role for retinoids in striatal development. Our results demonstrate that the lateral ganglionic eminence, unlike its medial counterpart or the adjacent cerebral cortex, is a localized source of retinoids. Interestingly, glia (likely radial glia) in the lateral ganglionic eminence appear to be a major source of retinoids. Thus, as lateral ganglionic eminence cells migrate along radial glial fibers into the developing striatum, retinoids from these glial cells could exert an effect on striatal neuron differentiation. Indeed, the treatment of lateral ganglionic eminence cells with retinoic acid or agonists for the retinoic acid receptors or retinoid X receptors, specifically enhances their striatal neuron characteristics. These findings, therefore, strongly support the notion that local retinoid signalling within the lateral ganglionic eminence regulates striatal neuron differentiation. 相似文献

Recent studies demonstrated that methamphetamine (METH) produces intracellular bodies which are reminiscent of those occurring during degenerative disorders. In vivo studies demonstrate the occurrence of these morphological alterations both in the dopamine (DA) neurons of the substantia nigra and striatal cells. These consist of neuronal bodies staining for a variety of antigens belonging to the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. The formation of these intracellular bodies both in the substantia nigra and PC12 cells depends on the presence of endogenous DA. In the present study, we analyze the mechanisms which lead to METH-induced intracellular bodies within non-dopaminergic striatal neurons. We found that METH is no longer able to produce inclusions in vivo, in striatal cells, when striatal DA is lost. Similarly, in vitro, in primary striatal cell cultures which do not possess DA, METH administration does not produce inclusions. On the other hand, administration of DA to striatal cell cultures produces neuronal inclusions and cell death, which are both related to the inhibition of the ubiquitin-proteasome system and activation of specific-DA receptors. In line with this, we produced subcellular alterations by administering dopamine agonists. 相似文献

Calcineurin is involved in the early activation of NMDA-mediated cell death in mutant huntingtin knock-in striatal cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Excitotoxicity has been proposed as one of the mechanisms involved in the specific loss of striatal neurons that occurs in Huntington's disease. Here, we studied the role of calcineurin in the vulnerability of striatal neurons expressing mutant huntingtin to excitotoxicity. To this end, we induced excitotoxicity by adding NMDA to a striatal precursor cell line expressing full-length wild-type (STHdhQ7/Q7 ) or mutant (STHdhQ111/Q111 ) huntingtin. We observed that cell death appeared earlier in STHdhQ111/Q111 cells than in STHdhQ7/Q7 cells. Interestingly, these former cells expressed higher levels of calcineurin A that resulted in a greater increase of its activity after NMDA receptor stimulation. Moreover, transfection of full-length mutant huntingtin in different striatal-derived cells (STHdhQ7/Q7 , M213 and primary cultures) increased calcineurin A protein levels. To determine whether high levels of calcineurin A might account for the earlier activation of cell death in mutant huntingtin knock-in cells, wild-type cells were transfected with calcineurin A. Calcineurin A-transfected STHdhQ7/Q7 cells displayed a significant increase in cell death compared with that recorded in green fluorescent protein-transfected cells after NMDA treatment. Notably, addition of the calcineurin inhibitor FK-506 produced a more robust reduction in cell death in mutant huntingtin knock-in cells than it did in wild-type cells. These results suggest that high levels of calcineurin A could account for the increased vulnerability of striatal cells expressing mutant huntingtin to excitotoxicity. 相似文献

Intrastriatal injection of quinolinate has been proven to be a very useful animal model to study the pathogenesis and treatment of Huntington's disease. To determine whether growth factors of the neurotrophin family are able to prevent the degeneration of striatal projection neurons, cell lines expressing brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), or neurotrophin-4/5 (NT-4/5) were grafted in the adult rat striatum before quinolinate injection. Three days after lesioning, ongoing cell death was assessed by in situ detection of DNA fragmentation. In animals grafted with the control cell line, quinolinate injection induced a gradual cell loss that was differentially prevented by intrastriatal grafting of BDNF-, NT-3-, or NT-415-secreting cells. Seven days after lesioning, we characterized striatal projection neurons that were protected by neurotrophins. Quinolinate injection, alone or in combination with the control cell line, induced a selective loss of striatal projection neurons. Grafting of a BDNF-secreting cell line pre-vented the loss of all types of striatal projection neurons analyzed. Glutamic acid decarboxylase 67-, preproenkephalin-, and preprotachykinin A- but not prodynorphin-expressing neurons were protected by grafting of NT-3- or NT-4/5-secreting cells but with less efficiency than the BDNF-secreting cells. Our findings show that neurotrophins are able to promote the survival of striatal projection neurons in vivo and suggest that BDNF might be beneficial for the treatment of striatonigral degenerative disorders, including Huntington's disease. 相似文献

Autism is thought to be a neurodevelopmental disorder with symptoms developing during neonatal neurogenesis in the subventricular zone (SVZ). Autism associated genes alter SVZ proliferation and cytoarchitecture, yet the response of the human SVZ in autism is unknown. Epilepsy drives neurogenesis in rodents, but it is unclear how epilepsy interacts with autism in SVZ responses. The striatal and septal SVZ derive from separate lineages in rodents and generate different interneuron types. Yet it is unclear if autism unevenly regulates the striatal and septal SVZ. The human SVZ was immunohistochemically examined post‐mortem from individuals with autism (n = 11) and controls (n = 11). Autism showed a lower cell density in the septal, but not striatal, SVZ hypocellular gap only in the absence of epilepsy. There was a decline in septal hypocellular gap cells with age in autism, but no correlation with age in controls. In contrast, PCNA+ cell numbers increased only in autism with epilepsy both in the hypocellular gap and in the ependymal layer on the septal but not striatal side. Ependymal cells also became GFAP immunoreactive in autism irrespective of epilepsy co‐morbidity; however, this only occurred on the striatal side. In examining these questions we also discovered a subset of ependymal, astrocyte ribbon and RMS cells which express PCNA and Ki67, PLP, and α‐tubulin. These results are the first example of a neuropsychiatric disease differentially affecting the septal and striatal SVZ. Altered cell density in the hypocellular gap and proliferation marker expression suggest individuals with autism may follow a different growth‐trajectory. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An HSV-1 Vector Expressing Tyrosine Hydroxylase Causes Production and Release of l-DOPA from Cultured Rat Striatal Cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Abstract: In this report we demonstrate that a defective herpes simplex virus type one (HSV-1) vector can express enzymatically active tyrosine hydroxylase in cultured striatal cells that are thereby converted into l -DOPA-producing cells. A human tyrosine hydroxylase cDNA (form II) was inserted into an HSV-1 vector (pHSVth) and packaged into virus particles using an HSV-1 strain 17 mutant in the immediate early 3 gene (either ts K or D30EBA) as helper virus. Cultured fibroblasts were infected with pHSVth and 1 day later tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity and tyrosine hydroxylase enzyme activity were observed. The tyrosine hydroxylase enzyme activity directed the production of l -DOPA. pHSVth infection of striatal cells in dissociated cell culture resulted in expression of tyrosine hydroxylase RNA and tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity. Release of l -DOPA and low levels of dopamine were observed from cells in pHSVth-infected striatal cultures. Expression of tyrosine hydroxylase and release of catecholamines were maintained for at least 1 week after infection. 相似文献

BackgroundCell replacement therapy (CRT) for Huntington disease (HD) requires a source of striatal (STR) progenitors capable of restoring the function lost due to STR degeneration. Authentic STR progenitors can be collected from the fetal putative striatum, or whole ganglionic eminence (WGE), but these tissues remain impractical for widespread clinical application, and alternative donor sources are required. Here we begin exploring the possibility that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) derived from WGE may retain an epigenetic memory of their tissue of origin, which could enhance their ability to differentiate into STR cells.ResultsWe generate four iPSC lines from human WGE (hWGE) and establish that they have a capacity similar to human embryonic stem cells with regard to their ability to differentiate toward an STR phenotype, as measured by expression and demethylation of key STR genes, while maintaining an overall different methylome. Finally, we demonstrate that these STR-differentiated hWGE iPSCs share characteristics with hWGE (i.e., authentic STR tissues) both in vitro and following transplantation into an HD model. Overall, iPSCs derived from human WGE show promise as a donor source for CRT for HD. 相似文献
