NG2 expressing cells (polydendrocytes, oligodendrocyte precursor cells) are the fourth major glial cell population in the central nervous system. During embryonic and postnatal development they actively proliferate and generate myelinating oligodendrocytes. These cells have commonly been studied in primary dissociated cultures, neuron cocultures, and in fixed tissue. Using newly available transgenic mouse lines slice culture systems can be used to investigate proliferation and differentiation of oligodendrocyte lineage cells in both gray and white matter regions of the forebrain and cerebellum. Slice cultures are prepared from early postnatal mice and are kept in culture for up to 1 month. These slices can be imaged multiple times over the culture period to investigate cellular behavior and interactions. This method allows visualization of NG2 cell division and the steps leading to oligodendrocyte differentiation while enabling detailed analysis of region-dependent NG2 cell and oligodendrocyte functional heterogeneity. This is a powerful technique that can be used to investigate the intrinsic and extrinsic signals influencing these cells over time in a cellular environment that closely resembles that found in vivo. 相似文献

Oligodendrocyte maturation is regulated by multiple secreted factors present in the brain during critical stages of development. Whereas most of these factors promote oligodendrocyte proliferation and survival, members of the bone morphogenetic protein family (BMPs) recently have been shown to inhibit oligodendrocyte differentiation in vitro. Oligodendrocyte precursors treated with BMPs differentiate to the astrocyte lineage. Given that cells at various stages of the oligodendrocyte lineage have distinct responses to growth factors, we hypothesized that the response to BMP would be stage-specific. Using highly purified, stage-specific cultures, we found that BMP has distinct effects on cultured oligodendrocyte preprogenitors, precursors, and mature oligodendrocytes. Oligodendrocyte preprogenitors (PSA-NCAM+, A2B5-) treated with BMP2 or BMP4 developed a novel astrocyte phenotype characterized by a morphological change and expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) but little glutamine synthetase expression and no labeling with A2B5 antibody. In contrast, treating oligodendrocyte precursors with BMPs resulted in the accumulation of cells with the traditional type 2 astrocyte phenotype (GFAP+, A2B5+). However, many of the cells with an astrocytic morphology did not express GFAP or glutamine synthetase unless thyroid hormone was present in the medium. The addition of fibroblast growth factor along with BMP to either oligodendrocyte preprogenitor or the oligodendrocyte precursor cells inhibited the switch to the astrocyte lineage, whereas platelet-derived growth factor addition had no effect. Treatment of mature oligodendrocytes with BMP elicited no change in morphology or expression of GFAP. These data suggest that as cells progress through the oligodendrocyte lineage, they show developmentally restricted responses to the BMPs. 相似文献

The function and origin of NG2+ cells in the adult brain are still controversial. A large amount of data is available which strongly indicates that adult NG2-expressing cells form a heterogeneous population, constituted by oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and a fourth novel type of glial cells named the synantocytes. Whether these two populations derive from the progressive maturation of perinatal NG2+ OPCs or are generated as separate populations is not known. We used organotypic cultures of newborn mouse cerebellum depleted, by anti-mitotic drug treatment, of their NG2+ cells with perinatal features (high proliferating rate and high oligodendrocytic differentiation ability). In these cultures, despite the lack of myelin after 14 days in vitro, numerous NG2+ cells remained. We show that these BrdU-resistant cells were able to slowly divide, as adult NG2+ cells do. Although many of these cells expressed O4, only a very small fraction of them was further engaged in oligodendrocyte lineage, as they had an extremely poor capacity to generate myelin sheaths to the Purkinje cell axons. These results support the view that at least two distinct populations of NG2+ cells coexist in the cerebellum from birth: one with the young OPC characteristics, another with adult NG2+ cell characteristics. Thus, a fraction of adult NG2+ cells do not derive from the maturation of perinatal OPCs. 相似文献

Regulation of oligodendrocyte development 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Oligodendrocytes are the cells responsible for the formation of myelin in the central nervous system. Recent studies demonstrated that cells of the oligodendrocyte lineage initially arise in distinct regions of the ventricular zone during early development. These cells or their progeny migrate to developing white matter tracts where they undergo the majority of their proliferation and subsequently differentiate into myelinating cells. Oligodendrocyte-precursor cell proliferation is regulated by a number of distinct growth factors that act at distinct stages in the lineage and the final number of oligodendrocytes in any region of the CNS is regulated by local influences. A density-dependent feedback inhibition of proliferation reduces the responsiveness of the cells to their growth factors and the final matching of oligodendrocyte and axon number is accomplished through the local regulation of cell death. In this review, we discuss the major factors that regulate three distinct stages in the development of the oligodendrocyte lineage: The initial induction of oligodendrocyte progenitors, the regulation of expansion and dispersion of the committed precursor cell population, and the final regulation of oligodendrocyte precursor number through the local inhibition of oligodendrocyte precursor proliferation and cell death. 相似文献

Oligodendrocytes are neuroglial cells responsible, within the central nervous system, for myelin sheath formation that provides an electric insulation of axons and accelerate the transmission of electrical signals. In order to be able to produce myelin, oligodendrocytes progress through a series of differentiation steps from oligodendrocyte precursor cells to mature oligodendrocytes (migration, increase in morphologic complexity and expression pattern of specific markers), which are modulated by cross talk with other nerve cells. If during the developmental stage any of these mechanisms is affected by toxic or external stimuli it may result into impaired myelination leading to neurological deficits. Such being the case, several approaches have been developed to evaluate how oligodendrocyte development and myelination may be impaired. The present review aims to summarize changes that oligodendrocytes suffer from precursor cells to mature ones, and to describe and discuss the different in vitro models used to evaluate not only oligodendrocyte development (proliferation, migration, differentiation and ability to myelinate), but also their interaction with neurons and other glial cells. First we discuss the temporal oligodendrocyte lineage progression, highlighting the differences between human and rodent, usually used as tissue supply for in vitro cultures. Second we describe how to perform and characterize the different in vitro cultures, as well as the methodologies to evaluate oligodendrocyte functionality in each culture system, discussing their advantages and disadvantages. Finally, we briefly discuss the current status of in vivo models for oligodendrocyte development and myelination. 相似文献

The hemopoietic (blood forming) system contains pluripotent stem cells able to give rise to a variety of differentiated progeny, including erythrocytes, granulocytes, megakaryocytes, monocytes, macrophages, and possible other cell types. Although a good deal is known about cell lineage relationships in the hemopoietic system, only limited information is available about the mechanisms regulating the proliferation and differentiation of the stem cells and their progeny. An approach to this latter problem has been provided by the develoment of new techniques for the cultivation of hemopoietic cells in short-term cultures. In such cultures, the proliferation and differentiation of hemopoietic cells can be studied under controlled conditions. Two areas of investigation show particular promise: elucidation of the role of the cell surface membrane in regulation; and the possible development, through a detailed investigation of the properties of leukoviruses, of new methods for the genetic analysis of hemopoietic cells. 相似文献

Acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) are present in high levels in most areas of the embryonic rodent brain. To begin to understand the role of these growth factors in brain development, the effects of aFGF and bFGF on dissociated cell cultures prepared from embryonic and neonatal rat brain were studied. Addition of aFGF and heparin or bFGF alone to serum-free cultures of the dissociated Embryonic Day (E) 14.5 mesencephalon stimulates cell proliferation, as judged by [3H]thymidine autoradiography, leading to a maximal 75-fold increase in the total number of cells. This effect is dose-dependent with half-maximal increases at concentrations of about 5-6 ng/ml of aFGF or bFGF and is inhibited by the FGF antagonist HBGF-1U. The effect of aFGF on cell proliferation in cultures prepared from E14.5 mesencephalon is similar to that in cultures prepared from E14.5 cortex. However, in cultures prepared from E14.5 rhombencephalon or diencephalon, the proliferative effect of aFGF is much reduced. In all brain areas studied, the proliferative effect of aFGF declines with increasing age. Immunocytochemical analysis of E14.5 mesencephalic cultures demonstrated that the aFGF-induced increase in cell number is due to the proliferation of A2B5-immunoreactive (IR) glial precursor cells, but not of neuronal precursors, fibroblasts, or microglial cells. Moreover, differentiated glial fibrillary acidic protein-IR astrocytes and 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphohydrolase-IR oligodendrocytes were not observed in cultures continuously treated with aFGF or bFGF, but were observed in high numbers after removal of the growth factors. These results suggest (1) that aFGF and bFGF are potent mitogens for glial precursor cells in all embryonic brain regions, (2) that the magnitude of the effects of aFGF depends on embryonic age and brain region, and (3) that both growth factors inhibit the differentiation of astrocyte or oligodendrocyte precursors. These observations made in vitro strongly support the hypothesis that FGF plays a critical role in gliogenesis and the timing of glial differentiation in the brain. 相似文献

Oligodendrocyte precursors arise in restricted regions of the developing neuroepithelium due to local signals that include sonic hedgehog. In the spinal cord the founder cells of the oligodendrocyte lineage develop in a specific domain of the ventral ventricular zone. These cells or their progeny subsequently migrate long distances to populate the entire spinal cord and myelinate axons in the peripheral presumptive white matter. The majority of migration in the oligodendrocyte lineage is accomplished by immature precursors, which then stop, proliferate and differentiate in the appropriate location. Several distinct mechanisms appear to regulate this migration. The initial dispersal of cells from the ventral ventricular zone is guided by chemorepellent cues including netrin‐1 present in the ventral ventricular domain. Migratory precursors are arrested in particular locations within the developing spinal cord as the result of the localized expression of the chemokine, CXCL1 by astrocytes. This chemokine, signalling through the CXCR2 receptor combines with PDGF to inhibit cell migration and enhance cell proliferation thereby facilitating the local expansion of the oligodendrocyte lineage and myelination of all relevant axons. 相似文献

Hypoxic‐ischaemic episodes experienced at the perinatal period commonly lead to a development of neurological disabilities and cognitive impairments in neonates or later in childhood. Clinical symptoms often are associated with the observed alterations in white matter in the brains of diseased children, suggesting contribution of triggered oligodendrocyte/myelin pathology to the resulting disorders. To date, the processes initiated by perinatal asphyxia remain unclear, hampering the ability to develop preventions. To address the issue, the effects of temporal hypoxia‐ischaemia on survival, proliferation and the myelinating potential of oligodendrocytes were evaluated ex vivo using cultures of hippocampal organotypic slices and in vivo in rat model of perinatal asphyxia. The potential engagement of gelatinases in oligodendrocyte maturation was assessed as well. The results pointed to a significant decrease in the number of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs), which is compensated for to a certain extent by the increased rate of OPC proliferation. Oligodendrocyte maturation seemed however to be significantly altered. An ultrastructural examination of selected brain regions performed several weeks after the insult showed however that the process of developing central nervous system myelination proceeds efficiently resulting in enwrapping the majority of axons in compact myelin. The increased angiogenesis in response to neonatal hypoxic‐ischaemic insult was also noticed. In conclusion, the study shows that hypoxic‐ischaemic episodes experienced during the most active period of nervous system development might be efficiently compensated for by the oligodendroglial cell response triggered by the insult. The main obstacle seems to be the inflammatory process modulating the local microenvironment. 相似文献

In many tissues, progenitor cells permanently withdraw from the cell cycle prior to commitment towards a differentiated phenotype. In the oligodendrocyte lineage a counting mechanism has been proposed, linking the number of cell divisions to growth arrest and differentiation. A direct prediction of this model is that an increase in the number of cell divisions would result in a delayed onset of differentiation. Since the cell cycle inhibitor p27Kip1 is an essential component of the machinery leading to oligodendrocyte progenitor growth arrest, we examined the temporal relationship between cell cycle withdrawal and expression of late differentiation markers in vivo, in mice carrying a targeted deletion in the p27Kip1 gene. Using bromodeoxyuridine to label proliferating cells, quaking (QKI) to identify embryonic glial progenitors, NG2 to identify neonatal oligodendrocyte progenitors, and myelin basic protein to label differentiated oligodendrocytes, we found an increased number of proliferating QKI- and NG2-positive cells in germinal zones of p27Kip1(-/-) mice at the peak of gliogenesis. However, no delay was observed in these mice in the appearance of the late differentiation marker myelin basic protein in the developing corpus callosum and cerebellum. Significantly, a decrease in cyclin E levels was observed in the brain of p27Kip1 null mice coincident with oligodendrocyte growth arrest. We conclude that two distinct modalities of growth arrest occur in the oligodendrocyte lineage: a p27Kip1-dependent mechanism of growth arrest affecting proliferation in early phases of gliogenesis, and a p27Kip1-independent event leading to withdrawal from the cell cycle and differentiation. 相似文献

The formation of CNS myelin is dependent on the differentiation of oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and oligodendrocyte maturation. How the initiation of myelination is regulated is unclear, but it is likely to depend on the development of competence by oligodendrocytes and receptivity by target axons. Here we identify an additional level of control of oligodendrocyte maturation mediated by interactions between the different cellular components of the oligodendrocyte lineage. During development oligodendrocyte precursors mature through a series of stages defined by labeling with monoclonal antibodies A2B5 and O4. Newly differentiated oligodendrocytes begin to express galactocerebroside recognized by O1 antibodies and subsequently mature to myelin basic protein (MBP)-positive cells prior to formation of compact myelin. Using an in vitro brain slice culture system that supports robust myelination, the consequences of ablating cells at different stages of the oligodendrocyte lineage on myelination have been assayed. Elimination of all OPC lineage cells through A2B5+, O4+, and O1+ complement-mediated cell lysis resulted in a delay in development of MBP cells and myelination. Selective elimination of early OPCs (A2B5+) also unexpectedly resulted in delayed MBP expression compared to controls suggesting that early OPCs contribute to the timing of myelination onset. By contrast, elimination of differentiated (O1+) immature oligodendrocytes permanently inhibited the appearance of MBP+ cells suggesting that oligodendrocytes are critical to facilitate the maturation of OPCs. These data illuminate that the presence of intra-lineage feed-forward and feedback cues are important for timely myelination by oligodendrocytes. 相似文献

A novel oligodendrocyte (OL)-specific cDNA was isolated from brain capillary endothelial cells and characterized. The cDNA encodes a protein of 1099 amino acids that contains a signal peptide and a transmembrane domain. The protein was expressed in mature OLs in vivo and in vitro cell cultures and was thus designated as mature OL transmembrane protein (MOLT). RT-PCR analysis showed that MOLT mRNA was expressed in brain, lung, pancreas, and testis. A polyclonal antibody raised against a part of the mouse MOLT reacted specifically with multipolar OLs possessing radially oriented processes that penetrated into the gray matter. More cells were detected in the white matter, and these had longitudinally oriented processes. In a rat OL lineage culture system, oligodendrocyte precursor cells did not initially produce MOLT mRNA and protein, but when they begun to differentiate into mature OLs, they started expressing MOLT. Consequently, MOLT may function as OLs become mature and may serve as a cell-surface marker for OL differentiation. 相似文献

Fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8) is a key molecular signal that is necessary for early embryonic development of the central nervous system, quickly disappearing past this point. It is known to be one of the primary morphogenetic signals required for cell fate and survival processes in structures such as the cerebellum, telencephalic and isthmic organizers, while its absence causes severe abnormalities in the nervous system and the embryo usually dies in early stages of development. In this work, we have observed a new possible therapeutic role for this factor in demyelinating disorders, such as leukodystrophy or multiple sclerosis. In vitro, oligodendrocyte progenitor cells were cultured with differentiating medium and in the presence of FGF8. Differentiation and proliferation studies were performed by immunocytochemistry and PCR. Also, migration studies were performed in matrigel cultures, where oligodendrocyte progenitor cells were placed at a certain distance of a FGF8-soaked heparin bead. The results showed that both migration and proliferation was induced by FGF8. Furthermore, a similar effect was observed in an in vivo demyelinating mouse model, where oligodendrocyte progenitor cells were observed migrating towards the FGF8-soaked heparin beads where they were grafted. In conclusion, the results shown here demonstrate that FGF8 is a novel factor to induce oligodendrocyte progenitor cell activation, migration and proliferation in vitro, which can be extrapolated in vivo in demyelinated animal models. 相似文献

We have previously shown that oligodendrocyte progenitor cells exhibit developmental switching between alphav-associated beta integrin subunits to sequentially express alphavbeta1, alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5 integrins during differentiation in vitro. To understand the role that alphavveta3 integrin may play in regulating oligodendrocyte progenitor cell behaviour, cells of the rat cell line, CG-4, were genetically engineered to constitutively express alphavbeta3 integrin by transfection with full-length human beta3 integrin subunit cDNA. Time-lapse videomicroscopy showed no effect of beta3 expression on cell migration but revealed enhanced proliferation on vitronectin substrata. Comparison of mitotic indices, as measured by 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine incorporation, confirmed that human beta3 integrin-expressing cells exhibited enhanced proliferation, as compared to both vector-only transfected, and wild-type CG-4 cells when switched to differentiation medium from growth medium, but only in cultures grown on vitronectin and not on poly-D-lysine. The effects on proliferation were inhibited by a function-blocking antibody specifically directed against the human beta3 integrin subunit. Human beta3 integrin-expressing cells also exhibited reduced differentiation. This differentiation could be reduced still further by a function-blocking monoclonal antibody against alphavbeta5 integrin, as could differentiation in the wild-type CG-4 cells. Taken together, these results suggest that alphavbeta3 integrin may regulate oligodendroglial cell proliferation and that both downregulation of alphavbeta3 integrin expression and signalling through alphavbeta5 integrin may be critical to continued differentiation in vitro. 相似文献

In this paper, we describe the use of a combination of cell culture techniques and limiting dilution analysis to determine the number of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells and the oligodendrocyte clone size in primary dispersed cultures of 20- to 21-day-old fetal rat brain. Single-cell suspensions (1,2,3 × 106 cells/ml) were plated in either microwell or 100 mm dishes. After 22 days in culture the number of differentiated oligodendrocytes was ascertained by determining the amount of myelin basic protein by radioimmunoassay. The total amount of myelin basic protein was the same in the two types of dish, indicating that proliferation and differentiation were unaffected when oligodendrocytes were grown in microwells. The fraction (F0) of microwells containing no oligodendrocytes was determined at each cell dilution. F0 decreased exponentially with increasing total cell concentration. The linearity of the plot of ln F0 versus cell number indicates that the number of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells is limiting. From the equation describing the Poisson distribution of progenitor cells in microwells we calculated that, at the time of plating, primary cultures of fetal rat brain contain one oligodendrocyte progenitor cell per 1.3 × 105 brain cells, or a total population of 300–500 progenitor cells per brain. The mean oligodendrocyte clone size was determined to be approximately 825 at 22 days and close to 2000 by 35 days in culture. Therefore, each progenitor cell must undergo approximately 11 divisions, on the average, during postnatal development. 相似文献

Macroglial cell development in embryonic rat brain: studies using monoclonal antibodies, fluorescence activated cell sorting, and cell culture 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Astrocytes, ependymal cells, and oligodendrocytes have been shown to develop on the same schedule in dissociated cell cultures of early embryonic rat brain as in vivo. Subsequent studies showed that there are two major types of astrocyte (type-1 and type-2), which, in cultures of perinatal optic nerve, develop as two distinct lineages. In such cultures, type-2 astrocytes and oligodendrocytes develop from the same, bipotential, (O-2A) progenitor cells, which differentiate into type-2 astrocytes in 10% fetal calf serum (FCS) and into oligodendrocytes in less than or equal to 0.5% FCS. In light of these findings, we now have extended our studies on macroglial cell development in rat brain and show the following: (i) The first astrocytes to develop have a type-1 phenotype, while astrocytes with a type-2 phenotype do not develop until almost 2 weeks later, just as in the optic nerve. (ii) Most importantly, type-2 astrocytes, like the other macroglial cells, develop on the same schedule in cultures of early embryonic (less than or equal to E15) brain as they do in vivo. (iii) By contrast, both oligodendrocytes and type-2 astrocytes develop prematurely in cultures of E17 brain, and FCS influences this development in the same way it does in perinatal optic nerve cultures. (iv) Type-2 astrocyte precursors are labeled by the A2B5 monoclonal antibody, as shown previously for oligodendrocyte precursors in brain and for O-2A progenitor cells in optic nerve. Taken together with our previous findings, these results suggest that oligodendrocytes and type-2 astrocytes in brain develop from bipotential O-2A progenitor cells, whose choice of developmental pathway and timing of differentiation depend on mechanisms that operate independently of brain morphogenesis. 相似文献
