Lineage of radial glia in the chicken optic tectum. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
In many parts of the central nervous system, the elongated processes of radial glial cells are believed to guide immature neurons from the ventricular zone to their sites of differentiation. To study the clonal relationships of radial glia to other neural cell types, we used a recombinant retrovirus to label precursor cells in the chick optic tectum with a heritable marker, the E. coli lacZ gene. The progeny of the infected cells were detected at later stages of development with a histochemical stain for the lacZ gene product. Radial glia were identified in a substantial fraction of clones, and these were studied further. Our main results are the following. (a) Clones containing radial glia frequently contained neurons and/or astrocytes, but usually not other radial glia. Thus, radial glia derive from a multipotential progenitor rather than from a committed radial glial precursor. (b) Production of radial glia continues until at least embryonic day (E) 8, after the peak of neuronal birth is over (approximately E5) and after radial migration of immature neurons has begun (E6-7). Radial glial and neuronal lineages do not appear to diverge during this interval, and radial glia are among the last cells that their progenitors produce. (c) As they migrate, many cells are closely apposed to the apical process of their sibling radial glia. Thus, radial glia may frequently guide the migration of their clonal relatives. (d) The population of labelled radial glia declines between E15 and E19-20 (just before hatching), concurrent with a sharp increase in the number of labelled astrocytes. This result suggests that some tectal radial glia transform into astrocytes, as occurs in mammalian cerebral cortex, although others persist after hatching. To reconcile the observations that many radial glia are present early, that radial glia are among the last offspring of a multipotential stem cell, and that most clones contain only a single radial glial cell, we suggest that the stem cell is, or becomes, a radial glial cell. 相似文献

The intracellular signaling controlling neural stem/progenitor cell (NSC) self-renewal and neuronal/glial differentiation is not fully understood. We show here that Shp2, an introcellular tyrosine phosphatase with two SH2 domains, plays a critical role in NSC activities. Conditional deletion of Shp2 in neural progenitor cells mediated by Nestin-Cre resulted in early postnatal lethality, impaired corticogenesis, and reduced proliferation of progenitor cells in the ventricular zone. In vitro analyses suggest that Shp2 mediates basic fibroblast growth factor signals in stimulating self-renewing proliferation of NSCs, partly through control of Bmi-1 expression. Furthermore, Shp2 regulates cell fate decisions, by promoting neurogenesis while suppressing astrogliogenesis, through reciprocal regulation of the Erk and Stat3 signaling pathways. Together, these results identify Shp2 as a critical signaling molecule in coordinated regulation of progenitor cell proliferation and neuronal/astroglial cell differentiation. 相似文献

Fate determination of neural crest cells by NOTCH-mediated lateral inhibition and asymmetrical cell division during gangliogenesis 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Avian trunk neural crest cells give rise to a variety of cell types including neurons and satellite glial cells in peripheral ganglia. It is widely assumed that crest cell fate is regulated by environmental cues from surrounding embryonic tissues. However, it is not clear how such environmental cues could cause both neurons and glial cells to differentiate from crest-derived precursors in the same ganglionic locations. To elucidate this issue, we have examined expression and function of components of the NOTCH signaling pathway in early crest cells and in avian dorsal root ganglia. We have found that Delta1, which encodes a NOTCH ligand, is expressed in early crest-derived neuronal cells, and that NOTCH1 activation in crest cells prevents neuronal differentiation and permits glial differentiation in vitro. We also found that NUMB, a NOTCH antagonist, is asymmetrically segregated when some undifferentiated crest-derived cells in nascent dorsal root ganglia undergo mitosis. We conclude that neuron-glia fate determination of crest cells is regulated, at least in part, by NOTCH-mediated lateral inhibition among crest-derived cells, and by asymmetric cell division. 相似文献

During the neurogenic phase of mammalian brain development, only a subpopulation of neural precursor cells (NPCs) differentiates into neurons. The mechanisms underlying this selection remain unclear. Here we provide evidence that the Notch-Delta pathway plays an important role in this selection in the developing mouse telencephalon. We found that the expression patterns of the Notch ligand delta-like 1 (Dll1) and of the active form of Notch1 were mutually exclusive and segregated into distinct NPC subpopulations in the ventricular zone of the telencephalon. When Dll1 was overexpressed in a small, but not a large, proportion of NPCs, these cells underwent neuronal differentiation in vitro and in vivo. This Dll1-induced neuronal differentiation did not occur when cells were plated at lower densities in an in vitro culture. Importantly, conditional deletion of the Dll1 gene in a small proportion of NPCs reduced neurogenesis in vivo, whereas deletion in a large proportion promoted premature neurogenesis. These results support the notion that different levels of Dll1 expression determine the fate of NPCs through cell-cell interactions, most likely through the Notch-Delta lateral inhibitory signaling pathway, thus contributing to the selection of differentiating cells. 相似文献

The olfactory bulb, neocortex and archicortex arise from a common pool of progenitors in the dorsal telencephalon. We studied the consequences of supplying excess Notch1 signal in vivo on the cellular and regional destinies of telencephalic precursors using bicistronic replication defective retroviruses. After ventricular injections mid-neurogenesis (E14.5), activated Notch1 retrovirus markedly inhibited the generation of neurons from telencephalic precursors, delayed the emergence of cells from the subventricular zone (SVZ), and produced an augmentation of glial progeny in the neo- and archicortex. However, activated Notch1 had a distinct effect on the progenitors of the olfactory bulb, markedly reducing the numbers of cells of any type that migrated there. To elucidate the mechanism of the cell fate changes elicited by Notch1 signals in the cortical regions, short- and long-term cultures of E14.5 telencephalic progenitors were examined. These studies reveal that activated Notch1 elicits a cessation of proliferation that coincides with an inhibition of the generation of neurons. Later, during gliogenesis, activated Notch1 triggers a rapid cellular proliferation with a significant increase in the generation of cells expressing GFAP. To examine the generation of cells destined for the olfactory bulb, we used stereotaxic injections into the early postnatal anterior subventricular zone (SVZa). We observed that precursors of the olfactory bulb responded to Notch signals by remaining quiescent and failing to give rise to differentiated progeny of any type, unlike cortical precursor cells, which generated glia instead of neurons. These data show that forebrain precursors vary in their response to Notch signals according to spatial and temporal cues, and that Notch signals influence the composition of forebrain regions by modulating the rate of proliferation of neural precursor cells. 相似文献

Epigenetic alterations in cell-type-specific gene expression control the transition of neural stem cells (NSCs) from predominantly neurogenic to predominantly gliogenic phases of differentiation, but how this switch occurs is unclear. Here, we show that brahma-related gene 1 (Brg1), an ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factor, is required for the repression of neuronal commitment and the maintenance of NSCs in a state that permits them to respond to gliogenic signals. Loss of Brg1 in NSCs in conditional brg1 mutant mice results in precocious neuronal differentiation, such that cells in the ventricular zone differentiate into post-mitotic neurons before the onset of gliogenesis. As a result, there is a dramatic failure of astrocyte and oligodendrocyte differentiation in these animals. The ablation of brg1 in gliogenic progenitors in vitro also prevents growth-factor-induced astrocyte differentiation. Furthermore, proteins implicated in the maintenance of stem cells, including Sox1, Pax6 and Musashi-1, are dramatically reduced in the ventricular zones of brg1 mutant mice. We conclude that Brg1 is required to repress neuronal differentiation in NSCs as a means of permitting glial cell differentiation in response to gliogenic signals, suggesting that Brg1 regulates the switch from neurogenesis to gliogenesis. 相似文献

The adult glial progenitor cells were recently shown to be able to produce neurons in central nervous system (CNS) and to become multipotent in vitro. Although the fate decision of glial progenitors was studied extensively, the signals and factors which regulate the timing of neuronal differentiation still remain unknown. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying the neuronal differentiation from glial progenitors, we modified the gene expression profile in NG2+ glial progenitor cells using enhanced retroviral mutagen (ERM) technique followed by phenotype screening to identify possible gene(s) responsible for glial-neuronal cell fate determination. Among the identified molecules, we found the gene named non-metastatic cell 1 which encodes a nucleoside diphosphate kinase protein A (Nm23-M1 or NME1). So far, the Nm23 members have been shown to be involved in various molecular processes including tumor metastasis, cell proliferation, differentiation and cell fate determination. In the present study, we provide evidence suggesting the role of NME1 in glial-neuronal cell fate determination in vitro. We showed that NME1 is widely expressed in neuronal structures throughout adult mouse CNS. Our immunohistochemical results revealed that NME1 is strongly colocalized with NF200 through white matter of spinal cord and brain. Interestingly, NME1 overexpression in oligodendrocyte progenitor OLN-93 cells potently induced the acquisition of neuronal fate, while its silencing was shown to promote oligodendrocyte differentiation. Furthermore, we demonstrated that dual-functional role of NME1 is achieved through cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). Our data therefore suggested that NME1 acts as a switcher or reprogramming factor which involves in oligodentrocyte versus neuron cell fate specification in vitro. 相似文献

Both neurons and glial cells are derived from neuralprecursor cells in the ventricular zone during braindevelopment. The fate of the neural precursor cells isaffected by neurotransmitters such as glutamate. Inthis study, we examined glutamate-triggeredintracellular Ca2+ signaling in neural precursorcell lines by the calcium digital imaging method. Whenimmortalized primary-cultured neural precursor cellswere treated with glutamate, a subpopulation of thesecells showed an increase in intracellular Ca2+concentration. In an effort to determine the role ofthe glutamate-triggered intracellular Ca2+ signalin neural precursor cells, we tried to cultureimmortalized basal ganglial and hippocampal neuralprecursor cell lines in glutamate-free medium. Thehippocampal (MHP-2) cells became adapted to theglutamate-free medium, and when treated with glutamatethe adapted subline (MHP-2-E1) showed an increase inintracellular Ca2+ concentration. In contrast,the basal ganglial neural precursor cell lines failedto become adapted to the glutamate-free medium. Theseresults suggest that hippocampal and basal ganglialneural precursor cells differ in their cellularresponse to glutamate as an exogenous stimulus. 相似文献

Delta-Notch signaling controls the generation of neurons/glia from neural stem cells in a stepwise process 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

We examined the role of Notch signaling on the generation of neurons and glia from neural stem cells by using neurospheres that are clonally derived from neural stem cells. Neurospheres prepared from Dll1(lacZ/lacZ) mutant embryos segregate more neurons at the expense of both oligodendrocytes and astrocytes. This mutant phenotype could be rescued when Dll1(lacZ/lacZ) spheres were grown and/or differentiated in the presence of conditioned medium from wild-type neurospheres. Temporal modulation of Notch by soluble forms of ligands indicates that Notch signaling acts in two steps. Initially, it inhibits the neuronal fate while promoting the glial cell fate. In a second step, Notch promotes the differentiation of astrocytes, while inhibiting the differentiation of both neurons and oligodendrocytes. 相似文献

Summary We have established a multipotent clonal cell line, named MEB5, from embryonic mouse forebrains after the infection of a retrovirus
carrying E7 oncogene of human papillomavirus type 16. MEB5 cells proliferated in serum-free, epidermal growth factor (EGF)-supplemented
medium. They expressed markers for neural precursor cells (nestin, A2B5, and RC1) and did not express markers for neurons
(class III β-tubulin), astrocytes (glial fibrillary acidic protein), and oligodendrocytes (galactocerebroside). MEB5 cells
were stably maintained in an undifferentiated state with a diploid karyotype in the presence of EGF. When they were deprived
of EGF, about 50% of the cells died due apoptosis within 24 h. The remaining cells differentiated into neurons, astrocytes,
or oligodendrocytes within 2 wk. The newly developed cells with neuronal morphology were immunoreactive for γ-aminobutyric
acid and exhibited neuronal electrophysiological properties. When MEB5 cells were treated with leukemia inhibitory for 7 d,
they were induced to differentiate exclusively into astrocytes. These results inducate that MEB5 is a cell line with characteristics
of EGF-dependent, multipotent neural precursor cells. This cell line should provide a good model system to study the mechanisms
of survival, proliferation, and differentiation of the multipotent precursor cells in the central nervous system. 相似文献

Pluripotent human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can be efficiently directed to become immature neuroepithelial precursor cells (NPCs) and functional mature neural cells, including neurotransmitter-secreting neurons and glial cells. Investigating the susceptibility of these hESCs-derived neural cells to neurotrophic viruses, such as Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), provides insight into the viral cell tropism in the infected human brain. We demonstrate that hESC-derived NPCs are highly vulnerable to JEV infection at a low multiplicity of infection (MOI). In addition, glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP)-expressing glial cells are also susceptible to JEV infection. In contrast, only a few mature neurons were infected at MOI 10 or higher on the third day post-infection. In addition, functional neurotransmitter-secreting neurons are also resistant to JEV infection at high MOI. Moreover, we discover that vimentin intermediate filament, reported as a putative neurovirulent JEV receptor, is highly expressed in NPCs and glial cells, but not mature neurons. These results indicate that the expression of vimentin in neural cells correlates to the cell tropism of JEV. Finally, we further demonstrate that membranous vimentin is necessary for the susceptibility of hESC-derived NPCs to JEV infection. 相似文献

We isolated a chick homologue of BM88 (cBM88), a cell-intrinsic nervous system-specific protein and examined the expression of BM88 mRNA and protein in the developing brain, spinal cord and peripheral nervous system of the chick embryo by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. cBM88 is widely expressed in the developing central nervous system, both in the ventricular and mantle zones where precursor and differentiated cells lie, respectively. In the spinal cord, particularly strong cBM88 expression is detected ventrally in the motor neuron area. cBM88 is also expressed in the dorsal root ganglia and sympathetic ganglia. In the early neural tube, cBM88 is first detected at HH stage 15 and its expression increases with embryonic age. At early stages, cBM88 expression is weaker in the ventricular zone (VZ) and higher in the mantle zone. At later stages, when gliogenesis persists instead of neurogenesis, BM88 expression is abolished in the VZ and cBM88 is restricted in the neuron-containing mantle zone of the neural tube. Association of cBM88 expression with cells of the neuronal lineage in the chick spinal cord was demonstrated using a combination of markers characteristic of neuronal or glial precursors, as well as markers of differentiated neuronal, oligodendroglial and astroglial cells. In addition to the spinal cord, cBM88 is expressed in the HH stage 45 (embryonic day 19) brain, including the telencephalon, diencephalon, mesencephalon, optic tectum and cerebellum. BM88 is also widely expressed in the mouse embryonic CNS and PNS, in both nestin-positive neuroepithelial cells and post-mitotic betaIII-tubulin positive neurons. 相似文献
