במאמר זה, נציג שיטות לטווח ארוך הדמיה לחיות במבחנה phagocytosis assay באמצעות גלייה מטוהרים synaptosomes מצומדת מחוון ה-pH. אנחנו מראים כי בהשוואה מיקרוגלייה, האסטרוציטים בעלי קיבולת היבלעות והשפלה שונים במהלך phagocytosis של synaptosomes. בנוסף, הנתונים שלנו מראים כי מופרש אסטרוציט גורמים, אשר מכילים מולקולות...

גלייה, אשר מתייחסות הלא-טמפרמנט תאים במוח, הם סוג התא העיקריים במערכת העצבים המרכזית (CNS). בעבר, גלייה היו נחשבים תאים התומכים גרידא, בעיקר לשחק בתפקידים פסיביים בשמירה על הישרדות עצביים ומאפיינים סינפטית הבזליים. עם זאת, ראיות המתעוררים חשף כי גלייה ממלאים תפקידים פעילים יותר בהיבטים שונים של הנוירו-ביולוגיה, כגון שמירה על הומאוסטזיס המוח, מתווכים סינפסה היווצרות1,2,3 וסינפסה חיסול4,5, להתכוונן הפלסטיות הסינפטית6,7. גלייה ב מערכת העצבים כוללים האסטרוציטים, מיקרוגלייה oligodendrocytes להפוך. בין תאים אלה, האסטרוציטים מיקרוגלייה הוכחו ממלאים תפקידים phagocytic על ידי שתבלע הסינפסות4,5, מוות תאים8, פסולת עצבית9ו חלבונים פתוגניים, כגון בטא עמילואיד שלטי10,11. במוח המתפתח, האסטרוציטים לחסל סינפסות הגבי גרעין הברך הצדי (dLGN) עד MERTK ותלוי MEGF10 phagocytosis4. באופן דומה, מיקרוגלייה גם לחסל את הסינפסות מצופים C1q בשלבים התפתחותיים דרך המפל המשלים הקלאסית5. מעניין, הוצע כי פגמים סינפסה גיזום ניתן לאחד היזמים של מספר הפרעות נוירולוגיות. לדוגמה, הוכח כי מוטציות בגן רכיב המשלים 4 (C4), מה שמעלה גיזום סינפסה בתיווך המשלים על-ידי מיקרוגלייה, משויכים מאוד השכיחות של סכיזופרניה בני12. עיתון האחרונות הראו גם כי מסלול המשלים הקלאסית hyperactivated בשלבים חניכה של AD, גורם לאבדן מוקדם סינפסה זו מחלה13.
לעומת phagocytosis בתיווך מיקרוגלייה, אם phagocytosis בתיווך אסטרוציט תורמת החניכה, התקדמות של הפרעות נוירולוגיות שונות הוא פחות ברור. עם זאת, עיתון האחרונות עולה כי גורמים לשנות את הקצב של גיזום סינפסה נורמלי על ידי האסטרוציטים עלול לשבש את המוח הומאוסטזיס, לתרום הרגישות, פתולוגיה לספירה14. הקצב של גיזום סינפסה על ידי האסטרוציטים בעוצמה נשלטת על ידי ספקיות isomers, עם אלל מגן עבור המודעה (ApoE2) בחריפות שיפור הקצב ואת הסיכון אלל עבור המודעה (ApoE4) באופן משמעותי להורדת הקצב. יתר על כן, העכברים הטרנסגניים ביטוי ApoE4 שהצטברו C1q סינפטית הרבה יותר מאשר השליטה או עכברים ApoE2 14. נתונים אלו מראים כי ליקויי phagocytosis בתיווך אסטרוציט בתחילת המודעה המוח עלול לגרום ההצטברות של פסולת senescent מצופים C1q הסינפסות/סינפטית שמפעיל phagocytosis microglial בתיווך המשלים, נהיגה ניוון סינפטית . הקיבולת phagocytic לקוי של האסטרוציטים ב ApoE4 נושאות עשוי גם לתרום הצטברות הפלאק בטא עמילואיד במוח מושפע לספירה לא מבוקרת.
בנוסף, הוכח כי תאי גליה במוח דרוזופילה בגילאי לאבד את יכולת phagocytic בשל ירידה תרגום של דרייפר, homolog של Megf10 האסטרוציטים להשתמש עבור phagocytosing הסינפסות. שחזור דרייפר רמות הציל את יכולת phagocytic של תאי גליה, אשר מסומנת ביעילות פסולת עצב פגומים במוח בגילאי במידה דומה עד כדי כך במוח הצעיר, המציין כי הזדקנות-induced שינויים בקיבולת phagocytic האסטרוציטים עשוי לתרום להפרעה של המוח הומאוסטזיס15.
בהתבסס על הממצאים החדשים, להתכוונן מקיבולת האסטרוציטים phagocytic עשוי להיות אסטרטגיית טיפולית אטרקטיבי כדי למנוע ולטפל בהפרעות נוירולוגיות שונות. בהקשר זה, היו מספר ניסיונות לשפר את יכולת phagocytic של האסטרוציטים, לדוגמה, על-ידי גרימת לחומצי lysosomes עם חלקיקים חומצי16 , overexpressing גורם שעתוק EB (TFEB), אשר ניתן לשפר ליזוזום להן17. למרות נסיונות אלו, זה עדיין לא ברור איך האסטרוציטים ותאים microglial נבדלים קינטיקה phagocytic שלהם, אם אנחנו צריכים להגדיל או להקטין את קיבולות phagocytic שלהם למחלות שונות.
בנייר זה, אנו מציגים וזמינותו של הרומן במבחנה לגילוי מקיבולת האסטרוציטים phagocytic בזמן אמת. הנתונים מראים שונים קינטיקה של היבלעות והשפלה האסטרוציטים ו מיקרוגלייה. בינוני אסטרוציט ממוזגים (ACM), אשר מכיל גורמים המופרש מן האסטרוציטים, חיוני phagocytosis יעיל של האסטרוציטים והן מיקרוגלייה. יתר על כן, Megf10, קולטן phagocytic האסטרוציטים, על homolog של סיד-1 , דרייפר, ממלא תפקידים חיוניים phagocytosis בתיווך אסטרוציט8,18.

a novel in vitro live-imaging assay of astrocyte-mediated phagocytosis using ph indicator-conjugated synaptosomes

האסטרוציטים סוג התא העיקריים במוח, צור קשר ישירות הסינפסות וכלי הדם. אמנם היה נחשב microglial תאים תאים חיסוניים העיקריים של phagocytes רק במוח, מחקרים שנעשו לאחרונה הראו כי האסטרוציטים ישתתפו גם תהליכים phagocytic שונים, כגון סינפסה התפתחותיות לביעור ואישור של פלאק עמילואיד ביתא מחלת אלצהיימר (AD). למרות ממצאים אלה, את היעילות של אסטרוציט היבלעות והשפלות של המטרות שלהם לא ברור של מיקרוגלייה. חוסר מידע הוא בעיקר בשל היעדר מערכת assay שבו קינטיקה של phagocytosis אסטרוציט ו מיקרוגלייה-בתיווך דומות בקלות. כדי להשיג מטרה זו, פיתחנו לטווח ארוך הדמיה לחיות במבחנה phagocytosis assay כדי להעריך את יכולת phagocytic של האסטרוציטים מטוהרים, מיקרוגלייה. זה assay, זיהוי בזמן אמת של היבלעות והשפלה הוא אפשרי באמצעות pH מצומדת מחוון synaptosomes, אשר פולטים פלואורסצנטי אדום בהיר ב organelles חומצי, כגון lysosomes. Assay הרומן שלנו מספקת זיהוי פשוטה ויעילה של phagocytosis באמצעות הדמיה לחיות. בנוסף, זה וזמינותו phagocytosis במבחנה יכול לשמש כפלטפורמה ההקרנה כדי לזהות חומרים כימיים ותרכובות שניתן לשפר או לעכב את יכולת phagocytic של האסטרוציטים. כמו גיזום סינפטית תקלה והצטברות חלבונים פתוגניים הוכחו לגרום הפרעות נפשיות או מחלות ניווניות, כימיקלים, תרכובות לווסת את יכולת phagocytic של תאי גליה אמור לסייע בטיפול שונים הפרעות נוירולוגיות.

Protein kinase Cs (PKCs) are serine threonine kinases that play a central role in regulating a wide variety of cellular processes such as cell growth and learning and memory. There are four known families of PKC isoforms in vertebrates: classical PKCs (&alpha;, &beta;I, &beta;II and &gamma;), novel type I PKCs (&#949; and &eta;), novel type II PKCs (&delta; and &theta;), and atypical PKCs (&zeta; and &iota;). The classical PKCs are activated by Ca2+ and diacylclycerol (DAG), while the novel PKCs are activated by DAG, but are Ca2+-independent. The atypical PKCs are activated by neither Ca2+ nor DAG. In Aplysia californica, our model system to study memory formation, there are three nervous system specific PKC isoforms one from each major class, namely the conventional PKC Apl I, the novel type I PKC Apl II and the atypical PKC Apl III. PKCs are lipid-activated kinases and thus activation of classical and novel PKCs in response to extracellular signals has been frequently correlated with PKC translocation from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane. Therefore, visualizing PKC translocation in real time in live cells has become an invaluable tool for elucidating the signal transduction pathways that lead to PKC activation. For instance, this technique has allowed for us to establish that different isoforms of PKC translocate under different conditions to mediate distinct types of synaptic plasticity and that serotonin (5HT) activation of PKC Apl II requires production of both DAG and phosphatidic acid (PA) for translocation 1-2. Importantly, the ability to visualize the same neuron repeatedly has allowed us, for example, to measure desensitization of the PKC response in exquisite detail 3. In this video, we demonstrate each step of preparing Sf9 cell cultures, cultures of Aplysia sensory neurons have been described in another video article 4, expressing fluorescently tagged PKCs in Sf9 cells and in Aplysia sensory neurons and live-imaging of PKC translocation in response to different activators using laser-scanning microscopy.

In this video, we demonstrate visualization of PKC translocation in living cells using fluorescently tagged PKCs.

Time-lapse Live Imaging of Clonally Related Neural Progenitor Cells in the Developing Zebrafish Forebrain

Precise patterns of division, migration and differentiation of neural progenitor cells are crucial for proper brain development and function1,2. To understand the behavior of neural progenitor cells in the complex in vivo environment, time-lapse live imaging of neural progenitor cells in an intact brain is critically required. In this video, we exploit the unique features of zebrafish embryos to visualize the development of forebrain neural progenitor cells in vivo. We use electroporation to genetically and sparsely label individual neural progenitor cells. Briefly, DNA constructs coding for fluorescent markers were injected into the forebrain ventricle of 22 hours post fertilization (hpf) zebrafish embryos and electric pulses were delivered immediately. Six hours later, the electroporated zebrafish embryos were mounted with low melting point agarose in glass bottom culture dishes. Fluorescently labeled neural progenitor cells were then imaged for 36hours with fixed intervals under a confocal microscope using water dipping objective lens. The present method provides a way to gain insights into the in vivo development of forebrain neural progenitor cells and can be applied to other parts of the central nervous system of the zebrafish embryo.

The present video demonstrates a method which takes advantage of the combination of electroporation and confocal microscopy to perform live imaging on individual neural progenitor cells in the developing zebrafish forebrain. In vivo analysis of the development of forebrain neural progenitor cells at a clonal level can be achieved in this way.

Live Imaging of Dorsal Root Axons after Rhizotomy

The primary sensory axons injured by spinal root injuries fail to regenerate into the spinal cord, leading to chronic pain and permanent sensory loss. Regeneration of dorsal root (DR) axons into spinal cord is prevented at the dorsal root entry zone (DREZ), the interface between the CNS and PNS. Our understanding of the molecular and cellular events that prevent regeneration at DREZ is incomplete, in part because complex changes associated with nerve injury have been deduced from postmortem analyses. Dynamic cellular processes, such as axon regeneration, are best studied with techniques that capture real-time events with multiple observations of each living animal. Our ability to monitor neurons serially in vivo has increased dramatically owing to revolutionary innovations in optics and mouse transgenics. Several lines of thy1-GFP transgenic mice, in which subsets of neurons are genetically labeled in distinct fluorescent colors, permit individual neurons to be imaged in vivo1. These mice have been used extensively for in vivo imaging of muscle2-4 and brain5-7, and have provided novel insights into physiological mechanisms that static analyses could not have resolved. Imaging studies of neurons in living spinal cord have only recently begun. Lichtman and his colleagues first demonstrated their feasibility by tracking injured dorsal column (DC) axons with wide-field microscopy8,9. Multi-photon in vivo imaging of deeply positioned DC axons, microglia and blood vessels has also been accomplished10. Over the last few years, we have pioneered in applying in vivo imaging to monitor regeneration of DR axons using wide-field microscopy and H line of thy1-YFP mice. These studies have led us to a novel hypothesis about why DR axons are prevented from regenerating within the spinal cord11.
In H line of thy1-YFP mice, distinct YFP+ axons are superficially positioned, which allows several axons to be monitored simultaneously. We have learned that DR axons arriving at DREZ are better imaged in lumbar than in cervical spinal cord. In the present report we describe several strategies that we have found useful to assure successful long-term and repeated imaging of regenerating DR axons. These include methods that eliminate repeated intubation and respiratory interruption, minimize surgery-associated stress and scar formation, and acquire stable images at high resolution without phototoxicity.

An in vivo imaging protocol to monitor primary sensory axons following dorsal root crush is described. The procedures utilize wide-field fluorescence microscopy and thy1-YFP transgenic mice, and permit repeated imaging of axon regeneration over 4 cm in the PNS and axon interactions with the interface of the CNS.

Ex vivo Live Imaging of Single Cell Divisions in Mouse Neuroepithelium

We developed a system that integrates live imaging of fluorescent markers and culturing slices of embryonic mouse neuroepithelium. We took advantage of existing mouse lines for genetic cell lineage tracing: a tamoxifen-inducible Cre line and a Cre reporter line expressing dsRed upon Cre-mediated recombination. By using a relatively low level of tamoxifen, we were able to induce recombination in a small number of cells, permitting us to follow individual cell divisions. Additionally, we observed the transcriptional response to Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling using an Olig2-eGFP transgenic line 1-3 and we monitored formation of cilia by infecting the cultured slice with virus expressing the cilia marker, Sstr3-GFP 4. In order to image the neuroepithelium, we harvested embryos at E8.5, isolated the neural tube, mounted the neural slice in proper culturing conditions into the imaging chamber and performed time-lapse confocal imaging. Our ex vivo live imaging method enables us to trace single cell divisions to assess the relative timing of primary cilia formation and Shh response in a physiologically relevant manner. This method can be easily adapted using distinct fluorescent markers and provides the field the tools with which to monitor cell behavior in situ and in real time.

Live Imaging of Drosophila Larval Neuroblasts

Stem cells divide asymmetrically to generate two progeny cells with unequal fate potential: a self-renewing stem cell and a differentiating cell. Given their relevance to development and disease, understanding the mechanisms that govern asymmetric stem cell division has been a robust area of study. Because they are genetically tractable and undergo successive rounds of cell division about once every hour, the stem cells of the Drosophila central nervous system, or neuroblasts, are indispensable models for the study of stem cell division. About 100 neural stem cells are located near the surface of each of the two larval brain lobes, making this model system particularly useful for live imaging microscopy studies. In this work, we review several approaches widely used to visualize stem cell divisions, and we address the relative advantages and disadvantages of those techniques that employ dissociated versus intact brain tissues. We also detail our simplified protocol used to explant whole brains from third instar larvae for live cell imaging and fixed analysis applications.

Live Imaging of the Ependymal Cilia in the Lateral Ventricles of the Mouse Brain

Multiciliated ependymal cells line the ventricles in the adult brain. Abnormal function or structure of ependymal cilia is associated with various neurological deficits. The current ex vivo live imaging of motile ependymal cilia technique allows for a detailed study of ciliary dynamics following several steps. These steps include: mice euthanasia with carbon dioxide according to protocols of The University of Toledo&#8217;s Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC); craniectomy followed by brain removal and sagittal brain dissection with a vibratome or sharp blade to obtain very thin sections through the brain lateral ventricles, where the ependymal cilia can be visualized. Incubation of the brain&#8217;s slices in a customized glass-bottom plate containing Dulbecco&#8217;s Modified Eagle&#8217;s Medium (DMEM)/High-Glucose at 37 &#176;C in the presence of 95%/5% O2/CO2 mixture is essential to keep the tissue alive during the experiment. A video of the cilia beating is then recorded using a high-resolution differential interference contrast microscope. The video is then analyzed frame by frame to calculate the ciliary beating frequency. This allows distinct classification of the ependymal cells into three categories or types based on their ciliary beating frequency and angle. Furthermore, this technique allows the use of high-speed fluorescence imaging analysis to characterize the unique intracellular calcium oscillation properties of ependymal cells as well as the effect of pharmacological agents on the calcium oscillations and the ciliary beating frequency. In addition, this technique is suitable for immunofluorescence imaging for ciliary structure and ciliary protein localization studies. This is particularly important in disease diagnosis and phenotype studies. The main limitation of the technique is attributed to the decrease in live motile cilia movement as the brain tissue starts to die.

Using high-resolution differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy, an ex vivo observation of the beating of motile ependymal cilia located within the mouse brain ventricles is demonstrated by live-imaging. The technique allows a recording of the unique ciliary beating frequency and beating angle as well as their intracellular calcium oscillation pacing properties.

Novel Assay for Cold Nociception in Drosophila Larvae

How organisms sense and respond to noxious temperatures is still poorly understood. Further, the mechanisms underlying sensitization of the sensory machinery, such as in patients experiencing peripheral neuropathy or injury-induced sensitization, are not well characterized. The genetically tractable Drosophila model has been used to study the cells and genes required for noxious heat detection, which has yielded multiple conserved genes of interest. Little is known however about the cells and receptors important for noxious cold sensing. Although, Drosophila does not survive prolonged exposure to cold temperatures (&#8804;10 &#186;C), and will avoid cool, preferring warmer temperatures in behavioral preference assays, how they sense and possibly avoid noxious cold stimuli has only recently been investigated.
Here we describe and characterize the first noxious cold (&#8804;10 &#186;C) behavioral assay in Drosophila. Using this tool and assay, we show an investigator how to qualitatively and quantitatively assess cold nociceptive behaviors. This can be done under normal/healthy culture conditions, or presumably in the context of disease, injury or sensitization. Further, this assay can be applied to larvae selected for desired genotypes, which might impact thermosensation, pain, or nociceptive sensitization. Given that pain is a highly conserved process, using this assay to further study&#160;thermal nociception will likely glean important understanding of pain processes in other species, including vertebrates.

Live Imaging of Primary Cerebral Cortex Cells Using a 2D Culture System

During cerebral cortex development, progenitor cells undergo several rounds of symmetric and asymmetric cell divisions to generate new progenitors or postmitotic neurons. Later, some progenitors switch to a gliogenic fate, adding to the astrocyte and oligodendrocyte populations. Using time-lapse video-microscopy of primary cerebral cortex cell cultures, it is possible to study the cellular and molecular mechanisms controlling the mode of cell division and cell cycle parameters of progenitor cells. Similarly, the fate of postmitotic cells can be examined using cell-specific fluorescent reporter proteins or post-imaging immunocytochemistry. More importantly, all these features can be analyzed at the single-cell level, allowing the identification of progenitors committed to the generation of specific cell types. Manipulation of gene expression can also be performed using viral-mediated transfection, allowing the study of cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous phenomena. Finally, the use of fusion fluorescent proteins allows the study of symmetric and asymmetric distribution of selected proteins during division and the correlation with daughter cells fate. Here, we describe the time-lapse video-microscopy method to image primary cerebral cortex murine cells for up to several days and analyze the mode of cell division, cell cycle length and fate of newly generated cells. We also describe a simple method to transfect progenitor cells, which can be applied to manipulate genes of interest or simply label cells with reporter proteins.

Live imaging is a powerful tool to study cellular behaviors in real time. Here, we describe a protocol for time-lapse video-microscopy of primary cerebral cortex cells that allows a detailed examination of the phases enacted during the lineage progression from primary neural stem cells to differentiated neurons and glia.

In Vitro Phagocytosis of Myelin Debris by Bone Marrow-Derived Macrophages

Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) are mature leukocytes that serve a critical physiological role as professional phagocytes capable of clearing a variety of particles. Normally, BMDMs are restricted from the central nervous system (CNS), but following an injury, they can readily infiltrate. Once within the injured CNS tissue, BMDMs are the primary cell type responsible for the clearance of injury-derived cellular debris, including large quantities of lipid rich myelin debris. The neuropathological ramifications of BMDM infiltration and myelin debris phagocytosis within the CNS are complex and not well understood. The protocols described here, allow for the direct in vitro study of BMDMs in the context of CNS injury. We cover murine BMDM isolation and culture, myelin debris preparation, and assays to assess BMDM myelin debris phagocytosis. These techniques produce robust quantifiable results without the need for significant specialized equipment or materials, yet can be easily customized to meet the needs of researchers.

Assay Development for High Content Quantification of Sod1 Mutant Protein Aggregate Formation in Living Cells

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease that can be caused by inherited mutations in the gene encoding copper-zinc superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1). The structural instability of SOD1 and the detection of SOD1-positive inclusions in familial-ALS patients supports a potential causal role for misfolded and/or aggregated SOD1 in ALS pathology. In this study, we describe the development of a cell-based assay designed to quantify the dynamics of SOD1 aggregation in living cells by high content screening approaches. Using lentiviral vectors, we generated stable cell lines expressing wild-type and mutant A4V SOD1 tagged with yellow fluorescent protein and found that both proteins were expressed in the cytosol without any sign of aggregation. Interestingly, only SOD1 A4V stably expressed in HEK-293, but not in U2OS or SH-SY5Y cell lines, formed aggregates upon proteasome inhibitor treatment. We show that it is possible to quantify aggregation based on dose-response analysis of various proteasome inhibitors, and to track aggregate-formation kinetics by time-lapse microscopy. Our approach introduces the possibility of quantifying the effect of ALS mutations on the role of SOD1 in aggregate formation as well as screening for small molecules that prevent SOD1 A4V aggregation.

We describe a method to quantify the aggregation of misfolded proteins. Our protocol details lentiviral induced stable cell line generation, automated confocal imaging, and image analysis of protein aggregates. As an illustrative application, we studied the effect of small molecules in promoting SOD1 aggregation in a time- and dose-dependent manner.
