Brain injury activates microglia that induce neural stem cell proliferation ex vivo and promote differentiation of neurosphere-derived cells into neurons and oligodendrocytes
(2010) In Neuroscience 171(4). p.1386-1396- Abstract
- Brain damage, such as ischemic stroke, enhances proliferation of neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) in the subventricular zone (SVZ) To date, no reliable in vitro systems, which can be used to unravel the potential mechanisms underlying this lesion induced effect, have been established Here we developed an ex vivo method to investigate how the proliferation of NSPCs changes over time after experimental stroke or excitotoxic striatal lesion in the adult rat brain by studying the effects of microglial cells derived from an in jured brain on NSPCs We isolated NSPCs from the SVZ of brains with lesions and analyzed their growth and differentiation when cultured as neurospheres We found that NSPCs isolated from the brains 1-2 weeks following...
