本文提出了一种高效分离高纯度未成熟小鼠少突胶质培养的方法。与以前发布的协议39、40相比, 此方法产生了更高的纯度, 具有低得多的 GFAP 阳性星形胶质细胞和其他非特征细胞的极低百分比。重要的是要指出, 这些是未成熟的生命线行动已经致力于 oligodendroglial 血统。因此, 这些细胞对于研究分化的早期阶段是不有用的。
Dincman 协议40的一项修改是从我们的扩散介质中去除碱性成纤维细胞生长因子 (bFGF)。据报道,体外, bFGF 作为一个强大的有丝分裂因子, 不仅抑制 OPCs 的分化, 但也减少进程的数量46,47。此外, bFGF 增加了 oligodendroglial 谱系48传代细胞的少突胶质分化和增殖。因此, 在 Dincman 研究40中观察到的 O4+单元数的减少和 A2B5+和 NG2+单元格数目的增加是合理的, 这可能是由于 bFGF 在培养中的作用。
尽管使用 O4 绑定作为隔离单元格的方法, 但只有59% 的单元格在 1DIV O4+ 。这些结果在质量上类似于 Dincman 和同事40 , 他们发现使用 O4 绑定进行隔离时, 在 1DIV O4+的单元格略少于50%。结果表明, 血小板生长因子延迟有丝分裂后的发展通过瞬态恢复 O4+GalC 祖 A2B5 +O4-前祖像细胞, 随后分化, 即使在继续存在的血小板形成49. 因此, 很可能在第一天的扩散过程中, 在体外中, 一些未成熟的苏丹生命线行动可能会经历从 O4+NG2+到 O4 NG2+的逆转, 同时仍保留承诺少突胶质血统。此假说由 Dincman 的发现40支持, 即在隔离大约80% 的单元格 O4+后立即进行。
在 3DIV, 此协议产生比其他39、40所描述的更高的 OL 纯度, 尽管我们没有对它们的方法进行头部与头部的比较。与 Dincman et . 的协议比较40, 我们的文化中的 GFAP 阳性细胞数量越少, 可能是由于扩散媒介中没有生长蛋白的缘故。金刚砂和 Dugas 协议39依赖于细胞通过培养皿的连续通道;星形胶质细胞可以很容易地连接到培养皿50 , 并可以在每个连续通道的细胞在 immunopanning 协议期间进行。所提出的方法不冒险引入污染的星形胶质细胞在我们的纯化分数。
我们的改进方法比其他两个要快4小时。我们通过消除其他协议所包含的不必要步骤和试剂来实现这一目标。例如, 与 Dincman 协议40(需要5-6 小时) 相比, 我们省略了用于神经组织离解的工具包, 以及用大鼠抗鼠 IgM 珠子对 OL 细胞悬浮的孵化, 以去除死细胞。相反, 我们进行了小鼠大脑皮层与木瓜蛋白酶的分离, 死细胞通过执行低速 centrifugations (200 x g) 去除。
从金刚砂协议39的一个主要修改, 大约需要9小时, 是删除 immunopanning 选择和取消对直接 O2/CO2线的要求, 用于在组织中预平衡木瓜蛋白酶缓冲消化。相反, 我们在 CO2孵化器中使用了磁选择和直接孵化小鼠大脑皮层和木瓜蛋白酶缓冲的组合。
虽然没有直接测试在本研究中, anti-O4 微球也可以被用来分离从大鼠, 人类和转基因小鼠脑组织的生命线。这突出了技术的通用性, 使用多个组织来源的生命线行动隔离, 并有可能造福研究实验室感兴趣的工作, 从除鼠标以外的来源。
总之, 本研究中所描述的改进的 OPC 隔离方法提供了一种快速而具体的选择, 以获得可用于髓鞘形成和脱髓鞘疾病研究的原发性小鼠少突胶质。

少突胶质 (生命线) 是中枢神经系统 (CNS)1 的 myelinating 细胞。在严格调节的环境中, 主少突胶质的分离和培养是体外研究 oligodendroglia 的重要工具, 也是脱髓鞘疾病 (如多发性硬化症) 的生物学基础2.这需要一个高效且健壮的少突胶质隔离和区域性方法3。在本研究中, 我们利用了一个独特的少突胶质细胞表面标记的表达, 以实现一个快速和具体的改进的隔离技术。
已经确定了四个不同的少突胶质成熟阶段, 每一个发育阶段都表现出独特的细胞表面标记(图 1)。这些单元格表面标记可以通过特定的抗体4、5识别, 并可用于在特定阶段隔离生命线。在第一阶段, 少突胶质前体细胞 (OPCs) 有能力增殖, 迁移, 并明确表达血小板衍生生长因子受体 (血小板 Rα)6, 苷 A2B5, 蛋白多糖NG27, 8, 聚唾液酸-神经细胞黏附分子9和脂肪酸结合蛋白 7 (FABP7) 10. OPCs 具有双极性形态学, 细胞体的对立两极产生的短过程很少, 这是神经前体细胞11的特征。

在第二阶段, OPCs 产生 preoligodendrocytes 和表达的细胞膜不仅 OPC 标记, 而且 sulfatide (硫酸 galactolipid) 承认 O4 抗体12,13, GPR17 蛋白14,一直持续到未成熟的少突胶质 (OL) 阶段。在这个阶段, preoligodendrocytes 扩展多极短过程。Preoligodendrocytes 是大鼠和鼠脑白质中 2 (P2) 的主要 OL 阶段, 其小种群为未成熟的生命线15。
在第三阶段, 未成熟的生命线继续表达 O4, 失去 A2B5 和 NG2 标记的表达, 并开始表达 galactocerebroside C16。在这个阶段, 苏丹生命线行动致力于 oligodendroglial 谱系, 成为后有丝分裂细胞与长分支分支17,18。未成熟的 OL 构成80% 以上的啮齿动物白色物质在 P7 和此时第一个 MBP+单元格被观察15,19,20,21。因此, 在 P7 中分离生命线能保证细胞高产。
在 OL 发育的最后和第四阶段, 成熟的 myelinating 蛋白 (髓鞘碱性蛋白 (MBP), proteolipid 蛋白 (), 髓鞘相关糖蛋白 (MAG) 和髓鞘少突胶质糖蛋白 (MOG) 22, 23 ,24,25,26。在这个阶段, 成熟的生命线延伸膜, 形成紧凑的包裹鞘围绕轴突和能够 myelinate。这与观察老鼠和老鼠大脑的情况一致, 在 P1419,20,21中, MBP+细胞变得越来越丰富。
自从 Fewster 和同事在1967年首次隔离少突胶质27 以来, 已实施了几种方法, 用于从啮齿动物中枢神经系统中分离生命线, 其中包括immunopanning28、29、30、荧光活化细胞分选 (资产管制署) 利用细胞表面特异抗原28,31, 差分梯度离心32,33,34,35和基于不同中枢神经胶质细胞差异粘附的震动方法36,37。然而, 现有的文化方法有局限性, 特别是在纯度、产量和执行程序38所需的时间方面。因此, 需要更有效的少突胶质隔离方法。
本文提出了一种简便、有效的选择方法, 用于磁三 O4+ preoligodendrocytes 细胞与新生小鼠幼崽的分离。此方法是对金刚砂et所报告的技术的修改。39和 Dincman et 。40 , 并提供在大约4小时以上80% 的少突胶质制备纯度。

Rapid and Refined CD11b Magnetic Isolation of Primary Microglia with Enhanced Purity and Versatility

Microglia are the primary responders to central nervous system insults; however, much remains unknown about their role in regulating neuroinflammation. Microglia are mesodermal cells that function similarly to macrophages in surveying inflammatory stress. The classical (M1-type) and alternative (M2-type) activations of macrophages have also been extended to microglia in an effort to better understand the underlying interplay these phenotypes have in neuroinflammatory conditions such as Parkinson&#39;s, Alzheimer&#39;s, and Huntington&#39;s Diseases. In vitro experimentation utilizing primary microglia offers rapid and reliable results that may be extended to the in vivo environment. Although this is a clear advantage over in vivo experimentation, isolating microglia while achieving adequate yields of optimal purity has been a challenge. Common methods currently in use either suffer from low recovery, low purity, or both. Herein, we demonstrate a refinement of the column-free CD11b magnetic separation method that achieves a high cell recovery and enhanced purity in half the amount of time. We propose this optimized method as a highly useful model of primary microglial isolation for the purposes of studying neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration.

Here, we present a protocol to isolate microglia from postnatal mouse pups (day 1) for in vitro experimentation. This improvised method of isolation generates both high yield and purity, a significant advantage over alternate methods that allows broad range experimentation for the purposes of elucidating microglial biology.

Characterization and Isolation of Mouse Primary Microglia by Density Gradient Centrifugation

Microglia, the resident immune cells in the brain, are the first responders to inflammation or injury in the central nervous system. Recent research has revealed microglia to be dynamic, capable of assuming both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory phenotypes. Both M1 (pro-inflammatory) and M2 (pro-reparative) phenotypes play an important role in neuroinflammatory conditions such as perinatal brain injury, and exhibit differing functions in response to certain environmental stimuli. The modulation of microglial activation has been noted to confer neuroprotection thus suggesting microglia may have therapeutic potential in brain injury. However, more research is required to better understand the role of microglia in disease, and this protocol facilitates that. The protocol described below combines a density gradient centrifugation process to reduce cellular debris, with magnetic separation, producing a highly pure sample of primary microglial cells that can be used for in vitro experimentation, without the need for 2-3 weeks culturing. Additionally, the characterization steps yield robust functional data about microglia, aiding studies to better our understanding of the polarization and priming of these cells, which has strong implications in the field of regenerative medicine.

A protocol for the isolation of primary microglia from murine brains is presented. This technique aids in furthering the current understanding of neurological conditions. Density gradient centrifugation and magnetic separation are combined to produce sufficient yield of a highly pure sample. Furthermore, we outline the steps for characterization of microglia.

Magnetic Isolation of Microglial Cells from Neonate Mouse for Primary Cell Cultures

Microglia, as brain resident macrophages, are fundamental to several functions, including response to environmental stress and brain homeostasis. Microglia can adopt a large spectrum of activation phenotypes. Moreover, microglia that endorse pro-inflammatory phenotype is associated with both neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. In vitro studies are widely used in research to evaluate potential therapeutic strategies in specific cell types. In this context studying microglial activation and neuroinflammation in vitro using primary microglial cultures is more relevant than microglial cell lines or stem-cell-derived microglia. However, the use of some primary cultures might suffer from a lack of reproducibility. This protocol proposes a reproducible and relevant method of magnetically isolating microglia from neonate pups. Microglial activation using several stimuli after 4 h and 24 h by mRNA expression quantification and a Cy3-bead phagocytic assay is demonstrated here. The current work is expected to provide an easily reproducible technique for isolating physiologically relevant microglia from juvenile developmental stages.

Primary microglia cultures are commonly used to evaluate new anti-inflammatory molecules. The present protocol describes a reproducible and relevant method to magnetically isolate microglia from neonate pups.

Isolation of Mouse Primary Microglia by Magnetic-Activated Cell Sorting in Animal Models of Demyelination

Microglia, the resident innate immune cells in the brain, are the primary responders to inflammation or injury in the central nervous system (CNS). Microglia can be divided into resting state and activated state and can rapidly change state in response to the microenvironment of the brain. Microglia will be activated under different pathological conditions and exhibit different phenotypes. In addition, there are many different subgroups of activated microglia and great heterogeneity between different subgroups. The heterogeneity mainly depends on the molecular specificity of microglia. Studies have revealed that microglia will be activated and play an important role in the pathological process of inflammatory demyelination. To better understand the characteristics of microglia in inflammatory demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, we propose a perilesional primary microglial sorting protocol. This protocol utilizes columnar magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) to obtain highly purified primary microglia and preserve the molecular characteristics of microglia to investigate the potential effects of microglia in inflammatory demyelinating diseases.

Here, we present a protocol to isolate and purify primary microglia in animal models of demyelinating diseases, utilizing columnar magnetic-activated cell sorting.

Simultaneous Isolation of Principal Central Nervous System-Resident Cell Types from Adult Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Mice

Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is the most common murine model for multiple sclerosis (MS) and is frequently used to further elucidate the still unknown etiology of MS in order to develop new treatment strategies. The myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein peptide 35-55 (MOG35-55) EAE model reproduces a self-limiting monophasic disease course with ascending paralysis within 10 days after immunization. The mice are examined daily using a clinical scoring system. MS is driven by different pathomechanisms with a specific temporal pattern, thus the investigation of the role of central nervous system (CNS)-resident cell types during disease progression is of great interest. The unique feature of this protocol is the simultaneous isolation of all principal CNS-resident cell types (microglia, oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and neurons) applicable in adult EAE and healthy mice. The dissociation of the brain and the spinal cord from adult mice is followed by magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) to isolate microglia, oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and neurons. Flow cytometry was used to perform quality analyses of the purified single-cell suspensions confirming viability after cell isolation and indicating the purity of each cell type of approximately 90%. In conclusion, this protocol offers a precise and comprehensive way to analyze complex cellular networks in healthy and EAE mice. Moreover, required mice numbers can be substantially reduced as all four cell types are isolated from the same mice.

Isolation of Hypothalamic Microglia from Freshly Perfused Adult Mouse Brain by Magnetic-Activated Cell Sorting

Microglia, as the resident macrophages of the brain, are essential for maintaining brain homeostasis. They shape neuronal circuits during development, survey their environment for debris or dead cells, as well as respond to infection and injury in the brain, among many other functions. However, their important role in neurodevelopment and synaptic plasticity and pathophysiology has not been fully defined, highlighting the need for further investigation. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of the role of microglia in these processes, we need to isolate microglia and characterize them genetically, metabolically, and functionally. However, the isolation of microglia from adult mice, especially from small brain structures, is challenging as they represent a small percentage of the total brain cells, and the yield of isolated microglia is often too low. Here, the magnetic isolation of microglia using CD11b+ microbeads allows us to sort microglial cells from the hypothalamus of a freshly perfused adult mouse brain. The current method allows us to achieve relatively high purity and yield in a short period while maintaining cell viability.
