Nucleotide receptors govern proliferation and differentiation of human neural stem cells
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
The study aimed at providing cues for improving the in vitro production of neurons, in particular of neurons with a dopaminergic phenotype. It was the goal of the project to analyse the functional expression of nucleotide receptors and their mechanistic role in affecting neural stem cell proliferation and differentiation in both human and mouse fetal neural stem cells. The project had proposed comparative and complementary approaches by using in parallel human (Leipzig) and mouse (Frankfurt) fetal neural progenitors. As a result of the reviewing process the human project (Leipzig) was excluded. Therefore the investigations were performed on mouse cells and in Frankfurt only. The data provide clear evidence that fetal mouse midbrain-derived neural precursors express a multitude of purinergic receptors and respond to a broad range of nucleotide receptor agonists. Nucleotides can be employed to enhance in vitro survival of young neurons and to increase the contribution of dopaminergic neurons to the total of precursor-derived neurons. Extracellular nucleotides can also negatively affect the survival of neurons in vitro. Our results demonstrate that nucleotides can be applied to enhance the formation of dopaminergic neurons from fetal mouse midbrain-derived neural precursors.
