Mouse Models of Periventricular Leukomalacia
We describe a protocol for establishing mouse models of periventricular leukomalacia (PVL). PVL is the predominant form of brain injury in premature infants and the most common antecedent of cerebral palsy. PVL is characterized by periventricular white matter damage with prominent oligodendroglial injury. Hypoxia/ischemia with or without systemic infection/inflammation are the primary causes of...
متن کاملSlice Culture A Novel Model of Glioma Cell Invasion Using Organotypic Brain
A novel model of glioma cell invasion was established by using an organotypic culture of rat brains. Brain slices prepared from 2-day-old rat neonates were maintained in a culture at the interface between air and the culture medium. The slices were placed on double-layered membranes consisting of a polycarbonate membrane with 8-/im pores and a mem brane with 0.4-fim pores. The organotypic cytoa...
متن کاملorganotypic brain slice culture promotes the transformation of haemopoietic
the exact developmental origin of microglia is still under debate. in the present study we investigated which heamatopoietic tissues and which features of the organotypic brain slice culture promoted microglia ramification. the potential of cells derived from embryonic yolk sac, embryonic aorta-gonad-mesonephros and adult blood monocytes was examined. these tissues were co-cultured with brain s...
متن کاملSignificant glial alterations in response to iron loading in a novel organotypic hippocampal slice culture model
Aberrant iron deposition in the brain is associated with neurodegenerative disorders including Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. To study the collective response to iron loading, we have used hippocampal organotypic slices as a platform to develop a novel ex vivo model of iron accumulation. We demonstrated differential uptake and toxicity of iron after 12 h exposu...
متن کاملOrganotypic Brain Slice Cultures: a Review
In vitro cell cultures are an important tool for obtaining insights into cellular processes in an isolated system and a supplement to in vivo animal experiments. While primary dissociated cultures permit a single homogeneous cell population to be studied, there is a clear need to explore the function of brain cells in a three-dimensional system where the main architecture of the cells is preser...
