Abstract

In the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the subgranular zone of the brain, neurogenesis occurs throughout one's lifespan. Neural stem cells (NSCs) in these regions divide to maintain their stem cell pools as well as differentiate into neurons and glial cells. To monitor cell division, a thymidine analogue such as 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) has been used. In some cases, EdU was applied to label newly born neurons. Here, we report about the effects of EdU on the proliferation and differentiation of NSCs cultured from mouse SVZ. First, when NSCs were cultured in a proliferation medium containing EdU for 24 hr, they did not generate any neurons under the following differentiation conditions. When EdU was applied to the proliferating NSCs for 1 hr prior to differentiation, neurogenesis was still substantially reduced. Second, EdU decreased cell proliferation of NSCs in dose- and time-dependent manners. Finally, EdU inhibited differentiation into oligodendrocyte lineage, while the number of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-positive astrocytes increased. To our knowledge, these findings are the first to show the effects of EdU on the differentiation of SVZ NSCs and suggest that cell division is necessary for differentiation into neurons and oligodendrocytes.

뇌실하 영역과 subgranular zone은 뇌에서 평생 새로운 신경 세포를 만들어 내는 곳이다. 이 부위에 있는 신경줄기세포는 세포 분열을 통해서 줄기 세포군을 계속 유지할 뿐만 아니라, 신경 세포와 신경 교세포로 분화한다. 세포 분열을 측정하기 위해 thymidine 유사체인 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU)가 사용되어 왔다. 몇몇의 경우에서는 새롭게 만들어지는 신경 세포를 표지하려는 목적으로 사용되었다. 이번 연구에서는, EdU가 쥐의 뇌실 하영역에서 분리해낸 신경줄기세포의 분열과 분화에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 보여주었다. 첫째, 신경줄기세포가 EdU를 포함하는 세포 증식 배양액에서 24시간 동안 배양되었을 때, 추후에 분화를 유도하여도 신경세포로 분화가 전혀 일어나지 않았다. EdU를 1시간 동안 처리했을 때도 신경세포로의 분화가 상당부분 저해되었다. 둘째, EdU는 농도가 높을수록, 처리시간이 많을수록 신경줄기세포의 증식을 더욱 많이 저해하였다. 끝으로, EdU는 신경 교세포 중에서 oligodendrocyte으로의 분화는 억제하였지만, astrocyte로의 분화는 오히려 증가시켰다. 본 연구결과는 뇌실하 영역 신경줄기세포의 분화에 EdU가 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 처음으로 보여주었고, 이러한 결과들은 신경 세포와 oligodendrocyte로의 분화에 세포 분열이 반드시 필요하다는 것을 제안하고 있다.
