dc.description.abstract | AimsMedial ganglionic eminence (MGE) progenitors give rise to inhibitory interneurons and may serve as an alternative cell source for large-scale cell transplantation for epilepsy after in vitro expansion. We investigated whether modifications in the culture medium of MGE neurospheres affect neuronal differentiation and expression of MGE-specific genes. In vivo, we compared anticonvulsant effects and cell differentiation pattern among neurospheres grown in different culture media and compared them with freshly harvested MGE cells. MethodsWe used four variations of cell culture: standard, containing growth factors (EGF/FGF-2) (GF) | en |

dc.description.abstract | and addition of retinoic acid and withdrawal of EGF/FGF-2 (WD-RA). Based on in vitro results neurosphere-grown (WD-RA or GF conditions) or fresh MGE cells were transplanted into the hippocampus. ResultsIn vitro WD-RA showed increased neuronal population and higher expression of Dlx1, Nkx2.1, and Lhx6 genes in comparison with GF culture condition. After transplantation, fresh MGE cells and neurospheres (GF) showed anticonvulsant effects. However, fresh MGE cells differentiated preferentially into inhibitory neurons, while GF gave rise to glial cells. ConclusionWe conclude that freshly isolated and neurosphere-grown MGE cells reduced seizures by different mechanisms (inhibitory interneurons vs. astrocytes). Fresh MGE cells appear more appropriate for cell therapies targeting inhibitory interneurons for conferring anticonvulsant outcomes. | en |
