Abstract
Transfer of healthy mitochondria from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to ischemic neurons represents a potent stroke therapeutic. MSCs were grown under ambient conditions (nMSCs) or a metabolic switching paradigm by alternating galactose and glucose in medium (sMSCs) and then assayed for oxygen consumption rates using the Seahorse technology. Subsequently, primary neurons were subjected to oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) and then co-cultured with either nMSCs or sMSCs. Compared to nMSCs, sMSCs displayed higher basal energy production, larger spare respiratory capacity, greater ATP production, and decreased proton leak. Co-culture of OGD-exposed neurons with sMSCs conferred greater cell viability, enhanced cell metabolism, reduced mitochondrial reactive oxidative species mRNA, and elevated mitochondria ATP mRNA than those cultured with nMSCs. Metabolic switching produces "super" mitochondria that may underlie the therapeutic benefit of using sMSCs to treat ischemic cells.
期刊介绍:
NeuroMolecular Medicine publishes cutting-edge original research articles and critical reviews on the molecular and biochemical basis of neurological disorders. Studies range from genetic analyses of human populations to animal and cell culture models of neurological disorders. Emerging findings concerning the identification of genetic aberrancies and their pathogenic mechanisms at the molecular and cellular levels will be included. Also covered are experimental analyses of molecular cascades involved in the development and adult plasticity of the nervous system, in neurological dysfunction, and in neuronal degeneration and repair. NeuroMolecular Medicine encompasses basic research in the fields of molecular genetics, signal transduction, plasticity, and cell death. The information published in NEMM will provide a window into the future of molecular medicine for the nervous system.
