THY1 – YFP mouse model as a tool for cell tracing
Introduction: This study was based on the mouse strain B6.Cg-Tg(Thy1-YFP)16Jrs/J which under the control of Thy1 gene promoter expresses yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) in all parts of neurons. In this study, we have determined and compared expression pattern of: 1) Thy1 - YFP positive cells during in vitro differentiation of neural stem cells (NSC), 2) during embryonic development of Thy1 – YFP mouse embryo and 3) after transplantation of Thy1 – YFP cells into the stroke-affected mouse brain. Materials and Methods: Neural stem cells were isolated from the forebrain of 14.5 old mouse embryos and cultured as neurospheres. Immunocytochemistry and RT-PCR were performed after cells differentiation. Embryonic slices were prepared for immunohistochemistry. In third part of this study, PKH26 labeled NSC were transplanted into the stroke-affected mouse brain obtained by MCAO method. Results: THY1 - YFP expression was described during differentiation of NSC and observed in neural progenitors as well as in mature neurons. Neural progenitors were nestin positive while mature cell were not. THY1 – YFP positive cells were positive for mature neuronal markers (MAP2, β3-tubulin and NeuN) during the whole differentiation period, while astrocytes which were GFAP positive were not expressing YFP. During embryonic development THY1 – YFP positive cells were observed from E12.5 and the expression steadily increased to the end of pregnancy. Positive cells were present in both, central and peripheral nervous system. After transplantation, cells survived and incorporated into the stroke-affected brain. Conclusion: Our results showed that mature neurons as well as neuronal progenitor cells do express THY1 – YFP construct in in vitro conditions, during embryonic development and after transplantation into the stroke-affected mouse brain. This suggests that in addition to analyses of neuronal differentiation in B6.Cg- Tg(Thy1-YFP)16Jrs/J mouse, NSCs isolated from this strain can be successfully used in studies where tracing of cells with neuronal fate is needed.
