在 非洲爪蟾 蝌蚪中生成视网膜损伤模型
Summary
我们已经开发了几种方案来诱导 非洲爪 蟾蝌蚪的视网膜损伤或视网膜变性。这些模型为研究视网膜再生机制提供了可能性。
Abstract
视网膜神经退行性疾病是导致失明的主要原因。在正在探索的众多治疗策略中，刺激自我修复最近显得特别有吸引力。Müller神经胶质细胞是视网膜修复的一个感兴趣的细胞来源，它具有干细胞的潜力和非凡的再生能力。然而，这种潜力在哺乳动物中非常有限。在具有再生能力的动物模型中研究视网膜再生的分子机制应该有助于了解如何释放哺乳动物Müller细胞再生视网膜的潜在能力。这是再生医学治疗策略发展的关键一步。为此，我们在 非洲爪蟾中开发了几种视网膜损伤范式：机械性视网膜损伤、允许硝基还原酶介导的光感受器条件消融的转基因系、基于 CRISPR/Cas9 介导的视紫 红质 敲除的视网膜色素变性模型，以及由眼内注射 CoCl2 驱动的细胞毒性模型。为了强调它们的优点和缺点，我们在这里描述了这一系列的方案，这些方案会产生各种退行性条件，并允许研究 非洲爪蟾的视网膜再生。
Introduction
全世界有数百万人患有各种导致失明的视网膜退行性疾病，例如视网膜色素变性、糖尿病视网膜病变或年龄相关性黄斑变性 （AMD）。迄今为止，这些疾病在很大程度上仍然无法治愈。目前正在评估的治疗方法包括基因治疗、细胞或组织移植、神经保护治疗、光遗传学和假肢装置。另一种新兴策略是基于通过激活具有干细胞潜力的内源性细胞进行自我再生。Müller 神经胶质细胞是视网膜的主要神经胶质细胞类型，是在这种情况下感兴趣的细胞来源之一。受伤后，它们可以去分化、增殖并产生神经元 1,2,3。虽然这个过程在斑马鱼或非洲爪蟾中非常有效，但在哺乳动物中却在很大程度上是低效的。
尽管如此，已经表明，用有丝分裂蛋白进行适当的治疗或各种因子的过表达可以诱导哺乳动物 Müller 神经胶质细胞周期重新进入，并且在某些情况下，触发其随后的神经发生承诺 1,2,3,4,5。然而，这在很大程度上仍不足以进行治疗。因此，增加我们对再生分子机制的了解对于确定能够有效地将Müller干细胞样特性转化为新的细胞治疗策略的分子是必要的。
为此，我们在 非洲爪蟾 中开发了几种触发视网膜细胞变性的损伤范式。在这里，我们提出了 （1） 非细胞类型特异性的机械性视网膜损伤，（2） 使用靶向杆细胞的 NTR-MTZ 系统的条件性和可逆细胞消融模型，（3） CRISPR/Cas9 介导的视 紫红质 敲除，触发进行性杆细胞变性的视网膜色素变性模型， 以及 （4） CoCl2诱导的细胞毒性模型，根据剂量可以特异性靶向视锥细胞或导致更广泛的视网膜细胞变性。我们强调每种范式的特殊性、优点和缺点。
