Summary

Stem cell derived cultures harbor tremendous potential to model infectious diseases. Here, the culture of mouse and human gastric organoids derived from adult stem cells is described. The organoids are microinjected with the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori.

Abstract

Recently infection biologists have employed stem cell derived cultures to answer the need for new and better models to study host-pathogen interactions. Three cellular sources have been used: Embryonic stem cells (ESC), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) or adult stem cells. Here, culture of mouse and human gastric organoids derived from adult stem cells is described and used for infection with the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori. Human gastric glands are isolated from resection material, seeded in a basement matrix and embedded in medium containing growth factors epidermal growth factor (EGF), R-spondin, Noggin, Wnt, fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 10, gastrin and transforming growth factor (TGF) beta inhibitor. In these conditions, gastric glands grow into 3-dimensional organoids containing 4 lineages of the stomach. The organoids expand indefinitely and can be frozen and thawed similarly as cell lines. For infection studies, bacteria are microinjected into the lumen of the organoids. Infected organoids are processed for imaging. The described methods can be adapted to other organoids and infections with other bacteria, viruses or parasites. This allows the study of infection-induced changes in primary cells.

Introduction

Studiet av patogener bygger på lämpliga modellsystem för att efterlikna in vivo infektion. För vissa smittämnen, är lämpliga modellsystem saknas medan vissa av de använda systemen är långt ifrån optimal. Ett exempel är den gastriska bakterien Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), som kausalt relaterad till utveckling av magcancer. Men i avsaknad av en mer lämplig cellodlingssystem, många studier som syftar analysera de molekylära mekanismerna bakom cancerutveckling användning cancercellinjer, som representerar slutpunkten för cancer kaskaden. Primära, icke-transformerade celler skulle vara en bättre modell för dessa studier. Men primära celler är endast tillgängliga från ett litet antal givare och kan inte odlas över längre tidsperioder. Under de senaste åren har stamcellsforskning gjort betydande framsteg för att ge nya källor för primära cellkulturer för studiet av infektionsbiologi.

Kulturer fråntre stamcells källor har använts: Embryonala stamceller (ESC), inducerade pluripotenta stamceller (IPSC) eller adulta stamceller. De har använts för att modellera infektioner med virus, såsom cytomegalovirus 1,2 eller hepatit C-virus 3-7, parasiter, såsom Plasmodium falciparum 8 eller Toxoplasma gondii 9, och bakterier, såsom Bacterioides thetaiotaomicron 10 eller Salmonella enterica 11. Senast har flera metoder publicerats att modellera infektion med H. pylori med organoids härrör från ESC eller iPS-celler 12, mus adulta stamceller 21,22 eller mänskliga adulta stamceller 13 – 15.

Utvecklingen av organoid kulturer från adulta stamceller härstammar från en studie, i vilken enstaka stamceller som isolerats från murina tarmepitel ympades i en 3-dimensionell matris ochinbäddad i medium som härmade miljön i tarm stamceller innehållande EGF som mitogen, R-spondin att förbättra Wnt-signalering och Noggin att inhibera benmorfogent protein (BMP) signalering 16. Notably dessa kulturer inte kräver samodling med mesenkymala celler. Under dessa förhållanden, stamcellerna proliferera och bilda små strukturer med domäner som härbärgerar celler av tarmkryptorna och domäner som innehåller cellerna i villi. De organoids sålunda själv organisera sig för att efterlikna in vivo situationen. Idag kan adulta stamceller från många murina och humana vävnader odlas in vitro och själv organisera sig i organoids som liknar deras in vivo motsvarighet, såsom tunntarmen och tjocktarmen 17, mage 13,18, lever 19,20, bukspottkörtel 21 och prostata 22.

Här ger vi en video protokoll till kultur mus eller människa gastric organoids från adulta stamceller cells och mikroinjicera dem med H. pylori. Detta protokoll är baserad på tidigare rapporter 13,18. Denna metod kan anpassas för odling och infektera andra organoid kulturer såsom intestinala organoids.

Protocol

1. Inrättande av Gastric organoida Culture Notera: Detta protokoll kan användas för isoleringen av gastriska körtlar från mus eller human vävnad. Det rekommenderas att använda vävnad av ca 1 cm. Mänsklig vävnad kan erhållas från gastriska resektioner eller biopsier. Framställning av material Obs: Den använda källaren matrisen är Matrigel. Håll källaren matrisen på is vid alla tidpunkter. Förvara källaren matrisen vid -20 ° C och tina på is före anvä…

Representative Results

Detta protokoll möjliggör isolering av magkörtlar (Figur 2). Körtlar sås i källaren matris, som stelnar som droppe inuti en brunn, vilket ger en 3 dimensionell ram rik på laminin och kollagen för att tillåta körtlar växa till organoids (Figur 3). Organoids börjar vanligtvis som små cystor och inom 12-16 dagar, de expanderar till sfärer med en diameter av 50-300 pm (Figur 4). Vissa organoids kommer att stanna cystisk, vissa kommer att utveckla små buddings…

Discussion

This protocol describes the use of ever-expanding, untransformed primary organoids from adult stem cells for infection biology. Critical steps are i) the isolation of viable glands, ii) expansion of organoids and iii) the microinjection. Below are some suggestions for modifications, troubleshooting and technical considerations.

Compared to other isolation methods, which use vigorous shaking or pipetting to release glands and can be equally successful, the technique presented here has the adva…
