Abstract:
:We looked at the possible interactions between astrocytes and neurones during reperfusion using an in vitro model of ischaemia-reperfusion injury, as a controlled environment that lends itself easily to manipulation of the numerous variables involved in such an insult. We constructed a chamber in which O2 can be lowered to a concentration of 1 microm and developed a primary cortical neuronal culture that is 99% pure and can survive to at least 10 days in vitro. We also established a novel system for the co-culture of astrocytes and neurones in order to study the communication between these cells in a manner that allows the complete separation of one cell type from another. Neurone cultures showed profound cell death following an ischaemic period of only 15 min. We co-cultured neurones that had been subjected to a 15-min ischaemic insult with either non-insulted astrocytes or astrocyte-conditioned medium during the reperfusion stage. Both astrocytes and astrocyte-conditioned medium enhanced neuronal survival. Our data also suggest that astrocyte-sourced neuronal glutathione synthesis may play a role in preventing neuronal death.
