Abstract:
:The effects of X irradiation on oligodendrocyte-type-2-astrocyte (O-2A) progenitor cells derived from different regions of the perinatal central nervous system (CNS) of rats were investigated in vitro. The O-2A progenitor cells can differentiate into either oligodendrocytes or type-2 astrocytes. The depletion of these cells could lead to demyelination, seen as a delayed reaction after irradiation of the CNS in vivo. To quantify cell survival, O-2A progenitor cells were grown on monolayers of type-1 astrocytes. Monolayers of type-1 astrocytes stimulate O-2A progenitor cells to divide. O-2A progenitor cells were irradiated in vitro and clonogenic cell survival was measured. The O-2A progenitor cells derived from perinatal optic nerve were quite radiosensitive in contrast to O-2A progenitor cells derived from perinatal spinal cord and perinatal corpus callosum. Furthermore, O-2A progenitor cells derived from the optic nerve formed smaller colonies, with most colonies showing early differentiation into oligodendrocytes. In contrast, more than half of the colonies derived from corpus callosum did not show any differentiation after 2 weeks in vitro and kept growing. These differences support the view that perinatal O-2A progenitor cells derived from the optic nerve are committed progenitor cells while the O-2A progenitor cells derived from the perinatal corpus callosum and the perinatal spinal cord have more stem cell properties.
