Description

Accession
P23560
Source
Optimized DNA sequence encoding Human Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor mature chain was expressed in Escherichia Coli.

>97%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Biological Activity
The ED(50) was determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of rat C6 cells, and was found to be in the range of 0.5 ug/ml.

Methods

Neural induction

  • After 6-8 (early) and 20-30 (late) passages, iPSC and late-passage (30-40) ESCs were subjected to neural differentiation according to a previously established procedure for ESCs (Figure 4 (iPSC) or 5 × 104 (ESC) cells per ml to allow embryoid body (EB) formation.
  • Differentiation medium was changed at day 3.
  • On day 5, EBs were plated en bloc on tissue culture plates or chamber slides double-coated with poly-D-lysine (200 μg/ml) and mouse laminin (10 μg/ml) at a density of 1-2 × 102 EBs per cm2 in fresh medium.
  • Before plating, EB were imaged to assess size and shape.
  • At least 50 EBs were analyzed using MetaMorph software to determine the average EB diameter for each biological replicate.
  • Twenty-four-thirty-six hours post plating, the medium was changed to neural induction medium containing GMEM, 1% N2, 2 mM glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate,…

Acute BDNF treatment induces maturation of the dendritic spine population.

  • 11 DIV hippocampal neurons were transfected with a vector expressing Lifeact-ruby, and 24 hrs later, the neurons were treated with vehicle or 100 ng/ml BDNF followed by time-lapse imaging every 5 minutes for 1 hr.

Neural precursor culture and viral transduction

  • To differentiate NPs to neurons, NPs were plated on polyornithine and laminin coated plates in NP media and grown until they reached 70% confluence.
  • FGF was removed and NP media supplemented with 20 ng/ml BDNF , 20 ng/ml GDNF and 0.5 mM dibutyryl cAMP (N6,2′-O-Dibutyryladenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate sodium salt).
  • Medium was exchanged every 2–3 days.

Monolayer neuronal differentiation

  • iPSC cultures were dissociated with Accutase to generate single-cell suspensions, then differentially plated on gelatin-coated plasticware for 1 h in medium'>hESC medium in the presence of ROCK inhibitor (Y27632, Ascent) to remove SNL feeders.
  • The nonattached cells were resuspended in MEF-CM (&systems) with 10 ng ml−1 FGF2 and plated on growth-factor reduced Matrigel (B) at a density of 25,000 cells cm−2 and allowed to propagate in self-renewal conditions for 72 h or until 70–90% confluent, whereupon media was changed to KS medium containing 50 ng ml−1 Noggin , 10 μM −1 SHH C24II and 50 ng ml−1 Wnt1 for the second day onwards.
  • kk1 blocking antibody (100 ng ml−1& ) was also added for the second day only.
  • After 5 days, medium'>medium'>KSR medium'>medium containing these ligands was cross-tapered with medium'>N2B27 medium'>medium (Cells) containing…

Preparation of Primary Hippocampal Cultures

  • Primary hippocampal cultures were prepared from wild-type neonatal (E19) rat embryos (timed pregnant Sprague Dawley rats were obtained from Charles River Laboratories, Wilmington, MA) as described previously

Developmental regulation of BDNF-induced TrkB receptor phosphorylation.

  • (b) Representative blots of experiments showing that BDNF (50 ng/ml, 15 min, 37°C) readily induces TrkB phosphorylation at sites Y515 and Y705/6 in P8 hippocampal microslices whereas neither site is effectively phosphorylated by BDNF in P24 hippocampal microslices.

Immunoisolation and Culture of RGC from Postnatal Mouse Retinae

  • Seven days old mice were killed according to institutional guidelines.
  • To isolate RGC, retinae were dissected and incubated for 45 min at 37°C in Dulbecco’s phosphate buffered saline (D-PBS; containing 160 U/ml papain, 200 U/ml DNAse.
  • The tissues were then sequentially triturated in D-PBS containing 0.15% trypsin inhibitor , 650 U/ml DNAse and 1:75 rabbit anti-rat macrophage antibody.
  • Cells were spun down (800′g for 13 min), resuspended in 1% trypsin inhibitor in D-PBS, spun down again and then resuspended in D-PBS containing 0.02% bovine serum-albumin (fraction V).
  • Cell suspension was filtered through a nylon-mesh ( 20 , , , ) and sequentially added to immunopanning plates.
  • Briefly, immunopanning was performed using two subtraction plates (150-mm diameter petri dishes , , ) coated with goat anti-rabbit-IgG ( , , ; 10 μg/ml) to remove microglial cells after incubation of the supernatant with anti-macrophage antibody (WAK Chemie, ).
  • Positive cell isolation was then achieved by incubating the filtrated…
