AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods for preparing midbrain organoids suffer from early graft fragility, insufficient long-range projection, and issues with donor preparation consistency and safety, making it difficult to achieve effective reconstruction of the substantia nigra-striatal pathway and neuronal replenishment.

Method used

Midbrain organoids were prepared using specific compositions and processing methods, including inducing compositions, modeling compositions, and maturation compositions. The proportion of A9 subtype cells was increased by optimizing culture conditions, and in vitro treatment with TNF-α inhibitors was used to enhance transplantation activity.

Benefits of technology

It improved the ventral identity purity and A9 bias of midbrain organoids, reduced early transplant apoptosis and inflammation, promoted the quantitative recovery of the substantia nigra-striatum pathway, and significantly improved the behavioral performance of Parkinson's disease model mice.

Abstract

本申请属于再生医学与神经系统疾病细胞治疗技术领域。本申请提供一种中脑类器官的制备方法及其用途,以及中脑类器官的预处理方法。其中,中脑类器官的制备方法包括以下步骤:将诱导多能干细胞处理以形成均一拟胚体;使所述拟胚体在诱导组合物中培养,以得到神经外胚层样拟胚体;将神经外胚层样拟胚体在模式化组合物中培养,以得到腹侧中脑模式化的类器官前体,其中在培养过程中加入NEAA;处理腹侧中脑模式化的类器官前体,以清除未分化的诱导多能干细胞;将清除处理后得到的中脑类器官前体在成熟组合物中培养,得到中脑类器官。本申请的制备方法使OTX2⁺细胞与OTX2⁺ / FOXA2⁺双阳性比例提高,并在第45天时A9样比例由32.0%提高至49.8%。
