This study explored how intercellular communication contributes to the activation of microglia and astrocytes after SCI. Here, we integrated four datasets using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) or single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) and constructed a comprehensive cellular atlas of the injured spinal cord. Transcriptomic changes in microglia and astrocytes were analyzed. We identified CD44 as a key receptor in SPP1-mediated microglial activation, which represented a subpopulation involved in inflammatory response in microglia. We defined a gliogenesis subpopulation of astrocytes that emerged at 3 dpi, which became the predominant cell type in the injured spinal cord. These astrocytes highly expressed the Nucleolin (Ncl) gene and interacted via the Pleiotrophin (Ptn) signaling pathway, which is associated with astrocyte proliferation. To validate these findings, we utilized a crush injury model. Flow cytometry of isolated microglia and astrocytes confirmed the upregulation of CD44 in microglia and NCL in astrocytes in response to SCI. In vivo results confirmed that the CD44 positive microglia accumulated and PLA results further confirmed the combination of SPP1 with CD44. In parallel, the upregulated expression of NCL in astrocytes facilitated their proliferation, underscoring the role of the NCL receptor in gliogenesis after SCI. In vitro validation demonstrated that exogenous SPP1 upregulates CD44 expression by promoting the phosphorylation of p65 and activating the NF-κB pathways in BV2 microglia, and that high expression of IL-6 indicates the activation of inflammation. PTN may enhance NCL expression and thus facilitates astrocyte proliferation. Collectively, our study identified key receptors that regulated inflammation responses and gliogenesis. Targeting the CD44 and NCL receptors may provide promising therapeutic strategies to modulate inflammation and promote tissue repair after SCI.</p>","PeriodicalId":9811,"journal":{"name":"Cell Regeneration","volume":"14 1","pages":"35"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12344060/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144834254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The limited knowledge of biomolecules that equally promote axon regeneration and glial cell dynamics, which are critical for nerve regeneration, poses a major challenge in developing effective therapies. Here, we showed that the neurotrophic factor mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) equally promotes axon regeneration and glial cell dynamics favorable for nerve regeneration. Using adult rodent models, we showed that the endogenous expression of MANF is restricted to non-peptidergic sensory neurons. However, supplementation of exogenous MANF promoted the growth of all subtypes of adult sensory neurons. We also demonstrated that exogenous MANF promotes the proliferation and migration of adult primary Schwann Cells (SCs). Furthermore, we showed that local and repeated administration of MANF to injured nerves promotes axon regeneration in mice models. Finally, we devised a therapeutic approach by programming nerve-resident SCs to locally and continuously deliver MANF to injured nerves and showed that this approach improves axon regeneration.

This study compared the gut microbiota profiles of participants undergoing moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT), high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and high-intensity functional training (HIFT) using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Thirty-one previously untrained healthy university students were randomly assigned into MICT (n = 7), HIIT (n = 12) and HIFT (n = 12). The results revealed that distinct gut microbiome profiles in participants under different exercise modes. Notably, the alpha-diversity gradually increased from the MICT group to the HIFT group. In addition, there was a progressive shift towards a Faecalibacterium-dominated microbial type from HIIT to HIFT group compared to MICT group. Individuals in the HIFT group were identified to be enriched with Lactobacillus and Limosilactobacillus, along with reduced Actinomyces and Anaeromassilibacillus. Functionally, the KEGG pathway and enzyme analysis using PICRUST2 revealed that the HIFT group exhibited prominence in muscle function-related pathways and enzymes, specifically ko00280 (valine, leucine, and isoleucine degradation), as well as the enzyme EC: 3.4.11.14 (alanine aminopeptidase).

Mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs), which play a central role in tissue repair, are particularly vulnerable to age-associated dysfunction. Lei et al. (Cell 188:1-22, 2025) address this limitation by engineering human embryonic stem cell-derived MPCs with enhanced FOXO3 activity (termed SRCs). Intravenous administration of FOXO3-SRCs to aged cynomolgus macaques significantly slowed aging across multiple organs compared to wild-type MPCs. SRC treatment improved cognitive performance, preserved brain structure, protected bone integrity, and rejuvenated immune function. Transcriptomic and DNA methylation aging clocks revealed substantial reductions in biological age, with the most pronounced rejuvenation observed in the reproductive system, skin, lung, muscle, and hippocampus. These effects were partly attributed to SRC-derived exosomes enriched in gero-protective proteins and metabolites. Importantly, SRCs exhibited robust safety, showing no tumorigenicity or immunogenicity.
