Impact of 5-ALA-induced PPIX accumulation on neural stem cell behavior
5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a widely recognized and effective tool for improving tumor resections during surgical interventions but may directly interact with cells in the tumor microenvironment. Nevertheless, there remains an ongoing debate regarding the impact of 5-ALA on neural stem cells (NSCs). This study aims to investigate the effects of 5-ALA on both NSCs and oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs). In this study, NSCs were isolated from the subventricular zones of rat brains and differentiated into OPCs. Both NSCs and OPCs were subsequently treated with 5-ALA, and their effects were evaluated through immunostaining and colony-formation assays. Our findings show that 5-ALA treatment induces PPIX accumulation in both NSCs and OPCs, with NSCs exhibiting higher levels presumably due to their greater proliferation rate. Furthermore, our results indicate that prolonged PPIX accumulation impairs NSC clonogenicity. These results underscore possible interactions of 5-ALA-induced PPIX with NSCs. 5-ALA shows promise as a potential marker for NSCs, but may also be of value for specifically targeting NSCs through activation of porphyrins using light or radiotherapy.
期刊介绍:
The Brain Research Bulletin (BRB) aims to publish novel work that advances our knowledge of molecular and cellular mechanisms that underlie neural network properties associated with behavior, cognition and other brain functions during neurodevelopment and in the adult. Although clinical research is out of the Journal''s scope, the BRB also aims to publish translation research that provides insight into biological mechanisms and processes associated with neurodegeneration mechanisms, neurological diseases and neuropsychiatric disorders. The Journal is especially interested in research using novel methodologies, such as optogenetics, multielectrode array recordings and life imaging in wild-type and genetically-modified animal models, with the goal to advance our understanding of how neurons, glia and networks function in vivo.
