CD11c + microglia promote white matter repair after ischemic stroke.
Cell Death & Disease 2023 Februrary 25
Ischemic stroke leads to white matter damage and neurological deficits. However, the characteristics of white matter injury and repair after stroke are unclear. Additionally, the precise molecular communications between microglia and white matter repair during the stroke rehabilitation phase remain elusive. In this current study, MRI DTI scan and immunofluorescence staining were performed to trace white matter and microglia in the mouse transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) stroke model. We found that the most serious white matter damage was on Day 7 after the ischemic stroke, then it recovered gradually from Day 7 to Day 30. Parallel to white matter recovery, we observed that microglia centered around the damaged myelin sheath and swallowed myelin debris in the ischemic areas. Then, microglia of the ischemic hemisphere were sorted by flow cytometry for RNA sequencing and subpopulation analysis. We found that CD11c+ microglia increased from Day 7 to Day 30, demonstrating high phagocytotic capabilities, myelin-supportive genes, and lipid metabolism associated genes. CD11c+ microglia population was partly depleted by the stereotactic injecting of rAAV2/6M-taCasp3 (rAAV2/6M-CMV-DIO-taCasp3-TEVp) into CD11c-cre mice. Selective depletion of CD11c+ microglia disrupted white matter repair, oligodendrocyte maturation, and functional recovery after stroke by Rotarod test, Adhesive Removal test, and Morris Water Maze test. These findings suggest that spontaneous white matter repair occurs after ischemic stroke, while CD11c+ microglia play critical roles in this white matter restorative progress.
