Subventricular zone stem cell niche injury is associated with intestinal perforation in preterm infants and predicts future motor impairment
Cell Stem Cell. 2024 Mar 22:S1934-5909(24)00082-1. doi: 10.1016/j.stem.2024.03.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBrain injury is highly associated with preterm birth. Complications of prematurity, including spontaneous or necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC)-associated intestinal perforations, are linked to lifelong neurologic impairment, yet the mechanisms are poorly understood. Early diagnosis of preterm brain injuries remains a significant challenge. Here, we identified subventricular zone echogenicity (SVE) on cranial ultrasound in preterm infants following intestinal perforations. The development of SVE was significantly ...

Autofluorescence is a biomarker of neural stem cell activation state
Cell Stem Cell. 2024 Mar 13:S1934-5909(24)00054-7. doi: 10.1016/j.stem.2024.02.011. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeural stem cells (NSCs) must exit quiescence to produce neurons; however, our understanding of this process remains constrained by the technical limitations of current technologies. Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) of autofluorescent metabolic cofactors has been used in other cell types to study shifts in cell states driven by metabolic remodeling that change the optical properties of these endogenous fluorophores. Using this non-destructive, live-cell, and label-free strategy, we found that quiescent NSCs...

Impact of CRISPR/HDR editing versus lentiviral transduction on long-term engraftment and clonal dynamics of HSPCs in rhesus macaques
Cell Stem Cell. 2024 Mar 12:S1934-5909(24)00053-5. doi: 10.1016/j.stem.2024.02.010. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFor precise genome editing via CRISPR/homology-directed repair (HDR), effective and safe editing of long-term engrafting hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) is required. The impact of HDR on true LT-HSC clonal dynamics in a relevant large animal model has not been studied. To track the output and clonality of HDR-edited cells and to provide a comparison to lentivirally transduced HSCs in vivo, we developed a competitive rhesus macaque (RM) autologous transplantation model, co-infusing HSCs transduced with a barc...
