Research Abstract |
Olfactory sensory neurons are generated from neural stem cells (NSCs) throughout life. Neurosphere assays are standard studying these NSCs in normal tissues. To isolate NSCs) from the mouse olfactory epithelium, we made neurospheres from the olfactory mucosa by a serum-free culture system. Then, we succeeded to differentiate those to olfactory neurons and astrocytes in media, not supplemented with mitogens such as EGF and FGF. Further, olfactory bulb (OB) interneurons are also generated from NSCs throughout the life. Next, by using the lentiviral system, we have analyzed the sensory input-dependent development of OB interneurons. We injected the lentivirrus (CMV promoter-gapEYFP gene) into the SVZ at neonatal stage, followed by naris occlusion.We found that the odorant-induced activity is necessary for the dendrite elongation and dendrite arborization of OB interneurons.
