text: Cerebral organoids differentiated from human-induced pluripotent stem cells
(hiPSC) provide a unique opportunity to investigate brain development. However,
organoids usually lack microglia, brain-resident immune cells, which are present
in the early embryonic brain and participate in neuronal circuit development.
Here, we find IBA1+ microglia-like cells alongside retinal cups between week 3
and 4 in 2.5D culture with an unguided retinal organoid differentiation protocol.
Microglia do not infiltrate the neuroectoderm and instead enrich within non-pigmented,
3D-cystic compartments that develop in parallel to the 3D-retinal organoids. When
we guide the retinal organoid differentiation with low-dosed BMP4, we prevent
cup development and enhance microglia and 3D-cysts formation. Mass spectrometry
identifies these 3D-cysts to express mesenchymal and epithelial markers. We confirmed
this microglia-preferred environment also within the unguided protocol, providing
insight into microglial behavior and migration and offer a model to study how
they enter and distribute within the human brain.

text: "To understand how potential gene manipulations affect in vitro microglia,
we provide a set of short protocols to evaluate microglia identity and function.
We detail steps for immunostaining to determine microglia identity. We describe
three functional assays for microglia: phagocytosis, calcium response following
ATP stimulation, and cytokine expression upon inflammatory stimuli. We apply these
protocols to human induced-pluripotent-stem-cell (hiPSC)-derived microglia, but
they can be also applied to other in vitro microglial models including primary
mouse microglia.\r\nFor complete details on the use and execution of this protocol,

text: Environmental cues influence the highly dynamic morphology of microglia. Strategies
to characterize these changes usually involve user-selected morphometric features,
which preclude the identification of a spectrum of context-dependent morphological
phenotypes. Here we develop MorphOMICs, a topological data analysis approach,
which enables semiautomatic mapping of microglial morphology into an atlas of
cue-dependent phenotypes and overcomes feature-selection biases and biological
variability. We extract spatially heterogeneous and sexually dimorphic morphological
phenotypes for seven adult mouse brain regions. This sex-specific phenotype declines
with maturation but increases over the disease trajectories in two neurodegeneration
mouse models, with females showing a faster morphological shift in affected brain
regions. Remarkably, microglia morphologies reflect an adaptation upon repeated
exposure to ketamine anesthesia and do not recover to control morphologies. Finally,
we demonstrate that both long primary processes and short terminal processes provide
distinct insights to morphological phenotypes. MorphOMICs opens a new perspective
to characterize microglial morphology.

text: Perineuronal nets (PNNs), components of the extracellular matrix, preferentially
coat parvalbumin-positive interneurons and constrain critical-period plasticity
in the adult cerebral cortex. Current strategies to remove PNN are long-lasting,
invasive, and trigger neuropsychiatric symptoms. Here, we apply repeated anesthetic
ketamine as a method with minimal behavioral effect. We find that this paradigm
strongly reduces PNN coating in the healthy adult brain and promotes juvenile-like
plasticity. Microglia are critically involved in PNN loss because they engage
with parvalbumin-positive neurons in their defined cortical layer. We identify
external 60-Hz light-flickering entrainment to recapitulate microglia-mediated
PNN removal. Importantly, 40-Hz frequency, which is known to remove amyloid plaques,
does not induce PNN loss, suggesting microglia might functionally tune to distinct
brain frequencies. Thus, our 60-Hz light-entrainment strategy provides an alternative
form of PNN intervention in the healthy adult brain.

text: 'Enzymatic digestion of the extracellular matrix with chondroitinase-ABC reinstates
juvenile-like plasticity in the adult cortex as it also disassembles the perineuronal
nets (PNNs). The disadvantage of the enzyme is that it must be applied intracerebrally
and it degrades the ECM for several weeks. Here, we provide two minimally invasive
and transient protocols for microglia-enabled PNN disassembly in mouse cortex:
repeated treatment with ketamine-xylazine-acepromazine (KXA) anesthesia and 60-Hz
light entrainment. We also discuss how to analyze PNNs within microglial endosomes-lysosomes.
For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to
Venturino et al. (2021).'

abstract:
- lang: eng
text: "Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are widely used to deliver genetic material
in vivo to distinct cell types such as neurons or glial cells, allowing for targeted
manipulation. Transduction of microglia is mostly excluded from this strategy,
likely due to the cells’ heterogeneous state upon environmental changes, which
makes AAV design challenging. Here, we established the retina as a model system
for microglial AAV validation and optimization. First, we show that AAV2/6 transduced
microglia in both synaptic layers, where layer preference corresponds to the intravitreal
or subretinal delivery method. Surprisingly, we observed significantly enhanced
microglial transduction during photoreceptor degeneration. Thus, we modified the
AAV6 capsid to reduce heparin binding by introducing four point mutations (K531E,
R576Q, K493S, and K459S), resulting in increased microglial transduction in the
outer plexiform layer. Finally, to improve microglial-specific transduction, we
validated a Cre-dependent transgene delivery cassette for use in combination with
the Cx3cr1CreERT2 mouse line. Together, our results provide a foundation for future
studies optimizing AAV-mediated microglia transduction and highlight that environmental
conditions influence microglial transduction efficiency.\r\n"

text: Microglia have emerged as a critical component of neurodegenerative diseases.
Genetic manipulation of microglia can elucidate their functional impact in disease.
In neuroscience, recombinant viruses such as lentiviruses and adeno-associated
viruses (AAVs) have been successfully used to target various cell types in the
brain, although effective transduction of microglia is rare. In this review, we
provide a short background of lentiviruses and AAVs, and strategies for designing
recombinant viral vectors. Then, we will summarize recent literature on successful
microglial transductions in vitro and in vivo, and discuss the current challenges.
Finally, we provide guidelines for reporting the efficiency and specificity of
viral targeting in microglia, which will enable the microglial research community
to assess and improve methodologies for future studies.
