Extremely preterm birth (at <28 postconceptional weeks) leads to brain injury and represents the leading cause of childhood-onset neuropsychiatric diseases. No effective therapeutics exist to reduce the incidence and severity of brain injury of prematurity. Hypoxic events are the most important environmental factor, along with inflammation. Among other developmental processes, the second half of in utero fetal development coincides with the migration of cortical interneurons from the ganglionic eminences into the cortex; this process is thus prone to disruptions following extremely preterm birth. To date, no studies have directly investigated the migration of human cortical inhibitory neurons under hypoxic conditions. Using multi-day confocal live imaging in human forebrain assembloids (hFA) derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and ex vivo developing human brain tissue, we found a substantial reduction in the migration of hypoxic interneurons. Using transcriptomics, we identified adrenomedullin (ADM) as the gene with the highest fold change increase in expression. Based on previous literature about the protective role of supplemental ADM for other injuries, here, we demonstrated that addition of exogenous ADM to the hypoxic media restores the migration defects of interneurons. Lastly, we showed that one of the mechanisms of protection by ADM is through the activation of the cAMP/PKA pathway and subsequent pCREB-dependent rescued expression of a subset of GABA receptors, which are known to promote migration. Overall, in this manuscript, we provide the first direct evidence for hypoxia-induced deficits in the migration of human cortical interneurons and identify ADM as a possible target for therapeutic development.

View all literature mentionsOne of the largest financiers of research in Sweden that promotes scientific research, teaching and/or education beneficial to the Kingdom of Sweden. 20-30 percent of the Foundation''s grants relate to high-value research equipment for use within the technical, natural sciences and biomedical fields, and about 50 percent relate to major research projects and substantial scientific networks. Universities, academies and similar research and educational institutions are eligible for grants within the following fields: * Expensive scientific equipment * Fellowship programs initiated by the Foundation * Selected research projects of significant potential * Larger educational research projects Applications may be submitted by individual scientists, or research groups affiliated to a Swedish university or equivalent institution. An application may also be submitted by the management of a university, university college, scientific academy, or national research associations. Applications from private individuals without connection to a scientific institution are not considered.
View all literature mentionsFoundation to help all people lead healthy, productive lives, this funding and job resource is focused on health, poverty, and opportunity. They work with partner organizations worldwide to tackle critical problems in four program areas. Their Global Development Division works to help the world''s poorest people lift themselves out of hunger and poverty. Their Global Health Division aims to harness advances in science and technology to save lives in developing countries. Their United States Division works to improve U.S. high school and postsecondary education and support vulnerable children and families in Washington State. And their Global Policy & Advocacy Division seeks to build strategic relationships and promote policies that will help advance their work. Our approach to grantmaking in all four areas emphasizes collaboration, innovation, risk-taking, and, most importantly, results. The foundation is unable to make grants directly to individuals. The majority of our funding is proactive and made to U.S. tax-exempt organizations that are independently identified by our staff.
