Large stem cell-derived neurospheres were generated from 33-week old HD hippocampus, but not WT hippocampus.
(A) Similar numbers of large (≥250 µm in diameter) hippocampal neurospheres were generated from HD (n = 4) and WT (n = 4) mice at 5 weeks of age. However, by 33 weeks, large neurospheres could only be generated from the HD hippocampus (n = 4) and not the WT (n = 5) hippocampus. Data are expressed as mean ± s.e.m. Representative images of a small progenitor-derived neurosphere from a 33-week old WT hippocampus (B) and a large stem cell-derived neurosphere from a 33-week old HD hippocampus (C). Small neurospheres generated from the 33-week old WT hippocampus gave rise exclusively to astrocytes (shown in green; D), whereas the large neurospheres generated from the 33-week old HD hippocampus gave rise to astrocytes (green) and a small number of neurons (red; E). Scale bars in B and C are 100 µm.
