Definitions

  • MS Multiple sclerosis
  • Activation and CNS infiltration of the peripheral immune system is typical in early stages of the disease, but can become less prevalent as disease progresses.
  • oligodendrocytes ensheathes axons and dramatically increases conduction velocity of neural impulses while providing trophic support to the neuron.
  • Myelin is thought to regenerate early in disease, as oligodendroycte progenitor cells (OPCs) proliferate and generate new myelinating oligodendrocytes in response to demyelination events.
  • OPCs oligodendroycte progenitor cells
  • Axon loss as a result of demyelination is thought to underlie long term disease progression and disability in MS patients (see, Compston, et al., he Lancet, Vol. 359, 1221-1231, 2002 and D.
  • a compound that can promote differentiation and myelination of OPCs should function to restore this regenerative capacity and blunt or reverse the degenerative effects of MS (see, Stangel, M. et al, Progress in Neurobiology, 68, 361-376, 2002, Nairn, F. J. et al, Nature (Letter), published online 20 April 2015, doi: 10.1038/naturel4335).
  • Such an agent could both increase the function of neurons and provide trophic support to enhance their survival (see, Mei, F. et al. Nature Medicine, Vol. 20, No. 8, 954- 961, 2014).
  • Leukodystrophies are degenerative white matter diseases characterized by dysmyelination or demyelination. Multiple genetic or metabolic disorders can lead to progressive white matter damage in pediatric or adult populations resulting in severe motor or cognitive deficits, mental retardation or death.
  • a compound that can delay myelin damage or promote repair of demyelinated axons could significantly alter the course of leukodystrophies and improve their outcome.
  • Such a compound could be also useful in combination with other therapies that can correct the disease-specific defect, metabolic, genetic or other, responsible for initiating or maintaining the disease in order to accelerate repair, restore function or prevent further damage.
  • Periventricular leukomalacia is a condition characterized by toxic death of OPCs in the periventricular region and leading to severe dysmyelination and demyelination.
  • This pathology has been proposed as the root cause of cerebral palsy, a life-long debilitating CNS disorder characterized by various motor and/or cognitive deficits of variable intensity.
  • a compound promoting differentiation of surviving OPCs and remyelination of damaged areas could be used for the treatment or prevention of cerebral palsy in vulnerable infant populations.
  • Current therapies for MS are immunomodulatory in nature and do not directly promote repair.
  • some of these immunomodulatory agents can leave patients vulnerable to opportunistic infection or neoplasia.
  • compounds, such as those of the present invention that can promote differentiation and myelination of OPCs and lead to the repair of demyelinated axons.
  • Such a compound could also be useful in combination with existing or experimental immunmodulating and other relevant therapies to treat MS and other neurological and demyelinating diseases.

  • This process accounts for the variability inherent in the demyelination process, in which some animals experience more demyelination than others. It more accurately measures myelin generated in response to compound treatment.
  • the MOG channel is loaded and the Definiens "Auto Threshold" function is used to distinguish MOG positive regions from background. Regions of putative white matter with areas ⁇ 50 pixels are returned to the tissue class. Thus, remaining white matter tracts that resist demyelination from cuprizone are excluded from subsequent analyses.
  • the ratio of MBP signal to MOG signal is calculated. This consists of the mean MBP intensity value divided by the mean MOG intensity value over the entirety of the image.
  • This MBP: MOG ratio is used to normalize the intensity between the MBP and MOG channels.
  • the normalized MOG signal multiplied by 0.5 is subtracted from the MBP signal, creating a new image, "MBP-MOG".
  • the "Auto Threshold" function is used on the MBP-MOG image, and the 'new' myelin consisting of pixels with intensities above the threshold is delineated.

After the 30 minute incubation, DNase (Sigma D4527; 75 ⁇ of a 1 mg/ml stock) was added to each tube, followed by mechanical trituration using a 2 ml serological pipette and autopipettor to gently dissociate the tissue. Following trituration, larger tissue pieces were allowed to settle by gravity, and the supernatant containing dissociated cells was transferred to a 50 ml conical tube with 4 ml of trypsin inhibitor.
  • Cells were pelleted by centrifugation, resuspended in myelination medium and filtered through a 40 ⁇ filter. Cells were then seeded in 96-well plates (BD Biosciences, Black, PDL- coated, Cat. No. 356640) or in some cases in 384-well plates at 87,500-95,000 cells/well in a final volume of 200 ⁇ 1 of Myelination Medium in the presence or absence of compound and cultured for 14 days in a humidified 37°C incubator with 5% CO2.

  • the Vertex myelin detection software was used to quantify the amount of myelin wrapping axons in a digital image that was obtained from our in-house microscope.
  • the software identified and traced MBP positive ridge like structures in the image that were indicative of myelinating axons.
  • a confounding factor in the analysis was the large debris fields typically occurring in the images. These fields resulted from the assay conditions required to achieve myelination. Special care was taken to ensure that noise in the image induced by the debris field was appropriately suppressed so that the signal that arose from the myelination could be recovered.
  • the software was written in the Jython programming language and made significant utilization of the Fiji image analysis toolkits (see, Schindelin, J.; Arganda-Carreras, I. & Frise, E. et al, "Fiji: an open-source platform for biological- image analysis", Nature Methods 9(7): 676-682, 2012). There were several steps to the algorithm, each of which are discussed below.
  • Morphological skeletonization was applied to the binary mask and the resulting image was then converted to a graph data structure.
  • Each node of the graph represented a pixel of the image. Owing to the skeletonizaiton process, each node was connected to at most 4 neighboring pixels. Nodes connected to one other node indicated the end of a myelin strand ("end nodes"); nodes connected to exactly two other nodes indicated a pixel contained in a myelin strand (“myelin node”); while nodes connected to 3 or 4 other nodes indicated regions where myelin strands intersect ("join nodes").
  • Neighboring 'myelin nodes' that were adjacent to the same "join node” were merged into longer strands of myelin. This process was done in a greedy fashion. The longest strand of myelin originating from an "end node” in the graph was identified. If this strand terminated in an end node the strand was extracted from the graph. If the strand terminated at a "join node” then it was joined with one of the other myelin strands adjacent to the same join node. The largest angle between the growing strand and all other strands adjacent to the join node was determined. If this angle was greater or equal to 140 degrees, then the growing strand and the strand that made this large angle were merged into one strand.
  • the two strands that were merged were removed from being adjacent to the "join node". If the angle was less than 140 degrees, the growing strand was extracted from the graph and removed as being adjacent to the join node. The entire process was repeated until all strands were removed from the graph.
  • Various geometric properties of the strand such as length and maximum curvature were computed from the number of pixels in the strand and the connectivity of the graph.
  • the strand needed to be of a sufficient length (at least greater than 40 pixels). To ensure the strand was not overly curved, the ratio of the geometric distance between strand endpoints to the length of the strand needed to be greater than or equal to 0.8. Finally, to ensure the strand was not overly thick, the gray scale gradient at each point on the strand in the directions orthogonal to the strand direction needed to decay sufficiently rapidly. Specifically, the gray scale needed to decrease by 25% from the gray scale value of pixel intersected by the orthogonal line and the putative myelin strand. This decrease needed to occur within 5 pixels. If a strand passes all quality checks it was quantified as myelin.
