    Tocris topotecan
    NUPR2 , potentially related to the DNA damage pathway, is the only differentially expressed gene when comparing the C9-HRE and sporadic FTD neurons ( A ). Both sporadic (C9-) and C9-HRE-carrying FTD (C9+) neurons display nuclei, which are significantly rounder in shape as well as significantly smaller compared to healthy neuron nuclei, indicated by altered nuclear eccentricity ( B ), and a higher number of micronuclei ( C ). A representative image of a micronucleus next to the nucleus is shown (arrow). Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn’s multiple comparisons test was used. n [Control] = 74; n [C9−] = 17; n [C9+] = 21. In addition, the distribution of larger and smaller sized nuclei is different in FTD neurons than that in control neurons ( D – F ). Representative images of control, C9-, and C9+ neurons treated with vehicle (upper panel) or 10 µM <t>topotecan</t> (lower panel). The neurons were stained with antibodies against MAP2 (red) and γH2A.X (green). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue) ( G ). Topotecan treatment significantly increases the number of γH2A.X-positive foci in the nuclei in all neurons, indicating increased DNA damage. At baseline, C9+ neurons display a slightly higher number of γH2A.X foci compared to control neurons, although this difference is not statistically significant ( H – J ). Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn’s multiple comparisons test was used. n [Control] = 26–28; n [C9−] = 15–18; n [C9+] = 44–64. Statistically significant differences are shown as *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, and ****p < 0.0001.

A representative image of a micronucleus next to the nucleus is shown (arrow). Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn’s multiple comparisons test was used. n [Control] = 74; n [C9−] = 17; n [C9+] = 21. In addition, the distribution of larger and smaller sized nuclei is different in FTD neurons than that in control neurons ( D – F ). Representative images of control, C9-, and C9+ neurons treated with vehicle (upper panel) or 10 µM topotecan (lower panel). The neurons were stained with antibodies against MAP2 (red) and γH2A.X (green). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue) ( G ). Topotecan treatment significantly increases the number of γH2A.X-positive foci in the nuclei in all neurons, indicating increased DNA damage. At baseline, C9+ neurons display a slightly higher number of γH2A.X foci compared to control neurons, although this difference is not statistically significant ( H – J ).

Flow cytometry histograms comparing green fluorescence intensities in 17-week-old reporter organoids exposed to A) 1 µM topotecan, B) 1 µM irinotecan, and C) 0.2% DMSO in water (vehicle control). The parental and reporter iPSCs were used to determine the GF +/-gate. a.u. - arbitrary units.

    Article Snippet: Topotecan hydrochloride and irinotecan hydrochloride (both from Molcan Corporation) were directly added to 17-week-old AS reporter organoids at a final concentration of 1μM in culture.
