Abstract
Non-neural extracellular matrix (ECM) has limited application in humanized physiological neural modeling due to insufficient brain-specificity and safety concerns. Although brain-derived ECM contains enriched neural components, certain essential components are partially lost during the decellularization process, necessitating augmentation. Here, it is demonstrated that the laminin-augmented porcine brain-decellularized ECM (P-BdECM) is xenogeneic factor-depleted as well as favorable for the regulation of human neurons, astrocytes, and microglia. P-BdECM composition is comparable to human BdECM regarding brain-specificity through the matrisome and gene ontology-biological process analysis. As augmenting strategy, laminin 111 supplement promotes neural function by synergic effect with laminin 521 in P-BdECM. Annexin A1(ANXA1) and Peroxiredoxin(PRDX) in P-BdECM stabilized microglial and astrocytic behavior under normal while promoting active neuroinflammation in response to neuropathological factors. Further, supplementation of the brain-specific molecule to non-neural matrix also ameliorated glial cell inflammation as in P-BdECM. In conclusion, P-BdECM-augmentation strategy can be used to recapitulate humanized pathophysiological cerebral environments for neurological study.
