ABSTRACT
ß-N-Methyl-Amino-L-Alanine (BMAA) produced by 95% of cyanobacteria is in constant augmentation with cyanobacteria worldwide proliferation due to global warming and eutrophication. Previously, it has been shown that this contaminant induced neurological disorders, notably by acting as a developmental toxin. However, very few studies focus on the impact of BMAA on neuroglial cells, like astrocytes and microglial cells, in a developmental context. In the present study, we investigated whether BMAA disturbs neurogenesis from mice subventricular zone (SVZ) cells and whether this neurotoxin induces neuroinflammation. We show that BMAA at 100 µM disturbs the population of undifferentiated cells (B1 and C cells) and promotes their proliferation. Further, BMAA affects the organization of neuroblasts, indicating that SVZ function could be impaired. BMAA affects neuroinflammatory processes by increasing the release of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1ß, IL-6 and TNFα. Our study adds to evidence that BMAA may disturb the central nervous system homeostasis by targeting glial cells. We highlighted that BMAA may impair SVZ niches and drives astrocytes and microglial cells into a proinflammatory status, with an ameboid shape for microglia.
