 Abstract: Microglial cells as innate immune key players have a critical and unique role in neurodegenerative disorders. They strongly interact with their microenvironment in a complex manner and react to changes by switching their phenotype and functional activation states. In order to understand the development of brain diseases, it is imperative to elucidate up- or down-regulation of genes involved in microglia polarisation in time-profile by a simple-to-use strategy. Here, we present a new imaging strategy to follow promoter activity of genes involved in microglia polarisation. We lentivirally transduced BV-2 microglia cells in culture with constructs consisting of the induced nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), Fc gamma receptor III (Fcgr3) (both resembling the pro-inflammatory M1-like phenotype) or Chitinase-like 3 (Chil3/Ym1) (resembling the anti-inflammatory M2-like phenotype) promoters and stimulated transgenic cells with potent activators for pro- or anti-inflammatory response, such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS) + interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) or interleukin (IL)-4, respectively. Promoter activities upon polarisation phases were quantitatively assessed by the two imaging reporters Luc2 for bioluminescence and eGFP for fluorescence.
