J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2024; 33:107738. [PMID: 38701940 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2024.107738] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Edaravone dexborneol is neuroprotective against ischemic stroke, with free radical-scavenging and anti-inflammatory effects, but its effects in hemorrhagic stroke remain unclear. We evaluated whether edaravone dexborneol has a neuroprotective effect in intracerebral hemorrhage, and its underlying mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Bioinformatics were used to predict the pathway of action of edaravone dexborneol. An intracerebral hemorrhage model was established using type IV collagenase in edaravone dexborneol, intracerebral hemorrhage, Sham, adeno-associated virus + edaravone dexborneol, and adeno-associated virus + intracerebral hemorrhage groups. The modified Neurological Severity Score was used to evaluate neurological function in rats. Brain water content was measured using the dry-wet weight method. Tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and γ-aminobutyric acid levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression levels of neurofilament light chain and γ-aminobutyric acid transaminase were determined by western blot. Nissl staining was used to examine neuronal morphology. Cognitive behavior was evaluated using a small-animal treadmill. RESULTS Edaravone dexborneol alleviated neurological defects, improved cognitive function, and reduced cerebral edema, neuronal degeneration, and necrosis in rats with cerebral hemorrhage. The expression levels of neurofilament light chain, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and γ-aminobutyric acid were decreased, while γ-aminobutyric acid transaminase expression was up-regulated. CONCLUSIONS Edaravone dexborneol regulates γ-aminobutyric acid content by acting on the γ-aminobutyric acid transaminase signaling pathway, thus alleviating oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, neuronal degeneration, and death caused by excitatory toxic injury of neurons after intracerebral hemorrhage.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e32688. [PMID: 38975145 PMCID: PMC11226848 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e32688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024] Open
Abstract
The persistence of neuronal degeneration and damage is a major obstacle in ageing medicine. Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors detect environmental stressors and trigger the maturation and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines that can cause neuronal damage and accelerate cell death. NLR (NOD-like receptors) inflammasomes are protein complexes that contain NOD-like receptors. Studying the role of NLR inflammasomes in ageing-related neurological disorders can provide valuable insights into the mechanisms of neurodegeneration. This includes investigating their activation of inflammasomes, transcription, and capacity to promote or inhibit inflammatory signaling, as well as exploring strategies to regulate NLR inflammasomes levels. This review summarizes the use of NLR inflammasomes in guiding neuronal degeneration and injury during the ageing process, covering several neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, stroke, and peripheral neuropathies. To improve the quality of life and slow the progression of neurological damage, NLR-based treatment strategies, including inhibitor-related therapies and physical therapy, are presented. Additionally, important connections between age-related neurological disorders and NLR inflammasomes are highlighted to guide future research and facilitate the development of new treatment options.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation and microglia polarization play pivotal roles in brain injury induced by intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Despite the well-established involvement of CXC motif chemokine ligand 16 (CXCL16) in regulating inflammatory responses across various diseases, its specific functions in the context of neuroinflammation and microglial polarization following ICH remain elusive. In this study, we investigated the impact of CXCL16 on neuroinflammation and microglia polarization using both mouse and cell models. Our findings revealed elevated CXCL16 expression in mice following ICH and in BV2 cells after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. Specific silencing of CXCL16 using siRNA led to a reduction in the expression of neuroinflammatory factors, including IL-1β and IL-6, as well as decreased expression of the M1 microglia marker iNOS. Simultaneously, it enhanced the expression of anti-inflammatory factors such as IL-10 and the M2 microglia marker Arg-1. These results were consistent across both mouse and cell models. Intriguingly, co-administration of the PI3K-specific agonist 740 Y-P with siRNA in LPS-stimulated cells reversed the effects of siRNA. In conclusion, silencing CXCL16 can positively alleviate neuroinflammation and M1 microglial polarization in BV2 inflammation models and ICH mice. Furthermore, in BV2 cells, this beneficial effect is mediated through the PI3K/Akt pathway. Inhibition of CXCL16 could be a novel approach for treating and diagnosing cerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is the primary reason for human disability and death, but the available treatment options are limited. Hence, it is imperative to explore novel and efficient therapies. In recent years, pyroptosis (a pro-inflammatory cell death characterized by inflammation) has emerged as an important pathological mechanism in ischemic stroke that can cause cell death through plasma membrane rupture and release of inflammatory cytokines. Pyroptosis is closely associated with inflammation, which exacerbates the inflammatory response in ischemic stroke. The level of inflammasomes, GSDMD, Caspases, and inflammatory factors is increased after ischemic stroke, exacerbating brain injury by mediating pyroptosis. Hence, inhibition of pyroptosis can be a therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke. In this review, we have summarized the relationship between pyroptosis and ischemic stroke, as well as a series of treatments to attenuate pyroptosis, intending to provide insights for new therapeutic targets on ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Hemorrhage-induced injury of the corticospinal tract (CST) in the internal capsule (IC) causes severe neurological dysfunction in both human patients and rodent models of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). A nuclear receptor Nurr1 (NR4A2) is known to exert anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects in several neurological disorders. Previously we showed that Nurr1 ligands prevented CST injury and alleviated neurological deficits after ICH in mice. To prove direct effect of Nurr1 on CST integrity, we examined the effect of Nurr1 overexpression in neurons of the primary motor cortex on pathological consequences of ICH in mice. ICH was induced by intrastriatal injection of collagenase type VII, where hematoma invaded into IC. Neuron-specific overexpression of Nurr1 was induced by microinjection of synapsin I promoter-driven adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector into the primary motor cortex. Nurr1 overexpression significantly alleviated motor dysfunction but showed only modest effect on sensorimotor dysfunction after ICH. Nurr1 overexpression also preserved axonal structures in IC, while having no effect on hematoma-associated inflammatory events, oxidative stress, and neuronal death in the striatum after ICH. Immunostaining revealed that Nurr1 overexpression increased the expression of Ret tyrosine kinase and phosphorylation of Akt and ERK1/2 in neurons in the motor cortex. Moreover, administration of Nurr1 ligands 1,1-bis(3'-indolyl)-1-(p-chlorophenyl)methane or amodiaquine increased phosphorylation levels of Akt and ERK1/2 as well as expression of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor and Ret genes in the cerebral cortex. These results suggest that the therapeutic effect of Nurr1 on striatal ICH is attributable to the preservation of CST by acting on cortical neurons.

Abstract
Background Early brain injury (EBI) caused by inflammatory responses in acute phase of Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) plays a vital role in the pathological progression of ICH. Increasing evidences demonstrate A1 reactive astrocytes are associated with the severity of EBI. G-protein coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER1) has been proved mediating the neuroprotective effects of estrogen in central nervous system (CNS) disease. However, whether GPER1 plays a protective effect on ICH and A1 reactive astrocytes activation is not well studied. Methods ICH model was established by infused the autologous whole blood into the right basal ganglia in wild type and GPER1 knockout mice. GPER1 specific agonist G1 and antagonist G15 were administered by intraperitoneal injection at 1 h or 0.5 h after ICH. Neurological function was detected on day 1 and day 3 by open field test and corner turn test following ICH. Besides, A1 reactive astrocytes were determined by immunofluorescence staining after ICH on day 3. To further identify the possible mechanism of GPER1 mediated neuroprotective effect, Western blot assays was performed after ICH on day 3. Results After ICH, G1 treatment alleviated mice neurobehavior deficits on day 1 and day 3. Meanwhile, G1 treatment also significantly reduced the GFAP positive astrocytes and the C3 positive cells after ICH. Interestingly, G15 reversed the protective effect of G1 on the neurobehavior of ICH mice. Meanwhile, the expression of GFAP+C3+ A1 reactive astrocytes were also reduced by activation of GPER1. Mechanistic studies indicated TLR4 and NF-κB mediated the neuroprotective effect of GPER1. Conclusion Generally, activation of GPER1 alleviated the EBI through inhibiting A1 reactive astrocytes activation via TLR4/NF-κB pathway after ICH in mice. Additionally, GPER1may be a promising target for ICH treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has significant morbidity and mortality. TXNIP and the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory mechanism involved in long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) play roles in ICH. We probed the upstream microRNAs (miRNAs)/lncRNAs that regulated TXNIP expression in the ceRNA mechanism. METHODS ICH mouse model was established, and ICH secondary injury was simulated in BV2 microglia by hemin treatment. TXNIP was silenced 48 h before ICH modeling. The ICH mouse brain water content (BWC) and brain lesion volume after ICH were recorded. Neuronal apoptosis and neurological deficits were evaluated by double staining of NeuN and TUNEL/modified Garcia/corner turn/forelimb placement tests. Iba1 + microglia number and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)/interleukin-1β (IL-1β)/IL-10/TXNIP/PVT1/miR-128-3p levels were assessed by immunohistochemistry, Western blot, ELISA, and RT-qPCR. Cell viability/death of BV2 cells conditioned medium-treated neuron HT22 cells were assessed by CCK-8/LDH assays. miRNA that had a targeted binding relationship with TXNIP was screened. The targeted bindings of miR-128-3p to TXNIP/PVT1 to miR-128-3p were verified by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. RESULTS TXNIP knockdown reduced post-ICH microglial activation/release of pro-inflammatory factors/brain edema/brain lesion volume/neurological deficits in mice and increased releases of anti-inflammatory factors. TXNIP/PVT1 knockdown inhibited hemin-induced inflammatory responses in BV2 cells and protected in vitro co-cultured HT22 cells. PVT1 was a sponge of miR-128-3p to repress TXNIP expression. miR-128-3p knockdown diminished PVT1 knockdown-inhibited hemin-induced BV2 cell inflammatory responses/neurotoxicity. CONCLUSIONS PVT1 silencing reduced hemin-induced neuroinflammation and had a protective effect on neurons by increasing the targeted inhibition of TXNIP by miR-128-3p.

Abstract
Depression is a mood disorder that causes persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, loss of interest, and decreased energy. Early diagnosis of depression can improve its negative impacts and be effective in its treatment. Previous studies have indicated that inflammation plays an important role in the initiation and development of depression, hence, various inflammatory biomarkers have been investigated for early diagnosis of depression, the most popular of which are blood biomarkers. The Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) may be more informative in the early diagnosis of depression than other widely used markers, such as other leukocyte characteristics or interleukins. Considering the importance of early diagnosis of depression and the role of NLR in early diagnosis of depression, our paper reviews the literature on NLR as a diagnostic biomarker of depression, which may be effective in its treatment. Various studies have shown that elevated NLR is associated with depression, suggesting that NLR may be a valuable, reproducible, easily accessible, and cost-effective method for the evaluation of depression and it may be used in outpatient clinic settings. Closer follow-up can be performed for these patients who have higher NLR levels. However, it seems that further studies on larger samples, taking into account important confounding factors, and assessing them together with other inflammatory markers are necessary to draw some conclusive statements.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) significantly induces neurological impairment. Previous studies showed that HDAC6 knockdown or TubA can protect the TNF-induced endothelial dysfunction. However, the role of HDAC6 inhibition on ICH-induced BBB disruption remains unknown. METHODS Hemin-induced human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMECs) and collagenase-induced rats were employed to investigated the underlying impact of the HDAC6 inhibition in BBB lesion and neuronal dysfunction after ICH. RESULTS We found a significant decrease in acetylated α-tubulin during early phase of ICH. Both 25 or 40 mg/kg of TubA could relieve neurological deficits, perihematomal cell apoptosis, and ipsilateral brain edema in ICH animal model. TubA or specific siRNA of HDAC6 inhibited apoptosis and reduced the endothelial permeability of HBMECs. HDAC6 inhibition rescued the degradation of TJ proteins and repaired TJs collapses after ICH induction. Finally, the results suggested that the protective effects on BBB after ICH induction were exerted via upregulating the acetylated α-tubulin and reducing stress fiber formation. CONCLUSIONS Inhibition of HDAC6 expression showed beneficial effects against BBB disruption after experimental ICH, which suggested that HDAC6 could be a novel and promising target for ICH treatment.

Abstract
AIMS Physical exercise has been widely recognized for its positive effects on health and well-being. Recently, the impact of exercise on the nervous system has gained attention, with evidence indicating improvements in attention, memory, neurogenesis, and the release of "happiness hormones." One potential mediator of these benefits is Irisin, a myokine induced by exercise that can cross the blood-brain barrier, reduce neuroinflammation, and counteract neurodegeneration. The objective of this study is to conduct a systematic review of animal trials to summarize the neuroprotective effects of Irisin injection in mitigating neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two independent reviewers screened three databases (PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar) in November 2022. Animal studies assessing the neuroprotective effects of Irisin in mitigating neuroinflammation or counteracting neurodegeneration were included. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed using SYRCLE's Risk of Bias tool. KEY FINDINGS Twelve studies met the inclusion criteria. Irisin injection in rodents significantly reduced neuroinflammation, cytokine cascades, and neurodegeneration. It also protected neurons from damage and apoptosis, reduced oxidative stress, blood-brain barrier disruption, and neurobehavioral deficits following disease or injury. Various mechanisms were suggested to be responsible for these neuroprotective effects. Most of the included studies presented a low risk of bias based on SYRCLE's Risk of Bias tool. Irisin injection demonstrated the potential to alleviate neuroinflammation and counteract neurodegeneration in rodent models through multiple pathways. However, further research is needed to fully understand its mechanism of action and its potential applications in clinical practice and drug discovery.

Abstract
Excessive neuroinflammation mediated by microglia has a detrimental effect on the progression of ischemic stroke. Eriocalyxin B (EriB) was found with a neuroprotective effect in mice with Parkinson's disease via the suppression of microglial overactivation. This study aimed to investigate the roles of EriB in permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) mice. The pMCAO was induced in the internal carotid artery of the mice by the intraluminal filament method, and EriB (10 mg/kg) was administered immediately after surgery by intraperitoneal injection. The behavior score, 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazole chloride staining, Nissl staining, TUNEL, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, PCR, ELISA, and immunoblotting revealed that EriB administration reduced brain infarct and neuron death and ameliorated neuroinflammation and microglia overactivation in pMCAO mice, manifested by alterations of TUNEL-positive cell numbers, ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba-1)-positive cell numbers, and expression of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin 6, IL-1β, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and arginase 1. In addition, EriB suppressed ischemia-induced activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling in the brain penumbra, suggesting the involvement of NF-κB in EriB function. In conclusion, EriB exerted anti-inflammatory effects in ischemia stroke by regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway, and this may provide insights into the neuroprotective effect of EriB in the treatment of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Stroke is a devastating cerebrovascular pathology with high morbidity and mortality. Inflammation plays a central role in the pathophysiology of stroke. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a promising immunomodulatory method that has shown positive effects in stroke treatment, including neuroprotection, anti-apoptosis, anti-inflammation, antioxidation, reduced infarct volume, improved neurological scores, and promotion of M2 microglial polarization. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about the vagus nerve's immunomodulatory effects through the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) and provide a comprehensive assessment of the available experimental literature focusing on the use of VNS in stroke treatment.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage is a life-threatening condition with a high fatality rate and severe sequelae. However, there is currently no treatment available for intracerebral hemorrhage, unlike for other stroke subtypes. Recent studies have indicated that mitochondrial dysfunction and mitophagy likely relate to the pathophysiology of intracerebral hemorrhage. Mitophagy, or selective autophagy of mitochondria, is an essential pathway to preserve mitochondrial homeostasis by clearing up damaged mitochondria. Mitophagy markedly contributes to the reduction of secondary brain injury caused by mitochondrial dysfunction after intracerebral hemorrhage. This review provides an overview of the mitochondrial dysfunction that occurs after intracerebral hemorrhage and the underlying mechanisms regarding how mitophagy regulates it, and discusses the new direction of therapeutic strategies targeting mitophagy for intracerebral hemorrhage, aiming to determine the close connection between mitophagy and intracerebral hemorrhage and identify new therapies to modulate mitophagy after intracerebral hemorrhage. In conclusion, although only a small number of drugs modulating mitophagy in intracerebral hemorrhage have been found thus far, most of which are in the preclinical stage and require further investigation, mitophagy is still a very valid and promising therapeutic target for intracerebral hemorrhage in the long run.

Abstract
AIM Stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) have a substantial role in neuronal formation, differentiation, remodeling, and maturation and participate in multiple physiological and pathological events. In this study, we investigated the role of SDF-1/CXCR4 in neural functional injury and neuroprotection after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS Western blot, immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation were used to detect SDF-1/CXCR4 expression and combination respectively after ICH. TUNEL staining, Lactate dehydrogenase assay, Reactive oxygen species assay, and Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to study neuronal damage; Brain water content to assay brain edema, Neurological scores to assess short-term neurological deficits. Pharmacological inhibition and genetic intervention of SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling were also used in this study. RESULTS ICH induced upregulation of SDF-1/CXCR4 and increased their complex formation, whereas AMD3100 significantly reduced it. The levels of TNF-α and IL-1β were significantly reduced after AMD3100 treatment. Additionally, AMD3100 treatment can alleviate neurobehavioral dysfunction of ICH rats. Conversely, simultaneous SDF-1/CXCR4 overexpression induced the opposite effect. Moreover, immunoprecipitation confirmed that SDF-1/CXCR4 combined to initiate neurodamage effects. CONCLUSION This study indicated that inhibition of SDF-1/CXCR4 complex formation can rescue the inflammatory response and alleviate neurobehavioral dysfunction after ICH. SDF-1/CXCR4 may have applications as a therapeutic target after ICH.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a type of cell death that occurs when cells are exposed to external stressors such as inflammation, infections, or injury. In necroptosis, cells use a different set of proteins including: receptor-interacting kinase 1 (RIPK1 or RIP1), receptor-interacting kinase 3 (RIPK3 or RIP3) and the phosphorylation of its substrate mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) and pathways to trigger their own death. Mutations in the gene encoding RIPK3 have been associated with many diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases, neuroinflammatory diseases, inflammatory diseases,tumors, and it is being studied as a potential target for inflammatory injury therapy. RIPK3 has also been implicated in the pathology of neuroinflammation following Traumatic brain injury and is currently being explored as a potential therapy. We screened through necroptosis blocking compounds, a library of FDA-approved compounds. We found four compounds:1D6-Foretinib GSK1363089; 15F6-Poziotinib (HM781-36B); 15F9-Dasatinib monohydrate; 15A10-Pexmetinib (ARRY-614); acts as potent inhibitors of necroptosis (Necroptosis Blocking Compounds, NBCs) by blocking the RIPK3 kinase activity. These four compounds effectively block necroptosis induced by death receptor ligands Toll-like receptors as well as viral infections in human, rat and mouse cells. The cellular activation of RIPK3 and MLKL stimulated by necroptosis was strongly inhibited by NBCs. The compounds are promising for targeting RIPK3 kinase activity, thereby preventing necroptosis and inflammatory responses. In our study, we explored the role of NBCs in neuroprotection after traumatic brain injury. It's effectiveness in traumatic brain injury animal models and favorable safety profiles make it a potential candidate for the advances of new therapies for necroptosis-associated neuroinflammatory disorders.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Licorice is a medicinal herb with a 2000-year history of applications in traditional Chinese medicine. Isoliquiritigenin (ISL) is a bioactive chalcone compound isolated from licorice. It has attracted increasing attention in recent years due to its excellent anti-inflammatory activity. AIM OF THE STUDY This study is to provide a comprehensive summary of the anti-inflammatory activity of ISL and the underlying molecular mechanisms, and discuss new insights for its potential clinical applications as an anti-inflammation agent. MATERIALS AND METHODS We examined literatures published in the past twenty years from PubMed, Research Gate, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and SciFinder, with single or combined key words of "isoliquiritigenin", "inflammation", and "anti-inflammatory". RESULTS ISL elicits its anti-inflammatory activity by mediating various cellular processes. It inhibits the upstream of the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway and activates the nuclear factor erythroid related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway. In addition, it suppresses the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) pathway and restrains the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. CONCLUSIONS Current studies indicate a great therapeutical potential of ISL as a drug candidate for treatment of inflammation-associated diseases. However, the pharmacokinetics, biosafety, and bioavailability of ISL remain to be further investigated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential diagnostic and prognostic implications of inflammatory cytokine levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) upon their initial hospital admission. METHODS Our cohort included 100 patients diagnosed with acute SICH, presenting to the Department of Neurosurgery. Additionally, we recruited 50 individuals without central nervous system (CNS) pathology, treated concurrently at our facility, as controls. CSF samples, collected upon hospital entry, were quantitatively assessed for 10 inflammatory cytokines using the Mesoscale Discovery Platform (MSD, Rockville, MD, USA) electrochemiluminescence technology, followed by validation through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS We observed a marked elevation of IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α in the CSF of the SICH subgroup compared to controls. Higher Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores in SICH patients corresponded with lower CSF concentrations of IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α, indicating an inverse relationship. Notably, CSF inflammatory cytokine levels were consistently higher in SICH patients with hydrocephalus than in those without. Increases in IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α in the CSF were notably more pronounced in the poor prognosis group (Glasgow Outcome Scale, GOS 1-3) compared to those with a favorable prognosis (GOS 4-5). The AUC values for these cytokines in predicting SICH prognosis were 0.750, 0.728, 0.717, and 0.743, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Initial CSF levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α upon admission provide significant insights into the severity of neural damage and are robust indicators for prognosis in SICH patients.

Abstract
This research aimed to explore the COVID-19 infection in the prognosis of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), as well as analyzed the risk factors of the poor prognosis. This present prospective observational cohort study enrolled 136 patients with ICH who were admitted in our hospital during May 2020 to July 2022. The diagnosis of COVID-19 was confirmed by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. All patients were collected demographic and clinical data and were followed up for 3 months, and we used the modified Rankin scale (mRS) to assess the prognosis of ICH patients, mRS score ≥ 3 indicated a bad prognosis and mRS score ≤ 2 indicated a good prognosis. All data used SPSS 18.0 for statistical analyses. The mRS score after 3 months of patients in COVID-19 group were also remarkably elevated than that in the patients in control group (P < .05). The levels of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), D-dimer (D-D) were remarkably enhanced in the ICH patients in COVID-19 group compared to the control group (P < .05). The national institutes of health stroke scale scores, hematoma volume, the serum levels of white blood cell, FPG, D-D and the proportion of patients with diabetes were significantly higher while the Glasgow coma scale scores were significantly lower in bad prognosis group (P < .05). In addition, we found a significantly higher rate of COVID-19 infections in ICH patients with poor prognosis (P < .05). Infection of COVID-19, FPG, white blood cell, national institutes of health stroke scale, Glasgow coma scale and hematoma volume were the risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with ICH. This study showed that the proportion of patients with diabetes, the mRS score after 3 months and the levels of FPG, D-D were remarkably elevated in the ICH patients in COVID-19 group compared to the control group. This study may provide the effective preventive and treatment measures for the burden of ICH on families and society.

Abstract
Among the diseases threatening maize production in Africa are gray leaf spot (GLS) caused by Cercospora zeina and northern corn leaf blight (NCLB) caused by Exserohilum turcicum. The two pathogens, which have high genetic diversity, reduce the photosynthesizing ability of susceptible genotypes and, hence, reduce the grain yield. To identify population-based quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for GLS and NCLB resistance, a biparental population of 230 lines derived from the tropical maize parents CML511 and CML546 and an association mapping panel of 239 tropical and sub-tropical inbred lines were phenotyped across multi-environments in western Kenya. Based on 1,264 high-quality polymorphic single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the biparental population, we identified 10 and 18 QTLs, which explained 64.2% and 64.9% of the total phenotypic variance for GLS and NCLB resistance, respectively. A major QTL for GLS, qGLS1_186 accounted for 15.2% of the phenotypic variance, while qNCLB3_50 explained the most phenotypic variance at 8.8% for NCLB resistance. Association mapping with 230,743 markers revealed 11 and 16 SNPs significantly associated with GLS and NCLB resistance, respectively. Several of the SNPs detected in the association panel were co-localized with QTLs identified in the biparental population, suggesting some consistent genomic regions across genetic backgrounds. These would be more relevant to use in field breeding to improve resistance to both diseases. Genomic prediction models trained on the biparental population data yielded average prediction accuracies of 0.66-0.75 for the disease traits when validated in the same population. Applying these prediction models to the association panel produced accuracies of 0.49 and 0.75 for GLS and NCLB, respectively. This research conducted in maize fields relevant to farmers in western Kenya has combined linkage and association mapping to identify new QTLs and confirm previous QTLs for GLS and NCLB resistance. Overall, our findings imply that genetic gain can be improved in maize breeding for resistance to multiple diseases including GLS and NCLB by using genomic selection.

Abstract
It is now understood that hemolysis and the subsequent release of heme into circulation play a critical role in driving the progression of various diseases. Hemopexin (HPX), a heme-binding protein with the highest affinity for heme in plasma, serves as an effective antagonist against heme toxicity resulting from severe acute or chronic hemolysis. In the present study, changes in HPX concentration were characterized at different stages of hemolytic diseases, underscoring its potential as a biomarker for assessing disease progression and prognosis. In many heme overload-driven conditions, such as sickle cell disease, transfusion-induced hemolysis, and sepsis, endogenous HPX levels are often insufficient to provide protection. Consequently, there is growing interest in developing HPX therapeutics to mitigate toxic heme exposure. Strategies include HPX supplementation when endogenous levels are depleted and enhancing HPX's functionality through modifications, offering a potent defense against heme toxicity. It is worth noting that HPX may also exert deleterious effects under certain circumstances. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of HPX's roles in the progression and prognosis of hematological diseases. It highlights HPX-based clinical therapies for different hematological disorders, discusses advancements in HPX production and modification technologies, and offers a theoretical basis for the clinical application of HPX.

[PMID: 37920838 PMCID: PMC10618669 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2023.1221335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Aim Prognostic assessment plays an important role in the effective management of patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The study aimed to investigate whether elevated red cell distribution width-to-platelet ratio (RPR) at admission was related to 30-day death in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Methods This retrospective cohort study included 2,823 adult patients with ICH from the Multiparameter Intelligent Monitoring in Intensive Care (MIMIC) III and IV databases between 2001 and 2019. The Cox proportional hazard model was utilized to evaluate the relationship between RPR levels and 30-day death risk. The area under receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to assess the predictive ability of RPR for 30-day death in patients with ICH. Results At the end of the 30-day follow-up, 799 (28.30%) patients died, and the median RPR level was 0.066 (0.053, 0.087). After adjusting for confounders, the tertile 3 of RPR levels [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.37, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.15-1.64] were associated with a higher risk of 30-day death in patients with ICH compared with tertile 1. In the stratified analyses, elevated RPR levels were found to be associated with an increased risk of 30-day death in patients aged <65 years (HR = 1.77, 95%CI: 1.29-2.43), aged ≥65 years (HR = 1.30, 95%CI: 1.05-1.61), with Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) <14 (HR = 1.65, 95%CI: 1.27-2.14), with Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) ≥4 (HR = 1.45, 95%CI: 1.17-1.80), with (HR = 1.66, 95%CI: 1.13-2.43) or without sepsis (HR = 1.32, 95%CI: 1.08-1.61), and female patients (HR = 1.75, 95%CI: 1.35-2.26) but not in male patients (P = 0.139) and patients with GCS ≥14 (P = 0.058) or CCI <4 (P = 0.188). The AUC for RPR to predict 30-day death in patients with ICH was 0.795 (95%CI: 0.763-0.828) in the testing set, indicating a good predictive ability. Conclusion Elevated RPR levels were correlated with an increased risk of 30-day death in patients with ICH, and RPP levels showed good predictive ability for 30-day death.

Multi-time point metabolomics reveals key metabolic features from the ultra-early stage of intracerebral hemorrhage in mice. Exp Neurol 2023; 368:114507. [PMID: 37598880 DOI: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2023.114507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Revised: 08/10/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023]
Abstract
Despite decades of intensive research, there are still very limited options for the effective treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Recently, mounting evidence has indicated that the ultra-early stage (<3 h), serving as the primary phase of ICH, plays a pivotal role and may even surpass other stages in terms of its significance. Therefore, uncovering the metabolic alterations induced by ICH in the ultra-early stage is of crucial importance. To investigate this, the collagenase ICH mouse model was employed in this study. ICH or sham-operated mice were euthanized at the ultra-early stage of 3 h and the acute stage of 24 h and 72 h after the operation. Then, the metabolic changes in the perihematomal tissues were detected by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. In total, alterations in the levels of 465 metabolites were detected. A total of 136 metabolites were significantly changed at 3 h. At 24 h and 72 h, the amounts were 132 and 126, respectively. Additionally, the key corresponding metabolic pathways for these time points were analyzed through KEGG. To gather additional information, quantitative real-time transcription polymerase chain reaction, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blots were performed to validate the metabolic changes. Overall, ICH significantly alters important physiological functions such as cysteine metabolism, purine metabolism, synaptic alterations, the synaptic vesicle cycle, and the ATP-binding cassette transporter system. These might be the key pathologic mechanisms of the ultra-early stage induced by ICH.

Abstract
Background Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a severe stroke subtype with a high mortality rate; the lactate-to-albumin ratio (LAR) is a new biomarker for predicting clinical outcomes in patients with ICH. However, the relationship between LAR and mortality in patients with ICH treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) remains controversial. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the association between LAR and in-hospital and ICU mortality in patients with ICH. Methods Patients with ICH were selected from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III (MIMIC-III) database; their clinical information, including baseline characteristics, vital signs, comorbidities, laboratory test results, and scoring systems, was extracted. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards analyses were used to investigate the association of LAR with in-hospital and ICU mortality. The maximum selection statistical method and subgroup analysis were used to investigate these relationships further. Kaplan-Meier (KM) analysis was used to draw survival curves. Results This study enrolled 237 patients with ICH whose lactate and albumin levels, with median values of 1.975 and 3.6 mg/dl, respectively, were measured within the first 24 h after ICU admission. LAR had an association with increased risk of in-hospital mortality [unadjusted hazards ratio (HR), 1.79; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.32-2.42; p < 0.001] and ICU mortality (unadjusted HR, 1.88; 95% CI, 1.38-2.55; p < 0.001). A cut-off value of 0.963 mg/dl was used to classify patients into high LAR (≥0.963) and low LAR (<0.963) groups, and survival curves suggested that those two groups had significant survival differences (p = 0.0058 and 0.0048, respectively). Furthermore, the high LAR group with ICH had a significantly increased risk of in-hospital and ICU mortality compared to the low LAR group. Conclusion Our study suggests that a high LAR is associated with an increased risk of in-hospital and ICU mortality in patients with ICH. Thus, the LAR is a useful prognostic predictor of clinical outcomes in patients with ICH.

Abstract
Leukocyte common antigen-related phosphatase (LAR) is widely expressed in the central nervous system and is known to regulate a variety of processes including cell growth, differentiation, and inflammation. However, little is currently known about LAR signaling mediated neuroinflammation after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The objective of this study was to investigate the role of LAR in ICH using autologous blood injection-induced ICH mouse model. Expression of endogenous proteins, brain edema and neurological function after ICH were evaluated. Extracellular LAR peptide (ELP), an inhibitor of LAR, was administered to ICH mice and outcomes were evaluated. LAR activating-CRISPR or IRS inhibitor NT-157 was administered to elucidate the mechanism. The results showed that expressions of LAR, its endogenous agonist chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) including neurocan and brevican, and downstream factor RhoA increased after ICH. Administration of ELP reduced brain edema, improved neurological function, and decreased microglia activation after ICH. ELP decreased RhoA and phosphorylated serine-IRS1, increased phosphorylated tyrosine-IRS1 and p-Akt, and attenuated neuroinflammation after ICH, which was reversed by LAR activating-CRISPR or NT-157. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that LAR contributed to neuroinflammation after ICH via RhoA/IRS-1 pathway, and ELP may be a potential therapeutic strategy to attenuate LAR mediated neuroinflammation after ICH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chronic hydrocephalus requiring shunt placement is a common complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Different risk factors and prediction scores for post-SAH shunt dependency have been evaluated so far. We analyzed the value of ventricle measurements for prediction of the need for shunt placement in SAH patients. METHODS Eligible SAH cases treated between 01/2003 and 06/2016 were included. Initial computed tomography scans were reviewed to measure ventricle indices (bifrontal, bicaudate, Evans', ventricular, Huckman's, and third ventricle ratio). Previously introduced CHESS and SDASH scores for shunt dependency were calculated. Receiver operating characteristic analyses were performed for diagnostic accuracy of the ventricle indices and to identify the clinically relevant cut-offs. RESULTS Shunt placement followed in 221 (36.5%) of 606 patients. In univariate analyses, all ventricular indices were associated with shunting (all: p<0.0001). The area under the curve (AUC) ranged between 0.622 and 0.662. In multivariate analyses, only Huckman's index was associated with shunt dependency (cut-off at ≥6.0cm, p<0.0001) independent of the CHESS score as baseline prediction model. A combined score (0-10 points) containing the CHESS score components (0-8 points) and Huckman's index (+2 points) showed better diagnostic accuracy (AUC=0.751) than the CHESS (AUC=0.713) and SDASH (AUC=0.693) scores and the highest overall model quality (0.71 vs. 0.65 and 0.67), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Ventricle measurements are feasible for early prediction of shunt placement after SAH. The combined prediction model containing the CHESS score and Huckman's index showed remarkable diagnostic accuracy regarding identification of SAH individuals requiring shunt placement. External validation of the presented combined CHESS-Huckman score is mandatory.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a severe subtype of stroke for which there is no effective treatment. Stem cell and exosome (Exo) therapies have great potential as new approaches for neuroprotection and neurorestoration in treating ICH. We aimed to investigate whether Exo affects ICH by regulating the ecology of gut microbiota and metabolism and the mechanisms involved. First, differential miRNAs in ICH were screened by bioinformatics and verified by qRT-PCR. Then, Exo was extracted from mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and identified. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was utilized to verify the binding relationship between miR-150-3p and TRAF6. A mouse ICH model was constructed and treated with Exo. Next, we knocked down miR-150-3p and performed fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Then changes in gut microbiota and differential metabolites were detected by 16S rRNA sequencing and metabolomics analysis. We found that miR-150-3p expression was lowest in the brain tissue of the ICH group compared to the Sham group. Besides, low miR-150-3p level in ICH was encapsulated by MSC-derived Exo. Moreover, miR-150-3p bound to TRAF6 and was negatively correlated. With the addition of ExomiR-150-3p inhibitor, we found that MSC-derived exosomal miR-150-3p may affect ICH injury via TRAF6/NLRP3 axis. MSC-derived exosomal miR-150-3p caused changes in gut microbiota, including Proteobacteria, Muribaculaceae, Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, and Acinetobacter. Moreover, MSC-derived exosomal miR-150-3p caused changes in metabolism. After further FMT, gut microbiota-mediated MSC-derived Exo affected ICH with reduced apoptosis and reduced levels of inflammatory factors. In conclusion, MSC-derived exosomal miR-150-3p affected ICH by regulating TRAF6/NF-κB axis, gut microbiota and metabolism.

Abstract
Spontaneous non-aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (NAPMSAH) (addressing point 1) is a relatively rare occurrence in clinical settings as it is rarely misdiagnosed and usually involves a significantly better prognosis than the classical aneurysmal pattern. We hereby focused on a comprehensive analysis of this distinct pathological entity with the purpose of analysing possible pathophysiological entities, outcomes and treatment options involving this diagnosis with a focus on demographical, epidemiological and clinical data. The clinical setting includes focal neurological signs related to the anatomical structures, while computer tomography followed by tomographic angiography are the most common diagnosis tools, with a typical hyperdense lesion involving the midbrain, fourth ventricle and subthalamic areas without an angiographic correspondent, such as an aneurysmal pathology. Further investigations can also be used to highlight this diagnosis, such as interventional angiography or magnetic resonance imaging. Given the rarity of this condition and its relatively better prognosis, treatment options usually remain conservative. In the present review, the main characteristics of NAPMSAH are discussed.

Secondary White Matter Injury Mediated by Neuroinflammation after Intracerebral Hemorrhage and Promising Therapeutic Strategies of Targeting the NLRP3 Inflammasome.

[PMID: 36043798 PMCID: PMC10207923 DOI: 10.2174/1570159x20666220830115018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2022] [Revised: 07/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a neurological disease with high mortality and disability. Recent studies showed that white matter injury (WMI) plays an important role in motor dysfunction after ICH. WMI includes WMI proximal to the lesion and WMI distal to the lesion, such as corticospinal tract injury located at the cervical enlargement of the spinal cord after ICH. Previous studies have tended to focus only on gray matter (GM) injury after ICH, and fewer studies have paid attention to WMI, which may be one of the reasons for the poor outcome of previous drug treatments. Microglia and astrocyte-mediated neuroinflammation are significant mechanisms responsible for secondary WMI following ICH. The NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation, has been shown to exacerbate neuroinflammation and brain injury after ICH. Moreover, NLRP3 inflammasome is activated in microglia and astrocytes and exerts a vital role in microglia and astrocytes-mediated neuroinflammation. We speculate that NLRP3 inflammasome activation is closely related to the polarization of microglia and astrocytes and that NLRP3 inflammasome activation may exacerbate WMI by polarizing microglia and astrocytes to the pro-inflammatory phenotype after ICH, while NLRP3 inflammasome inhibition may attenuate WMI by polarizing microglia and astrocytes to the anti-inflammatory phenotype following ICH. Therefore, NLRP3 inflammasome may act as leveraged regulatory fulcrums for microglia and astrocytes polarization to modulate WMI and WM repair after ICH. This review summarized the possible mechanisms by which neuroinflammation mediated by NLRP3 inflammasome exacerbates secondary WMI after ICH and discussed the potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Purpose: This study investigated the relationship between preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and severe postoperative edema and ecchymosis after open rhinoplasty.
Materials and Methods: The study was carried out retrospectively in 165 ASA I-II patients aged 18-45 years who underwent open rhinoplasty in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. The patients were grouped based on their scores on the edema and ecchymosis scales. The degree of edema and ecchymosis was considered “minimal” (Group M) in those scoring 0-2 points and “severe” (Group S) in those scoring 3-4 points. Periorbital edema and ecchymosis of the patients in both groups were scored based on the digital photographs taken on the 1st postoperative day.
Results: There was no significant difference in the demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients grouped according to the degree of edema and ecchymosis. The optimal cut-off value of NLR was 2.1 (AUC = 0.747, Sensitivity = 0.666, Specificity = 0.707) for edema and 1.5 (AUC = 0.747, Sensitivity = 0.869, Specificity = 0.470) for ecchymosis. Multivariable analyzes for the development of edema and ecchymosis identified NLR (4.67 [2.38-9.40] and 6.54 [3.02-15.08, respectively) as a statistically significant independent prognostic factor.
Conclusion: This study identified preoperative NLR as a predictor value of severe postoperative edema and ecchymosis after open rhinoplasty.

Liangxue Tongyu Prescription Alleviates Brain Damage in Acute Intracerebral Hemorrhage Rats by Regulating Intestinal Mucosal Barrier Function. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:2197763. [PMID: 36573082 PMCID: PMC9789913 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2197763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2022] [Revised: 11/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Background Liangxue Tongyu prescription (LTP) is a commonly used formula for acute intracerebral hemorrhage (AICH) in clinical practice that has significant ameliorative effects on neurological deficits and gastrointestinal dysfunction, yet the mechanism remains elusive. The aim of this study was to investigate the pathway by which LTP alleviates brain damage in AICH rats. Methods The AICH rat models were established by autologous caudal arterial blood injection. The neurological function scores were evaluated before and after treatment. The water content and the volume of Evans blue staining in the brain were measured to reflect the degree of brain damage. RT-PCR was used to detect the inflammatory factors of the brain. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of the tight junction proteins zonula occludens 1 (ZO-1), occludin (OCLN), and claudin (CLDN) in the brain and colon, followed by mucin 2 (MUC2), secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA), and G protein-coupled receptor 43 (GPR43) in the colon. Flow cytometry was used to detect the ratios of helper T cells 17 (Th17) and regulatory T cells (Treg) in peripheral blood, and the vagus nerve (VN) discharge signals were collected. Results LTP reduced the brain damage of the AICH rats. Compared with the model group, LTP significantly improved the permeability of the colonic mucosa, promoted the secretion of MUC2, SigA, and GPR43 in the colon, and regulated the immune balance of peripheral T cells. The AICH rats had significantly faster VN discharge rates and lower amplitudes than normal rats, and these abnormalities were corrected in the LTP and probiotics groups. Conclusion LTP can effectively reduce the degree of brain damage in AICH rats, and the mechanism may be that it can play a neuroprotective role by regulating the function of the intestinal mucosal barrier.

Abstract
To confirm whether machine learning algorithms (MLA) can achieve an effective risk stratification of dying within 7 days after basal ganglia hemorrhage (BGH). We collected patients with BGH admitted to Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital between August 2005 and August 2021. We developed standard ML-supervised models and fusion models to assess the prognostic risk of patients with BGH and compared them with the classical logistic regression model. We also use the SHAP algorithm to provide clinical interpretability. 1383 patients with BGH were included and divided into the conservative treatment group (CTG) and surgical treatment group (STG). In CTG, the Stack model has the highest sensitivity (78.5%). In STG, Weight-Stack model achieves 58.6% sensitivity and 85.1% specificity, and XGBoost achieves 61.4% sensitivity and 82.4% specificity. The SHAP algorithm shows that the predicted preferred characteristics of the CTG are consciousness, hemorrhage volume, prehospital time, break into ventricles, brain herniation, intraoperative blood loss, and hsCRP were also added to the STG. XGBoost, Stack, and Weight-Stack models combined with easily available clinical data enable risk stratification of BGH patients with high performance. These ML classifiers could assist clinicians and families to identify risk states timely when emergency admission and offer medical care and nursing information.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neuroinflammation plays an important role following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis contributes to the mechanism of neuroinflammation. It has been reported that dendritic cell-associated C-type lectin-1 (Dectin-1) activation triggers inflammation in neurological diseases. However, the role of Dectin-1 on NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis after ICH remains unclear. Here, we aimed to explore the effect of Dectin-1 on NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis and neuroinflammation after ICH. METHODS Adult male C57BL/6 mice were used to establish the ICH model. Laminarin, an inhibitor of Dectin-1, was administered for intervention. Expression of Dectin-1 was evaluated by Western blot and immunofluorescence. Brain water content and neurobehavioral function were tested to assess brain edema and neurological performance. Western blot was conducted to evaluate the level of GSDMD-N. ELISA kits were used to measure the levels of IL-1β and IL-18. qRT-PCR and Western blot were performed to evaluate the expressions of NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1β, and IL-18. RESULTS The expression of Dectin-1 increased following ICH, and Dectin-1 was expressed on microglia. In addition, inhibition of Dectin-1 by laminarin decreased brain edema and neurological impairment after ICH. Moreover, inhibition of Dectin-1 decreased the expression of pyroptosis-related protein, GSDMD-N, and inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-18). Mechanistically, Dectin-1 blockade inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation, thereby alleviating neuroinflammatory injury by attenuating NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis both in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSION Our study indicates that the inhibition of Dectin-1 alleviates neuroinflammation by attenuating NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis after ICH.

Abstract
Background and purposeHematoma expansion (HE) is a critical event following acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to construct a non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) model combining clinical characteristics, radiological signs, and radiomics features to predict HE in patients with spontaneous ICH and to develop a nomogram to assess the risk of early HE.Materials and methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 388 patients with ICH who underwent initial NCCT within 6 h after onset and follow-up CT within 24 h after initial NCCT, between January 2015 and December 2021. Using the LASSO algorithm or stepwise logistic regression analysis, five models (clinical model, radiological model, clinical-radiological model, radiomics model, and combined model) were developed to predict HE in the training cohort (n = 235) and independently verified in the test cohort (n = 153). The Akaike information criterion (AIC) and the likelihood ratio test (LRT) were used for comparing the goodness of fit of the five models, and the AUC was used to evaluate their ability in discriminating HE. A nomogram was developed based on the model with the best performance.ResultsThe combined model (AIC = 202.599, χ2 = 80.6) was the best fitting model with the lowest AIC and the highest LRT chi-square value compared to the clinical model (AIC = 232.263, χ2 = 46.940), radiological model (AIC = 227.932, χ2 = 51.270), clinical-radiological model (AIC = 212.711, χ2 = 55.490) or radiomics model (AIC = 217.647, χ2 = 57.550). In both cohorts, the nomogram derived from the combined model showed satisfactory discrimination and calibration for predicting HE (AUC = 0.900, sensitivity = 83.87%; AUC = 0.850, sensitivity = 80.10%, respectively).ConclusionThe NCCT-based model combining clinical characteristics, radiological signs, and radiomics features could efficiently discriminate early HE, and the nomogram derived from the combined model, as a non-invasive tool, exhibited satisfactory performance in stratifying HE risks.

Abstract
Microglia are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS) and play a key role in neurological diseases, including intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Microglia are activated to acquire either pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory phenotypes. After the onset of ICH, pro-inflammatory mediators produced by microglia at the early stages serve as a crucial character in neuroinflammation. Conversely, switching the microglial shift to an anti-inflammatory phenotype could alleviate inflammatory response and incite recovery. This review will elucidate the dynamic profiles of microglia phenotypes and their available shift following ICH. This study can facilitate an understanding of the self-regulatory functions of the immune system involving the shift of microglia phenotypes in ICH. Moreover, suggestions for future preclinical and clinical research and potential intervention strategies are discussed.

Alpha-asarone ameliorates neurological deterioration of intracerebral hemorrhagic rats by alleviating secondary brain injury via anti-excitotoxicity pathways. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 105:154363.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secondary brain injury (SBI) has been confirmed as a leading cause for the poor prognosis of patients suffering from intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). SBI co-exists in ischemia and hemorrhagic stroke. Neuro-excitotoxicity is considered the initiating factor of ICH-induced SBI. Our previous research has revealed alpha-asarone (ASA)'s efficacy against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion stroke by mitigating neuro-excitotoxicity. It is not yet known if ASA exhibit neuroprotection against ICH. PURPOSE This work aimed to investigate ASA's therapeutic effects and potential mechanisms of action against ICH in a classic rat model induced by collagenase Ⅶ injection. METHODS An in vivo ICH model of Sprague-Dawley rats was established by collagenase Ⅶ injection. We administrated different ASA doses (10, 20, or 40 mg/kg, i.p.) at 2 h post-ICH. Then, rats' short- and long-term neurobehavioral function, bodyweight change, and learning and memory ability were blindly evaluated. Histological, Nissl, and flow cytometry were applied to assess the neuronal damage post-ICH. The wet/dry method and Evans blue extravasation estimated brain edema and blood-brain barrier function. Pathway-related proteins were investigated by immunofluorescence staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and Western-blot analysis. RESULTS The results demonstrated that ASA ameliorated neurological deterioration, bodyweight loss, and learning and memory ability of ICH rats. Histological, Nissl, and flow cytometry analyses showed that ASA reduced neuronal damage and apoptosis post-ICH. Besides, ASA probably mitigated brain edema and blood-brain barrier dysfunction via inhibiting astrocyte activation and consequent pro-inflammatory response. The mechanism investigation attributed ASA's efficacy to the following aspects: 1) promoting sodium ion excretion, thus blocking excitatory signal transduction along the axon; 2) preventing glutamate-involved pathways, i.e., decrease of N-methyl-d-aspartic acid receptor subunit 2B, increase of glutamate transporter-1, and alleviation of calcium-related cascades, mitochondrion-associated apoptosis, and neuronal autophagy; 3) enhancing the expression of GABAARs, thus abating neuronal excitotoxicity. CONCLUSION Our study first confirmed the effect of ASA on ameliorating the neurobehavioral deterioration of ICH rats, possibly via alleviation of glutamate-involved neuro-excitotoxicity, i.e., calcium cascades, mitochondrion-involved apoptosis, neuronal autophagy, and astrocyte-related inflammation. These findings not only provided a promising drug candidate for clinical treatment of ICH but also shed light on the future drug discovery against ICH.

Abstract
Stroke is the leading cause of disability and death worldwide, with ischemic stroke occurring in ~5% of the global population every year. Recently, many studies have been conducted on the inflammatory response after stroke. Microglial/macrophage polarization has a dual function and is critical to the pathology of ischemic stroke. Microglial/macrophage activation is important in reducing neuronal apoptosis, enhancing neurogenesis, and promoting functional recovery after ischemic stroke. In this review, we investigate the physiological characteristics and functions of microglia in the brain, the activation and phenotypic polarization of microglia and macrophages after stroke, the signaling mechanisms of polarization states, and the contribution of microglia to brain pathology and repair. We summarize recent advances in stroke-related microglia research, highlighting breakthroughs in therapeutic strategies for microglial responses after stroke, thereby providing new ideas for the treatment of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a common lethal subtype of stroke accounting for nearly 10–15% of the total stroke disease and affecting two million people worldwide, has a high mortality and disability rate and, thus, a major socioeconomic burden. However, there is no effective treatment available currently. The role of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in regenerative medicine is well known owing to the simplicity of acquisition from various sources, low immunogenicity, adaptation to the autogenic and allogeneic systems, immunomodulation, self-recovery by secreting extracellular vesicles (EVs), regenerative repair, and antioxidative stress. MSC therapy provides an increasingly attractive therapeutic approach for ICH. Recently, the functions of MSCs such as neuroprotection, anti-inflammation, and improvement in synaptic plasticity have been widely researched in human and rodent models of ICH. MSC transplantation has been proven to improve ICH-induced injury, including the damage of nerve cells and oligodendrocytes, the activation of microglia and astrocytes, and the destruction of blood vessels. The improvement and recovery of neurological functions in rodent ICH models were demonstrated via the mechanisms such as neurogenesis, angiogenesis, anti-inflammation, anti-apoptosis, and synaptic plasticity. Here, we discuss the pathological mechanisms following ICH and the therapeutic mechanisms of MSC-based therapy to unravel new cues for future therapeutic strategies. Furthermore, some potential strategies for enhancing the therapeutic function of MSC transplantation have also been suggested.

Front Neurol 2022; 13:886329.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the biomarkers implicated in the development of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and potential regulatory pathways. In the transcriptomic data for patients with ICH, we identified DEmiRNAs and DEmRNAs related to hypoxia, inflammation, and their transcription factors (TFs). An ICH-based miRNA-TF-mRNA regulatory network was thus constructed, and four biomarkers (TIMP1, PLAUR, DDIT3, and CD40) were screened for their association with inflammation or hypoxia by machine learning. Following this, SP3 was found to be a transcription factor involved in hypoxia and inflammation, which regulates TIMP1 and PLAUR. From the constructed miRNA-TF-mRNA regulatory network, we identified three axes, hsa-miR-940/RUNX1/TIMP1, hsa-miR-571/SP3/TIMP1, and hsa-miR-571/SP3/PLAUR, which may be involved in the development of ICH. Upregulated TIMP1 and PLAUR were validated in an independent clinical cohort 3 days after ICH onset. According to Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), SP3 was discovered to be important in interleukin signaling and platelet activation for hemostasis. Transcription factor SP3 associated with hypoxia or inflammation plays an important role in development of ICH. This study provides potential targets for monitoring the severity of inflammation and hypoxia in patients with ICH.

Abstract
Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the world. However, the pathophysiological process of stroke is still not fully clarified. Mitochondria play an important role in promoting nerve survival and are an important drug target for the treatment of stroke. Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the hallmarks of stroke. Mitochondria are in a state of continuous fission and fusion, which are termed as mitochondrial dynamics. Mitochondrial dynamics are very important for maintaining various functions of mitochondria. In this review, we will introduce the structure and functions of mitochondrial fission and fusion related proteins and discuss their role in the pathophysiologic process of stroke. A better understanding of mitochondrial dynamin in stroke will pave way for the development of new therapeutic options.

Redistribution of Histone Marks on Inflammatory Genes Associated With Intracerebral Hemorrhage-Induced Acute Brain Injury in Aging Rats. Front Neurosci 2022; 16:639656.

Abstract
The contribution of histone mark redistribution to the age-induced decline of endogenous neuroprotection remains unclear. In this study, we used an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)-induced acute brain injury rat model to study the transcriptional and chromatin responses in 13- and 22-month-old rats. Transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq) revealed that the expression of neuroinflammation-associated genes was systematically upregulated in ICH rat brains, irrespective of age. Further, we found that interferon-γ (IFN-γ) response genes were activated in both 13- and 22-month-old rats. Anti-IFN-γ treatment markedly reduced ICH-induced acute brain injury in 22-month-old rats. At the chromatin level, ICH induced the redistribution of histone modifications in the promoter regions, especially H3K4me3 and H3K27me3, in neuroinflammation-associated genes in 13- and 22-month-old rats, respectively. Moreover, ICH-induced histone mark redistribution and gene expression were found to be correlated. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that histone modifications related to gene expression are extensively regulated in 13- and 22-month-old rats and that anti-IFN-γ is effective for ICH treatment, highlighting the potential of developing therapies targeting histone modifications to cure age-related diseases, including brain injury and neuroinflammation.

Irisin ameliorates neuroinflammation and neuronal apoptosis through integrin αVβ5/AMPK signaling pathway after intracerebral hemorrhage in mice. J Neuroinflammation 2022; 19:82. [PMID: 35392928 PMCID: PMC8988353 DOI: 10.1186/s12974-022-02438-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 51] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Neuroinflammation is a crucial factor in the development of secondary brain injury after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Irisin is a newly identified myokine that confers strong neuroprotective effects in experimental ischemic stroke. However, whether this myokine can exert neuroprotection effects after ICH remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate the impact of irisin treatment on neuroinflammation and neuronal apoptosis and the underlying mechanism involving integrin αVβ5/AMPK pathway after ICH.
Methods Two hundred and eighty-five adult (8-week-old) male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to sham and ICH surgery groups. ICH was induced via intrastriatal injection of autologous blood. Irisin was administered intranasally at 30 min after ICH. To elucidate the underlying mechanism, cilengitide (a selective integrin αVβ5 inhibitor) and dorsomorphin (a selective phosphorylated AMPK inhibitor) were administered before irisin treatment. The short- and long-term neurobehavior tests, brain edema, quantitative-PCR, western blotting, Fluoro-Jade C, TUNEL, and immunofluorescence staining were performed to assess the neurofunctional outcome at the level of molecular, cell, histology, and function.
Results Endogenous irisin and its receptor, integrin αVβ5, were increased, peaked at 24 h after ICH. irisin post-treatment improved both short- and long-term neurological functions, reduced brain edema after ICH. Interestingly, integrin αVβ5 was mainly located in the microglia after ICH, and irisin post-treatment inhibited microglia/macrophage pro-inflammatory polarization and promoted anti-inflammatory polarization. Moreover, irisin treatment inhibited neutrophil infiltration and suppressed neuronal apoptotic cell death in perihematomal areas after ICH. Mechanistically, irisin post-treatment significantly increased the expression of integrin αVβ5, p-AMPK and Bcl-2, and decreased the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, MPO, and Bax following ICH. The neuroprotective effects of irisin were abolished by both integrin αVβ5 inhibitor cilengitide and AMPK inhibitor dorsomorphin. Conclusions This study demonstrated that irisin post-treatment ameliorated neurological deficits, reduced brain edema, and ameliorated neuroinflammation and neuronal apoptosis, at least in part, through the integrin αVβ5/AMPK signaling pathway after ICH. Thus, irisin post-treatment may provide a promising therapeutic approach for the early management of ICH.

Abstract
To date, there is no effective treatment strategy for Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Curcumin, a major active ingredient of curcuma longa L, possesses a potential anti-inflammatory activity in many types of disease. In the current study, the mechanism underlying curcumin attenuates ICH-induced neuronal apoptosis and neuroinflammation was explored. Herein, we studied curcumin decreased brain edema and improved neurological function by using brain edema measurement, assessment of neurological-deficient score, immunofluorescence, and western blotting analyses after ICH. The results showed that curcumin improved ICH-induced neuronal apoptosis and neuroinflammation. Functionally, the polarization of microglia was assessed by immunofluorescence and western blotting analyses after ICH in the absence or presence of curcumin. The results suggested that the M1-type microglia were activated after ICH, while the effect was blocked by curcumin treatment, suggesting that curcumin alleviates the neuroinflammation and apoptosis of neurons by suppressing the M1-type polarization of microglia. Mechanically, M1 polarization of microglia was regulated by JAK1/STAT1 and the activation of JAK1/STAT1 was blocked by curcumin. Meanwhile, the protective function of curcumin can be blocked by RO8191, an activator of JAK1. Taken together our study suggests that curcumin improved the ICH-induced brain injury through alleviating M1 polarization of microglia/macrophage and neuroinflammation via suppressing JAK1/STAT1 pathway.

Abstract
Background Oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis have important roles in the pathogenesis after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Previous studies have reported that low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6) exerts neuroprotection in several neurological diseases. Herein, we investigate the role of LRP6 receptor activation with HLY78 to attenuate oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis after ICH, as well as the underlying mechanism. Methods A total of 199 CD1 mice were used. ICH was induced via injection of autologous blood into the right basal ganglia. HLY78 was administered via intranasal injection at 1 h after ICH. To explore the underlying mechanism, LRP6 siRNA and selisistat, a Sirt1 selective antagonist, were injected intracerebroventricularly at 48 h before ICH induction. Neurobehavioral tests, Western blot, and immunofluorescence staining were performed. Results The expression of endogenous p-LRP6 was gradually increased and expressed on neurons after ICH. HLY78 significantly improved the short- and long-term neurobehavioral deficits after ICH, which was accompanied with decreased oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis, as well as increased expression of p-GSK3β, Sirt1, and PGC-1α, as well as downregulation of Romo-1 and C-Caspase-3. LRP6 knockdown or Sirt1 inhibition abolished these effects of HLY78 after ICH. Conclusion Our results suggest that administration of HLY78 attenuated oxidative stress, neuronal apoptosis, and neurobehavioral impairments through the LRP6/GSK3β/Sirt1/PGC-1α signaling pathway after ICH.

Abstract
The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) plays an important role in the progression of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). An increasing number of studies have reported that a high NLR is correlated with poor clinical outcomes among patients with ICH. Here, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the prognostic value of NLR in the setting of ICH. We performed a comprehensive search of electronic literature databases to identify all relevant studies evaluating the prognostic role of NLR in patients with ICH. Two researchers independently screened the studies and extracted relevant data. We extracted, pooled, and weighted odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) values using a generic inverse-variance method, and then evaluated the heterogeneity among studies using Q test and I2 statistic. Finally, we selected a total of 26 studies including 7,317 patients for the current study. Overall, our results indicated that a high NLR was significantly associated with a poor outcome (OR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.19–1.46; P < 0.00001), mortality (OR, 1.05; 95% CI, 1.01–1.09; P = 0.02), and neurological deterioration (OR, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.08–2.52; P = 0.02). We did not observe a significant association between NLR and hematoma expansion (OR, 1.04; 95% CI, 0.99–1.08; P = 0.09). Our study indicated that a high NLR is significantly associated with poor clinical outcomes in patients with ICH. As NLR is a simple and easily available biomarker, future studies should focus on exploring its application in the prognostic evaluation of patients with ICH.

Abstract
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (OLR1) is upregulated in neurons and participates in hypertension-induced neuronal apoptosis. OLR1 deletion exerts protective effects on cerebral damage induced by hypertensive-induced stroke. Therefore, OLR1 is likely involved in the progress of intracerebral hemorrhage. In this study, we examined the potential role of OLR1 in intracerebral hemorrhage using a rat model. OLR1 small interfering RNA (10 μL; 50 pmol/μL) was injected into the right basal ganglia to knock down OLR1. Twenty-four hours later, 0.5 U collagenase type VII was injected to induce intracerebral hemorrhage. We found that knockdown of OLR1 attenuated neurological behavior impairment in rats with intracerebral hemorrhage and reduced hematoma, neuron loss, inflammatory reaction, and oxidative stress in rat brain tissue. We also found that silencing of OLR1 suppressed ferroptosis induced by intracerebral hemorrhage and the p38 signaling pathway. Therefore, silencing OLR1 exhibits protective effects against secondary injury of intracerebral hemorrhage. These findings suggest that OLR1 may be a novel potential therapeutic target for intracerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a fatal cerebrovascular disease. Neuroinflammation plays an important pathological role in brain injury after ICH. NLRP3 contributes to the pathogenesis of ICH, but the underlying mechanisms regulating of NLRP3 remain elusive. V-set and immunoglobulin domain containing 4 (VSIG4), specifically expressed in resting tissue-resident macrophages, can deliver anti-inflammatory signals into various inflammatory diseases. However, the interaction between VSIG4 and NLRP3, as well as the underlying mechanisms after ICH have not been reported. C57BL/6 mice were subjected to the autologous blood injection ICH model. VSIG4 and NLRP3 levels of macrophages were detected following ICH. Ad-VSIG4 or controls were administered via intracerebroventricular (i.c.v) injection before ICH induction. STAT3 inhibitor (S31-201), JAK2 inhibitor (TG101348), or Ad-A20 RNAi was administered to investigate the role of JAK2-STAT3-A20 pathway in VSIG4-mediated neuroinflammation after ICH. Pro-inflammatory cytokine production, BBB disruption, brain water content, and neurological test were examined in ICH mice. VSIG4 levels were significantly decreased, and NLRP3 levels were significantly increased in the perihematomal brain tissues after ICH. Ad-VSIG4 attenuated NLRP3 levels and inhibited inflammation, as well as improved neurological function and reduced BBB disruption and brain water content. Furthermore, Ad-VSIG4 increased the protein levels of phosphorylated JAK2 and STAT3, and A20 levels at 24 h after ICH. STAT3 inhibitor, JAK2 inhibitor, and A20 RNAi abolished the beneficial effects of Ad-VSIG4 after ICH. In summary, these data suggested that VSIG4 attenuated NLRP3 and ameliorated neuroinflammation via JAK2-STAT3-A20 pathway after intracerebral hemorrhage in mice. VSIG4 might be an ideal therapeutic target for ICH patients.

Prognostic Significance of the Combined Score of Plasma Fibrinogen and Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio in Patients with Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage. DISEASE MARKERS 2022; 2021:7055101. [PMID: 35003392 PMCID: PMC8731292 DOI: 10.1155/2021/7055101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2021] [Accepted: 12/01/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
Background The combination of plasma fibrinogen and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (F-NLR) score is a novel inflammatory marker constituted by peripheral blood fibrinogen concentration and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio. In the current study, we aim to explore the relationship between admission F-NLR score and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and assess its prognostic predictive ability in ICH patients. Methods The original cohort was consecutively recruited from August 2014 to September 2017, and the validation cohort was consecutively recruited between October 2018 and March 2020. The primary outcomes were 3-month functional outcome and 1-month mortality. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS and R software. Results A total of 431 and 251 ICH patients were included in original cohort and validation cohort, respectively. In the original cohort, F-NLR score could independently predict the 3-month functional outcome (adjusted OR 2.013, 95% CI 1.316-3.078, p = 0.001) and 1-month mortality (adjusted OR 3.036, 95% CI 1.965-4.693, p < 0.001). Receiver operation characteristic (ROC) analyses and predictive model comparison indicated that F-NLR score had a stronger predictive ability in the 3-month outcome and 1-month mortality. Validation cohort verified the results. Conclusion F-NLR score was an independent indicator for both the 3-month functional outcome and 1-month mortality, and its prognostic predictive ability was superior to fibrinogen and NLR in both the original and the validation cohort.
