Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is recognized as an especially severe stroke variant, notorious for its high mortality and long-term disability rates, in addition to a range of both immediate and enduring neurologic impacts. Over half of the SAH survivors experience varying degrees of neurologic disorders, with many enduring chronic neuropsychiatric conditions. Due to the limitations of traditional imaging techniques in depicting subtle changes within brain tissues posthemorrhage, the accurate detection and diagnosis of white matter (WM) injuries are complicated. Against this backdrop, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has emerged as a promising biomarker for structural imaging, renowned for its enhanced sensitivity in identifying axonal damage. This capability positions DTI as an invaluable tool for forming precise and expedient prognoses for SAH survivors. This study synthesizes an assessment of DTI for the diagnosis and prognosis of neurologic dysfunctions in patients with SAH, emphasizing the notable changes observed in DTI metrics and their association with potential pathophysiological processes. Despite challenges associated with scanning technology differences and data processing, DTI demonstrates significant clinical potential for early diagnosis of cognitive impairments following SAH and monitoring therapeutic effects. Future research requires the development of highly standardized imaging paradigms to enhance diagnostic accuracy and devise targeted therapeutic strategies for SAH patients. In sum, DTI technology not only augments our understanding of the impact of SAH but also may offer new avenues for improving patient prognoses.

Abstract
This review article discusses the role of MR imaging-based biomarkers in understanding and managing hemorrhagic strokes, focusing on intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. ICH is a severe type of stroke with high mortality and morbidity rates, primarily caused by the rupture of small blood vessels in the brain, resulting in hematoma formation. MR imaging-based biomarkers, including brain iron quantification, ultra-early erythrolysis detection, and diffusion tensor imaging, offer valuable insights for hemorrhagic stroke management. These biomarkers could improve early diagnosis, risk stratification, treatment monitoring, and patient outcomes in the future, revolutionizing our approach to hemorrhagic strokes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In male mice, a circadian rhythm in myogenic reactivity influences the extent of brain injury following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). We hypothesized that female mice have a different cerebrovascular phenotype and consequently, a distinct SAH-induced injury phenotype. METHODS SAH was modelled by pre-chiasmatic blood injection. Olfactory cerebral resistance arteries were functionally assessed by pressure myography; these functional assessments were related to brain histology and neurobehavioral assessments. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) expression was assessed by PCR and Western blot. We compared non-ovariectomized and ovariectomized mice. FINDINGS Cerebrovascular myogenic reactivity is not rhythmic in females and no diurnal differences in SAH-induced injury are observed; ovariectomy does not unmask a rhythmic phenotype for any endpoint. CFTR expression is rhythmic, with similar expression levels compared to male mice. CFTR inhibition studies, however, indicate that CFTR activity is lower in female arteries. Pharmacologically increasing CFTR expression in vivo (3 mg/kg lumacaftor for 2 days) reduces myogenic tone at Zeitgeber time 11, but not Zeitgeber time 23. Myogenic tone is not markedly augmented following SAH in female mice and lumacaftor loses its ability to reduce myogenic tone; nevertheless, lumacaftor confers at least some injury benefit in females with SAH. INTERPRETATION Female mice possess a distinct cerebrovascular phenotype compared to males, putatively due to functional differences in CFTR regulation. This sex difference eliminates the CFTR-dependent cerebrovascular effects of SAH and may alter the therapeutic efficacy of lumacaftor compared to males.

Abstract
Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide; however, the treatment choices available to neurologists are limited in clinical practice. Lipocalin 2 (LCN2) is a secreted protein, belonging to the lipocalin superfamily, with multiple biological functions in mediating innate immune response, inflammatory response, iron-homeostasis, cell migration and differentiation, energy metabolism, and other processes in the body. LCN2 is expressed at low levels in the brain under normal physiological conditions, but its expression is significantly up-regulated in multiple acute stimulations and chronic pathologies. An up-regulation of LCN2 has been found in the blood/cerebrospinal fluid of patients with ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke, and could serve as a potential biomarker for the prediction of the severity of acute stroke. LCN2 activates reactive astrocytes and microglia, promotes neutrophil infiltration, amplifies post-stroke inflammation, promotes blood-brain barrier disruption, white matter injury, and neuronal death. Moreover, LCN2 is involved in brain injury induced by thrombin and erythrocyte lysates, as well as microvascular thrombosis after hemorrhage. In this paper, we review the role of LCN2 in the pathological processes of ischemic stroke; intracerebral hemorrhage; subarachnoid hemorrhage; and stroke-related brain diseases, such as vascular dementia and post-stroke depression, and their underlying mechanisms. We hope that this review will help elucidate the value of LCN2 as a therapeutic target in stroke.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) refers to vascular brain injury mainly from a ruptured aneurysm, which has a high lifetime risk and imposes a substantial burden on patients, families, and society. Previous studies on SAH mainly focused on neurons in gray matter (GM). However, according to literature reports in recent years, in-depth research on the mechanism of white matter (WM) is of great significance to injury and recovery after SAH. In terms of functional recovery after SAH, all kinds of cells in the central nervous system (CNS) should be protected. In other words, it is necessary to protect not only GM but also WM, not only neurons but also glial cells and axons, and not only for the lesion itself but also for the prevention and treatment of remote damage. Clarifying the mechanism of white matter injury (WMI) and repair after SAH is of great importance. Therefore, this present review systematically summarizes the current research on WMI after SAH, which might provide therapeutic targets for treatment after SAH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES DCI and hydrocephalus are the most common complications that predict poor outcomes after aSAH. The relationship between sex, DCI and hydrocephalus are not well established; thus, we aimed to examine sex differences in DCI and hydrocephalus following aSAH in a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS A systematic search was conducted using the PubMed, Scopus and Medline databases from inception to August 2022 to identify cohort, case control, case series and clinical studies reporting sex and DCI, acute and chronic shunt-dependent hydrocephalus (SDHC). Random-effects meta-analysis was used to pool estimates for available studies. RESULTS There were 56 studies with crude estimates for DCI and meta-analysis showed that women had a greater risk for DCI than men (OR 1.24, 95% CI 1.11-1.39). The meta-analysis for adjusted estimates for 9 studies also showed an association between sex and DCI (OR 1.61, 95% CI 1.27-2.05). For acute hydrocephalus, only 9 studies were included, and meta-analysis of unadjusted estimates showed no association with sex (OR 0.95, 95%CI 0.78-1.16). For SDHC, a meta-analysis of crude estimates from 53 studies showed that women had a somewhat greater risk of developing chronic hydrocephalus compared to men (OR 1.14, 95% CI 0.99-1.31). In meta-analysis for adjusted estimates from 5 studies, no association of sex with SDHC was observed (OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.57-1.33). CONCLUSIONS Female sex is associated with the development of DCI; however, an association between sex and hydrocephalus was not detected. Strategies to target females to reduce the development of DCI may decrease overall morbidity and mortality after aSAH.

Abstract
Hydrocephalus is a complicated disorder that affects both adult and pediatric populations. The mechanism of hydrocephalus development, especially when there is no mass lesion present causing an obstructive, is poorly understood. Prior studies have demonstrated that spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) develop hydrocephalus by week 7, which was attenuated with minocycline. The aim of this study was to determine sex differences in hydrocephalus development and to examine the effect of minocycline administration after hydrocephalus onset. Male and female Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKYs) and SHRs underwent magnetic resonance imaging at weeks 7 and 9 to determine ventricular volume. Choroid plexus epiplexus cell activation, cognitive deficits, white matter atrophy, and hippocampal neuronal loss were examined at week 9. In the second phase of the experiment, male SHRs (7 weeks old) were treated with either saline or minocycline (20 mg/kg) for 14 days, and similar radiologic, histologic, and behavior tests were performed. Hydrocephalus was present at week 7 and increased at week 9 in both male and female SHRs, which was associated with greater epiplexus cell activation than WKYs. Male SHRs had greater ventricular volume and epiplexus cell activation compared to female SHRs. Minocycline administration improved cognitive function, white matter atrophy, and hippocampal neuronal cell loss. In conclusion, while both male and female SHRs developed hydrocephalus and epiplexus cell activation by week 9, it was more severe in males. Delayed minocycline treatment alleviated hydrocephalus, epiplexus macrophage activation, brain pathology, and cognitive impairment in male SHRs.

Abstract
AIMS White matter (WM) injury is a critical factor associated with worse outcomes following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, the detailed pathological changes are not completely understood. This study investigates temporal changes in the corpus callosum (CC), including WM edema and oligodendrocyte death after SAH, and the role of lipocalin-2 (LCN2) in those changes. METHODS Subarachnoid hemorrhage was induced in adult wild-type or LCN2 knockout mice via endovascular perforation. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed 4 hours, 1 day, and 8 days after SAH, and T2 hyperintensity changes within the CC were quantified to represent WM edema. Immunofluorescence staining was performed to evaluate oligodendrocyte death and proliferation. RESULTS Subarachnoid hemorrhage induced significant CC T2 hyperintensity at 4 hours and 1 day that diminished significantly by 8 days post-procedure. Comparing changes between the 4 hours and 1 day, each individual mouse had an increase in CC T2 hyperintensity volume. Oligodendrocyte death was observed at 4 hours, 1 day, and 8 days after SAH induction, and there was progressive loss of mature oligodendrocytes, while immature oligodendrocytes/oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) proliferated back to baseline by Day 8 after SAH. Moreover, LCN2 knockout attenuated WM edema and oligodendrocyte death at 24 hours after SAH. CONCLUSIONS Subarachnoid hemorrhage leads to T2 hyperintensity change within the CC, which indicates WM edema. Oligodendrocyte death was observed in the CC within 1 day of SAH, with a partial recovery by Day 8. SAH-induced WM injury was alleviated in an LCN2 knockout mouse model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can lead to acute hydrocephalus (AH). AH pathophysiology is classically attributed to an obstruction of the arachnoid granulations by blood. Recent findings in rodents suggest that after intraventricular hemorrhage, AH is related to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) hypersecretion by the choroid plexus (CP), as it can be reduced by intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of bumetanide. OBJECTIVE Here, we investigated if and how CSF hypersecretion and/or CSF outflow disorders contribute to post-SAH hydrocephalus. METHODS Ninety-four Wistar rats were used. SAH was induced by the endovascular perforation technique. The presence of AH was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and rats with AH were randomly assigned to 4 groups: control group, superior sagittal sinus (SSS) thrombosis to block CSF reabsorption, ICV injection of saline, and ICV injection of bumetanide to decrease CSF secretion. Clinical outcome was evaluated with a neuroscore. A second MRI was performed 24 h later to evaluate the ventricular volume. RESULTS Fifty percent of rats that survived SAH induction had AH. Their ventricular volume correlated well to the functional outcome after 24 h (r = 0.803). In rats with AH, 24 h later, ventricular volume remained equally increased in the absence of any further procedure. Similarly, ICV injection of saline or SSS thrombosis had no impact on the ventricular volume. However, ICV injection of bumetanide reduced AH by 35.9% (p = 0.002). CONCLUSION In rodents, post-SAH hydrocephalus is may be due to hypersecretion of CSF by the CP, as it is limited by ICV injection of bumetanide. However, we cannot exclude other mechanisms involved in post-SAH acute hydrocephalus.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is associated with a high incidence of morbidity and mortality, particularly within the first 72 h after aneurysm rupture. We recently found ultra-early cerebral thrombosis, detectable on T2* magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), in a mouse SAH model at 4 h after onset. The current study examined whether such changes also occur in rat at 24 h after SAH, the vessels involved, whether the degree of thrombosis varied with SAH severity and brain injury, and if it differed between male and female rats. Adult Sprague Dawley rats were subjected to an endovascular perforation SAH model or sham surgery and underwent T2 and T2* MRI 24 h later. Following SAH, increased numbers of T2* hypointense vessels were detected on MRI. The number of such vessels correlated with SAH severity, as assessed by MRI-based grading of bleeding. Histologically, thrombotic vessels were found on hematoxylin and eosin staining, had a single layer of smooth muscle cells on alpha-smooth muscle actin immunostaining, and had laminin 2α/fibrinogen double labeling, suggesting venule thrombosis underlies the T2*-positive vessels on MRI. Capillary thrombosis was also detected which may follow the venous thrombosis. In both male and female rats, the number of T2*-positive thrombotic vessels correlated with T2 lesion volume and neurological function, and the number of such vessels was significantly greater in female rats. In summary, this study identified cerebral venous thrombosis 24 h following SAH in rats that could be detected with T2* MRI imaging and may contribute to SAH-induced brain injury.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is one of the special stroke subtypes with high mortality and mobility. Although the mortality of SAH has decreased by 50% over the past two decades due to advances in neurosurgery and management of neurocritical care, more than 70% of survivors suffer from varying degrees of neurological deficits and cognitive impairments, leaving a heavy burden on individuals, families, and the society. Recent studies have shown that white matter is vulnerable to SAH, and white matter injuries may be one of the causes of long-term neurological deficits caused by SAH. Attention has recently focused on the pivotal role of white matter injury in the pathophysiological processes after SAH, mainly related to mechanical damage caused by increased intracerebral pressure and the metabolic damage induced by blood degradation and hypoxia. In the present review, we sought to summarize the pathophysiology processes and mechanisms of white matter injury after SAH, with a view to providing new strategies for the prevention and treatment of long-term cognitive dysfunction after SAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a life-threatening disease worldwide, and effective pharmaceutical treatment is still lacking. Celastrol is a plant-derived triterpene which showed neuroprotective potential in several types of brain insults. This study aimed to investigate the effects of celastrol on early brain injury (EBI) after SAH. METHODS A total of sixty-one male Sprague-Dawley rats were used in this study. Rat SAH endovascular perforation model was established to mimic the pathological changes of EBI after SAH. Multiple methods such as 3.0T MRI scanning, immunohistochemistry, western blotting and propidium iodide (PI) labeling were used to explore the therapeutic effects of celastrol on SAH. RESULTS Celastrol treatment attenuated SAH-caused brain swelling, reduced T2 lesion volume and ventricular volume in MRI scanning, and improved overall neurological score. Albumin leakage and the degradation of tight junction proteins were also ameliorated after celastrol administration. Celastrol protected blood-brain bairrer integrity through inhibiting MMP-9 expression and anti-neuroinflammatory effects. Additionally, necroptosis-related proteins RIP3 and MLKL were down-regulated and PI-positive cells in the basal cortex were less in the celastrol-treated SAH group than that in untreated SAH group. CONCLUSIONS Celastrol exhibits neuroprotective effects on EBI after SAH and deserves to be further investigated as an add-on pharmaceutical therapy.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide (CO) has been the leading cause of poisoning mortality in many countries and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is a widely accepted treatment for CO poisoning. However, some patients with CO poisoning will still develop neurocognitive sequelae regardless of HBO therapy, which can persist since CO poisoning or be present days to weeks after a recovery from CO poisoning. HBO has been used in the prevention and treatment of neurocognitive sequelae after CO poisoning, and some mechanisms are also proposed for the potential neuroprotective effects of HBO on the neurocognitive impairment after CO poisoning, but there is still controversy on the effectiveness of HBO on neurocognitive sequelae after CO poisoning. In this paper, we briefly introduce the neurocognitive sequelae after CO poisoning, summarize the potential predictive factors of neurocognitive sequelae, and discuss the use of HBO in the treatment and prevention of neurocognitive sequelae after CO poisoning.

Abstract
The past decade has brought tremendous progress in diagnostic and therapeutic options for cerebrovascular diseases as exemplified by the advent of thrombectomy in ischemic stroke, benefitting a steeply increasing number of stroke patients and potentially paving the way for a renaissance of neuroprotectants. Progress in basic science has been equally impressive. Based on a deeper understanding of pathomechanisms underlying cerebrovascular diseases, new therapeutic targets have been identified and novel treatment strategies such as pre- and post-conditioning methods were developed. Moreover, translationally relevant aspects are increasingly recognized in basic science studies, which is believed to increase their predictive value and the relevance of obtained findings for clinical application.This review reports key results from some of the most remarkable and encouraging achievements in neurovascular research that have been reported at the 10th International Symposium on Neuroprotection and Neurorepair. Basic science topics discussed herein focus on aspects such as neuroinflammation, extracellular vesicles, and the role of sex and age on stroke recovery. Translational reports highlighted endovascular techniques and targeted delivery methods, neurorehabilitation, advanced functional testing approaches for experimental studies, pre-and post-conditioning approaches as well as novel imaging and treatment strategies. Beyond ischemic stroke, particular emphasis was given on activities in the fields of traumatic brain injury and cerebral hemorrhage in which promising preclinical and clinical results have been reported. Although the number of neutral outcomes in clinical trials is still remarkably high when targeting cerebrovascular diseases, we begin to evidence stepwise but continuous progress towards novel treatment options. Advances in preclinical and translational research as reported herein are believed to have formed a solid foundation for this progress.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) affects six to nine people per 100,000 per year, has a 35% mortality, and leaves many with lasting disabilities, often related to cognitive dysfunction. Clinical decision rules and more sensitive computed tomography (CT) have made the diagnosis of SAH easier, but physicians must maintain a high index of suspicion. The management of these patients is based on a limited number of randomized clinical trials (RCTs). Early repair of the ruptured aneurysm by endovascular coiling or neurosurgical clipping is essential, and coiling is superior to clipping in cases amenable to both treatments. Aneurysm repair prevents rebleeding, leaving the most important prognostic factors for outcome early brain injury from the hemorrhage, which is reflected in the neurologic condition of the patient, and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Observational studies suggest outcomes are better when patients are managed in specialized neurologic intensive care units with inter- or multidisciplinary clinical groups. Medical management aims to minimize early brain injury, cerebral edema, hydrocephalus, increased intracranial pressure (ICP), and medical complications. Management then focuses on preventing, detecting, and treating DCI. Nimodipine is the only pharmacologic treatment that is approved for SAH in most countries, as no other intervention has demonstrated efficacy. In fact, much of SAH management is derived from studies in other patient populations. Therefore, further study of complications, including DCI and other medical complications, is needed to optimize outcomes for this fragile patient population.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of PPAR‐β/δ receptor agonist GW0742 on neuroinflammation in a rat model of hypoxia‐ischaemia (HI) and in PC12 cells in OGD model. HI was induced by ligating the common carotid artery and inducing hypoxia for 150 minutes. Immunofluorescence was used for quantification of microglia activation and for determining cellular localization of PPAR‐β/δ. Expression of proteins was measured by Western blot. Activation of miR‐17‐5p by GW0742 was assessed in PC12 cells by Dual‐Luciferase Reporter Gene Assay. The endogenous expression of TXNIP, NLRP3, cleaved caspase‐1 and IL‐1β was increased after HI. GW0742 treatment significantly reduced the number of activated pro‐inflammatory microglia in ipsilateral hemisphere after HI. Mechanistically, GW0742 significantly decreased the expression of TXNIP, NLRP3, IL‐6 and TNF‐α. Either PPAR‐β/δ antagonist GSK3787, miR‐17‐5p inhibitor, or TXNIP CRISPR activation abolished the anti‐inflammatory effects of GW0742. Activation of PPAR‐β/δ by GW0742 activated miR‐17‐5p expression in PC12 cells and increased cell viability after OGD, which was accompanied by decreased expression of TXNIP and reduced secretion of IL‐1β and TNF‐α. In conclusion, GW0742 may be a promising neurotherapeutic for the management of HI patients.

Abstract
Thrombin is increased in the brain after hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke primarily due to the prothrombin entry from blood either with a hemorrhage or following blood-brain barrier disruption. Increasing evidence indicates that thrombin and its receptors (protease-activated receptors (PARs)) play a major role in brain pathology following ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke (including intracerebral, intraventricular, and subarachnoid hemorrhage). Thrombin and PARs affect brain injury via multiple mechanisms that can be detrimental or protective. The cleavage of prothrombin into thrombin is the key step of hemostasis and thrombosis which takes place in every stroke and subsequent brain injury. The extravascular effects and direct cellular interactions of thrombin are mediated by PARs (PAR-1, PAR-3, and PAR-4) and their downstream signaling in multiple brain cell types. Such effects include inducing blood-brain-barrier disruption, brain edema, neuroinflammation, and neuronal death, although low thrombin concentrations can promote cell survival. Also, thrombin directly links the coagulation system to the immune system by activating interleukin-1α. Such effects of thrombin can result in both short-term brain injury and long-term functional deficits, making extravascular thrombin an understudied therapeutic target for stroke. This review examines the role of thrombin and PARs in brain injury following hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke and the potential treatment strategies which are complicated by their role in both hemostasis and brain.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is devastating disease with high mortality, high disability rate, and poor clinical prognosis. It has drawn great attentions in both basic and clinical medicine. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the therapeutic drugs and effective targets for early prediction of SAH. Firstly, we demonstrate that LCN2 can effectively intervene or treat SAH from the perspective of cell signaling pathway. Next, three potential genes that we explored have been validated by manually reviewed experimental evidences. Finally, we turn out that the SAH early ensemble learning predictive model performs better than the classical LR, SVM, and Naïve-Bayes models.

Abstract
Objective The amount of extravasated blood is an established surrogate marker for subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) severity, which varies in different experimental SAH (eSAH) models. A comprehensive eSAH grading system would allow a more reliable correlation of outcome parameters with SAH severity. The aim of this study was to define a severity score for eSAH related to the Fisher-Score in humans. Material and methods SAH was induced in 135 male rats using the modified double hemorrhage model. A sham group included 8 rats, in which saline solution instead of blood was injected. Histological analysis with HE(hematoxylin-eosin)-staining for the visualization of blood was performed in all rats on day 5. The amount and distribution of blood within the subarachnoid space and ventricles (IVH) was analyzed. Results The mortality rate was 49.6% (71/143). In all except five SAH rats, blood was visible within the subarachnoid space. As expected, no blood was detected in the sham group. The following eSAH severity score was established (ESAS-score): grade I: no SAH visible; grade II: local or diffuse thin SAH, no IVH; grade III: diffuse / thick layers of blood, no IVH; grade IV: additional IVH. Grade I was seen in five rats (7.9%), grade II in 28.6% (18/63), grade III in 41.3% (26/63) and grade IV in 22.2% (14/63) of the rats with eSAH. Conclusion The double hemorrhage model allows the induction of a high grade SAH in more than 60% of the rats, making it suitable for the evaluation of outcome parameters in severe SAH.

The Neuroprotective Effects of Necrostatin-1 on Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Rats Are Possibly Mediated by Preventing Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption and RIP3-Mediated Necroptosis. Cell Transplant 2019; 28:1358-1372. [PMID: 31370690 PMCID: PMC6802141 DOI: 10.1177/0963689719867285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2019] [Revised: 06/29/2019] [Accepted: 07/11/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite the substantial efforts to elucidate the role of early brain injury in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), an effective pharmaceutical therapy for patients with SAH continues to be unavailable. This study aims to reveal the role of necroptosis after SAH, and explore whether the disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and RIP3-mediated necroptosis following SAH in a rat SAH model are altered by necrostatin-1 via its selective inhibition of receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIP1). Sixty-five rats were used in the experiments. The SAH model was established using endovascular perforation. Necrostatin-1 was intracerebroventricularly injected 1 h before SAH induction. The neuroprotective effects of necrostatin-1 were evaluated with multiple methods such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning, immunohistochemistry, propidium iodide (PI) labeling, and western blotting. Pretreatment with necrostatin-1 attenuated brain swelling and reduced the lesion volume on T2 sequence and ventricular volume on MRI 72 h after SAH induction. Albumin leakage and the degradation of tight junction proteins were also ameliorated by necrostatin-1 administration. In addition, necrostatin-1 decreased the number of PI-positive cells in the basal cortex, reduced the levels of the RIP3 and MLKL proteins, and inhibited the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. Based on the findings from the present study, the selective RIP1 inhibitor necrostatin-1 functioned as a neuroprotective agent after SAH by attenuating brain swelling and BBB disruption. Moreover, the necrostatin-1 pretreatment prevented SAH-induced necroptosis by suppressing the activity of the RIP3/MLKL signaling pathway. These results will provide insights into new drugs and pharmacological targets to manage SAH, which are worth further study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aims of this study were to assess the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to track the in vivo distribution of autologous, injected blood in a subarachnoid hemorrhage model (SAH), and to evaluate whether this technique results in observable morphological detriment. NEW METHOD We used an SAH model of stereotactic injection of autologous blood into the prechiasmatic cistern in Sprague Dawley rats. To visualize its in vivo distribution, a gadolinium-containing contrast agent was added to the autologous blood prior to injection. MRI was performed on a 9.4 T Bruker Biospec scanner preoperatively, as well as at variable time points between 30 min to 23 days after SAH. T1-weighted and diffusion-weighted images were acquired. The morphological examination was completed by a histopathological work-up. RESULTS Upon injection of contrast agent-enriched autologous blood, enhancement was observed in the entire subarachnoid space within 30 min of injection. Total clearance was noted at the first postoperative day. SAH induction did not result in changes in clinical scores or on histopathological or radiological images. COMPARISON WITH EXISTING METHODS We modified an established method to allow in vivo MRI monitoring of subarachnoid blood distribution in an SAH model. CONCLUSION This technique could be used to evaluate the distribution of blood components during the development of novel SAH models. Since no additional morphological detriment was observed, this technique could be used as a validation tool to verify correct application and induction in preclinical SAH models.

Free Radic Biol Med 2019; 141:322-337. [PMID: 31279091 PMCID: PMC6718314 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2019.07.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 84] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2019] [Revised: 07/01/2019] [Accepted: 07/02/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Neuronal apoptosis induced by oxidative stress is one of the major pathological processes involved in neurological impairment after hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Ghrelin, the unique endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor-1α (GHSR-1α), could take an anti-apoptotic role in the brain. However, whether ghrelin can attenuate neuronal apoptosis by attenuating oxidative stress after hypoxia-ischemia (HI) insult remains unknown. To investigate the beneficial effects of ghrelin on oxidative stress injury and neuronal apoptosis induced by HI, ten-day old unsexed rat pups were subjected to HI injury and exogenous recombinant human ghrelin(rh-Ghrelin) was administered intranasally at 1 h and 24 h after HI induction. [D-Lys3]-GHRP-6, a selective inhibitor of GHSR-1α and Ex527, a selective inhibitor of GHSR-1α were administered intranasally at 1 h before HI induction respectively. Small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) for GHSR-1α were administered by intracerebroventricular (i.c.v) injection at 24 h before HI induction. Neurological tests, immunofluorescence, MitoSox staining, Fluoro-Jade C staining, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining, and western blot experiments were performed. Our results indicated that ghrelin significantly improved neurobehavioral outcomes and reduced oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis. Moreover, ghrelin treatment significantly promoted phosphorylation of AMPK, upregulated the expression of Sirt1, PGC-1α, UCP2 and the ratio of Bcl2/Bax, while it downregulated cleaved caspase-3 levels. The protective effects of ghrelin were reversed by [D-Lys3]-GHRP-6, GHSR-1α siRNA or Ex527. In conclusion, our data demonstrated that ghrelin reduced oxidative stress injury and neuronal apoptosis which was in part via the GHSR-1α/AMPK/Sirt1/PGC-1α/UCP2 signalling pathway after HI. Ghrelin may be a novel therapeutic target for treatment after neonatasl HI injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress, inflammation, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress play a major role in the pathogenesis of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) injury. ER stress results in the accumulation of unfolded proteins that trigger the NADPH-P450 reductase (NPR) and the microsomal monooxygenase system which is composed of cytochrome P450 members (CYP) generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as the release of inflammatory cytokines. We explored the role of Bax Inhibitor-1 (BI-1) protein, encoded by the Transmembrane Bax inhibitor Motif Containing 6 (TMBIM6) gene, in protection from ER stress after HI brain injury. BI-1 may attenuate ER stress-induced ROS production and release of inflammatory mediators via (1) disruption of the NPR-CYP complex and (2) upregulation of Nrf-2, a redox-sensitive transcription factor, thus promoting an increase in anti-oxidant enzymes to inhibit ROS production. The main objective of our study is to evaluate BI-1's inhibitory effects on ROS production and inflammation by overexpressing BI-1 in 10-day-old rat pups. METHODS Ten-day-old (P10) unsexed Sprague-Dawley rat pups underwent right common carotid artery ligation, followed by 1.5 h of hypoxia. To overexpress BI-1, rat pups were intracerebroventricularly (icv) injected at 48 h pre-HI with the human adenoviral vector-TMBIM6 (Ad-TMBIM6). BI-1 and Nrf-2 silencing were achieved by icv injection at 48 h pre-HI using siRNA to elucidate the potential mechanism. Percent infarcted area, immunofluorescent staining, DHE staining, western blot, and long-term neurobehavior assessments were performed. RESULTS Overexpression of BI-1 significantly reduced the percent infarcted area and improved long-term neurobehavioral outcomes. BI-1's mediated protection was observed to be via inhibition of P4502E1, a major contributor to ROS generation and upregulation of pNrf-2 and HO-1, which correlated with a decrease in ROS and inflammatory markers. This effect was reversed when BI-1 or Nrf-2 were inhibited. CONCLUSIONS Overexpression of BI-1 increased the production of antioxidant enzymes and attenuated inflammation by destabilizing the complex responsible for ROS production. BI-1's multimodal role in inhibiting P4502E1, together with upregulating Nrf-2, makes it a promising therapeutic target.

Abstract
Aim To determine the effect of osteopontin (OPN) on autophagy and autophagy‐apoptosis interactions after SAH. Methods The endovascular perforation model of SAH or sham surgery was performed in a total of 86 Sprague‐Dawley male rats. The temporal expressions of endogenous OPN and autophagy‐related proteins (Beclin 1, ATG5, LC3 II to I ratio) were measured in sham and SAH rats at different time points (3, 6, 12, 24, and 72 hours). Rats were randomly divided into three groups: Sham, SAH + Vehicle (PBS, phosphate‐buffered saline), and SAH + rOPN (5 μg/rat recombinant OPN). Neurobehavioral tests were performed 24 hours after SAH, followed by the collection of brain samples for assessment of autophagy and apoptosis proteins. These tests assessed whether an autophagy‐apoptosis relationship existed on the histological level in the brain. Results Endogenous OPN and autophagy‐related proteins all increased after SAH. rOPN administration improved neurological dysfunction, increased the expression of autophagy‐related proteins (Beclin 1, ATG5, LC3 II to I ratio) and antiapoptotic protein Bcl‐2, while decreasing the expression of proapoptotic proteins (cleaved Caspase‐3 and Bax). rOPN also regulated autophagy‐apoptosis interactions 24 hours after SAH. Conclusion rOPN attenuates early brain injury and inhibits neuronal apoptosis by activating autophagy and regulating autophagy‐apoptosis interactions.

Abstract
Platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β (PDGFR-β) has been reported to promote phenotypic transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the PDGFR-β/IRF9/SIRT-1/NF-κB pathway in VSMC phenotypic transformation after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). SAH was induced using the endovascular perforation model in Sprague-Dawley rats. PDGFR-β small interfering RNA (siRNA) and IRF9 siRNA were injected intracerebroventricularly 48 h before SAH. SIRT1 activator (resveratrol) and inhibitor (EX527) were administered intraperitoneally 1 h after SAH induction. Twenty-four hours after SAH, the VSMC contractile phenotype marker α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) decreased, whereas the VSMC synthetic phenotype marker embryonic smooth muscle myosin heavy chain (Smemb) increased. Both PDGFR-β siRNA and IRF9 siRNA attenuated the induction of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and enhanced the expression of α-SMA. The SIRT1 activator (resveratrol) preserved VSMC contractile phenotype, significantly alleviated neurological dysfunction, and reduced brain edema. However, these beneficial effects of PDGFR-β siRNA, IRF9 siRNA and resveratrol were abolished by the SIRT1 inhibitor (EX527). This study shows that PDGFR-β/IRF9/SIRT-1/NF-κB signaling played a role in the VSMC phenotypic transformation after SAH. Inhibition of this signaling cascade preserved the contractile phenotype of VSMCs, thereby improving neurological outcomes following SAH.

Influence of sex and hormonal status on initial impact and neurocognitive outcome after subarachnoid haemorrhage in rats. Behav Brain Res 2019; 363:13-22.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to detect differences in functional outcome after experimental subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) in rodents with different hormonal status. For this purpose, the endovascular perforation model was applied to four groups of Sprague-Dawley-Rats: male intact, male neutered, female intact and female neutered animals. Initial impact was measured by ICP, CPP and cerebral blood flow in the first hour after SAH. From day 4-14, the modified hole board test was applied to assess functional and neuro-cognitive outcome. Histological outcome was examined in the motor cortex and hippocampus of each hemisphere. Mortality was highest in the female intact group albeit not statistically significant. Physiologic parameters did not differ significantly between groups either. In the modified hole board test, male intact animals showed a greater impairment of declarative memory than the female intact and neutered groups. However, male intact animals showed greater avoidance behaviour and male animals revealed higher anxiety levels independent of hormonal status. No differences in histological damage of hippocampus and motor cortex between groups could be shown. We therefore speculate that the marginal deficits in cognitive performance that are shown by the male intact group in the modified hole board test are mostly caused by higher anxiety levels and cannot be interpreted as pure cognitive impairment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Activated microglia-mediated neuroinflammation has been regarded as an underlying key player in the pathogenesis of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)-induced early brain injury (EBI). The therapeutic potential of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation has been demonstrated in several brain injury models and is thought to involve modulation of the inflammatory response. The present study investigated the salutary effects of BMSCs on EBI after SAH and the potential mechanism mediated by Notch1 signaling pathway inhibition. METHODS The Sprague-Dawley rats SAH model was induced by endovascular perforation method. BMSCs (3 × 106 cells) were transplanted intravenously into rats, and N-[N-(3,5-difluorophenacetyl-L-alanyl)]-S-phenylglycine t-butyl ester (DAPT), a Notch1 activation inhibitor, and Notch1 small interfering RNA (siRNA) were injected intracerebroventricularly. The effects of BMSCs on EBI were assayed by neurological score, brain water content (BWC), blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, magnetic resonance imaging, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and Fluoro-Jade C staining. Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry staining, Western blotting, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction were used to analyze various proteins and transcript levels. Pro-inflammatory cytokines were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS BMSCs treatment mitigated the neurobehavioral dysfunction, BWC and BBB disruption associated with EBI after SAH, reduced ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1 and cluster of differentiation 68 staining and interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha expression in the left hemisphere but concurrently increased IL-10 expression. DAPT or Notch1 siRNA administration reduced Notch1 signaling pathway activation following SAH, ameliorated neurobehavioral impairments, and BBB disruption; increased BWC and neuronal degeneration; and inhibited activation of microglia and production of pro-inflammatory factors. The augmentation of Notch1 signal pathway agents and phosphorylation of nuclear factor-κB after SAH were suppressed by BMSCs but the levels of Botch were upregulated in the ipsilateral hemisphere. Botch knockdown in BMSCs abrogated the protective effects of BMSCs treatment on EBI and the suppressive effects of BMSCs on Notch1 expression. CONCLUSIONS BMSCs treatment alleviated neurobehavioral impairments and the inflammatory response in EBI after SAH; these effects may be attributed to Botch upregulation in brain tissue, which subsequently inhibited the Notch1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Oxidative stress was shown to play a crucial role in the diverse pathogenesis of early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Microcirculatory dysfunction is thought to be an important and fundamental pathological change in EBI. However, other than blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, the influence of oxidative stress on microvessels remains to be elucidated. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of oxidative stress on microcirculatory integrity in EBI. SAH was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats using an endovascular perforation technique. A free radical scavenger, edaravone, was administered prophylactically by intraperitoneal injection. SAH grade, neurological score, brain water content, and BBB permeability were measured at 24 h after SAH induction. In addition, cortical samples taken at 24 h after SAH were analyzed to explore oxidative stress, microvascular mural cell apoptosis, microspasm, and microthrombosis. Edaravone treatment significantly ameliorated neurological deficits, brain edema, and BBB disruption. In addition, oxidative stress-induced modifications and subsequent apoptosis of microvascular endothelial cells and pericytes increased after SAH induction, while the administration of edaravone suppressed this. Consistent with apoptotic cell inhibition, microthromboses were also inhibited by edaravone administration. Oxidative stress plays a pivotal role in the induction of multiple pathological changes in microvessels in EBI. Antioxidants are potential candidates for the treatment of microvascular disturbances after SAH.

Abstract
Brain arteriovenous malformation (bAVM) is an important risk factor for intracranial hemorrhage. The pathogenesis of bAVM has not been fully understood. Animal models are important tools for dissecting bAVM pathogenesis and testing new therapies. We have developed several mouse bAVM models using genetically modified mice. However, due to the body size, mouse bAVM models have some limitations. Recent studies identified somatic mutations in sporadic human bAVM. To develop a feasible tool to create sporadic bAVM in rodent and animals larger than rodent, we made tests using the CRISPR/Cas9 technique to induce somatic gene mutations in mouse brain in situ. Two sequence-specific guide RNAs (sgRNAs) targeting mouse Alk1 exons 4 and 5 were cloned into pAd-Alk1e4sgRNA + e5sgRNA-Cas9 plasmid. These sgRNAs were capable to generate mutations in Alk1 gene in mouse cell lines. After packaged into adenovirus, Ad-Alk1e4sgRNA + e5sgRNA-Cas9 was co-injected with an adeno-associated viral vector expressing vascular endothelial growth factor (AAV-VEGF) into the brains of wild-type C57BL/6J mice. Eight weeks after viral injection, bAVMs were detected in 10 of 12 mice. Compared to the control (Ad-GFP/AAV-VEGF-injected) brain, 13% of Alk1 alleles were mutated and Alk1 expression was reduced by 26% in the Ad-Alk1e4sgRNA + e5sgRNA-Cas9/AAV-VEGF-injected brains. Around the Ad-Alk1e4sgRNA + e5sgRNA-Cas9/AAV-VEGF injected site, Alk1-null endothelial cells were detected. Our data demonstrated that CRISPR/Cas9 is a feasible tool for generating bAVM model in animals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autophagy is an extensive self-degradation process for the disposition of cytosolic aggregated or misfolded proteins and defective organelles which executes the functions of pro-survival and pro-death to maintain cellular homeostasis. The pathway plays essential roles in several neurological disorders. Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating subtype of hemorrhagic stroke with high risk of neurological deficit and high mortality. Early brain injury (EBI) plays a role in the poor clinical course and outcome after SAH. Recent studies have paid attention on the role of the autophagy pathway in the development of EBI after SAH. We aim to update the multifaceted roles of autophagy pathway in the pathogenesis of SAH, especially in the phase of EBI. METHODS We reviewed early researches related to autophagy and SAH. The following three aspects of contents will be mainly discussed: the process of the autophagy pathway, the role of the autophagy in SAH and the interaction between organelle dysfunction and autophagy pathway after SAH. RESULTS Accumulating evidence shows an increased autophagy reaction in response to early stages of SAH. However, others suggest inadequate or excessive autophagy activation can result in cell injury and death. In addition to autophagy, apoptosis and necrosis can occur in neurons simultaneously after SAH, leading to mixed features of cell death morphologies. And it is also known that there is extensive crosstalk between autophagy and apoptosis pathway. Subcellular organelles of neural cells generally participate in the formation and functional parts of autophagy process. CONCLUSION Autophagy plays an important role in the SAH-induced brain injury. A better understanding of the interrelationship among autophagy, apoptosis, and necrosis might provide us better therapeutic targets for the treatment of SAH.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a major cause of high morbidity, disability, and mortality in the field of neurovascular disease. Most previous SAH studies have focused on improving cerebral blood flow, reducing cerebral vasospasm, reducing neuronal calcium overload, and other treatments. While these studies showed exciting findings in basic science, therapeutic strategies based on the findings have not significantly improved neurological outcomes in patients with SAH. Currently, the only drug proven to effectively reduce the neurological defects of SAH patients is nimodipine. Current advances in imaging technologies in the field of stroke have confirmed that white matter injury (WMI) plays an important role in the prognosis of types of stroke, and suggests that WMI protection is essential for functional recovery and poststroke rehabilitation. However, WMI injury in relation to SAH has remained obscure until recently. An increasing number of studies suggest that the current limitations for SAH treatment are probably linked to overlooked WMI in previous studies that focused only on neurons and gray matter. In this review, we discuss the biology and functions of white matter in the normal brain, and discuss the potential pathophysiology and mechanisms of early brain injury after SAH. Our review demonstrates that WMI encompasses multiple substrates, and, therefore, more than one pharmacological approach is necessary to preserve WMI and prevent neurobehavioral impairment after SAH. Strategies targeting both neuronal injury and WMI may potentially provide a novel future for SAH knowledge and treatment.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) by a rupture of cerebral aneurysms remains the most devastating cerebrovascular disease. Early brain injury (EBI) is increasingly recognized to be the primary determinant for poor outcomes, and also considered to cause delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after SAH. Both clinical and experimental literatures emphasize the impact of global cerebral edema in EBI as negative prognostic and direct pathological factors. The nature of the global cerebral edema is a mixture of cytotoxic and vasogenic edema, both of which may be caused by post-SAH induction of tenascin-C (TNC) that is an inducible, non-structural, secreted and multifunctional matricellular protein. Experimental SAH induces TNC in brain parenchyma in rats and mice. TNC knockout suppressed EBI in terms of brain edema, blood-brain barrier disruption, neuronal apoptosis and neuroinflammation, associated with the inhibition of post-SAH activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases and nuclear factor-kappa B in mice. In a clinical setting, more severe SAH increases more TNC in cerebrospinal fluid and peripheral blood, which could be a surrogate marker of EBI and predict DCI development and outcomes. In addition, cilostazol, a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type III that is a clinically available anti-platelet agent and is known to suppress TNC induction, dose-dependently inhibited delayed cerebral infarction and improved outcomes in a pilot clinical study. Thus, further studies may facilitate application of TNC as biomarkers for non-invasive diagnosis or assessment of EBI and DCI, and lead to development of a molecular target drug against TNC, contributing to the improvement of post-SAH outcomes.

[PMID: 30225551 DOI: 10.1007/s12975-018-0665-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 62] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2018] [Revised: 08/30/2018] [Accepted: 09/06/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a neurologically destructive stroke in which early brain injury (EBI) plays a pivotal role in poor patient outcomes. Expanding upon our previous work, multiple techniques and methods were used in this preclinical study to further elucidate the mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) against EBI after SAH in murine apolipoprotein E gene-knockout mice (Apoe-/-, KO) and wild-type mice (WT) on a C57BL/6J background. We reported that Apoe deficiency resulted in a more extensive EBI at 48 h after SAH in mice demonstrated by MRI scanning and immunohistochemical staining and exhibited more extensive white matter injury and neuronal apoptosis than WT mice. These changes were associated with an increase in NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) expression, an important regulator of both oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, immunohistochemical analysis revealed that NOX2 was abundantly expressed in activated M1 microglia. The JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway, an upstream regulator of NOX2, was increased in WT mice and activated to an even greater extent in Apoe-/- mice; whereas, the JAK2-specific inhibitor, AG490, reduced NOX2 expression, oxidative stress, and inflammation in Apoe-deficient mice. Also, apoE-mimetic peptide COG1410 suppressed the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway and significantly reduced M1 microglia activation with subsequent attenuation of oxidative stress and inflammation after SAH. Taken together, apoE and apoE-mimetic peptide have whole-brain protective effects that may reduce EBI after SAH via M1 microglial quiescence through the attenuation of the JAK2/STAT3/NOX2 signaling pathway axis.

Abstract
Hemoglobin contributes to brain cell damage and death following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). While CD163, a hemoglobin scavenger receptor, can mediate the clearance of extracellular hemoglobin it has not been well-studied in SAH. In the current study, a filament perforation SAH model was performed in male rats. T2-weighted and T2*-weighted scans were carried out using a 7.0-Tesla MR scanner 24 h after perforation. T2 lesions and hydrocephalus were determined on T2-weighted images. A grading system based on MRI was used to assess SAH severity. The effects of SAH on CD163 were determined by immunohistochemistry staining and Western blots. SAH led to a marked increase in CD163 levels in cortex, white matter and periventricular regions from days 1 to 7. CD163 stained cells were co-localized with neurons, microglia/macrophages, oligodendrocytes and cleaved caspase-3-positive cells, but not astrocytes. Furthermore, CD163 protein levels were increased in rats with higher SAH grades, the presence of T2 lesions on MRI, or hydrocephalus. In conclusion, CD163 expression is markedly upregulated after SAH. It is associated with more severe hemorrhage, as well as MRI T2 lesion and hydrocephalus development.

Abstract
Progressive white matter (WM) impairments caused by subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) contribute to cognitive deficits and poor clinical prognoses; however, their pathogenetic mechanisms are poorly understood. We investigated the role of nexilin and oligodendrocyte progenitor cell (OPC)-mediated repair in a mouse model of experimental SAH generated via left endovascular perforation. Nexilin expression was enhanced by the elevated migration of OPCs after SAH. Knocking down nexilin by siRNA reduced OPC migration both in vitro and in vivo and abridged WM repair. In contrast, the protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1), Ras-proximate-1 (RAP1) and phosphorylated RAP1 (pRAP1) levels in WM were elevated after SAH. The genetic inhibition of PAR1 reduced RAP1 and pRAP1 expression, further enhancing nexilin expression. When delivered at an early stage at a concentration of 25 µg/kg, thrombin receptor antagonist peptide along with PAR1 knockdown rescued the down-regulation of myelin basic protein and improved remyelination at the later stage of SAH. Our results suggest that nexilin is required for OPC migration and remyelination following SAH, as it negatively regulates PAR1/RAP1 signaling, thus providing a promising therapeutic target in WM repair and functional recovery.

Abstract
Compelling evidence has indicated that imbalance between apoptosis and autophagy may be involved in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of melatonin in the homeostasis of apoptosis and autophagy. One-hundred and forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats were intraperitoneally injected with melatonin or vehicle 2 h after SAH induction. Western blotting and an immunofluorescent assay were performed to detect the expression of apoptosis- and autophagy-related proteins. The neuroprotective effect of melatonin attenuating SAH-induced neurological deficit and brain edema may be associated with the suppression of SAH-induced neuronal apoptosis and autophagy. Furthermore, melatonin inhibited the cleavage of mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1 (MST1) protein by reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) content. These effects of melatonin on regulating the homeostasis between apoptosis and autophagy could be reversed by an MST1 agonist, chelerythrine, via enhancement of MST1 cleavage. In conclusion, exogenous melatonin alleviates SAH-induced early brain injury (EBI) by suppressing excessive neuronal apoptosis and autophagy. The underlying mechanism may, at least in part, involve the ROS-MST1 pathway.

Transl Stroke Res 2017; 8:10.1007/s12975-017-0540-8.

Abstract
Mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1 (MST1) is found to promote neuronal apoptosis. Protein-L-isoaspartate (D-aspartate) O-methyltransferase (PCMT1), an anti-apoptosis factor, was recently identified as an MST1-interacting protein. This study aims to explore the potential role of PCMT1 in reducing MST1-induced neuronal apoptosis after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in rats. One hundred ninety-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats were used. An exogenous PCMT1 agonist, CGP 3466B, was injected subcutaneously 1 h after the SAH induced by endovascular perforation. Chelerythrine or calyculin A was given immediately via intracerebroventricular administration after SAH. The SAH grade, Garcia score, and brain water content were measured at 24 and 72 h after the SAH. Neuronal apoptosis was detected by an immunofluorescent assay. The expression levels of endogenous PCMT1, MST1, phospho-MST1 (p-MST1), cleaved MST1 (cl-MST1), and apoptosis-related proteins were studied by western blotting. The expression of PCMT1 and MST1 decreased, while the level of active caspase 3 increased in rats after SAH. CGP 3466B treatment improved neurobehavioral function, reduced brain water content, inhibited the activity of MST1, and relieved neuronal apoptosis. These neuroprotective effects were significantly weakened either through accelerating MST1 phosphorylation by calyculin A or increasing cl-MST1 by chelerythrine. PCMT1 inhibited neuronal apoptosis by reducing MST1 phosphorylation and the level of cl-MST1. PCMT1/MST1 pathway might be an alternative therapeutic target for alleviating early brain injury after SAH.

Transl Stroke Res 2017; 8:10.1007/s12975-017-0533-7. [PMID: 28405804 DOI: 10.1007/s12975-017-0533-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2017] [Revised: 02/21/2017] [Accepted: 03/27/2017] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) is currently used in combination with endovascular procedures to enhance recanalization and cerebral reperfusion and is also currently administered as standard-of-care thrombolytic therapy to patients within 3-4.5 h of an ischemic stroke. Since tPA is not neuroprotective or cytoprotective, adjuvant therapy with a neuroprotective or an optimized cytoprotective compound is required to provide the best care to stroke victims to maximally promote clinical recovery. In this article, we describe the use of a sensitive standardized protease assay with CH3SO2-D-hexahydrotyrosine-Gly-Arg-p-nitroanilide•AcOH, a chromogenic protease substrate that is cleaved to 4-nitroaniline (p-nitroaniline) and measured spectrophotometrically at 405 nm (OD405 nm), and how the assay can be used as an effective screening assay to study drug-tPA interactions. While we focus on two compounds of interest in our drug development pipeline, the assay is broadly applicable to all small molecule neuroprotective or cytoprotective compounds currently being discovered and developed worldwide. In this present study, we found that the specific tPA inhibitor, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1; 0.25 μM), significantly (p < 0.0001) inhibited 4-nitroaniline release, by 97.74% during the 10-min duration of the assay, which is indicative of tPA protease inhibition. In addition, two lead chromone cytoprotective candidates, 2-(3',4',5'-trihydroxyphenyl)chromen-4-one (3',4',5'-trihydroxyflavone) (CSMC-19) and 3-hydroxy-2-[3-hydroxy-4-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)phenyl]benzo[h]chromen-4-one (CSMC-140), also significantly (p < 0.05) reduced 4-nitroaniline accumulation, but to a lesser extent. The reduction was 68 and 45%, respectively, at 10 μM, and extrapolated IC50 values were 4.37 and >10 μM for CSMC-19 and CSMC-140, respectively. Using bonafide 4-nitroaniline, we then demonstrated that the reduction of 4-nitroaniline detection was not due to drug-4-nitroaniline quenching of signal detection at OD405 nm. In conclusion, the results suggest that high concentrations of both cytoprotectives reduced 4-nitroaniline production in vitro, but the inhibition only occurs with concentrations 104-1025-fold that of EC50 values in an efficacy assay. Thus, CSMC-19 and CSMC-140 should be further developed and evaluated in embolic stroke models in the absence or presence of a thrombolytic. If necessary, they could be administered once effective tPA thrombolysis has been confirmed to avoid the possibility that the chromone will reduce the efficacy of tPA in patients. Stroke investigator developing new cytoprotective small molecules should consider adding this sensitive assay to their development and screening repertoire to assess possible drug-tPA interactions in vitro as a de-risking step.

Abstract
Important questions regarding the conduct of scientific research and data transparency have been raised in various scientific forums over the last 10 years. It is becoming clear, that in spite of published RIGOR guidelines, that improvement in the transparency of scientific research is required to focus on the discovery and drug development process so that a treatment can be provided to stroke patients. We have the unique privilege of conducting research using animal models of a disease so that we can address the development of a new therapy, and we should do this with great care and vigilance. This document identifies valuable resources for researchers to become Good Laboratory Practices compliant and increase and improve data transparency and provides guidelines for accurate data management to continue to propel the translational stroke research field forward while recognizing that there is a shortage of research funds worldwide. While data audits are being considered worldwide by funding agencies and they are used extensively by industry, they are still quite controversial for basic researchers. Due to the special exploratory nature of basic and translational science research, the current challenging funding environment, and independent and individualized laboratory activities, it is debatable if current individualized non-standardized data management and monitoring represents the best approach. Thus, herein, we propose steps to prepare research study data in an acceptable form for archival purposes so that standards for translational research data can be comparable to those that are accepted and adhered to by the clinical community. If all translational research laboratories follow and institute the guidelines while conducting translational research, data from all sources may be more comparable and reliable.
