CNS Neurosci Ther 2024; 30:e14697. [PMID: 38544474 PMCID: PMC10973773 DOI: 10.1111/cns.14697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS Neuroinflammation and pyroptosis are key mediators of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury-induced pathogenic cascades. BRCC3, the human homolog of BRCC36, is implicated in neurological disorders and plays a crucial role in neuroinflammation and pyroptosis. However, its effects and potential mechanisms in cerebral I/R injury in mice are unclear. METHODS Cellular localization of BRCC3 and the interaction between BRCC3 and NLRP6 were assessed. Middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO) and oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) models were established in mice and HT22 cells, respectively, to simulate cerebral I/R injury in vivo and in vitro. RESULTS BRCC3 protein expression peaked 24 h after MCAO and OGD/R. BRCC3 knockdown reduced the inflammation and pyroptosis caused by cerebral I/R injury and ameliorated neurological deficits in mice after MCAO. The effects of BRCC3 on inflammation and pyroptosis may be mediated by NLRP6 inflammasome activation. Moreover, both BRCC3 and its N- and C-terminals interacted with NLRP6, and both BRCC3 and its terminals reduced NLRP6 ubiquitination. Additionally, BRCC3 affected the interaction between NLRP6 and ASC, which may be related to inflammasome activation. CONCLUSION BRCC3 shows promise as a novel target to enhance neurological recovery and attenuate the inflammatory responses and pyroptosis caused by NLRP6 activation in cerebral I/R injury.

Orthop Surg 2024; 16:383-390. [PMID: 38114302 PMCID: PMC10834200 DOI: 10.1111/os.13942] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Revised: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/21/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Blood pressure (BP) fluctuation has been demonstrated to be closely associated with stroke. However, at present, no attention is paid to the BP fluctuation following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of this study is to investigate what is BP fluctuation patterns in stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) patients after primary TKA, compare clinical characteristics among different BP fluctuation patterns and determine whether it could predict the occurrence of a 90-day stroke. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted from February 1, 2011 to February 15, 2021. Stroke or TIA patients within 90 days after TKA were included. Data from a hospitalization management system were analyzed, including demographics, smoking status, comorbidities, medications, surgical variables, and 90-day stroke, mortality, and readmission rates. BP fluctuation patterns were defined based on the average BP in the first 3 days after TKA. A logistic regression analysis model was used to identify risk factors for 90-day stroke or TIA following TKA. RESULTS Of the 1687 patients who underwent primary TKA, 4.0% (68/1687) experienced a 90-day stroke or TIA. A total of 63 patients met the inclusion criteria, with an average age of 67.5 years and 55.6% (35/63) female. The number of stroke or TIA patients in each BP fluctuation pattern (T1-T5) was 6 (9.5%), 5 (7.9%), 4 (6.3%), 13 (20.6%), and 35 (55.6%) respectively. Patients with a T5 pattern tended to be older and had a greater reduction in average systolic blood pressure (SBP) 3 days after surgery compared to other patterns. The T5 pattern was associated with a higher occurrence of stroke and a lower occurrence of TIA. Patients with a T5 pattern also had a longer length of stay within 90 days following TKA. After adjusting for confounding factors, average SBP fluctuation ≥40 mmHg and the T5 pattern of BP fluctuation remained risk factors for 90-day stroke or TIA after TKA. CONCLUSION BP fluctuation patterns in the early postoperative period are associated with 90-day stroke and TIA following primary TKA.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers for Diagnosis and the Prognostication of Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Systematic Review. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:10902. [PMID: 37446092 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241310902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Despite the high incidence and burden of stroke, biological biomarkers are not used routinely in clinical practice to diagnose, determine progression, or prognosticate outcomes of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Because of its direct interface with neural tissue, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a potentially valuable source for biomarker development. This systematic review was conducted using three databases. All trials investigating clinical and preclinical models for CSF biomarkers for AIS diagnosis, prognostication, and severity grading were included, yielding 22 human trials and five animal studies for analysis. In total, 21 biomarkers and other multiomic proteomic markers were identified. S100B, inflammatory markers (including tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin 6), and free fatty acids were the most frequently studied biomarkers. The review showed that CSF is an effective medium for biomarker acquisition for AIS. Although CSF is not routinely clinically obtained, a potential benefit of CSF studies is identifying valuable biomarkers from the pathophysiologic microenvironment that ultimately inform optimization of targeted low-abundance assays from peripheral biofluid samples (e.g., plasma). Several important catabolic and anabolic markers can serve as effective measures of diagnosis, etiology identification, prognostication, and severity grading. Trials with large cohorts studying the efficacy of biomarkers in altering clinical management are still needed.

Abstract
Inter-α-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain H4 (ITIH4) modulates atherosclerosis, lipid, and inflammation, which is involved in the development of acute ischemic stroke. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the longitudinal change and prognostic role of ITIH4 in acute ischemic stroke. In 267 patients with acute ischemic stroke, serum ITIH4 after admission (baseline), the 1st day after admission (D1), D3, D7, and D30, and inflammatory cytokines at baseline were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Additionally, serum ITIH4 of 30 controls after enrollment was detected by ELISA. ITIH4 was reduced in acute ischemic stroke patients than controls [median (interquartile range, IQR): 131.0 (95.5-194.3) vs. 418.6 (241.5-506.8) ng/mL] (P < 0.001). Among acute ischemic stroke patients, ITIH4 was negatively associated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (r = -0.211, P = 0.001), interleukin (IL)-1β (r = -0.164, P = 0.007), IL-6 (r = -0.121, P = 0.049), and IL-17A (r = -0.188, P = 0.002). ITIH4 presented a decreased trend from admission to D3, then increased from D3 to D30 (P < 0.001). The 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year cumulative recurrence rate was 7.5%, 18.0%, and 19.1%, respectively; meanwhile, 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year cumulative death rate was 2.2%, 7.1%, and 7.1%, accordingly. The further analysis presented that ITIH4 at baseline (P = 0.002), D1 (P = 0.049), D3 (P = 0.003), D7 (P < 0.001), and D30 (P < 0.001) was decreased in recurrent patients than non-recurrent patients; besides, ITIH4 at D3 (P = 0.017), D7 (P = 0.004), and D30 (P = 0.002), but not at baseline (P = 0.151) or D1 (P = 0.013), was decreased in deaths than survivors. Serum ITIH4 declines at first and then elevates with time, and its reduction is correlated with higher inflammation, increased risk of recurrence and mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Long noncoding RNA MALAT1 (lnc-MALAT1) modulates atherosclerotic progression, myocardial ischemia injury, and systematic inflammation, which may be closely involved in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) pathogenesis. Thus, the current study intended to explore the relationship of lnc-MALAT1 to disease risk, features, cytokines, and prognostication in AMI patients. METHODS This multicenter study consecutively enrolled 160 newly diagnosed AMI patients and 50 controls (angina pectoris patients). Their peripheral blood mononuclear cells were obtained to measure lnc-MALAT1 by RT-qPCR. Serum cytokines in AMI patients were detected by ELISA. In addition, AMI patients were followed up for major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) risk evaluation. RESULTS Lnc-MALAT1 was higher in AMI patients than in controls (median: 2.245 vs. 0.996, p = 0.004), and it also presented a good capacity for differentiating AMI patients from controls with an area under the curve of 0.823. Lnc-MALAT1 was positively related to C-reactive protein (p = 0.005), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = 0.022), cardiac troponin I (p = 0.021), and infarct size (p = 0.007), but not other biochemical indexes in AMI patients. Meanwhile, lnc-MALAT1 was positively associated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (p = 0.001), interleukin (IL)-6 (p = 0.031), IL-17A (p = 0.042), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (p = 0.004), and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (p = 0.021) among AMI patients. Importantly, after categorization, lnc-MALAT1 high (vs. low) was related to an elevated MACE accumulation rate (p = 0.035); furthermore, a higher lnc-MALAT1 quartile showed a trend to be linked with an increased MACE accumulation rate (p = 0.092). CONCLUSION Lnc-MALAT1 may serve as a biomarker for AMI risk, infarct size, inflammation and prognosis, but further validation by large-scale studies is needed.

Abstract
Neurological disorders are the foremost occurring diseases across the globe resulting in progressive dysfunction, loss of neuronal structure ultimately cell death. Therefore, attention has been drawn toward the natural resources for the search of neuroprotective agents. Plant-based food bioactives have emerged as potential neuroprotective agents for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. This comprehensive review primarily focuses on various plant food bioactive, mechanisms, therapeutic targets, in vitro and in vivo studies in the treatment of neurological disorders to explore whether they are boon or bane for neurological disorders. In addition, the clinical perspective of plant food bioactives in neurological disorders are also highlighted. Scientific evidences point toward the enormous therapeutic efficacy of plant food bioactives in the prevention or treatment of neurological disorders. Nevertheless, identification of food bioactive components accountable for the neuroprotective effects, mechanism, clinical trials, and consolidation of information flow are warranted. Plant food bioactives primarily act by mediating through various pathways including oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, apoptosis, excitotoxicity, specific proteins, mitochondrial dysfunction, and reversing neurodegeneration and can be used for the prevention and therapy of neurodegenerative disorders. In conclusion, the plant based food bioactives are boon for neurological disorders.

Abstract
Background Acetyl‐coenzyme A carboxylase 1 (ACC1) regulates lipid homeostasis, T helper (Th) cell differentiation, oxidative stress, inflammation response, and neurological process, engaging in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) pathogenesis, while its clinical utility in AIS is unclear. Hence, this study intended to explore the correlation among blood ACC1, Th17, and Th1 cells, and ACC1’s potency as a prognostic biomarker for AIS management. Methods ACC1 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 160 AIS patients and 30 controls were determined using RT‐qPCR; blood Th17 and Th1 cells in AIS patients were quantified by flow cytometry. Results ACC1 was increased in AIS patients compared with controls (median (interquartile range): 2.540 (1.753–3.548) vs. 0.980 (0.655–1.743), p < 0.001), which exhibited a good value to reflect AIS risk with the area under the curve of 0.872 (95% CI: 0.805–0.939). Moreover, ACC1 was positively linked with Th17 (r = 0.374, p < 0.001) and Th1 (r = 0.178, p = 0.024) cells in AIS patients. Additionally, ACC1 (r = 0.328, p < 0.001), Th17 (r = 0.272, p = 0.001), and Th1 cells (r = 0.195, p = 0.014) were positively associated with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score in AIS patients. ACC1 high vs. low (p = 0.038) and Th17 high vs. low (p = 0.026) were related to shortened recurrence‐free survival (RFS) in AIS patients, while Th1 cells (p = 0.179) were not correlated with RFS. Whereas ACC1 (p = 0.248), Th17 (p = 0.079), and Th1 cells (p = 0.130) were not linked with overall survival (OS) in AIS patients. Conclusion Circulating ACC1 overexpression correlates with increased Th17, Th1 cells, NIHSS score, and shortened RFS in AIS patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Reminiscence therapy provides benefits among first-episode acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients and their caregivers. This study intended to further compare the effect of reminiscence therapy plus usual care (RTUC) and usual care (UC) on cognitive function, anxiety, and depression among recurrent AIS patients. METHODS Totally, 160 recurrent AIS patients were enrolled and randomized in a 1:1 ratio into the RTUC group (N = 81) and UC group (N = 79), then a 12-month corresponding intervention was conducted in each group. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were evaluated on discharge (M0), at month (M) 3, M6, M9, and M12 after discharge. RESULTS MMSE scores at M6 (27.0 ± 1.6 vs. 26.3 ± 2.3, P = 0.031) and M12 (27.0 ± 1.7 vs. 26.1 ± 2.4, P = 0.009) were elevated, while cognitive impairment rate at M12 (29.2% vs. 45.7%, P = 0.042) and cognitive impairment severity at M12 (P = 0.029) were declined in RTUC group compared to UC group. Meanwhile, the HADS-anxiety scores at M9 (5.7 ± 3.1 vs. 6.9 ± 4.0, P = 0.046) and M12 (5.6 ± 2.7 vs. 7.0 ± 4.3, P = 0.024), anxiety rate at M12 (22.2% vs. 38.2%, P = 0.039) and anxiety severity at M12 (P = 0.018) were declined in RTUC group compared to UC group. Besides, the HADS-depression score at M12 (5.7 ± 3.1 vs. 6.8 ± 3.3, P = 0.043) was decreased in RTUC group compared to UC group, but depression rate and severity were not different between the two groups at each visit point (all P > 0.05). CONCLUSION RTUC program elevates cognitive functions and alleviates mental problems in recurrent AIS patients.

Abstract
Background T‐helper (Th) cells regulate immunity and inflammation, and modulate cognitive impairment in both cardio‐cerebrovascular and neurological diseases. This study aimed to explore the correlation of longitudinal change of Th1/2/17 cells with cognitive impairment and prognosis in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods Th1/2/17 cells were detected by flow cytometry in peripheral blood samples from 150 AIS patients at admission (baseline), Day (D)1, D3, and D7 after admission, and from 30 controls. Mini‐Mental State Examination (MMSE) score among AIS patients at discharge was assessed. Stroke recurrence and mortality were evaluated. Results Th1 (p = 0.013) and Th17 cells (p < 0.001) but not Th2 cells (p = 0.105) were elevated in AIS patients versus controls. Th1 cells (p = 0.027) and Th17 cells (p < 0.001) but not Th2 cells (p = 0.227) were positively correlated with NIHSS score in AIS patients. Furthermore, Th1 and Th17 cells elevated from baseline to D3 and then decreased on D7 after AIS onset, while Th2 cells illustrated an opposite trend (all p < 0.001). Th17 cells on D1 (p = 0.011), D3 (p = 0.014), and D7 (p < 0.001) were correlated with lower MMSE score, and their levels on D3 (p = 0.033) and D7 (p = 0.004) were related to elevated cognitive impairment. Th1 and Th2 cells were not related to cognitive function (all p > 0.05). Additionally, Th17 cells at baseline, D1, D3, and D7 (all p < 0.05) were increased in recurrent patients versus non‐recurrent patients, and in survived patients versus dead patients, but Th1 or Th2 cells did not vary (all p > 0.05). Conclusion Th17 cells correlate with increased cognitive impairment, stroke recurrence, and mortality among AIS patients.

Wang M, Pang X, Lu H, Wang X. Clinical role of serum histone deacetylase 4 measurement in acute ischemic stroke: Relation to disease risk, severity, and prognosis. J Clin Lab Anal 2022; 36:e24372. [PMID: 35353946 PMCID: PMC9102630 DOI: 10.1002/jcla.24372] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) is engaged in the pathophysiology of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) through modulating atherosclerosis, inflammation and neurocyte death. This study aimed to investigate the clinical role of HDAC4 in AIS. METHODS Serum samples were collected from 176 AIS patients and 80 controls for HDAC4 detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In AIS patients, disease severity was assessed by National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score and their recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated, inflammatory cytokines and adhesion molecules were detected by ELISA. RESULTS HDAC4 was declined in AIS patients vs. controls (p < 0.001), it also had certain ability of distinguishing AIS patients from controls with an area under curve of 0.748 (95% confidence interval: 0.689-0.806). Among AIS patients, HDAC4 was negatively linked with NIHSS score (p < 0.001) but no other clinical features (all p > 0.05). Moreover, HDAC4 was negatively related to interleukin (IL)-17 (p = 0.010) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (p = 0.001), while it was not correlated with IL-1β (p = 0.081) or IL-6 (p = 0.074). Furthermore, HDAC4 was negatively associated with intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (p < 0.001) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (p = 0.003). During a median follow-up of 19.0 months, 17 (9.7%) patients had recurrence and 10 (5.7%) patients died. Additionally, high HDAC4 was linked with prolonged RFS (p = 0.044) but not OS (p = 0.079). CONCLUSION HDAC4 possesses the potential to monitor disease risk, inflammation and estimate recurrence of AIS, while further study with larger scale is needed to verify our findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pei Yuan Tong Nao (PYTN) capsules has been widely used for the treatment of cerebrovascular disease, including cerebral infarction. However, the mechanisms of action of PYTN capsule on cerebral infarction are ambiguous and unclear. We conducted a protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PYTN capsules for the treatment of cerebral infarction. METHODS A comprehensive search of several databases from 1966 to February 2022 will be conducted. The databases includes Ovid Medline In-Process & Other NonIndexed Citations, Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid EMBASE, Ovid PsycINFO, Ovid Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Scopus. Two authors independently performed the literature searching, data extraction, and quality evaluation. The risk of bias in each included study will be assessed utilizing the Cochrane Collaboration's risk of bias tool. The Review Manager 5.3 (Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, UK) will be used to analyze the data. RESULT A synthesis of current evidence of PYTN capsules for cerebral infarction will be provided in this protocol. CONCLUSION This review will provide more reliable references to help clinicians make decisions when dealing with cerebral infarction.

J Neuroimmune Pharmacol 2022; 17:350-366. [PMID: 34596819 PMCID: PMC9726789 DOI: 10.1007/s11481-021-10025-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Salvinorin A (SA), a highly selective kappa opioid receptor agonist, has been shown to reduce brain infarct volume and improve neurological function after ischemic stroke. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully understood yet. Therefore, we explored whether SA provides neuroprotective effects by regulating the immune response after ischemic stroke both in the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral circulation. In this study, adult male mice were subjected to transient Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (tMCAO) and then were treated intranasally with SA (50 μg/kg) or with the vehicle dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Multiple behavioral tests were used to evaluate neurofunction. Flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining were used to evaluate the infiltration of peripheral immune cells into the brain. The tracer cadaverine and endogenous immunoglobulin G (IgG) extravasation were used to detect blood brain barrier leakage. We observed that SA intranasal administration after ischemic stroke decreased the expression of pro-inflammatory factors in the brain. SA promoted the polarization of microglia/macrophages into a transitional phenotype and decreased the pro-inflammatory phenotype in the brain after tMCAO. Interestingly, SA treatment scarcely altered the number of peripheral immune cells but decreased the macrophage and neutrophil infiltration into the brain at 24 h after tMCAO. Furthermore, SA treatment also preserved BBB integrity, reduced long-term brain atrophy and white matter injury, as well as improved the long-term neurofunctional outcome in mice. In this study, intranasal administration of SA improved long-term neurological function via immuno-modulation and by preserving blood-brain barrier integrity in a mouse ischemic stroke model, suggesting that SA could potentially serve as an alternative treatment strategy for ischemic stroke.

Therapeutic Nanoparticles for the Different Phases of Ischemic Stroke. Life (Basel) 2021; 11:life11060482.

Abstract
Stroke represents the second leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Ischemic strokes are the most prevalent type of stroke, and they are characterized by a series of pathological events prompted by an arterial occlusion that leads to a heterogeneous pathophysiological response through different hemodynamic phases, namely the hyperacute, acute, subacute, and chronic phases. Stroke treatment is highly reliant on recanalization therapies, which are limited to only a subset of patients due to their narrow therapeutic window; hence, there is a huge need for new stroke treatments. Nonetheless, the vast majority of promising treatments are not effective in the clinical setting due to their inability to cross the blood-brain barrier and reach the brain. In this context, nanotechnology-based approaches such as nanoparticle drug delivery emerge as the most promising option. In this review, we will discuss the current status of nanotechnology in the setting of stroke, focusing on the diverse available nanoparticle approaches targeted to the different pathological and physiological repair mechanisms involved in each of the stroke phases.
