Abstract
High-mobility group box 1 was first discovered in the calf thymus as a DNA-binding nuclear protein and has been widely studied in diverse fields, including neurology and neuroscience. High-mobility group box 1 in the extracellular space functions as a pro-inflammatory damage-associated molecular pattern, which has been proven to play an important role in a wide variety of central nervous system disorders such as ischemic stroke, Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and traumatic brain injury. Several drugs that inhibit high-mobility group box 1 as a damage-associated molecular pattern, such as glycyrrhizin, ethyl pyruvate, and neutralizing anti-high-mobility group box 1 antibodies, are commonly used to target high-mobility group box 1 activity in central nervous system disorders. Although it is commonly known for its detrimental inflammatory effect, high-mobility group box 1 has also been shown to have beneficial pro-regenerative roles in central nervous system disorders. In this narrative review, we provide a brief summary of the history of high-mobility group box 1 research and its characterization as a damage-associated molecular pattern, its downstream receptors, and intracellular signaling pathways, how high-mobility group box 1 exerts the repair-favoring roles in general and in the central nervous system, and clues on how to differentiate the pro-regenerative from the pro-inflammatory role. Research targeting high-mobility group box 1 in the central nervous system may benefit from differentiating between the two functions rather than overall suppression of high-mobility group box 1.

Abstract
Stroke in China is distinguished by its high rates of morbidity, recurrence, disability, and mortality. The ultra-early administration of rtPA is essential for restoring perfusion in acute ischemic stroke, though it concurrently elevates the risk of hemorrhagic transformation. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) emerges as a pivotal player in neuroinflammation after brain ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion. Released passively by necrotic cells and actively secreted, including direct secretion of HMGB1 into the extracellular space and packaging of HMGB1 into intracellular vesicles by immune cells, glial cells, platelets, and endothelial cells, HMGB1 represents a prototypical damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP). It is intricately involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, thromboembolism, and detrimental inflammation during the early phases of ischemic stroke. Moreover, HMGB1 significantly contributes to neurovascular remodeling and functional recovery in later stages. Significantly, HMGB1 mediates hemorrhagic transformation by facilitating neuroinflammation, directly compromising the integrity of the blood-brain barrier, and enhancing MMP9 secretion through its interaction with rtPA. As a systemic inflammatory factor, HMGB1 is also implicated in post-stroke depression and an elevated risk of stroke-associated pneumonia. The role of HMGB1 extends to influencing the pathogenesis of ischemia by polarizing various subtypes of immune and glial cells. This includes mediating excitotoxicity due to excitatory amino acids, autophagy, MMP9 release, NET formation, and autocrine trophic pathways. Given its multifaceted role, HMGB1 is recognized as a crucial therapeutic target and prognostic marker for ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic transformation. In this review, we summarize the structure and redox properties, secretion and pathways, regulation of immune cell activity, the role of pathophysiological mechanisms in stroke, and hemorrhage transformation for HMGB1, which will pave the way for developing new neuroprotective drugs, reduction of post-stroke neuroinflammation, and expansion of thrombolysis time window.

Abstract
Background Ischemic stroke frequently leads to a condition known as post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI). Timely recognition of individuals susceptible to developing PSCI could facilitate the implementation of personalized strategies to mitigate cognitive deterioration. High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a protein released by ischemic neurons and implicated in inflammation after stroke. Circulating levels of HMGB1 could potentially serve as a prognostic indicator for the onset of cognitive impairment following ischemic stroke. Objective To investigate the predictive value of circulating HMGB1 concentrations in the acute phase of ischemic stroke for the development of cognitive dysfunction at the 3-month follow-up. Methods A total of 192 individuals experiencing their initial episode of acute cerebral infarction were prospectively recruited for this longitudinal investigation. Concentrations of circulating HMGB1 were quantified using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique within the first 24 hours following hospital admission. Patients underwent neurological evaluation including NIHSS scoring. Neuropsychological evaluation was conducted at the 3-month follow-up after the cerebrovascular event, employing the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) as the primary tool for assessing cognitive performance. Multivariable logistic regression models were employed to investigate the relationship between circulating HMGB1 concentrations and cognitive dysfunction following stroke, which was operationalized as a MoCA score below 26, while controlling for potential confounders including demographic characteristics, stroke severity, vascular risk factors, and laboratory parameters. Results Of 192 patients, 84 (44%) developed PSCI. Circulating HMGB1 concentrations were significantly elevated in individuals who developed cognitive dysfunction following stroke compared to those who maintained cognitive integrity (8.4 ± 1.2 ng/mL vs 4.6 ± 0.5 ng/mL, respectively; p < 0.001). The prevalence of PSCI showed a dose-dependent increase with higher HMGB1 quartiles. After controlling for potential confounders such as demographic factors (age, gender, and education), stroke severity, vascular risk factors, and laboratory parameters in a multivariable logistic regression model, circulating HMGB1 concentrations emerged as a significant independent predictor of cognitive dysfunction following stroke (regression coefficient = 0.236, p < 0.001). Conclusion Circulating HMGB1 concentrations quantified within the first 24 hours following acute cerebral infarction are significantly and independently correlated with the likelihood of developing cognitive dysfunction at the 3-month follow-up, even after accounting for potential confounding factors. HMGB1 may be a novel biomarker to identify patients likely to develop post-stroke cognitive impairment for targeted preventive interventions.

J Neurochem 2023; 164:94-114.

Abstract
Necroptosis-mediated cell death is an important mechanism in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)-induced secondary brain injury (SBI). Our previous study has demonstrated that receptor-interacting protein 1 (RIP1) mediated necroptosis in SBI after ICH. However, further mechanisms, such as the roles of receptor-interacting protein 3 (RIP3), mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), and Ca2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMK II), remain unclear. We hypothesized that RIP3, MLKL, and CaMK II might participate in necroptosis after ICH, including their phosphorylation. The ICH model was induced by autologous blood injection. First, we found the activation of necroptosis after ICH in brain tissues surrounding the hematoma (propidium iodide staining). Meanwhile, the phosphorylation and expression of RIP3, MLKL, and CaMK II were differently up-regulated (western blotting and immunofluorescent staining). The specific inhibitors could suppress RIP3, MLKL, and CaMK II (GSK'872 for RIP3, necrosulfonamide for MLKL, and KN-93 for CaMK II). We found the necroptosis surrounding the hematoma and the concrete interactions in RIP3-MLKL/RIP3-CaMK II also both decreased after the specific intervention (co-immunoprecipitation). Then we conducted the short-/long-term neurobehavioral tests, and the rats with specific inhibition mostly had better performance. We also found less blood-brain barrier (BBB) injury, and less neuron loss (Nissl staining) in intervention groups, which supported the neurobehavioral tests. Besides, oxidative stress and inflammation were also alleviated with intervention, which had significant less reactive oxygen species (ROS), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), Iba1, and GFAP surrounding the hematoma. These results confirmed that RIP3-phosphorylated MLKL and CaMK II participate in ICH-induced necroptosis and could provide potential targets for the treatment of ICH patients.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is one of the common clinical neurological emergencies. Its incidence accounts for about 5-9% of cerebral stroke patients. Even surviving patients often suffer from severe adverse prognoses such as hemiplegia, aphasia, cognitive dysfunction and even death. Inflammatory response plays an important role during early nerve injury in SAH. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), pattern recognition receptors, are important components of the body's innate immune system, and they are usually activated by damage-associated molecular pattern molecules. Studies have shown that with TLR 4 as an essential member of the TLRs family, the inflammatory transduction pathway mediated by it plays a vital role in brain injury after SAH. After SAH occurrence, large amounts of blood enter the subarachnoid space. This can produce massive damage-associated molecular pattern molecules that bind to TLR4, which activates inflammatory response and causes early brain injury, thus resulting in serious adverse prognoses. In this paper, the process in research on TLR4-mediated inflammatory response mechanism in brain injury after SAH was reviewed to provide a new thought for clinical treatment.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), resulting majorly from the rupture of intracranial aneurysms, is a potentially devastating disease with high morbidity and mortality. The bleeding aneurysms can be successfully secured; however, the toxic and mechanical impact of the blood extravasation into the subarachnoid space damages the brain cells leading to the release of different damage-associated molecular pattern molecules (DAMPs). DAMPs upregulate the inflammation after binding their cognate receptors on the immune cells and underlies the early and delayed brain injury after aSAH. Moreover, these molecules are also associated with different post-aSAH complications, which lead to poor clinical outcomes. Among these DAMPs, HMGB1 represents a prototypical protein DAMP that has been well characterized for its proinflammatory role after aSAH and during different post-aSAH complications. However, recent investigations have uncovered yet another face of HMGB1, which is involved in the promotion of brain tissue remodeling, neurovascular repair, and anti-inflammatory effects after SAH. These different faces rely on different redox states of HMGB1 over the course of time after SAH. Elucidation of the dynamics of these redox states of HMGB1 has high biomarker as well as therapeutic potential. This review mainly highlights these recent findings along with the conventionally described normal role of HMGB1 as a nuclear protein and as a proinflammatory molecule during disease (aSAH).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the protective effect of Ghrelin on EBI caused by SAH through the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway mediated by Tim-3. METHODS Rats were divided into four groups (n = 6): Sham group (Sham), SAH+vehicle group (SAH), SAH + 0.02 μg/kg rhGhrelin group (rhGhrelin-L), SAH + 0.04 μg/kg rhGhrelin group (rhGhrelin-H). At 48 h after SAH, the behavioral impairment in rats was examined for using neurobehavioral scores. The pathological change in the temporal basal brain tissue was observed by HE, and the expression of GHSR-1α and Tim-3 in the temporal basal brain tissue was observed by Western blot. To further validate that rhGhrelin could inhibit SAH-induced EBI by the Tim-3-mediated HMGB1/NF-κB pathway, we treated rats with the AAV-Tim-3. The contents of the inflammatory factors IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6 was determined by ELISA, apoptosis was detected by TUNEL, the neurons were visualized by Nissl staining, the expression of GHSR-1α,Tim-3, HMGB1, RAGE, NF-κB p65 was determined by Western blot. RESULTS Compared with the SAH group, rats treated with rhGhrelin had a significantly lower neurobehavioral score, significantly decreased inflammatory factors IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6 expression, significantly decreased apoptosis index, and significantly decreased Tim-3, HMGB1, RAGE, NF-κB p65 expression(p < 0.01). The protective effect of rhGhrelin on the SAH-induced EBI was reversed by the AAV-Tim-3. CONCLUSION Ghrelin has beneficial effects against SAH-induced EBI by inhibiting the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway, which may be regulated by Tim-3.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early brain injury (EBI) has been considered as the major contributor to the neurological dysfunction and poor clinical outcomes of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Studies showed that apelin-13 exhibits a neuroprotective effect in brain damage induced by cerebral ischemia. However, it remains unclear whether apelin-13 could exhibit the protective functions following SAH. The present study aimed to validate the neuroprotective role of apelin-13 in SAH, and further investigated the underlying mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS We constructed SAH rat model and we found that apelin-13 significantly alleviated neurological disorder and brain edema, improved memory deficits in SAH rats. Apelin-13 treatment decreased contents of TNF-α and IL-1β in cerebral spinal fluid of SAH rat by using ELISA. Apelin-13 treatment promoted the expression of APJ and Bcl-2, and decreased the level of active caspase-3 and Bax in the temporal cortex after SAH by using western blot. Also, apelin-13 attenuated the cortical cell death and neuronal degeneration as shown by TUNEL, FJB and Nissl staining. However, ML221, an inhibitor of APJ, significantly reversed all the above neuroprotective effects of apelin-13. Moreover, a neuron-microglia co-culture system, which mimic SAH in vitro, confirmed the protective effect of apelin-13 on neurons and the inhibitory effect on inflammation through apoptosis-related proteins. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrated that apelin-13 exhibit a neuroprotective role after SAH through inhibition of apoptosis in an APJ dependent manner.

Abstract
AIM Both MFGE8 and HMGB1 were vital players for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. However, whether HMGB1 was served as the downstream target of MFGE8 was unknown. To test this new mechanism, we performed the SAH model in rats. METHOD All treatments were injected intraventricularly into the right lateral ventricles. SAH grade, brain water content, and neurological function scores were evaluated. HMGB1 expression was studied by double immunofluorescence staining. HE and Nissl's staining were performed to observe the pathological change. Inflammatory factors were measured by ELISA method. RESULTS High expression of MFGE8 could improve neurological function and reduce the brain edema and pro-inflammatory factors. Injection of rhMFGE8 inhibited HMGB1. To further verify the regulation of MFGE8 in HMGB1, we used rhHMGB1 and glycyrrhizin, and the results indicated MFGE8 produced excellent effect on SAH rats via inhibiting HMGB1. CONCLUSION In a word, MFGE8 improved EBI caused by SAH, depending on HMGB1 that was the potential mechanism.

[PMID: 35069821 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2021.11063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2021] [Accepted: 11/04/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common gastrointestinal disease that affects 1 million individuals worldwide. Inflammation and apoptosis are considered to be important pathogenic mechanisms of AP, and high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) has been shown to play a particularly important role in the etiology of this disease. MicroRNAs (miRs) are emerging as critical regulators of gene expression and, as such, they represent a promising area of therapeutic target identification and development for a variety of diseases, including AP. Using the online database query (microRNA.org), the current study identified a site in the 3' untranslated region of HMGB1 mRNA that was a viable target for miR-340-5p. The present study aimed to investigate the association between miR-340-5p and HMGB1 expression in pancreatic acinar cells following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment by performing luciferase, western blotting and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR assays. The results suggest that miR-340-5p attenuates the induction of HMGB1 by LPS, thereby inhibiting inflammation and apoptosis via blunted activation of Toll-like receptor 4 and enhanced AKT signaling. Thus, the therapeutic application of miR-340-5p may be a useful strategy in AP via upregulation of HMGB1 and subsequent promotion of inflammation and apoptosis.

Abstract
Stressors ranging from psychogenic/social to neurogenic/injury to systemic/microbial can impact microglial inflammatory processes, but less is known regarding their effects on trophic properties of microglia. Recent studies do suggest that microglia can modulate neuronal plasticity, possibly through brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). This is particularly important given the link between BDNF and neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative pathology. We posit that certain activated states of microglia play a role in maintaining the delicate balance of BDNF release onto neuronal synapses. This focused review will address how different "activators" influence the expression and release of microglial BDNF and address the question of tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) expression on microglia. We will then assess sex-based differences in microglial function and BDNF expression, and how microglia are involved in the stress response and related disorders such as depression. Drawing on research from a variety of other disorders, we will highlight challenges and opportunities for modulators that can shift microglia to a "trophic" phenotype with a view to potential therapeutics relevant for stressor-related disorders.

Admission serum high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein predicts delayed cerebral ischemia following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Neurosurg Rev 2021; 45:807-817. [PMID: 34302233 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-021-01607-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2021] [Revised: 07/05/2021] [Accepted: 07/13/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) is a prototypical damage associated particle and acts as a key player in aseptic inflammation. HMGB1 appears critical for the crosstalk of a prothrombotic and proinflammatory state that is implicated in mediating and exacerbating ischemic brain injury. The role of HMGB1 in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remains to be elucidated. A prospective, single blinded observational study was designed to investigate the role of HMGB1 in aSAH. Serial serum HMGB1 level quantification on admission day 0, 4, 8, and 12 was performed. Primary outcome measures were delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI - new infarction on CT) and poor functional outcome (90-day modified Rankin Scale 4-6). The role of HMGB1 levels for DCI, functional outcome and radiological vasospasm prediction was analyzed. Collectively, 83 aSAH patients were enrolled. Five patients died within 48 h. In 29/78 patients (37.2%), DCI was identified. In multivariable analysis, radiological vasospasm and admission HMGB1 were independent predictors for DCI. Younger age and higher white blood cell count, but not insult burden (World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies scale, modified Fisher scale, intraparenchymal or intraventricular hematoma existence) correlated with admission HMGB1 levels. Serial HMGB1 levels did not differ between patients with or without DCI, poor functional outcome or radiological vasospasm development. Admission serum HMGB1 does not reflect initial insult burden but serves as an independent biomarker predictive of DCI. Further studies are warranted to disentangle the role of HMGB1 surrounding the sequelae of aSAH.

Abstract
Background This study was performed to identify genes and lncRNAs involved in the pathogenesis of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) from ruptured intracranial aneurysm (RIA). Methods Microarray GSE36791 was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database followed by the identification of significantly different expressed RNAs (DERs, including lncRNA and mRNA) between patients with SAH and healthy individuals. Then, the functional analyses of DEmRNAs were conducted and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was also performed to extract the modules associated with SAH. Following, the lncRNA-mRNA co-expression network was constructed and the gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed to screen key RNA biomarkers involved in the pathogenesis of SAH from RIA. We also verified the results in a bigger dataset GSE7337. Results Totally, 561 DERs, including 25 DElncRNAs and 536 DEmRNAs, were identified. Functional analysis revealed that the DEmRNAs were mainly associated with immune response-associated GO-BP terms and KEGG pathways. Moreover, there were 6 modules significantly positive-correlated with SAH. The lncRNA-mRNA co-expression network contained 2 lncRNAs (LINC00265 and LINC00937) and 169 mRNAs. The GSEA analysis showed that these two lncRNAs were associated with three pathways (cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, neurotrophin signaling pathway, and apoptosis). Additionally, IRAK3 and NFKBIA involved in the neurotrophin signaling pathway and apoptosis while IL1R2, IL18RAP and IL18R1 was associated with cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction pathway. The expression levels of these genes have the same trend in GSE36791 and GSE7337. Conclusion LINC00265 and LINC00937 may be implicated with the pathogenesis of SAH from RIA. They were involved in three important regulatory pathways. 5 mRNAs played important roles in the three pathways.

Abstract
Early or primary injury due to brain aggression, such as mechanical trauma, hemorrhage or is-chemia, triggers the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) in the extracellular space. Some DAMPs, such as S100B, participate in the regulation of cell growth and survival but may also trigger cellular damage as their concentration increases in the extracellular space. When DAMPs bind to pattern-recognition receptors, such as the receptor of advanced glycation end-products (RAGE), they lead to non-infectious inflammation that will contribute to necrotic cell clearance but may also worsen brain injury. In this narrative review, we describe the role and ki-netics of DAMPs and RAGE at the acute phase of brain injury. We searched the MEDLINE database for “DAMPs” or “RAGE” or “S100B” and “traumatic brain injury” or “subarachnoid hemorrhage” or “stroke”. We selected original articles reporting data on acute brain injury pathophysiology, from which we describe DAMPs release and clearance upon acute brain injury, and the implication of RAGE in the development of brain injury. We will also discuss the clinical strategies that emerge from this overview in terms of biomarkers and therapeutic perspectives

Abstract
Receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGEs), a multiligand receptor belonging to the cell-surface immunoglobulin superfamily, has been reported to play a crucial role in neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we tested our hypothesis that the RAGE-specific antagonist FPS-ZM1 is neuroprotective against ischemic brain injury. Distal middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) or sham operation was performed on anesthetized Sprague-Dawley male rats (n = 60), which were then treated with FPS-ZM1 or vehicle (four groups in total = Vehicle + MCAO, FPS-ZM1 + MCAO, Vehicle + sham, and FPS-ZM1 + sham). After 1 week, neurological function was evaluated, and then, brain tissues were collected for 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining, Nissl staining, TUNEL staining, Western blotting, and immunohistochemical analyses. FPS-ZM1 treatment after MCAO markedly attenuated neurological deficits and reduced the infarct area. More interestingly, FPS-ZM1 inhibited ischemia-induced astrocytic activation and microgliosis and decreased the elevated levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, FPS-ZM1 blocked the increase in the level of RAGE and, notably, of DIAPH1, the key cytoplasmic hub for RAGE-ligand-mediated activation of cellular signaling. Accordingly, FPS-ZM1 also reversed the MCAO-induced increase in phosphorylation of NF-κB targets that are potentially downstream from RAGE/DIAPH1. Our findings reveal that FPS-ZM1 treatment reduces neuroinflammation in rats with focal cerebral ischemia and further suggest that the ligand/RAGE/DIAPH1 pathway contributes to this FPS-ZM1-mediated alleviation of neuroinflammation.

CX3CL1/CX3CR1 axis attenuates early brain injury via promoting the delivery of exosomal microRNA-124 from neuron to microglia after subarachnoid hemorrhage. J Neuroinflammation 2020; 17:209. [PMID: 32664984 PMCID: PMC7362528 DOI: 10.1186/s12974-020-01882-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2020] [Accepted: 06/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Microglial activation-mediated neuroinflammation is a major contributor to early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). MicroRNA-124 (miR-124) is the most abundant miRNAs in the central nervous system (CNS) and plays a vital role in microglial activation by targeting protein CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein α (C/EBPα). It has been reported that the CX3CL1/CX3CR1 axis is involved in the delivery of miR-124 from neurons to microglia. METHODS An experimental rat SAH model was established by injecting autologous arterial blood into the prechiasmatic cistern, and cultured primary neurons and microglia were exposed to oxyhemoglobin to mimic SAH in vitro. We additionally exploited specific expression plasmids encoding CX3CL1 and CX3CR1. RESULTS We observed significant decreases in CX3CL1 and CX3CR1 in the brain tissues of SAH patients. We also observed decreases in the levels of CX3CL1 in neurons and CX3CR1 in microglia after SAH in rats. Moreover, microglia exhibited an activated phenotype with macrophage-like morphology and high levels of CD45 and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II after SAH. After overexpression of CX3CL1/CX3CR1, the level of CD45 and MHC class II and the release of inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin 1α and complement 1q were significantly decreased. There was also increased neuronal degeneration and behavior dysfunction after SAH, both of which were inhibited by CX3CL1/CX3CR1 overexpression. Additionally, we found that the delivery of exosomal miR-124 from neurons to microglia was significantly reduced after SAH, accompanied by an increase in C/EBPα expression, and was inhibited by CX3CL1/CX3CR1 overexpression. In conclusion, the CX3CL1/CX3CR1 axis may play protective roles after SAH by promoting the delivery of exosomal miR-124 to microglia and attenuate microglial activation and neuroinflammation. CONCLUSIONS CX3CL1/CX3CR1 axis may be a potential intervention target for the inhibition of SAH-induced EBI by promoting exosome transport of miR-124 to microglia.

Abstract
Brain injuries are devastating conditions, representing a global cause of mortality and morbidity, with no effective treatment to date. Increased evidence supports the role of neuroinflammation in driving several forms of brain injuries. High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein is a pro-inflammatory-like cytokine with an initiator role in neuroinflammation that has been implicated in Traumatic brain injury (TBI) as well as in early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Herein, we discuss the implication of HMGB1-induced neuroinflammatory responses in these brain injuries, mediated through binding to the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), toll-like receptor4 (TLR4) and other inflammatory mediators. Moreover, we provide evidence on the biomarker potential of HMGB1 and the significance of its nucleocytoplasmic translocation during brain injuries along with the promising neuroprotective effects observed upon HMGB1 inhibition/neutralization in TBI and EBI induced by SAH. Overall, this review addresses the current advances on neuroinflammation driven by HMGB1 in brain injuries indicating a future treatment opportunity that may overcome current therapeutic gaps.

Exp Neurol 2020; 332:113386. [PMID: 32589890 DOI: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2020.113386] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2020] [Revised: 05/22/2020] [Accepted: 06/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the common brain diseases in middle-aged and elderly people, with high disability and/or mortality rate, and is a serious public health concern. Both WNK3 kinase and the WNK3/SPAK/NKCC1 signaling pathway play an integral role in maintaining normal cell homeostasis. However, their role and underlying mechanisms in ICH-induced secondary brain injury (SBI) have yet to be elucidated. METHODS We established an ICH model using male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats by injecting autologous arterial blood into the unilateral basal ganglia. To establish ICH model in vitro, oxyhemoglobin (OxyHb; 20 μM) and neurons were cultured for 6 h at 37 °C, 5% CO2 atmosphere. To investigate the role of WNK3 and the WNK3/SPAK/NKCC1 signaling pathway in SBI, after genetic interventions, rotation and water maze test, brain edema and neuroinflammation were detected, and terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL), Fluoro-Jade C (FJC), and Nissl staining were performed. RESULTS Our data showed that WNK3 expression in brain tissue were upregulated after ICH induction. In addition, silencing of WNK3 reduced neuronal apoptosis, and inflammatory responses in rats that underwent ICH. Inhibition of WNK3 expression reduced the damaged blood-brain barrier (BBB), alleviated the impaired degree of cerebral edema, and improved disruptive neurobehavioral cognition caused by ICH. Moreover, overexpression of WNK3 had the opposite effects. Finally, WNK3/SPAK/NKCC1 signaling pathway may be involved in the above-mentioned processes. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, our findings showed that WNK3 and WNK3/SPAK/NKCC1 signaling pathway play a vital biological function in ICH-induced SBI. Depletion of WNK3 attenuated brain injury after ICH both in vivo and in vitro. Thus, WNK3 and WNK3/SPAK/NKCC1 signaling pathway are potential targets for treating SBI after ICH.

[PMID: 32295146 PMCID: PMC7215307 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21082709] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2020] [Revised: 04/10/2020] [Accepted: 04/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a complex and potentially deadly disease. Neurosurgical clipping or endovascular coiling can successfully obliterate ruptured aneurysms in almost every case. However, despite successful interventions, the clinical outcomes of aSAH patients are often poor. The reasons for poor outcomes are numerous, including cerebral vasospasm (CVS), post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus, systemic infections and delayed cerebral ischemia. Although CVS with subsequent cerebral ischemia is one of the main contributors to brain damage after aSAH, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms of brain damage. This review emphasizes the importance of pharmacological interventions targeting high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1)-mediated brain damage after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and CVS. We searched Pubmed, Ovid medline and Scopus for "subarachnoid hemorrhage" in combination with "HMGB1". Based on these criteria, a total of 31 articles were retrieved. After excluding duplicates and selecting the relevant references from the retrieved articles, eight publications were selected for the review of the pharmacological interventions targeting HMGB1 in SAH. Damaged central nervous system cells release damage-associated molecular pattern molecules (DAMPs) that are important for initiating, driving and sustaining the inflammatory response following an aSAH. The discussed evidence suggested that HMGB1, an important DAMP, contributes to brain damage during early brain injury and also to the development of CVS during the late phase. Different pharmacological interventions employing natural compounds with HMGB1-antagonizing activity, antibody targeting of HMGB1 or scavenging HMGB1 by soluble receptors for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE), have been shown to dampen the inflammation mediated brain damage and protect against CVS. The experimental data suggest that HMGB1 inhibition is a promising strategy to reduce aSAH-related brain damage and CVS. Clinical studies are needed to validate these findings that may lead to the development of potential treatment options that are much needed in aSAH.

Abstract
In 1994, the “danger model” argued that adaptive immune responses are driven rather by molecules released upon tissue damage than by the recognition of “strange” molecules. Thus, an alternative to the “self versus non-self recognition model” has been provided. The model, which suggests that the immune system discriminates dangerous from safe molecules, has established the basis for the future designation of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), a term that was coined by Walter G. Land, Seong, and Matzinger. The pathological importance of DAMPs is barely somewhere else evident as in the posttraumatic or post-surgical inflammation and regeneration. Since DAMPs have been identified to trigger specific immune responses and inflammation, which is not necessarily detrimental but also regenerative, it still remains difficult to describe their “friend or foe” role in the posttraumatic immunogenicity and healing process. DAMPs can be used as biomarkers to indicate and/or to monitor a disease or injury severity, but they also may serve as clinically applicable parameters for optimized indication of the timing for, i.e., secondary surgeries. While experimental studies allow the detection of these biomarkers on different levels including cellular, tissue, and circulatory milieu, this is not always easily transferable to the human situation. Thus, in this review, we focus on the recent literature dealing with the pathophysiological importance of DAMPs after traumatic injury. Since dysregulated inflammation in traumatized patients always implies disturbed resolution of inflammation, so-called model of suppressing/inhibiting inducible DAMPs (SAMPs) will be very briefly introduced. Thus, an update on this topic in the field of trauma will be provided.

Abstract
The Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE) is expressed by multiple cell types in the brain and spinal cord that are linked to the pathogenesis of neurovascular and neurodegenerative disorders, including neurons, glia (microglia and astrocytes) and vascular cells (endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells and pericytes). Mounting structural and functional evidence implicates the interaction of the RAGE cytoplasmic domain with the formin, Diaphanous1 (DIAPH1), as the key cytoplasmic hub for RAGE ligand-mediated activation of cellular signaling. In aging and diabetes, the ligands of the receptor abound, both in the central nervous system (CNS) and in the periphery. Such accumulation of RAGE ligands triggers multiple downstream events, including upregulation of RAGE itself. Once set in motion, cell intrinsic and cell-cell communication mechanisms, at least in part via RAGE, trigger dysfunction in the CNS. A key outcome of endothelial dysfunction is reduction in cerebral blood flow and increased permeability of the blood brain barrier, conditions that facilitate entry of activated leukocytes into the CNS, thereby amplifying primary nodes of CNS cellular stress. This contribution details a review of the ligands of RAGE, the mechanisms and consequences of RAGE signal transduction, and cites multiple examples of published work in which RAGE contributes to the pathogenesis of neurovascular perturbation. Insights into potential therapeutic modalities targeting the RAGE signal transduction axis for disorders of CNS vascular dysfunction and neurodegeneration are also discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE High-Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) promotes vascular injuries induced by limb Ischemia and Reperfusion (IR), but the molecular mechanisms are not well understood. This study aimed to investigate the role of Receptor for Advanced-Glycation End products (RAGE) in HMGB1-regulated inflammatory response and vascular injury in limb IR using the rat IR and cellular Hypoxia and Reoxygenation (HR) models. METHODS We analyzed the vascular structure and elastic fiber deposition in rat femoral arteries by histological staining. We determined gene expression in vascular tissues and cells by quantitative RT-PCR, Western blotting and immunofluorescence; analyzed the protein levels in rat serum or cell supernatant by ELISA; and assessed protein interaction by co-immunoprecipitation. We used CCK-8 for analyzing cell viability, and assessed apoptosis by Hoechst staining and flow cytometry. RESULTS RAGE inhibition by FPS-ZM1 significantly repressed rat vascular injury that was induced by limb IR treatment. HMGB1 and RAGE expression, P38, ERK1/2, P65 and IKBa phosphorylation, as well as HIF-1a, NLRP3, Caspase-1, TNF-a and IL-6 expression and P65 in nucleus, increased in femoral arteries of a rat IR model and HUVEC undergoing HR treatment, whereas all the factors except HMGB1 and RAGE were inhibited by FPS-ZM1 treatment. In addition, we found that HMGB1 binds with RAGE in HUVEC undergoing HR treatment, which was suppressed by FPS-ZM1. Finally, the apoptosis of HUVEC also increased by HR treatment, but repressed under FPS-ZM1 treatment. CONCLUSION HMGB1 binds with RAGE to promote vascular inflammation and endothelial cell apoptosis, which mediates vascular injury during acute limb IR.

HGMB1 and RAGE as Essential Components of Ti Osseointegration Process in Mice. Front Immunol 2019; 10:709.

Abstract
The release of the prototypic DAMP High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) into extracellular environment and its binding to the Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE) has been described to trigger sterile inflammation and regulate healing outcome. However, their role on host response to Ti-based biomaterials and in the subsequent osseointegration remains unexplored. In this study, HMGB1 and RAGE inhibition in the Ti-mediated osseointegration were investigated in C57Bl/6 mice. C57Bl/6 mice received a Ti-device implantation (Ti-screw in the edentulous alveolar crest and a Ti-disc in the subcutaneous tissue) and were evaluated by microscopic (microCT [bone] and histology [bone and subcutaneous]) and molecular methods (ELISA, PCR array) during 3, 7, 14, and 21 days. Mice were divided into 4 groups: Control (no treatment); GZA (IP injection of Glycyrrhizic Acid for HMGB1 inhibition, 4 mg/Kg/day); RAP (IP injection of RAGE Antagonistic Peptide, 4 mg/Kg/day), and vehicle controls (1.5% DMSO solution for GZA and 0.9% saline solution for RAP); treatments were given at all experimental time points, starting 1 day before surgeries. HMGB1 was detected in the Ti-implantation sites, adsorbed to the screws/discs. In Control and vehicle groups, osseointegration was characterized by a slight inflammatory response at early time points, followed by a gradual bone apposition and matrix maturation at late time points. The inhibition of HMGB1 or RAGE impaired the osseointegration, affecting the dynamics of mineralized and organic bone matrix, and resulting in a foreign body reaction, with persistence of macrophages, necrotic bone, and foreign body giant cells until later time points. While Control samples were characterized by a balance between M1 and M2-type response in bone and subcutaneous sites of implantation, and also MSC markers, the inhibition of HMGB1 or RAGE caused a higher expression M1 markers and pro-inflammatory cytokines, as well chemokines and receptors for macrophage migration until later time points. In conclusion, HMGB1 and RAGE have a marked role in the osseointegration, evidenced by their influence on host inflammatory immune response, which includes macrophages migration and M1/M2 response, MSC markers expression, which collectively modulate bone matrix deposition and osseointegration outcome.

Abstract
Sodium/hydrogen exchanger 1 (NHE1) plays an essential role in maintaining intracellular pH (pHi) homeostasis in the central nervous system (CNS) under physiological conditions, and it is also associated with neuronal death and intracellular Na+ and Ca2+ overload induced by cerebral ischemia. However, its roles and underlying mechanisms in early brain injury (EBI) induced by subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) have not been fully explored. In this research, a SAH model in adult male rat was established through injecting autologous arterial blood into prechiasmatic cistern. Meanwhile, primary cultured cortical neurons of rat treated with 5 μM oxygen hemoglobin (OxyHb) for 24 h were applied to mimic SAH in vitro. We find that the protein levels of NHE1 are significantly increased in brain tissues of rats after SAH. Downregulation of NHE1 by HOE642 (a specific chemical inhibitor of NHE1) and genetic-knockdown can effectively alleviate behavioral and cognitive dysfunction, brain edema, blood-brain barrier (BBB) injury, inflammatory reactions, oxidative stress, neurondegeneration, and neuronal apoptosis, all of which are involved in EBI following SAH. However, upregulation of NHE1 by genetic-overexpression can produce opposite effects. Additionally, inhibiting NHE1 significantly attenuates OxyHb-induced neuronal apoptosis in vitro and reduces interaction of NHE1 and CHP1 both in vivo and in vitro. Collectively, we can conclude that NHE1 participates in EBI induced by SAH through mediating inflammation, oxidative stress, behavioral and cognitive dysfunction, BBB injury, brain edema, and promoting neuronal degeneration and apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating cerebrovascular disease that leads to poor outcomes. Neurogenesis, an essential recovery mechanism after brain injury, has not been fully elucidated after SAH. METHODS A total of 122 SD rats were used in this study. For experiment one, the rats were randomly divided into six groups: sham and SAH with different time points (1,3,5,7,14 days) (n = 12/group). An endovascular perforation method was conducted for SAH model. Rats were injected with 5-Bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU, 50 mg/kg) 24 h before euthanasia at different time points after SAH. The BrdU labeled cells were detected by immunohistochemistry; Doublecortin (DCX) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were measured by western blot and immunohistochemistry. For experiment two, rats were randomly divided into five groups: sham and SAH with different time points (1, 2, 4, 8 weeks) (n = 6/group). Rats received BrdU (50 mg/kg) once daily for 7 days after the induction of SAH. Double immunofluorescence staining was used to verify proliferation, differentiation and migration of progenitor cells. Rotarod test and water maze used to test the neurobehavioral recovery. RESULTS Our results showed that BrdU positive cells in hippocampus changed overtime after SAH. BrdU positive cells decreased as early as 1 day reaching lowest levels at 3 days after SAH, after which it gradually recovered. Similar change patterns were observed with DCX, which was reversed with GFAP. In addition, BrdU did not co-localize with cleaved caspase-3. The BrdU positive cells mainly differentiated into immature neurons for short-term fate, whereas they differentiated into mature neurons for long-term fate but not astrocytes, which facilitated neurobehavioral recovery after SAH. CONCLUSION Neurogenesis in the hippocampus changes overtime after SAH. The neuronal progenitor cells may play an essential role in the neurobehavioral recovery after brain injury induced by SAH, since short-term progenitors helped with the recovery of immature neurons in the hippocampus, whereas long-term progenitors differentiated into mature neurons.

Abstract
High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is one of the most abundant proteins in eukaryotes and the best characterized damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP). The biological activities of HMGB1 depend on its subcellular location, context and post-translational modifications. Inside the nucleus, HMGB1 is engaged in many DNA events such as DNA repair, transcription regulation and genome stability; in the cytoplasm, its main function is to regulate the autophagic flux while in the extracellular environment, it possesses more complicated functions and it is involved in a large variety of different processes such as inflammation, migration, invasion, proliferation, differentiation and tissue regeneration. Due to this pleiotropy, the role of HMGB1 has been vastly investigated in various pathological diseases and a large number of studies have explored its function in cardiovascular pathologies. However, in this contest, the precise mechanism of action of HMGB1 and its therapeutic potential are still very controversial since is debated whether HMGB1 is involved in tissue damage or plays a role in tissue repair and regeneration. The main focus of this review is to provide an overview of the effects of HMGB1 in different ischemic heart diseases and to discuss its functions in these pathological conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The exosomal miRNAs have been emerged as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for various diseases, however, the function of exosomal miRNAs in stroke remains largely unknown. METHODS The blood samples from acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients and normal controls were collected. The exosomes were isolated from the blood samples, which were confirmed by electron microscopy and western blot with the specific exosomes biomarker CD9, CD63 and Tsg101. RESULTS RT-qPCR analysis showed that exosomal miR-134 was significantly increased in AIS patients within 24 h after stroke onset compared with that of control group. Highly expressed exosomal miR-134 was correlated with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, infarct volume and positively associated with the worse prognosis of the stroke patients. Additionally, the exosomal miR-134 was strong positively correlated with the expression of serum interleukin 6 (IL-6) and plasma high-sensitivity C relative protein (hs-CRP). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve suggested that miR-134 might be a potential factor to discriminate AIS patients from non-stroke controls. CONCLUSIONS The exosomal miR-134 as a possible novel biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of stroke.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a life-threatening cerebrovascular disease that usually has a poor prognosis. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) have been implicated in the mechanisms of SAH-associated damage, including increased inflammation and reduced neurogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of HSP90 inhibition on inflammation and neurogenesis in a mouse model of experimental SAH induced by endovascular surgery. Western blotting showed HSP90 levels to be decreased, while neurogenesis, evaluated by 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) immunohistochemistry, was decreased in the hippocampuses of SAH mice. SAH also induced pro-inflammatory factors such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β), capase-1 and the NLRP3 inflammasome. However, intraperitoneal administration of the specific HSP90 inhibitor 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG) reduced the levels of HSP90, NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1 and IL-1β, while increasing the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and doublecortin (DCX), as well as the number of BrdU-positive cells in SAH mice. In addition, 17-AGG improved short- and long-term neurobehavioral outcomes. The neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of 17-AGG were reversed by recombinant HSP90 (rHSP90); this detrimental effect of HSP90 was inhibited by the specific P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) inhibitor A438079, indicating that SAH-induced inflammation and inhibition of neurogenesis were likely mediated by HSP90 and the P2X7R/NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. HSP90 inhibition by 17-AAG may be a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of SAH.

Abstract
The occurrence and development of acute cerebrovascular diseases involves an inflammatory response, and high mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) is a pro-inflammatory factor that is expressed not only in the early-injury stage of disease, but also during the post-repair process. In the initial stage of disease, HMGB1 is released into the outside of the cell to participate in the cascade amplification reaction of inflammation, causing vasospasm, destruction of the blood-brain barrier and apoptosis of nerve cells. In the recovery stage of disease, HMGB1 can promote tissue repair and remodeling, which can aid in nerve function recovery. This review summarizes the biological characteristics of HMGB1, and the role of HMGB1 in ischemic and hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease, and cerebral venous thrombosis.

Abstract
High mobility group protein box 1 (HMGB1), a sophisticated danger signal with pleiotropic functions, has been proved to function as a pro-inflammatory cytokine. In the central neural system (CNS), HMGB1 can stimulate microglia, the immune cell in the CNS, to release inflammatory factors and to cause chronic neurodegeneration. The evidence showed that HMGB1 can act as a pro-inflammatory cytokine mainly through its receptors like advanced glycation end product (RAGE), Toll-like 4 (TLR4), and so on. Moreover, HMGB1 contributed to the priming effects of stress-pretreatment and played a key role in neurodegeneration diseases via mediating neuroinflammation. However, the evidence also showed that HMGB1 played a role in tissue repair, with the ability to promote cell migration and proliferation, to induce the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and to regenerate spinal cord. These pleiotropic functions of HMGB1 make it possible to play a role from cell death to new life. Depression is a chronic, severe, and often life-threatening disease accompanied with impaired neurogenesis. The evidence showed that neuroinflammation played a key role in the process of depression. Depressive patients often showed a high expression of inflammatory cytokines in the blood and an activation of microglia in the brain. Meanwhile, they also showed a neuron deficit in the brain. Though they lack direct evidence linking HMGB1 with depression, the ability of HMGB1 that can function from neuroinflammation to tissue repair makes HMGB1 a promising therapeutic target of depression.
