Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapeutic hypothermia has shown potential in cardiac intervention for years; however, its adoption into the neurovascular space has been limited. Studies have pointed to slow cooling and limited depth of hypothermia yielding negative outcomes. Here we present an insulated catheter that allows for consistent infusion of chilled saline directly to the brain. Direct delivery of cold saline allows a faster depth of hypothermia, which could have a benefit to the growth of ischemic lesions. METHODS Ten canines were randomized to either receive selective brain cooling or no additional therapy. Eight animals were successfully enrolled (n = 4 per group). Each animal underwent a temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for a total of 45 min. Five minutes prior to flow restoration, chilled saline was injected through the ipsilateral internal carotid artery using an insulated catheter to ensure delivery temperature. The treatment continued for 20 min, after which the animal was transferred to an MRI scanner for imaging. RESULTS Of the 8 animals that were successfully enrolled in the study, 3 were able to survive to the 30-day endpoint with no differences between the cooled and control animals. There was no difference in the initial mean infarct size between the groups; however, animals that did not receive cooling had infarcts continuing to progress more rapidly after the MCAO was removed (13.8% vs 161.3%, p = 0.016, cooled vs control). CONCLUSIONS Selective hypothermia was able to reduce the post-MCAO infarct progression in a canine model of temporary MCAO.

SENP3-mediated deSUMOylation of c-Jun facilitates microglia-induced neuroinflammation after cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury. iScience 2023; 26:106953. [PMID: 37332598 PMCID: PMC10272502 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2023.106953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Revised: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Recent evidences have implicated that SENP3 is a deSUMOylase which possesses neuronal damage effects in cerebral ischemia. However, its role in microglia remains poorly understood. Here, we found that SENP3 was upregulated in the peri-infarct areas of mice following ischemic stroke. Furthermore, knockdown of SENP3 significantly inhibits the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines in microglial cells. Mechanistically, SENP3 can bind and then mediated the deSUMOylation of c-Jun, which activated its transcriptional activity, ultimately followed by the activation of MAPK/AP-1 signaling pathway. In addition, microglia-specific SENP3 knockdown alleviated ischemia-induced neuronal damage, and markedly diminished infract volume, ameliorated sensorimotor and cognitive function in animals subjected to ischemic stroke. These results indicated SENP3 functions as a novel regulator of microglia-induced neuroinflammation by activating the MAPK/AP-1 signaling pathway via mediating the deSUMOylation of c-Jun. Interventions of SENP3 expression or its interaction with c-Jun would be a new and promising therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke.

Abstract
SUMOylation is described as a posttranslational protein modification (PTM) that is involved in the pathophysiological processes underlying several conditions related to ischemia- and reperfusion-induced damage. Increasing evidence suggests that, under low oxygen levels, SUMOylation might be part of an endogenous mechanism, which is triggered by injury to protect cells within the central nervous system. However, the role of ischemia-induced SUMOylation in the periphery is still unclear. This article summarizes the results of recent studies regarding SUMOylation profiles in several diseases characterized by impaired blood flow to the cardiorenal, gastrointestinal, and respiratory systems. Our review shows that although ischemic injury per se does not always increase SUMOylation levels, as seen in strokes, it seems that in most cases the positive modulation of protein SUMOylation after peripheral ischemia might be a protective mechanism. This complex relationship warrants further investigation, as the role of SUMOylation during hypoxic conditions differs from organ to organ and is still not fully elucidated.
