Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a subtype of stroke with the highest fatality and disability rate. Up to now, commonly used first-line therapies have limited value in improving prognosis. Angiogenesis is essential to neurological recovery after ICH. Recent studies have shown that microRNA-451(miR-451) plays an important role in angiogenesis by regulating the function of vascular endothelial cells. We found miR-451 was significantly decreased in the peripheral blood of ICH patients in the acute stage. Based on the clinical findings, we conducted this study to investigate the potential regulatory effect of miR-451 on angiogenesis after ICH. The expression of miR-451 in ICH mouse model and in a hemin toxicity model of human brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMECs) was decreased the same as in ICH patients. MiR-451 negatively regulated the proliferation, migration, and tube formation of hBMECs in vitro. MiR-451 negatively regulated the microvessel density in the perihematoma tissue and affected neural functional recovery of ICH mouse model. Knockdown of miR-451 could recovered tight junction and protect the integrity of blood-brain barrier after ICH. Based on bioinformatic programs, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) was predicted to be the target gene and identified to be regulated by miR-451 inhibiting the protein translation. And p-AKT and p-ERK were verified to be downstream of MIF in angiogenesis. These results all suggest that miR-451 will be a potential target for regulating angiogenesis in ICH.

Abstract
In the central nervous system (CNS), the myelin sheath ensures efficient interconnection between neurons and contributes to the regulation of the proper function of neuronal networks. The maintenance of myelin and the well-organized subtle process of myelin plasticity requires cooperation among myelin-forming cells, glial cells, and neural networks. The process of cooperation is fragile, and the balance is highly susceptible to disruption by microenvironment influences. Reactive microglia play a critical and complicated role in the demyelination and remyelination process. Recent studies have shown that the voltage-gated proton channel Hv1 is selectively expressed in microglia in CNS, which regulates intracellular pH and is involved in the production of reactive oxygen species, underlying multifaceted roles in maintaining microglia function. This paper begins by examining the molecular mechanisms of demyelination and emphasizes the crucial role of the microenvironment in demyelination. It focuses specifically on the role of Hv1 in myelin repair and its therapeutic potential in CNS demyelinating diseases.

Reconstructing the somatotopic organization of the corticospinal tract remains a challenge for modern tractography methods. Hum Brain Mapp 2023; 44:6055-6073. [PMID: 37792280 PMCID: PMC10619402 DOI: 10.1002/hbm.26497] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 09/09/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The corticospinal tract (CST) is a critically important white matter fiber tract in the human brain that enables control of voluntary movements of the body. The CST exhibits a somatotopic organization, which means that the motor neurons that control specific body parts are arranged in order within the CST. Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tractography is increasingly used to study the anatomy of the CST. However, despite many advances in tractography algorithms over the past decade, modern, state-of-the-art methods still face challenges. In this study, we compare the performance of six widely used tractography methods for reconstructing the CST and its somatotopic organization. These methods include constrained spherical deconvolution (CSD) based probabilistic (iFOD1) and deterministic (SD-Stream) methods, unscented Kalman filter (UKF) tractography methods including multi-fiber (UKF2T) and single-fiber (UKF1T) models, the generalized q-sampling imaging (GQI) based deterministic tractography method, and the TractSeg method. We investigate CST somatotopy by dividing the CST into four subdivisions per hemisphere that originate in the leg, trunk, hand, and face areas of the primary motor cortex. A quantitative and visual comparison is performed using diffusion MRI data (N = 100 subjects) from the Human Connectome Project. Quantitative evaluations include the reconstruction rate of the eight anatomical subdivisions, the percentage of streamlines in each subdivision, and the coverage of the white matter-gray matter (WM-GM) interface. CST somatotopy is further evaluated by comparing the percentage of streamlines in each subdivision to the cortical volumes for the leg, trunk, hand, and face areas. Overall, UKF2T has the highest reconstruction rate and cortical coverage. It is the only method with a significant positive correlation between the percentage of streamlines in each subdivision and the volume of the corresponding motor cortex. However, our experimental results show that all compared tractography methods are biased toward generating many trunk streamlines (ranging from 35.10% to 71.66% of total streamlines across methods). Furthermore, the coverage of the WM-GM interface in the largest motor area (face) is generally low (under 40%) for all compared tractography methods. Different tractography methods give conflicting results regarding the percentage of streamlines in each subdivision and the volume of the corresponding motor cortex, indicating that there is generally no clear relationship, and that reconstruction of CST somatotopy is still a large challenge. Overall, we conclude that while current tractography methods have made progress toward the well-known challenge of improving the reconstruction of the lateral projections of the CST, the overall problem of performing a comprehensive CST reconstruction, including clinically important projections in the lateral (hand and face areas) and medial portions (leg area), remains an important challenge for diffusion MRI tractography.
