Abstract
Introduction Adversities during the perinatal period can decrease oxygen supply to the fetal brain, leading to various hypoxic brain injuries, which can compromise the regularity of brain development in different aspects. To examine the catecholaminergic contribution to the link between an early-life hypoxic insult and adolescent behavioral aberrations, we used a previously established rat model of perinatal hypoxia but altered the hypobaric to normobaric conditions. Methods Exploratory and social behavior and learning abilities were tested in 70 rats of both sexes at adolescent age. Inherent vertical locomotion, sensory-motor functions and spatial learning abilities were explored in a subset of animals to clarify the background of altered exploratory behavior. Finally, the concentrations of dopamine (DA) and noradrenaline in midbrain and pons, and the relative expression of genes for DA receptors D1 and D2, and their down-stream targets (DA- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein, Mr 32 kDa, the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A, and inhibitor-5 of protein phosphatase 1) in the hippocampus and thalamus were investigated in 31 rats. Results A lesser extent of alterations in exploratory and cognitive aspects of behavior in the present study suggests that normobaric conditions mitigate the hypoxic injury compared to the one obtained under hypobaric conditions. Increased exploratory rearing was the most prominent consequence, with impaired spatial learning in the background. In affected rats, increased midbrain/pons DA content, as well as mRNA levels for DA receptors and their down-stream elements in the thalamus, but not the hippocampus, were found. Conclusion We can conclude that a mild hypoxic event induced long-lasting disbalances in mesothalamic DA signaling, contributing to the observed behavioral alterations. The thalamus was thereby indicated as another structure, besides the well-established striatum, involved in mediating hypoxic effects on behavior through DA signaling.

[PMID: 35504663 PMCID: PMC10389761 DOI: 10.1124/jpet.122.001108] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2022] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
High doses of the partial agonist of the GABA B receptor, γ-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), causes respiratory depression that can lead to death. Previously, it has been shown that GABAB- receptor antagonism is able to prevent respiratory depression and sedation when inhibitors are pre-administered. In order to treat GHB overdoses, safety and efficacy of a treatment strategy at various times after GHB administration is necessary, in order to more closely replicate a true overdose situation. Preliminary studies developed an assay for SGS742 and determined its pharmacokinetics in rats. The effects of SGS742 on GHB-induced respiratory depression were evaluated when SGS742 administration was delayed 1 and 2 hours after intravenous or oral administration of GHB or γ-butyrolactone, a GHB prodrug. SGS742 reversed GHB-induced respiratory depression in a dose-dependent manner at both time points tested, with no effects on its toxicokinetics. However, some of the dosing paradigms resulted in toxicity in the form of tremors, seizures or abnormal movements. The tremors/seizures occurred in a manner that was dependent on both the dose and timing of SGS742 administration, and were not altered with pretreatment with gabazine, a GABAA receptor inhibitor, and only partially reduced with pretreatment with NCS382, a selective GHB receptor antagonist. Additional studies with a second GABAB antagonist SCH50911 demonstrated similar effects, producing reversal of respiratory depression but producing tremors and abnormal movements. Further studies are necessary in order to identify the potential use of GABAB antagonism as a treatment strategy for GHB overdoses. Significance Statement There is no current treatment for overdoses of the drug of abuse γ-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB). Since the toxicodynamic effects of GHB, including respiratory depression and lethality, are mediated through GABAB receptor agonism, GABAB receptor antagonists may represent a therapeutic strategy to treat overdoses. This study demonstrates that while GABAB receptor antagonists are effective as a pretreatment, they are less effective when administered at times after GHB administration and their administration is also associated with time- and dose-associated toxicity.

Pharmacological inhibition of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase by olaparib, prevents acute lung injury associated cognitive deficits potentially through suppression of inflammatory response. Eur J Pharmacol 2020; 877:173091. [PMID: 32234526 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2020.173091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2019] [Revised: 03/12/2020] [Accepted: 03/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) has been reported to be associated with high mortality rate. Moreover, ALI survivors, frequently present chronic cognitive deterioration. We have previously shown that 'two hit' (hydrochloric acid + lipopolysaccharide) induced ALI resulted in cognitive dysfunction through the induction of systemic inflammation. The present study was designed to explore the potential anti-inflammatory effects of olaparib (Poly ADP-ribose polymerase-1 inhibitor), on ALI mediated cognitive impairment. Olaparib was administered at dose of 5 mg/kg body weight (i.p.) 30 min before each hit. Data show that olaparib pre-treatment markedly reduced the neutrophil infiltration, alveolar capillary damage, inflammatory cytokines level (TNF-α/IL-1β/IL-6) and oxidative stress in the lungs at 24 h after ALI induction. Also, olaparib pre-treatment ameliorated the ALI associated cognitive impairment as assessed by Morris water maze test on weekly basis for 2 consecutive weeks. Further, restoration of cognitive function was associated with normalization of serum levels of TNF-α/IL-1β and improved the blood brain barrier (BBB) function, as reflected by data on expression of occludin/claudin-5 and extravasation of Evans-blue/FITC dextran in hippocampus at 1 week post injury. Finally, increased mRNA expression of VCAM-1, TNF-α and IL-1β and NF-κB activation in hippocampus indicate induction of neuro-inflammation, which was downregulated upon olaparib administration. Further, olaparib treatment 1 week after ALI induction blunted the systemic inflammation which was associated with improved BBB and cognitive function. Altogether, our results showed that olaparib protects against ALI and associated cognitive deficits in mice, and thus may offer a new treatment avenue in the area.

Two hit induced acute lung injury impairs cognitive function in mice: A potential model to study cross talk between lung and brain. Brain Behav Immun 2018; 73:633-642.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI), a pulmonary inflammatory disorder, is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Interestingly, ALI survivors have been reported for some neurocognitive deterioration at/after discharge. However, the molecular factors behind such extra pulmonary manifestation are not clearly known. The present work was designed to investigate lung-brain cross talk in experimental mice for deciphering primary molecular factors that may be involved in ALI-mediated cognitive impairment. ALI was induced in Balb/c mice by intra-tracheal administration of either 0.1 N HCl (2 ml/kg) or LPS (1 mg/kg) as single hits or both agents were administered successively to mimic the 'two hit' model. Interestingly two hit-mediated ALI resulted in exaggerated inflammatory response as reflected by increased pulmonary neutrophils and inflammatory factors (TNF-α/IL-1β/IL-6). Additionally, two hits resulted in delayed resolution of lung inflammation and was coupled with persistent decline in memory, as assessed by Morris water maze test. Further, two hits elevate serum levels of TNF-α/IL-1β which was associated with compromised blood brain barrier (BBB), as evident by decreased expression of occludin/claudin-5 and consequent Evans-blue extravasation in hippocampus 1 week post injury. Finally, dexamethasone protects against the two hit mediated cognitive impairment by lowering the pro-inflammatory factors (TNF-α/IL-1β) both in lungs and blood. Overall, we report for the first time that 'two hit' mediated ALI cause persistent cognitive impairment in mice partly via up-regulating systemic expression of TNF-α/IL-1β that may disrupt BBB and hence the model may be a useful tool to examine the lung-brain cross-talk at the molecular level for exploring newer therapeutics.

Abstract
Deep sedation during stay in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) may have deleterious effects upon the clinical and cognitive outcomes of critically ill patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. Over the last decade a vast body of literature has been generated regarding different sedation strategies, with the aim of reducing the levels of sedation in critically ill patients. There has also been a growing interest in acute brain dysfunction, or delirium, in the ICU. However, the effect of sedation during ICU stay upon long-term cognitive deficits in ICU survivors remains unclear. Strategies for reducing sedation levels in the ICU do not seem to be associated with worse cognitive and psychological status among ICU survivors. Sedation strategy and management efforts therefore should seek to secure the best possible state in the mechanically ventilated patient and lower the prevalence of delirium, in order to prevent long-term cognitive alterations.

Abstract
Glutamate (Glu) quantification has been performed by a combination of intracerebral microdialysis through which the samples are obtained and analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC); its measurement requires a large expenditure of time (15-30 min per sample) and special training. Therefore, an alternative method is presented here, based on the electrochemiluminescence produced by the use of an enzymatic reactor, containing glutamate-oxidase, mixed and incubated with microdialysate from dorsal striatum (DS) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) of young rats asphyxiated during the neonatal period, under a global asphyxia model in order to test this method. Using this approach, we found high extracellular Glu concentration in the DS of asphyxiated animals, but only during K+ stimulation, while in the PFC, only a delay in the rise of Glu after K+ stimulation was observed, without any difference in extracellular Glu content when compared with controls. This new method permitted a fast measurement of Glu in brain dialysate samples, it significantly reduces the cost of the analysis per sample, since only a single device and pump are needed without using columns and high pressure inside the system or complex hardware and software to control pumps, detector, fraction collector or any other peripheral used in HPLC.

Abstract
Measurement of neurotransmitters during normal or altered function in cerebral slices could be an important tool to better understand the relationship between biochemical changes and electrophysiological activity. Some attempts of this analysis have been made; however, the current techniques do not have the appropriate time resolution to establish this relationship. The use of electrochemical biosensors has allowed for good time resolution, but problems related to the reduction of signal noise and biofouling of the electrode surface could be an important issue. In this work, we propose a new alternative to simultaneously measure glutamate and electrical activity with a high temporal resolution in brain slices. This approach is based on the use of enzymatic reactors that generate a fluorescent derivative from glutamate that can be measured at high temporal resolution. The results presented here show a reliable measurement of this neurotransmitter in brain slices obtained from intact animals under the effect of a glutamate transporter blocker DL-threo-beta-benzyloxyaspartate as well as the potassium channel blocker 4-aminopyridine. Differences in the levels of glutamate and high frequency and amplitude discharges as an effect of drug administration were found in brain slices obtained from epileptic rats (p<0.05). In conclusion, this method could be used to measure neurotransmitter concentration online at a near physiological temporal resolution, which can then be correlated to the electrical activity that is simultaneously recorded.

Abstract
Background One of the most important manifestations of perinatal asphyxia is the occurrence of seizures, which are treated with antiepileptic drugs, such as carbamazepine. These early seizures, combined with pharmacological treatments, may influence the development of dopaminergic neurotransmission in the frontal cortex. This study aimed to determine the extracellular levels of dopamine and its main metabolite DOPAC in 30-day-old rats that had been asphyxiated for 45 min in a low (8%) oxygen chamber at a perinatal age and treated with daily doses of carbamazepine. Quantifications were performed using microdialysis coupled to a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system in basal conditions and following the use of the chemical stimulus. Results Significant decreases in basal and stimulated extracellular dopamine and DOPAC content were observed in the frontal cortex of the asphyxiated group, and these decreases were partially recovered in the animals administered daily doses of carbamazepine. Greater basal dopamine concentrations were also observed as an independent effect of carbamazepine. Conclusions Perinatal asphyxia plus carbamazepine affects extracellular levels of dopamine and DOPAC in the frontal cortex and stimulated the release of dopamine, which provides evidence for the altered availability of dopamine in cortical brain areas during brain development.

Abstract
Amperometric sensors for oxygen and glucose allow for real time recording from the brain in freely-moving animals. These sensors have been used to detect activity- and drug-induced changes in metabolism in a number of brain regions but little attention has been given over to the hippocampus despite its importance in cognition and disease. Sensors for oxygen and glucose were co-implanted into the hippocampus and allowed to record for several days. Baseline recordings show that basal concentrations of hippocampal oxygen and glucose are 100.26±5.76 μM and 0.60±0.06 mM respectively. Furthermore, stress-induced changes in neural activity have been shown to significantly alter concentrations of both analytes in the hippocampus. Administration of O2 gas to the animals' snouts results in significant increases in hippocampal oxygen and glucose and administration of N2 gas results in a significant decrease in hippocampal oxygen. Chloral hydrate-induced anaesthesia causes a significant increase in hippocampal oxygen whereas treatment with the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor acetazolamide significantly increases hippocampal oxygen and glucose. These findings provide real time electrochemical data for the hippocampus which has been previously impossible with traditional methods such as microdialysis or ex vivo analysis. As such, these sensors provide a window into hippocampal function which can be used in conjunction with behavioural and pharmacological interventions to further elucidate the functions and mechanisms of action of the hippocampus in normal and disease states.
