Zhao Z, Xie L, Shi J, Liu T, Wang S, Huang J, Wu D, Zhang X. Neuroprotective Effect of Zishen Huoxue Decoction treatment on Vascular Dementia by activating PINK1/Parkin mediated Mitophagy in the Hippocampal CA1 Region. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 319:117172. [PMID: 37709106 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/10/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Zishen Huoxue Decoction (ZSHXD) is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) prescription for the treatment of vascular dementia (VD). Although the clinical effects of ZSHXD have been demonstrated, the molecular mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective effects of ZSHXD remain unclear. AIM OF THE STUDY To explore whether the neuroprotective effect of Zishen Huoxue Decoction (ZSHXD) treatment is associated with the PINK1/Parkin pathway-mediated mitophagy in hippocampal CA1 region of 2-VO model rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-two male SD rats were randomly divided into the sham group, model group, Donepezil (0.45 mg/kg) group, ZSHXD low dose group (8.9 g/kg), ZSHXD medium dose group (17.8 g/kg), and ZSHXD high dose group (35.6 g/kg). Two-vessel occlusion (2-VO) rat model is established to evaluate the therapeutic effect of ZSHXD pretreatment. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining is conducted to detect the morphological changes of neurons and the number of normal neurons in the hippocampal CA1 region. Then, the mitochondrial function and structure were reflected by the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) levels and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Meanwhile, the expression of mitophagy related proteins mediated by PINK1/Parkin was detected by western blot (WB). After that, malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels were measured by Elisa. At last, the apoptosis-related proteins Caspase-3、Bax、Bcl-2 were measured by WB. RESULTS The results depict that ZSHXD has dose-dependently improved the cognitive function in 2-VO model rats. It has also been showed that ZSHXD can alleviate neuron damage, rescue the mitochondrial structural injury and dysfunction in hippocampal CA1 region. Besides, ZSHXD has increased the activity of SOD and decreased the activity of MDA. In addition, ZSHXD can inhibit apoptosis with Caspase-3, Bax decreasing and Bcl-2 increasing. Specially, the protection of ZSHXD showed in 2-VO model rats is along with the upregulation of PINK1, Parkin and LC3-Ⅱ/Ⅰ, and downregulation of p62 in the hippocampal CA1 region. CONCLUSIONS This study reveals that ZSHXD protects the 2-VO model rats from ischemic injury by activating the PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy in the hippocampal CA1 region.

Abstract
This review analyzes the role of TNF-α and its increase in biological fluids in mild cognitive impairment, and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The potential inhibition of TNF-α with pharmacological strategies paves the way for preventing AD and improving cognitive function in people at risk for dementia. We conducted a narrative review to characterize the evidence in relation to the involvement of TNF-α in AD and its possible therapeutic inhibition. Several studies report that patients with RA and systemic inflammatory diseases treated with TNF-α blocking agents reduce the probability of emerging dementia compared with the general population. Animal model studies also showed interesting results and are discussed. An increasing amount of basic scientific data and clinical studies underscore the importance of inflammatory processes and subsequent glial activation in the pathogenesis of AD. TNF-α targeted therapy is a biologically plausible approach for cognition preservation and further trials are necessary to investigate the potential benefits of therapy in populations at risk of developing AD.

Therapeutic Hypothermia after Cardiac Arrest Attenuates Hindlimb Paralysis and Damage of Spinal Motor Neurons and Astrocytes through Modulating Nrf2/HO-1 Signaling Pathway in Rats. Cells 2023; 12:cells12030414. [PMID: 36766758 PMCID: PMC9913309 DOI: 10.3390/cells12030414] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), a global ischemia and reperfusion event, lead to neuronal damage and/or death in the spinal cord as well as the brain. Hypothermic therapy is reported to protect neurons from damage and improve hindlimb paralysis after resuscitation in a rat model of CA induced by asphyxia. In this study, we investigated roles of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in the lumbar spinal cord protected by therapeutic hypothermia in a rat model of asphyxial CA. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to seven minutes of asphyxial CA (induced by injection of 2 mg/kg vecuronium bromide) and hypothermia (four hours of cooling, 33 ± 0.5 °C). Survival rate, hindlimb motor function, histopathology, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry were examined at 12, 24, and 48 h after CA/ROSC. The rats of the CA/ROSC and hypothermia-treated groups had an increased survival rate and showed an attenuated hindlimb paralysis and a mild damage/death of motor neurons located in the anterior horn of the lumbar spinal cord compared with those of the CA/ROSC and normothermia-treated groups. In the CA/ROSC and hypothermia-treated groups, expressions of cytoplasmic and nuclear Nrf2 and HO-1 were significantly higher in the anterior horn compared with those of the CA/ROSC and normothermia-treated groups, showing that cytoplasmic and nuclear Nrf2 was expressed in both motor neurons and astrocytes. Moreover, in the CA/ROSC and hypothermia-treated group, interleukin-1β (IL-1β, a pro-inflammatory cytokine) expressed in the motor neurons was significantly reduced, and astrocyte damage was apparently attenuated compared with those found in the CA/ROSC and normothermia group. Taken together, our results indicate that hypothermic therapy after CA/ROSC attenuates CA-induced hindlimb paralysis by protecting motor neurons in the lumbar spinal cord via activating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway and attenuating pro-inflammation and astrocyte damage (reactive astrogliosis).

Open Med (Wars) 2023; 18:20230680. [PMID: 37069938 PMCID: PMC10105551 DOI: 10.1515/med-2023-0680] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2022] [Revised: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 04/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Since tectorigenin has been reported to possess anti-inflammation, redox balance restoration, and anti-apoptosis properties, we determine to unravel whether tectorigenin has potential in alleviating spinal cord injury (SCI). Herein, PC12 cells were induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish in vitro SCI models. The cell viability and apoptosis were detected through cell counting kit-8 and flow cytometry assays. The caspase-3/8/9 content was measured by colorimetric method. Western blot was conducted to quantify the expressions of cleaved caspse-3/8/9, IGFBP6, TLR4, IκBα, p-IκBα, RELA proto-oncogene, p65, and p-p65. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction were carried out to quantitate expressions of IGFBP6, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). SwissTargetPrediction and GSE21497 database were utilized to predict the potential therapeutic targets of tectorigenin. Comparison of IGFBP6 expression in SCI tissues and normal tissues was analyzed by GEO2R. Our study found that LPS induced the declined cell viability, elevated cell apoptosis, upregulation of caspase-3/8/9, cleaved caspase-3/8/9, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IGFBP6, and TLR4, and the activation of IκBα and p65 in PC12 cells. Tectorigenin reversed the above effects of LPS. IGFBP6 was predicted to be the potential therapeutic target of tectorigenin and was overexpressed in SCI tissues. Notably, IGFBP6 overexpression offset the effects of tectorigenin on PC12 cells. In conclusion, tectorigenin could alleviate the LPS-induced apoptosis, inflammation, and activation of NF-κB signaling in SCI cell models via inhibiting IGFBP6.

Abstract
Introduction Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most common ulcerative diseases affecting the general population. The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficiency of 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse prescribed along with the topical anesthetic gel and vitamin supplement over the topical anesthetic gel and vitamin supplement prescribed alone for treating RAS. Materials and Methods A total of 60 participants were randomly divided into two groups-experimental group: 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse prescribed along with vitamin supplement and topical anesthetic gel; and control group: vitamin supplement and topical anesthetic gel alone. The pain symptoms were evaluated using the VAS scores at baseline and first follow-up visits. The data were analyzed using Student's t test. Results A significant reduction in the pain scores was observed in participants using the 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse prescribed along with vitamin supplement and topical anesthetic gel on the first follow-up visit (P = < 0.001). Conclusion The 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse prescribed along with vitamin supplement and topical anesthetic gel had shown more reduction in the pain symptoms when compared to topical anesthetic gel and vitamin supplement prescribed alone for the treatment of RAS.

Abstract
Although multi-organ dysfunction is associated with the survival rate following cardiac arrest (CA), the majority of studies to date have focused on hearts and brains, and few studies have considered renal failure. The objective of the present study, therefore, was to examine the effects of therapeutic hypothermia on the survival rate, pathophysiology and antioxidant enzymes in rat kidneys following asphyxial CA. Rats were sacrificed one day following CA. The survival rate, which was estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis, was 42.9% one day following CA. However, hypothermia, which was induced following CA, significantly increased the survival rate (71.4%). In normothermia rats with CA, the serum blood urea nitrogen level was significantly increased one day post-CA. In addition, the serum creatinine level was significantly increased one day post-CA. However, in CA rats exposed to hypothermia, the levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine significantly decreased following CA. Histochemical staining revealed a significant temporal increase in renal injury after the normothermia group was subjected to CA. However, renal injury was significantly decreased in the hypothermia group. Immunohistochemical analysis of the kidney revealed a significant decrease in antioxidant enzymes (copper-zinc superoxide dismutase, manganese superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase) with time in the normothermia group. However, in the hypothermia group, these enzymes were significantly elevated following CA. Collectively, the results revealed that renal dysfunction following asphyxial CA was strongly associated with the early survival rate and therapeutic hypothermia reduced renal injury via effective antioxidant mechanisms.

Management Based on Multimodal Brain Monitoring May Improve Functional Connectivity and Post-operative Neurocognition in Elderly Patients Undergoing Spinal Surgery. Front Aging Neurosci 2021; 13:705287. [PMID: 34335234 PMCID: PMC8322980 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2021.705287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is a common condition in elderly patients undergoing surgery. Sedation, analgesia, regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2), and body temperature are known to be associated with PND, but few studies have examined the contribution of these factors combined in detail. This prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blinded study investigated whether anesthesia management based on multimodal brain monitoring—an anesthesia management algorithm designed by our group—could improve the post-operative cognitive function and brain functional connectivity (FC) in elderly patients undergoing elective spinal surgery with general anesthesia. The patients (aged ≥65 years) were randomized into two groups [control (Group C), n = 12 and intervention (Group I), n = 14]. Patients in Group I were managed with multimodal brain monitoring (patient state index, spectral edge frequency, analgesia nociception index, rSO2, and temperature), and those in Group C were managed with routine anesthesia management. All patients were pre- and post-operatively evaluated (7 days after surgery) with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) and FC were analyzed after resting-state functional MRI. Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and lipopolysaccharide levels were measured, and the correlation between FC and changes in inflammatory marker levels was analyzed. Mean post-operative MoCA score was higher in Group I (24.80 ± 2.09) than in Group C (22.56 ± 2.24) (p = 0.04), with no difference in PND incidence between groups (28.57 vs. 16.67%; p = 0.47). Group I also showed significantly increased ALFF values in several brain regions after surgery (p < 0.05), and FC between the left hippocampus and left orbital inferior frontal gyrus (FG), left middle FG, left superior temporal gyrus, and left precentral gyrus was enhanced (p < 0.05), which was negatively correlated with the change in serum CRP (pre vs. post-intervention) (R = −0.58, p = 0.01). These results suggest that management of elderly patients undergoing surgery by multimodal brain monitoring may improve post-operative neurocognition and FC by reducing systemic inflammation.

Trauma is a primary cause of death globally, with non‐compressible torso hemorrhage constituting an important part of “potentially survivable trauma death.” Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta has become a popular alternative to aortic cross‐clamping under emergent thoracotomy for non‐compressible torso hemorrhage in recent years, however, it alone does not improve the survival rate of patients with severe shock or traumatic cardiac arrest from non‐compressible torso hemorrhage. Development of novel advanced maneuvers is essential to improve these patients’ survival, and research on promising methods such as selective aortic arch perfusion and emergency preservation and resuscitation is ongoing. This review aimed to provide physicians in charge of severe trauma cases with a broad understanding of these novel therapeutic approaches to manage patients with severe hemorrhagic trauma, which may allow them to develop lifesaving strategies for exsanguinating trauma patients. Although there are still hurdles to overcome before their clinical application, promising research on these novel strategies is in progress, and ongoing development of synthetic red blood cells and techniques that reduce ischemia‐reperfusion injury may further maximize their effects. Both continuous proof‐of‐concept studies and translational clinical evaluations are necessary to clinically apply these hemostasis approaches to trauma patients.

Neuronal Death in the CNS Autonomic Control Center Comes Very Early after Cardiac Arrest and Is Not Significantly Attenuated by Prompt Hypothermic Treatment in Rats. Cells 2021; 10:E60. [PMID: 33401719 PMCID: PMC7824613 DOI: 10.3390/cells10010060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2020] [Revised: 12/28/2020] [Accepted: 12/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Autonomic dysfunction in the central nervous system (CNS) can cause death after recovery from a cardiac arrest (CA). However, few studies on histopathological changes in animal models of CA have been reported. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of neuronal death and damage in various brain regions and the spinal cord at early times after asphyxial CA and we studied the relationship between the mortality rate and neuronal damage following hypothermic treatment after CA. Rats were subjected to 7-8 min of asphyxial CA, followed by resuscitation and prompt hypothermic treatment. Eight regions related to autonomic control (the cingulate cortex, hippocampus, thalamus, hypothalamus, myelencephalon, and spinal cord) were examined using cresyl violet (a marker for Nissl substance) and Fluoro-Jade B (a marker for neuronal death). The survival rate was 44.5% 1 day post-CA, 18.2% 2 days post-CA and 0% 5 days post-CA. Neuronal death started 12 h post-CA in the gigantocellular reticular nucleus and caudoventrolateral reticular nucleus in the myelencephalon and lamina VII in the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spinal cord, of which neurons are related to autonomic lower motor neurons. In these regions, Iba-1 immunoreactivity indicating microglial activation (microgliosis) was gradually increased with time after CA. Prompt hypothermic treatment increased the survival rate at 5 days after CA with an attenuation of neuronal damages and death in the damaged regions. However, the survival rate was 0% at 12 days after CA. Taken together, our study suggests that the early damage and death of neurons related to autonomic lower motor neurons was significantly related to the high mortality rate after CA and that prompt hypothermic therapy could increase the survival rate temporarily after CA, but could not ultimately save the animal.

Positron Emission Tomography Imaging of Long-Term Expression of the 18 kDa Translocator Protein After Sudden Cardiac Arrest in Rats. Shock 2020; 55:620-629.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knowledge about the neuroinflammatory state during months after sudden cardiac arrest is scarce. Neuroinflammation is mediated by cells that express the 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO). We determined the time course of TSPO-expressing cells in a rat model of sudden cardiac arrest using longitudinal in vivo positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the TSPO-specific tracer [18F]DAA1106 over a period of 6 months. METHODS Five male Sprague Dawley rats were resuscitated from 6 min sudden cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation, three animals served as shams. PET measurements were performed on day 5, 8, 14, 90, and 180 after intervention. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed on day 140. Imaging was preceded by Barnes Maze spatial memory testing on day 3, 13, 90, and 180. Specificity of [18F]DAA1106 binding was confirmed by Iba-1 immunohistochemistry. RESULTS [18F]DAA1106 accumulated bilaterally in the dorsal hippocampus of all sudden cardiac arrest animals on all measured time points. Immunohistochemistry confirmed Iba-1 expressing cells in the hippocampal CA1 region. The number of Iba-1-immunoreactive objects per mm2 was significantly correlated with [18F]DAA1106 uptake. Additionally, two of the five sudden cardiac arrest rats showed bilateral TSPO-expression in the striatum that persisted until day 180. In Barnes Maze, the relative time spent in the target quadrant negatively correlates with dorsal hippocampal [18F]DAA1106 uptake on day 14 and 180. CONCLUSIONS After sudden cardiac arrest, TSPO remains expressed over the long-term. Sustainable treatment options for neuroinflammation may be considered to improve cognitive functions after sudden cardiac arrest.

Abstract
Hypothermia enhances outcomes of patients after resuscitation after cardiac arrest (CA). However, the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. In this study, we investigated effects of hypothermic therapy on neuronal damage/death, microglial activation, and changes of endogenous antioxidants in the anterior horn in the lumbar spinal cord in a rat model of asphyxial CA (ACA). A total of 77 adult male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomized into five groups: normal, sham ACA plus (+) normothermia, ACA + normothermia, sham ACA + hypothermia, and ACA + hypothermia. ACA was induced for 5 min by injecting vecuronium bromide. Therapeutic hypothermia was applied after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) via rapid cooling with isopropyl alcohol wipes, which was maintained at 33 ± 0.5 °C for 4 h. Normothermia groups were maintained at 37 ± 0.2 °C for 4 h. Neuronal protection, microgliosis, oxidative stress, and changes of endogenous antioxidants were evaluated at 12 h, 1 day, and 2 days after ROSC following ACA. ACA resulted in neuronal damage from 12 h after ROSC and evoked obvious degeneration/loss of spinal neurons in the ventral horn at 1 day after ACA, showing motor deficit of the hind limb. In addition, ACA resulted in a gradual increase in microgliosis with time after ACA. Therapeutic hypothermia significantly reduced neuronal loss and attenuated hind limb dysfunction, showing that hypothermia significantly attenuated microgliosis. Furthermore, hypothermia significantly suppressed ACA-induced increases of superoxide anion production and 8-hydroxyguanine expression, and significantly increased superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), SOD2, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. Taken together, hypothermic therapy was found to have a substantial impact on changes in ACA-induced microglia activation, oxidative stress factors, and antioxidant enzymes in the ventral horn of the lumbar spinal cord, which closely correlate with neuronal protection and neurological performance after ACA.

Minocycline fails to improve neurologic and histologic outcome after ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest in rats. World J Crit Care Med 2019; 8:106-119. [PMID: 31853446 PMCID: PMC6918046 DOI: 10.5492/wjccm.v8.i7.106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2019] [Revised: 09/17/2019] [Accepted: 10/29/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prolonged cardiac arrest (CA) produces extensive neuronal death and microglial proliferation and activation resulting in neuro-cognitive disabilities. Among other potential mechanisms, microglia have been implicated as triggers of neuronal death after hypoxic-ischemic insults. Minocycline is neuroprotective in some brain ischemia models, either by blunting the microglial response or by a direct effect on neurons.
AIM To improve survival, attenuate neurologic deficits, neuroinflammation, and histological damage after ventricular fibrillation (VF) CA in rats.
METHODS Adult male isoflurane-anesthetized rats were subjected to 6 min VF CA followed by 2 min resuscitation including chest compression, epinephrine, bicarbonate, and defibrillation. After return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), rats were randomized to two groups: (1) Minocycline 90 mg/kg intraperitoneally (i.p.) at 15 min ROSC, followed by 22.5 mg/kg i.p. every 12 h for 72 h; and (2) Controls, receiving the same volume of vehicle (phosphate-buffered saline). The rats were kept normothermic during the postoperative course. Neurologic injury was assessed daily using Overall Performance Category (OPC; 1 = normal, 5 = dead) and Neurologic Deficit Score (NDS; 0% = normal, 100% = dead). Rats were sacrificed at 72 h. Neuronal degeneration (Fluoro-Jade C staining) and microglia proliferation (anti-Iba-1 staining) were quantified in four selectively vulnerable brain regions (hippocampus, striatum, cerebellum, cortex) by three independent reviewers masked to the group assignment.
RESULTS In the minocycline group, 8 out of 14 rats survived to 72 h compared to 8 out of 19 rats in the control group (P = 0.46). The degree of neurologic deficit at 72 h [median, (interquartile range)] was not different between survivors in minocycline vs controls: OPC 1.5 (1-2.75) vs 2 (1.25-3), P = 0.442; NDS 12 (2-20) vs 17 (7-51), P = 0.328) or between all studied rats. The number of degenerating neurons (minocycline vs controls, mean ± SEM: Hippocampus 58 ± 8 vs 76 ± 8; striatum 121 ± 43 vs 153 ± 32; cerebellum 20 ± 7 vs 22 ± 8; cortex 0 ± 0 vs 0 ± 0) or proliferating microglia (hippocampus 157 ± 15 vs 193 cortex 0 ± 0 vs 0 ± 0; 16; striatum 150 ± 22 vs 161 ± 23; cerebellum 20 ± 7 vs 22 ± 8; cortex 26 ± 6 vs 31 ± 7) was not different between groups in any region (all P > 0.05). Numerically, there were approximately 20% less degenerating neurons and proliferating microglia in the hippocampus and striatum in the minocycline group, with a consistent pattern of histological damage across the individual regions of interest.
CONCLUSION Minocycline did not improve survival and failed to confer substantial benefits on neurologic function, neuronal loss or microglial proliferation across multiple brain regions in our model of rat VF CA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cardioplegic solutions induce cardiac arrest and protect cardiac tissue from ischaemia-reperfusion injury. However, the effects on the brain, which is vulnerable to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery and ischaemia-reperfusion injury, mostly remain unknown. We investigated if cardioplegic solutions differ in their effects in altered oxygen conditions and in their ability to induce cerebral inflammation. METHODS Thirty pigs were subjected to a midline sternotomy and CPB at 34°C with 90 min cardiac arrest followed by 120 min reperfusion. Following randomization on a 1:1:1 basis, they received either a single shot of histidine-tryptophan-α-ketoglutarate (HTK)-Bretschneider solution (n = 10), histidine-tryptophan-α-ketoglutarate-N (HTK-N; n = 10) or HTK plus 1.2 mg/l cyclosporine A (HTK/CsA; n = 10). Brain regions of interest (frontal cortex, cerebellum, brain stem, diencephalon, colliculus superior) were analysed by real time quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction for hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), tumour necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-10, IL-1β and IL-1β receptor as well as by immunohistochemical analysis for HIF-1α. Blood gas and electrolyte analyses were performed. RESULTS Comparisons between baseline and reperfusion period levels revealed that HTK-N cardioplegia induced a smaller reduction of the haemoglobin content and blood calcium concentrations (hbbaseline: 5.97 ± 0.63 mmol/l; hbreperfusion: 6.16 ± 0.66 mmol/l; P = 0.428; Cabaseline2+: 1.36 ± 0.05 mmol/l; Careperfusion2+: 1.28 ± 0.05 mmol/l; P < 0.001) compared to HTK (hbbaseline: 5.93 ± 0.45 mmol/l; hbreperfusion: 4.72 ± 0.79 mmol/l; P = 0.001; Cabaseline2+: 1.34 ± 0.07 mmol/l; Careperfusion2+: 1.24 ± 0.06 mmol/l; P = 0.004) and HTK/CsA cardioplegia (hbbaseline: 5.88 ± 0.44 mmol/l; hbreperfusion: 5.14 ± 0.87 mmol/l; P = 0.040; Cabaseline2+: 1.38 ± 0.04 mmol/l; Careperfusion2+: 1.20 ± 0.14 mmol/l; P = 0.001). Brain region-specific regulation of the HIF-1α expression, no general HIF-1α activation and a lower tumour necrosis factor-α expression (pto HTK = 0.050, pto HTK/CsA = 0.013) were documented for HTK-N cardioplegia. CONCLUSIONS HTK-N (Custodiol-N) induced fewer cerebral effects and less inflammation during CPB surgery than HTK and HTK/CsA cardioplegia. These data suggest that HTK-N exerts brain protective effects during and after CPB surgery.

Abstract
Systemic inflammation and multi-organ failure represent hallmarks of the post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS) and predict severe neurological injury and often fatal outcomes. Current interventions for cardiac arrest focus on the reversal of precipitating cardiac pathologies and the implementation of supportive measures with the goal of limiting damage to at-risk tissue. Despite the widespread use of targeted temperature management, there remain no proven approaches to manage reperfusion injury in the period following the return of spontaneous circulation. Recent evidence has implicated the lung as a moderator of systemic inflammation following remote somatic injury in part through effects on innate immune priming. In this review, we explore concepts related to lung-dependent innate immune priming and its potential role in PCAS. Specifically, we propose and investigate the conceptual model of lung-brain coupling drawing from the broader literature connecting tissue damage and acute lung injury with cerebral reperfusion injury. Subsequently, we consider the role that interventions designed to short-circuit lung-dependent immune priming might play in improving patient outcomes following cardiac arrest and possibly other acute neurological injuries.

Anti-oxidative or anti-inflammatory additives reduce ischemia/reperfusions injury in an animal model of cardiopulmonary bypass. Saudi J Biol Sci 2019; 27:18-29. [PMID: 31889812 PMCID: PMC6933174 DOI: 10.1016/j.sjbs.2019.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2018] [Revised: 04/01/2019] [Accepted: 04/03/2019] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Severe inborn cardiac malformations are typically corrected in cardioplegia, with a cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) taking over body circulation. During the operation the arrested hearts are subjected to a global ischemia/reperfusion injury. Although the applied cardioplegic solutions have a certain protective effect, application of additional substances to reduce cardiac damage are of interest. 18 domestic piglets (10–15 kg) were subjected to a 90 min CPB and a 120 min reperfusion phase without or with the application of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (10 mg/kg body weight) or minocycline (4 mg/kg body weight), with both drugs given before and after CPB. 18 additional sham-operated piglets without or with epigallocatechin-3-gallate or minocycline served as controls. In total 36 piglets were analyzed (3 CPB-groups and 3 control groups without or with epigallocatechin-3-gallate or minocycline respectively; 6 piglets per group). Hemodynamic and blood parameters and ATP-measurements were assessed. Moreover, a histological evaluation of the heart muscle was performed. Results Piglets of the CPB-group needed more catecholamine support to achieve sufficient blood pressure. Ejection fraction and cardiac output were not different between the 6 groups. However, cardiac ATP-levels and blood lactate were significantly lower and creatine kinase was significantly higher in the three CPB-groups. Markers of apoptosis, hypoxia, nitrosative and oxidative stress were significantly elevated in hearts of the CPB-group. Nevertheless, addition of epigallocatechin-3-gallate or minocycline significantly reduced markers of myocardial damage. Noteworthy, EGCG was more effective in reducing markers of hypoxia, whereas minocycline more efficiently decreased inflammation. Conclusions While epigallocatechin-3-gallate or minocycline did not improve cardiac hemodynamics, markers of myocardial damage were significantly lower in the CPB-groups with epigallocatechin-3-gallate or minocycline supplementation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute cocaine intoxication is one of the important causes of admission to emergency department, especially in western countries. We aimed to compare the efficacies of tetracycline, minocycline, doxycycline in the prevention of seizures and deaths in mice due to cocaine intoxication. METHODS In the study, a total of 120 balb-c male mice weighing 25-30 g were randomized into 4 groups as tetracycline 255 mg/kg, minocycline 170 mg/kg, doxycycline 157 mg/kg, 0.5 ml saline (placebo). The doses of tetracycline, minocycline and doxycycline are the calculated ED50 values. The mice in the groups received 93 mg/kg cocaine intraperitoneally 10 min after drug administration. The dose of cocaine is 50% of the lethal dose. After cocaine injection, all mice were observed for 30 min in terms of cocaine toxicity findings. Mortality rates, death times, seizure activities, and seizure onset times of the mice were clinically evaluated in an observational way. RESULTS There were significant differences among all the groups in terms of seizure and lethality (p < 0.001). The ratio of animals with seizures was significantly lower in the minocycline (73.3%), and doxycycline (73.3%) groups (all p = 0.040). The ratio of animals with lethality was significantly lower in the minocycline (23.3%) group compared with vehicle (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION In our acute cocaine intoxication model, minocycline was effective in terms of lethality and preventing seizures, doxycycline was effective in preventing seizures.

Abstract
Introduction: Post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS) is characterized by systemic ischemia/reperfusion injury, anoxic brain injury, and post-arrest myocardial dysfunction superimposed on a precipitating pathology. The role of inflammatory cytokines in cardiac arrest remains unclear. Aims: We aimed to describe, with an emphasis on clinical applications, what is known about the role of inflammatory cytokines in cardiac arrest. Data Sources: A PubMed literature review was performed for relevant articles. Only articles in English that studied cytokines in patients with cardiac arrest were included. Results: Cytokines play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of PCAS. Following cardiac arrest, the large release of circulating cytokines mediates the ischemia/reperfusion injury, brain dysfunction, and myocardial dysfunction seen. Interleukins, tumor necrosis factor, and matrix metalloproteinases all play a unique prognostic role in PCAS. High levels of inflammatory cytokines have been associated with mortality and/or poor neurologic outcomes. Interventions to modify the systemic inflammation seen in PCAS continue to be heavily studied. Currently, the only approved medical intervention for comatose patients following cardiac arrest is targeted temperature management. Medical agents, including minocycline and sodium sulfide, have demonstrated promise in animal models. Conclusions: The role of inflammatory cytokines for both short- and long-term outcomes is an important area for future investigation.

Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) is sudden loss of heart function and abrupt stop in effective blood flow to the body. The patients who initially achieve return of spontaneous circulation (RoSC) after CA have low survival rate. It has been known that multiorgan dysfunctions after RoSC are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Most previous studies have focused on the heart and brain in RoSC after CA. Therefore, the aim of this research was to perform serological, physiological, and histopathology study in the lung and to determine whether or how pulmonary dysfunction is associated with low survival rate after CA. Experimental animals were divided into sham-operated group (n=14 at each point in time), which was not subjected to CA operation, and CA-operated group (n=14 at each point in time), which was subjected to CA. The rats in each group were sacrificed at 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, and 2 days, respectively, after RoSC. Then, pathological changes of the lungs were analyzed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, Western blot and immunohistochemistry for tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). The survival rate after CA was decreased with time past. We found that histopathological score and TNF-α immunoreactivity were significantly increased in the lung after CA. These results indicate that inflammation triggered by ischemia-reperfusion damage after CA leads to pulmonary injury/dysfunctions and contributes to low survival rate. In addition, the finding of increase in TNF-α via inflammation in the lung after CA would be able to utilize therapeutic or diagnostic measures in the future.

Abstract
The hydrogen sulfide donor sodium hydrogen sulfide (NaHS) is recognized as a neuroprotective agent, which induces a hibernation-like metabolic state and hypothermia. However, it remains unclear whether it is the sulfide itself or the hypothermia induced by the sulfide that mediates treatment outcomes following cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). We therefore tested whether NaHS improved outcomes following CA/CPR in mice maintained at 35.0°C by active warming during recovery. Adult male mice were subjected to 8 minutes CA/CPR and randomly treated intraperitoneally with either implantation of miniosmotic pump with NaHS (50 μmol/kg/day) for 3 days or vehicle 30 minutes after CPR. A normothermia group had cranial temperatures kept >35.0°C for 6 hours with a heat pad, and a hypothermia group was allowed to spontaneous hypothermia at room temperature (26.0°C). Behavioral testing and histological evaluation of neurons in the CA1 hippocampal region and striatum were performed on days 4 and 12 after CA/CPR. Both cranial and body temperature decreased following CA/CPR in the hypothermia group, and this was enhanced by NaHS treatment. In the active warming (normothermia) group, NaHS protected striatal neurons and improved long-term survival, which was comparable to the hypothermia groups. No differences were found in the CA1 region. Following CA/CPR, NaHS treatment decreased the heart rate, but not the mean arterial pressure. Our study demonstrated that post-CPR treatment with NaHS exerted neuroprotection in mice while maintaining a normal cranial temperature, indicating that NaHS-related neuroprotection is independent of the known protective effect of spontaneous hypothermia.

Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. The majority of the associated mortalities are caused by post-CA syndrome, which includes symptoms, such as neurologic damage, myocardial dysfunction and systemic inflammation. Following CA, return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) leads to a brain reperfusion injury, which subsequently causes adverse neurologic outcomes or mortality. Therefore, investigating the underlying mechanisms of ROSC-induced neurologic deficits and establishing potential treatments is critical to prevent and treat post-CA syndrome. In the current study, CA rat models were established by asphyxia. Following ROSC, the temperature was controlled to achieve hypothermia. The general neurologic status was assessed using the neurologic deficit scale. Changes in the concentrations of interleukin (IL)-18 and IL-1β were measured with ELISA and the dynamic change in NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 3 inflammasome components was determined by western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. Neuronal death and apoptosis were measured via TUNEL assays. In the CA rat models, increasing the duration of CA before cardiopulmonary resuscitation was found to aggravate the neural deficit and increase the incidence of inflammation. Following ROSC, the expression level of the inflammasome components was observed to increase in CA rat models, which was accompanied by increased secretion of IL-18 and IL-1β, indicating the promotion of inflammation. In addition, the study identified the beneficial role of spontaneous hypothermia in ameliorating the ROSC-induced inflammation and neurologic deficit in CA rat models, including the downregulation of inflammasome components and attenuating neuronal apoptosis. The present study contributes to the understanding of underlying mechanisms in CA-evoked inflammation and the subsequent neurologic damage following ROSC. A novel potential therapeutic strategy that may increase survival times and the quality of life for patients suffering from post-CA syndrome is proposed in the present study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients who suffer a cardiac arrest from trauma rarely survive, even with aggressive resuscitation attempts, including an emergency department thoracotomy. Emergency Preservation and Resuscitation (EPR) was developed to utilize hypothermia to buy time to obtain hemostasis before irreversible organ damage occurs. Large animal studies have demonstrated that cooling to tympanic membrane temperature 10°C during exsanguination cardiac arrest can allow up to 2 hours of circulatory arrest and repair of simulated injuries with normal neurologic recovery. STUDY DESIGN The Emergency Preservation and Resuscitation for Cardiac Arrest from Trauma trial has been developed to test the feasibility and safety of initiating EPR. Select surgeons will be trained in the EPR technique. If a trained surgeon is available, the subject will undergo EPR. If not, the subject will be followed as a control subject. For this feasibility study, 10 EPR and 10 control subjects will be enrolled. STUDY PARTICIPANTS Study participants will be those with penetrating trauma who remain pulseless despite an emergency department thoracotomy. INTERVENTIONS Emergency Preservation and Resuscitation will be initiated via an intra-aortic flush of a large volume of ice-cold saline solution. Following surgical hemostasis, delayed resuscitation will be accomplished with cardiopulmonary bypass. OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome will be survival to hospital discharge without significant neurologic deficits. Secondary outcomes include long-term survival and functional outcome. IMPLICATIONS Once data from these 20 subjects are reviewed, revisions to the inclusion criteria and/or the EPR technique may then be tested in a second set of EPR and control subjects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic spinal cord injuries (SCI) have devastating consequences for the physical, financial, and psychosocial well-being of patients and their caregivers. Expediently delivering interventions during the early postinjury period can have a tremendous impact on long-term functional recovery. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY This is largely due to the unique pathophysiology of SCI where the initial traumatic insult (primary injury) is followed by a progressive secondary injury cascade characterized by ischemia, proapoptotic signaling, and peripheral inflammatory cell infiltration. Over the subsequent hours, release of proinflammatory cytokines and cytotoxic debris (DNA, ATP, reactive oxygen species) cyclically adds to the harsh postinjury microenvironment. As the lesions mature into the chronic phase, regeneration is severely impeded by the development of an astroglial-fibrous scar surrounding coalesced cystic cavities. Addressing these challenges forms the basis of current and upcoming treatments for SCI. MANAGEMENT This paper discusses the evidence-based management of a patient with SCI while emphasizing the importance of early definitive care. Key neuroprotective therapies are summarized including surgical decompression, methylprednisolone, and blood pressure augmentation. We then review exciting neuroprotective interventions on the cusp of translation such as Riluzole, Minocycline, magnesium, therapeutic hypothermia, and CSF drainage. We also explore the most promising neuroregenerative strategies in trial today including Cethrin™, anti-NOGO antibody, cell-based approaches, and bioengineered biomaterials. Each section provides a working knowledge of the key preclinical and patient trials relevant to clinicians while highlighting the pathophysiologic rationale for the therapies. CONCLUSION We conclude with our perspectives on the future of treatment and research in this rapidly evolving field.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Post cardiac arrest (CA) syndrome is associated with a low survival rate in patients who initially have return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after CA. The aim of this study was to examine the histopathology and inflammatory response in the heart during the post CA syndrome. METHODS We induced asphyxial CA in male Sprague-Dawley rats and determined the survival rate of these rats during the post resuscitation phase. RESULTS Survival of the rats decreased after CA: 66.7% at 6 hours, 36.7% at 1 day, and 6.7% at 2 days after ROSC following CA. The rats were sacrificed at 6 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, and 2 days after ROSC, and their heart tissues were examined. Histopathological scores increased at 12 hours post CA and afterwards, histopathological changes were not significant. In addition, levels of tumor necrosis factor-α immunoreactivity gradually increased after CA. CONCLUSION The survival rate of rats 2 days post CA was very low, even though histopathological and inflammatory changes in the heart were not pronounced in the early stage following CA.

The efficacy of minocycline mouth rinses on the symptoms associated with recurrent aphthous stomatitis: a randomized, double-blind, crossover study assessing different doses of oral rinse. Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol 2017; 123:675-679.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy of 2 different concentrations of minocycline mouthwashes on the symptoms of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS). STUDY DESIGN The 2-year study was designed as a randomized, double-blind, crossover study. Healthy patients with frequent RAS episodes received 2 sealed and computer-randomized marked kits containing minocycline mouthwashes (0.2% and 0.5% solution). The patients were asked to use 1 of the kits on the first episode of RAS, starting with the first onset of prodromal symptoms, until the symptoms resolved or up to a maximum of 10 days (whichever came first). The patients were asked to use their second kit during a subsequent episode. RESULTS A total of 14 patients (8 males, 6 females) completed the 2 arms of the study. The mean intensity of pain was significantly lower when the 0.5% solution was used compared with the 0.2% solution (P = .027). The difference reached the level of statistical significance as soon as the end of the second day of use (P = .032). Only minor and temporary adverse reactions were documented. CONCLUSIONS We found that 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse was more effective than the 0.2% concentration, which had been suggested by our group in previous studies for the management of RAS.

Abstract
Low survival rate occurs in patients who initially experience a spontaneous return of circulation after cardiac arrest (CA). In this study, we induced asphyxial CA in adult male Sprague-Daley rats, maintained their body temperature at 37 ± 0.5°C, and then observed the survival rate during the post-resuscitation phase. We examined neuronal damage in the hippocampus using cresyl violet (CV) and Fluore-Jade B (F-J B) staining, and pro-inflammatory response using ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (Iba-1), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) immunohistochemistry in the hippocampus after asphyxial CA in rats under normothermia. Our results show that the survival rate decreased gradually post-CA (about 63% at 6 hours, 37% at 1 day, and 8% at 2 days post-CA). Rats were sacrificed at these points in time post-CA, and no neuronal damage was found in the hippocampus until 1 day post-CA. However, some neurons in the stratum pyramidale of the CA region in the hippocampus were dead 2 days post-CA. Iba-1 immunoreactive microglia in the CA1 region did not change until 1 day post-CA, and they were activated (enlarged cell bodies with short and thicken processes) in all layers 2 days post-CA. Meanwhile, GFAP-immunoreactive astrocytes did not change significantly until 2 days post-CA. TNF-α immunoreactivity decreased significantly in neurons of the stratum pyramidale in the CA1 region 6 hours post-CA, decreased gradually until 1 day post-CA, and increased significantly again 2 days post-CA. These findings suggest that low survival rate of normothermic rats in the early period of asphyxia-induced CA is related to increased TNF-α immunoreactivity, but not to neuronal damage in the hippocampal CA1 region.

Abstract
Aortocoronary bypass or valve surgery usually require cardiac arrest using cardioplegic solutions. Although, in principle, in a number of cases beating heart surgery (so-called off-pump technique) is possible, aortic or valve surgery or correction of congenital heart diseases mostly require cardiopulmonary arrest. During this condition, the heart-lung machine also named cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has to take over the circulation. It is noteworthy that the invention of a machine bypassing the heart and lungs enabled complex cardiac operations, but possible negative effects of the CPB on other organs, especially the brain, cannot be neglected. Thus, neuroprotection during CPB is still a matter of great interest. In this review, we will describe the impact of CPB on the brain and focus on pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies to protect the brain.

Abstract
Most resuscitated victims of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who survive to hospital expire due to the postresuscitation syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by a sepsis-like proinflammatory state. The objective of this investigation was to determine whether a relationship exists between the rise of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), a proinflammatory cytokine, following return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), and early postarrest survival in a clinically relevant animal model of spontaneous ventricular fibrillation (VF). Mixed-breed Yorkshire swine (n = 20), weighing 39 ± 5 kg, were anesthetized and catheters placed in the right atrium and left ventricle/ascending aorta for continuous pressure monitoring. VF was induced by occluding the left anterior descending coronary artery with an angioplasty balloon. After 7 min of untreated VF, advanced life support resuscitation attempts were made for up to 20 min. Animals achieving ROSC were monitored for 3 h and fluid and pressor support was administered as needed. TNF levels were measured before VF and at 0, 15, and 30 min after ROSC using quantitative sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Twelve (60%) animals experienced early death, expiring during the 3 hour postarrest period (9 pulseless electrical activity, 2 VF, and 1 asystole). The TNF level at 15 min post-ROSC was significantly associated with death within the first 3 h post-ROSC with a univariate odds ratio of 1.4 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.05-2.2, P = 0.01]. Using a cutoff TNF level of 525 pg/mL at 15 min post-ROSC had 100% negative predictive value (95% CI 0%-37%) and 67% positive predictive value (95% CI 35%-90%) for early death with a hazard ratio of 6.6 (95% CI 1.9-23.5). TNF increases shortly after ROSC and is predictive of early death. Early identification of resuscitated victims at greatest risk for hemodynamic collapse and recurrent arrest might facilitate the use of early hospital-based interventions to decrease the likelihood of a poor outcome.

Abstract
Surgical correction of congenital cardiac malformations or aortocoronary bypass surgery in many cases implies the use of cardiopulmonary-bypass (CPB). However, a possible negative impact of CPB on internal organs such as brain, kidney, lung and liver cannot be neglected. In general, CPB initiates a systemic inflammatory response (SIRS) which is presumably caused by contact of blood components with the surface of CPB tubing. Moreover, during CPB the heart typically undergoes a period of cold ischemia, and the other peripheral organs a global low flow hypoperfusion. As a result, a plethora of pro-inflammatory mediators and cytokines is released activating different biochemical pathways, which finally may result in the occurrence of microthrombosis, microemboli, in depletion of coagulation factors and haemorrhagic diathesis besides typical ischemia-reperfusion injuries. In our review we will focus on possible pharmacological interventions in patients to decrease negative effects of CPB and to improve post-operative outcome with regard to heart and other organs like brain, kidney, or lung.

Abstract
The advent of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) revolutionized the care of patients with cardiac arrest, now allowing survival of up to 30% after out-of-hospital arrest due to arrhythmia; however, outcomes for cardiac arrest after trauma remain dismal, with less than 10% survival despite the most aggressive modern resuscitation techniques. The short time interval between cardiac arrest and brain ischemia, the reduced efficacy of CPR in the patient with profound hypovolemia due to hemorrhage, and the speed of exsanguination from major vascular injury all conspire to limit the effectiveness of standard CPR in the critically injured patient. Beginning in the 1980s, researchers began to harness the effects of profound hypothermia in order to extend the window of survivability after traumatic arrest, allowing the critical time needed to obtain surgical hemostasis in otherwise lethal exsanguinating injuries. These studies have culminated in the emergency preservation and resuscitation (EPR) of the trauma patient. Rapid central arterial access is obtained and profound (<10 °C) hypothermia induced with aortic infusion of cold saline. During this window of up to 1 h, damage control surgical techniques are applied to control hemorrhage and repair injuries, followed by controlled rewarming and reperfusion using cardiopulmonary bypass. In this review, we trace these techniques from their early theoretical development, through refinement in clinically relevant animal models, and into their present application in a currently-enrolling human clinical trial of EPR for cardiac arrest from trauma (EPR-CAT), as well as examine current topics, ongoing challenges, and future directions for emergency preservation and resuscitation research.

Abstract
Neurocognitive disturbances are common among survivors of cardiac arrest (CA). Although initial management of CA, including bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation, optimal chest compression, and early defibrillation, has been implemented continuously over the last years, few therapeutic interventions are available to minimize or attenuate the extent of brain injury occurring after the return of spontaneous circulation. In this review, we discuss several promising drugs that could provide some potential benefits for neurological recovery after CA. Most of these drugs have been investigated exclusively in experimental CA models and only limited clinical data are available. Further research, which also considers combined neuroprotective strategies that target multiple pathways involved in the pathophysiology of postanoxic brain injury, is certainly needed to demonstrate the effectiveness of these interventions in this setting. Moreover, the evaluation of neurological prognosis of comatose patients after CA remains an important challenge that requires the accurate use of several tools. As most patients with CA are currently treated with targeted temperature management (TTM), combined with sedative drug therapy, especially during the hypothermic phase, the reliability of neurological examination in evaluating these patients is delayed to 72-96 h after admission. Thus, additional tests, including electrophysiological examinations, brain imaging and biomarkers, have been largely implemented to evaluate earlier the extent of brain damage in these patients.

Abstract
The possible role of minocycline in microglial activation and neuronal death after cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in mice was investigated in this study. The mice were given potassium chloride to stop the heart beating for 8 min to achieve CA, and they were subsequently resuscitated with epinephrine and chest compressions. Forty adult C57BL/6 male mice were divided into 4 groups (n=10 each): sham-operated group, CA/CPR group, CA/CPR+minocycline group, and CA/CPR+vehicle group. Animals in the latter two groups were intraperitoneally injected with minocycline (50 mg/kg) or vehicle (normal saline) 30 min after recovery of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Twenty-four h after CA/CPR, the brains were removed for histological evaluation of the hippocampus. Microglial activation was evaluated by detecting the expression of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule-1 (Iba1) by immunohistochemistry. Neuronal death was analyzed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in the hippocampus were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed that the neuronal death was aggravated, most microglia were activated and TNF-α levels were enhanced in the hippocampus CA1 region of mice subjected to CA/CPR as compared with those in the sham-operated group (P<0.05). Administration with minocycline 30 min after ROSC could significantly decrease the microglial response, TNF-α levels and neuronal death (P<0.05). It was concluded that early administration with minocycline has a strong therapeutic potential for CA/CPR-induced brain injury.

Abstract
Surgical correction of congenital cardiac malformations mostly implies the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). However, a possible negative impact of CPB on cerebral structures like the hippocampus cannot be neglected. Therefore, we investigated the effect of CPB on hippocampus CA1 and CA3 regions without or with the addition of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) or minocycline. We studied 42 piglets and divided them into six experimental groups: control without or with EGCG or minocycline, CPB without or with EGCG or minocycline. The piglets underwent 90 minutes CPB and subsequently, a 120-minute recovery and reperfusion phase. Thereafter, histology of the hippocampus was performed and the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content was measured. Histologic evaluation revealed that CPB produced a significant peri-cellular edema in both CA regions. Moreover, we found an increased number of cells stained with markers for hypoxia, apoptosis and nitrosative stress. Most of these alterations were significantly reduced to or near to control levels by application of EGCG or minocycline. ATP content was significantly reduced within the hippocampus after CPB. This reduction could not be antagonized by EGCG or minocycline. In conclusion, CPB had a significant negative impact on the integrity of hippocampal neural cells. This cellular damage could be significantly attenuated by addition of EGCG or minocycline.

Abstract
We previously showed that prolonged cardiac arrest (CA) produces neuronal death with microglial proliferation. Microglial proliferation, but not neuronal death, was attenuated by deeper hypothermia. Microglia are reportedly a major source of cytokines. In this study, we tested the hypotheses that (1) CA will result in highly specific regional and temporal increases in brain cytokines; and (2) these increases will be attenuated by deep hypothermia. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to rapid exsanguination. After 6 minutes of normothermic no-flow, different levels of hypothermia were induced by either ice-cold (IC) or room-temperature (RT) aortic flush. After 20 minutes CA, rats were resuscitated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and sacrificed at 6 or 24 hours. Rats subjected to CPB only (without CA) and shams (no CPB or CA) served as controls (n=6 per group). Cytokines were analyzed in cerebellum, cortex, hippocampus, and striatum. Immunofluorescence was used to identify cell types associated with individual cytokines. Intra-CA temperature was lower after IC versus RT flush (21°C vs. 28°C, p<0.05). At 6 hours, striatum showed a massive increase in interleukin (IL)-1α and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) (>100-fold higher than in hippocampus), which was attenuated by deeper hypothermia in the IC versus RT group. In contrast, IL-12 was 50-fold higher in hippocampus versus striatum. At 24 hours, cytokines decreased. In striatum, IL-1α colocalized with astrocytes while TNF-α colocalized with neurons. In hippocampus, IL-12 colocalized with hippocampal hilar neurons, the only region where neuronal degeneration was observed at 24 hours at both IC and RT groups. We report important temporo-spatial differences in the brain cytokine response to hypothermic CA, with a novel role of striatum. Astrocytes and neurons, but not microglia colocalized with individual cytokines. Hypothermia showed protective effects. These neuroinflammatory reactions precede neuronal death. New therapeutic strategies may need to target early regional neuroinflammation.

Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) triggers neuroinflammation that could play a role in a delayed neuronal death. In our previously established rat model of ventricular fibrillation (VF) CA characterized by extensive neuronal death, we tested the hypothesis that individual brain regions have specific neuroinflammatory responses, as reflected by regional brain tissue levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α and other cytokines. In a prospective study, rats were randomized to 6min (CA6), 8min (CA8) or 10min (CA10) of VF CA, or sham group. Cortex, striatum, hippocampus and cerebellum were evaluated for TNFα and interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12 and interferon gamma at 3h, 6h or 14 d after CA by ELISA and Luminex. Immunohistochemistry was used to determine the cell source of TNFα. CA resulted in a selective TNFα response with significant regional and temporal differences. At 3h after CA, TNFα-levels increased in all regions depending on the duration of the insult. The most pronounced increase was observed in striatum that showed 20-fold increase in CA10 vs. sham, and 3-fold increase vs. CA6 or CA8 group, respectively (p<0.01). TNFα levels in striatum decreased between 3h and 6h, but increased in other regions between 3h and 14 d. TNFα levels remained twofold higher in CA6 vs. shams across brain regions at 14 d (p<0.01). In contrast to pronounced TNFα response, other cytokines showed only a minimal increase in CA6 and CA8 groups vs. sham in all brain regions with the exception that IL-1β increased twofold in cerebellum and striatum (p<0.01). TNFα colocalized with neurons. In conclusion, CA produced a duration-dependent acute TNFα response, with dramatic increase in the striatum where TNFα colocalized with neurons. Increased TNFα levels persist for at least two weeks. This TNFα surge contrasts the lack of an acute increase in other cytokines in brain after CA. Given that striatum is a selectively vulnerable brain region, our data suggest possible role of neuronal TNFα in striatum after CA and identify therapeutic targets for future experiments. This study was approved by the University of Pittsburgh IACUC 1002340A-3.
