Abstract
Neuronal activity and energy supply must maintain a fine balance for neuronal fitness. Various channels of communication between the two could impact network output in different ways. Sulfonylurea receptors (SURs) are a modification of ATP-binding cassette proteins (ABCs) that confer ATP-dependent gating on their associated ion channels. They are widely expressed and link metabolic states directly to neuronal activity. The role they play varies in different circuits, both enabling bursting and inhibiting activity in pathological conditions. The crab, Cancer borealis, has central patterns generators (CPGs) that fire in rhythmic bursts nearly constantly and it is unknown how energy availability influences these networks. The pyloric network of the stomatogastric ganglion (STG) and cardiac ganglion (GC) control rhythmic contractions of the foregut and heart respectively. Pharmacological manipulation of SURs results in opposite effects in the two CPGs. Neuronal firing completely stops in the STG when SUR-associated channels are open, and firing increases when the channels are closed. This results from a decrease in the excitability of pyloric dilator (PD) neurons, which are a part of the pacemaker kernel. The neurons of the CG, paradoxically, increase firing within bursts when SUR-associated channels are opened, and bursting slows when SUR-associated channels are closed. The channel permeability and sensitivities analyses present novel SUR-conductance biophysics, which nevertheless change activity in ways reminiscent of the predominantly studied mammalian receptor/channels. We suggest that SUR-associated conductances allow different neurons to respond to energy states in different ways through a common mechanism.

Abstract
Injury to the brain after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) results from numerous complex cellular mechanisms. At present, effective therapy for ICH is limited and a better understanding of the mechanisms of brain injury is necessary to improve prognosis. There is increasing evidence that ion channel dysregulation occurs at multiple stages in primary and secondary brain injury following ICH. Ion channels such as TWIK-related K+ channel 1, sulfonylurea 1 transient receptor potential melastatin 4 and glutamate-gated channels affect ion homeostasis in ICH. They in turn participate in the formation of brain edema, disruption of the blood-brain barrier, and the generation of neurotoxicity. In this review, we summarize the interaction between ions and ion channels, the effects of ion channel dysregulation, and we discuss some therapeutics based on ion-channel modulation following ICH.

Abstract
HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) are the result of the activity of HIV-1 within the central nervous system (CNS). While the introduction of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has significantly reduced the occurrence of severe cases of HAND, milder cases still persist. The persistence of HAND in the modern ART era has been linked to a chronic dysregulated inflammatory profile. There is increasing evidence suggesting a potential role of Viral protein R (Vpr) in dysregulating the neuroinflammatory processes in people living with HIV (PLHIV), which may contribute to the development of HAND. Since the role of Vpr in neuroinflammatory mechanisms has not been clearly defined, we conducted a scoping review of fundamental research studies on this topic. The review aimed to assess the size and scope of available research literature on this topic and provide commentary on whether Vpr contributes to neuroinflammation, as highlighted in fundamental studies. Based on the specified selection criteria, 10 studies (6 of which were cell culture-based and 4 that included both animal and cell culture experiments) were eligible for inclusion. The main findings were that (1) Vpr can increase neuroinflammatory markers, with studies consistently reporting higher levels of TNF-α and IL-8, (2) Vpr induces (neuro)inflammation via specific pathways, including the PI3K/AKT, p38-MAPk, JNK-SAPK and Sur1-Trpm4 channels in astrocytes and the p38 and JNK-SAPK in myeloid cells, and (3) Vpr-specific protein amino acid signatures (73R, 77R and 80A) may play an important role in exacerbating neuroinflammation and the neuropathophysiology of HAND. Therefore, Vpr should be investigated for its potential contribution to neuroinflammation in the development of HAND.

Outcomes in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Receiving Sulfonylureas: A Propensity-Adjusted Analysis. World Neurosurg 2023; 176:e400-e407. [PMID: 37236313 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2023.05.073] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is associated with increased blood-brain barrier permeability, disrupted tight junctions, and increased cerebral edema. Sulfonylureas are associated with reduced tight-junction disturbance and edema and improved functional outcome in aSAH animal models, but human data are scant. We analyzed neurological outcomes in aSAH patients prescribed sulfonylureas for diabetes mellitus. METHODS Patients treated for aSAH at a single institution (August 1, 2007-July 31, 2019) were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with diabetes were grouped by presence or absence of sulfonylurea therapy at hospital admission. The primary outcome was favorable neurologic status at last follow-up (modified Rankin Scale score ≤2). Variables with an unadjusted P-value of <0.20 were included in a propensity-adjusted multivariable logistic regression analysis to identify predictors of favorable outcomes. RESULTS Of 1013 aSAH patients analyzed, 129 (13%) had diabetes at admission, and 16 of these (12%) were receiving sulfonylureas. Fewer diabetic than nondiabetic patients had favorable outcomes (40% [52/129] vs. 51% [453/884], P = 0.03). Among diabetic patients, sulfonylurea use (OR 3.90, 95% CI 1.05-15.9, P = 0.046), Charlson Comorbidity Index <4 (OR 3.66, 95% CI 1.24-12.1, P = 0.02), and absence of delayed cerebral infarction (OR 4.09, 95% CI 1.20-15.5, P = 0.03) were associated with favorable outcomes in the multivariable analysis. CONCLUSIONS Diabetes was strongly associated with unfavorable neurologic outcomes. An unfavorable outcome in this cohort was mitigated by sulfonylureas, supporting some preclinical evidence of a possible neuroprotective role for these medications in aSAH. These results warrant further study on dose, timing, and duration of administration in humans.

Abstract
The TRPM4 gene codes for a membrane ion channel subunit related to inflammation in the central nervous system. Recent investigation has identified an association between TRPM4 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs8104571 and rs150391806 and increased intracranial (ICP) pressure following traumatic brain injury (TBI). We assessed the influence of these genotypes on clinical outcomes and ICP in TBI patients. We included 292 trauma patients with TBI. DNA extraction and real-time PCR were used for TRPM4 rs8104571 and rs150391806 allele discrimination. Five participants were determined to have the rs8104571 homozygous variant genotype, and 20 participants were identified as heterozygotes; 24 of these 25 participants were African American. No participants had rs150391806 variant alleles, preventing further analysis of this SNP. Genotypes containing the rs8104571 variant allele were associated with decreased Glasgow outcome scale-extended (GOSE) score (P = 0.0231), which was also consistent within our African-American subpopulation (P = 0.0324). Regression analysis identified an association between rs8104571 variant homozygotes and mortality within our overall population (P = 0.0230) and among African Americans (P = 0.0244). Participants with rs8104571 variant genotypes exhibited an overall increase in ICP (P = 0.0077), although a greater frequency of ICP measurements > 25 mmHg was observed in wild-type participants (P = < 0.0001). We report an association between the TRPM4 rs8104571 variant allele and poor outcomes following TBI. These findings can potentially be translated into a precision medicine approach for African Americans following TBI utilizing TRPM4-specific pharmaceutical interventions. Validation through larger cohorts is warranted.

Abstract
Brain edema is one of the most devastating consequences of ischemic stroke. Malignant cerebral edema is the main reason accounting for the high mortality rate of large hemispheric strokes. Despite decades of tremendous efforts to elucidate mechanisms underlying the formation of ischemic brain edema and search for therapeutic targets, current treatments for ischemic brain edema remain largely symptom-relieving rather than aiming to stop the formation and progression of edema. Recent preclinical research reveals novel cellular mechanisms underlying edema formation after brain ischemia and reperfusion. Advancement in neuroimaging techniques also offers opportunities for early diagnosis and prediction of malignant brain edema in stroke patients to rapidly adopt life-saving surgical interventions. As reperfusion therapies become increasingly used in clinical practice, understanding how therapeutic reperfusion influences the formation of cerebral edema after ischemic stroke is critical for decision-making and post-reperfusion management. In this review, we summarize these research advances in the past decade on the cellular mechanisms, and evaluation, prediction, and intervention of ischemic brain edema in clinical settings, aiming to provide insight into future preclinical and clinical research on the diagnosis and treatment of brain edema after stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Decompression of the injured spinal cord confers neuroprotection. Compared with timing of surgery, verification of surgical decompression is understudied. OBJECTIVE To compare the judgment of cervical spinal cord decompression using real-time intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) following laminectomy with postoperative MRI and CT myelography. METHODS Fifty-one patients were retrospectively reviewed. Completeness of decompression was evaluated by real-time IOUS and compared with postoperative MRI (47 cases) and CT myelography (4 cases). RESULTS Five cases (9.8%) underwent additional laminectomy after initial IOUS evaluation to yield a final judgment of adequate decompression using IOUS in all 51 cases (100%). Postoperative MRI/CT myelography showed adequate decompression in 43 cases (84.31%). Six cases had insufficient bony decompression, of which 3 (50%) had cerebrospinal fluid effacement at >1 level. Two cases had severe circumferential intradural swelling despite adequate bony decompression. Between groups with and without adequate decompression on postoperative MRI/CT myelography, there were significant differences for American Spinal Injury Association motor score, American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale grade, AO Spine injury morphology, and intramedullary lesion length (IMLL). Multivariate analysis using stepwise variable selection and logistic regression showed that preoperative IMLL was the most significant predictor of inadequate decompression on postoperative imaging (P = .024). CONCLUSION Patients with severe clinical injury and large IMLL were more likely to have inadequate decompression on postoperative MRI/CT myelography. IOUS can serve as a supplement to postoperative MRI/CT myelography for the assessment of spinal cord decompression. However, further investigation, additional surgeon experience, and anticipation of prolonged swelling after surgery are required.

Abstract
In coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) era, neuroinflammation may develop due to neuronal tropism of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and/or associated immune activation, cytokine storm, and psychological stress. SARS-CoV-2 infection and linked cytokine storm may cause blood-brain barrier (BBB) injury through which activated immune cells and SARS-CoV-2 can pass into the brain causing activation of glial cells with subsequent neuroinflammation. Different therapeutic regimens were suggested to alleviate Covid-19-induced neuroinflammation. Since glibenclamide has anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects, it could be effective in mitigation of SARS-CoV-2 infection-induced neuroinflammation. Glibenclamide is a second-generation drug from the sulfonylurea family, which acts by inhibiting the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive K channel in the regulatory subunit of type 1 sulfonylurea receptor (SUR-1) in pancreatic β cells. Glibenclamide reduces neuroinflammation and associated BBB injury by inhibiting the nod-like receptor pyrin 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, oxidative stress, and microglial activation. Therefore, glibenclamide through inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome, microglial activation, and oxidative stress may attenuate SARS-CoV-2-mediated neuroinflammation.

Abstract
In the view of progressively aging human population and increased occurrence of dysmetabolic disorders, such as diabetes mellitus, cognitive impairment becomes a major threat to the national health. To date, the molecular mechanisms of cognitive dysfunction are partially described for diabetes and diseases of different nature, such as Alzheimer disease or Parkinson disease. The emergence of data pointing towards pleotropic effects of hypoglycaemic medicines indicates involvement of their targets in pathogenesis of cognitive impairment. We are aiming here to review available data on the most widely used hypoglycaemic drug, glibenclamide and find possible relationship of its targets to the pathogenesis of cognitive impairment.

Abstract
Acute ischemic stroke confers a high burden of morbidity and mortality globally. Occlusion of large vessels of the anterior circulation, namely the intracranial carotid artery and middle cerebral artery, can result in large hemispheric stroke in ~8% of these patients. Edema from stroke can result in a cascade effect leading to local compression of capillary perfusion, increased stroke burden, elevated intracranial pressure, herniation and death. Mortality from large hemispheric stroke is generally high and surgical intervention may reduce mortality and improve good outcomes in select patients. For those patients who are not eligible candidates for surgical decompression either due timing, medical co-morbidities, or patient and family preferences, the mainstay of medical management for cerebral edema is hyperosmolar therapy. Other neuroprotectants for cerebral edema such as glibenclamide are under investigation. This review will discuss current guidelines and evidence for medical management of cerebral edema in large hemispheric stroke as well as discuss important neuromonitoring and critical care management targeted at reducing morbidity and mortality for these patients.

Neuroprotective effects of Lasmiditan and Sumatriptan in an experimental model of post-stroke seizure in mice: Higher effects with concurrent opioid receptors or K ATP channels inhibitors. Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2022; 454:116254. [PMID: 36155770 DOI: 10.1016/j.taap.2022.116254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2022] [Revised: 08/29/2022] [Accepted: 09/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early post-stroke seizure frequently occurs in stroke survivors within the first few days and is associated with poor functional outcomes. Therefore, efficient treatments of such complications with less adverse effects are pivotal. In this study, we investigated the possible beneficial effects of lasmiditan and sumatriptan against post-stroke seizures in mice and explored underlying mechanisms in their effects. METHODS Stroke was induced by double ligation of the right common carotid artery in mice. Immediately after the ligation, lasmiditan (0.1 mg/kg, intraperitoneally [i.p.]) or sumatriptan (0.03 mg/kg, i.p.) were administered. Twenty-four hours after the stroke induction, seizure susceptibility was evaluated using the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced clonic seizure model. In separate experiments, naltrexone (a non-specific opioid receptor antagonist) and glibenclamide (a KATP channel blocker) were administered 15 min before lasmiditan or sumatriptan injection. To evaluate the underlying signaling pathways, ELISA analysis of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-1β) and western blot analysis of anti- and pro-apoptotic markers (Bcl-2 and Bax) were performed on mice isolated brain tissues. RESULTS Lasmiditan (0.1 mg/kg, i.p.) and sumatriptan (0.03 mg/kg, i.p.) remarkably decreased seizure susceptibility in stroke animals by reducing inflammatory cytokines and neuronal apoptosis. Concurrent administration of naltrexone (10 mg/kg, i.p.) or glibenclamide (0.3 mg/kg, i.p.) with lasmiditan or sumatriptan resulted in a higher neuroprotection against clonic seizures and efficiently reduced the inflammatory and apoptotic markers. CONCLUSION Lasmiditan and sumatriptan significantly increased post-stroke seizure thresholds in mice by suppressing inflammatory cytokines and neuronal apoptosis. Lasmiditan and sumatriptan seem to exert higher effects on seizure threshold with concurrent administration of the opioid receptors or KATP channels modulators.

Abstract
The spinal cord is a conduit within the central nervous system (CNS) that provides ongoing communication between the brain and the rest of the body, conveying complex sensory and motor information necessary for safety, movement, reflexes, and optimization of autonomic function. After a spinal cord injury (SCI), supraspinal influences on the spinal segmental control system and autonomic nervous system (ANS) are disrupted, leading to spastic paralysis, pain and dysesthesia, sympathetic blunting and parasympathetic dominance resulting in cardiac dysrhythmias, systemic hypotension, bronchoconstriction, copious respiratory secretions and uncontrolled bowel, bladder, and sexual dysfunction. This article outlines the pathophysiology of traumatic SCI, current and emerging methods of classification, and its influence on sensory/motor function, and introduces the probable comorbidities associated with SCI that will be discussed in more detail in the accompanying manuscripts of this special issue.

Abstract
Glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity is an important mechanism leading to post ischemic stroke damage. After acute stroke, the sudden reduction in cerebral blood flow is most initially followed by ion transport protein dysfunction and disruption of ion homeostasis, which in turn leads to impaired glutamate release, reuptake, and excessive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) activation, promoting neuronal death. Despite extensive evidence from preclinical studies suggesting that excessive NMDAR stimulation during ischemic stroke is a central step in post-stroke damage, NMDAR blockers have failed to translate into clinical stroke treatment. Current treatment options for stroke are very limited, and there is therefore a great need to develop new targets for neuroprotective therapeutic agents in ischemic stroke to extend the therapeutic time window. In this review, we highlight recent findings on glutamate release, reuptake mechanisms, NMDAR and its downstream cellular signaling pathways in post-ischemic stroke damage, and review the pathological changes in each link to help develop viable new therapeutic targets. We then also summarize potential neuroprotective drugs and therapeutic approaches for these new targets in the treatment of ischemic stroke.

Biological and Molecular Docking Evaluation of a Benzylisothiocyanate Semisynthetic Derivative From Moringa oleifera in a Pre-clinical Study of Temporomandibular Joint Pain. Front Neurosci 2022; 16:742239. [PMID: 35546897 PMCID: PMC9083263 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.742239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2021] [Accepted: 03/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Moringa oleifera possesses multiple biological effects and the 4-[(4′-O-acetyl-α-L- rhamnosyloxy) benzyl] isothiocyanate accounts for them. Based on the original isothiocyanate molecule we obtained a semisynthetic derivative, named 4-[(2′,3′,4′-O-triacetyl-α-L-rhamnosyloxy) N-benzyl] hydrazine carbothioamide (MC-H) which was safe and effective in a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) inflammatory hypernociception in rats. Therefore, considering that there is still a gap in the knowledge concerning the mechanisms of action through which the MC-H effects are mediated, this study aimed to investigate the involvement of the adhesion molecules (ICAM-1, CD55), the pathways heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and NO/cGMP/PKG/K+ATP, and the central opioid receptors in the efficacy of the MC-H in a pre-clinical study of TMJ pain. Methods Molecular docking studies were performed to test the binding performance of MC-H against the ten targets of interest (ICAM-1, CD55, HO-1, iNOS, soluble cGMP, cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG), K+ATP channel, mu (μ), kappa (κ), and delta (δ) opioid receptors). In in vivo studies, male Wistar rats were treated with MC-H 1 μg/kg before TMJ formalin injection and nociception was evaluated. Periarticular tissues were removed to assess ICAM-1 and CD55 protein levels by Western blotting. To investigate the role of HO-1 and NO/cGMP/PKG/K+ATP pathways, the inhibitors ZnPP-IX, aminoguanidine, ODQ, KT5823, or glibenclamide were used. To study the involvement of opioid receptors, rats were pre-treated (15 min) with an intrathecal injection of non-selective inhibitor naloxone or with CTOP, naltrindole, or norbinaltorphimine. Results All interactions presented acceptable binding energy values (below −6.0 kcal/mol) which suggest MC-H might strongly bind to its molecular targets. MC-H reduced the protein levels of ICAM-1 and CD55 in periarticular tissues. ZnPP-IX, naloxone, CTOP, and naltrindole reversed the antinociceptive effect of MC-H. Conclusion MC-H demonstrated antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects peripherally by the activation of the HO-1 pathway, as well as through inhibition of the protein levels of adhesion molecules, and centrally by μ and δ opioid receptors.

Abstract
The impact of peripheral nerve damage on a patient's quality of life is severe. The most frequent peripheral nerve crush damage is a sciatic nerve injury. Previous research has shown that glibenclamide (GB) has neuroprotective properties in a variety of oxidative stress-related disorders, including Alzheimer and Parkinson. The goal of this study was to see how GB affected nerve regeneration and improved function of the sciatic nerve in a rat model following a crush injury. We evaluated motor function, sensory recovery, gene expression, and histomorphometry following damage at different time points. Additionally, we assessed atrophy in the gastrocnemius muscle using histology and mass ratio analyses. Our results suggest that 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks following glibenclamide therapy, promotes the recovery of motor and sensory function in the injured site. Following glibenclamid injection, the mRNA levels of neurotrophic factors (NGF and BDNF) are raised. According to histomorphometry assessment, glibenclamide injection also increased the number of myelinated fibers while decreasing their thickness. These results showed that glibenclamide therapy by decreasing the proinflammatory and oxidant factors may enhance the nerve regeneration. It is clear that more research is needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Background: The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is formed by a high-density lining of endothelial cells, providing a border between circulating blood and the brain interstitial fluid. This structure plays a key role in protecting the brain microenvironment by restricting passage of certain molecules and circulating pathogens. Objective: To identify associations between brain volumetric changes and a set of 355 BBB-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP). Method: In a population of 721 unrelated individuals, linear mixed effect models were used to assess if specific variants were linked to regional rates of atrophy over a 12-year time span. Four brain regions were investigated, including cortical grey matter, cortical white matter, ventricle, and hippocampus. Further, we also investigated the potential impact of history of hypertension, diabetes, and the incidence of stroke on regional brain volume change. Results: History of hypertension, diabetes, and stroke was not associated with longitudinal brain volume change. However, we identified a series of genetic variants associated with regional brain volume changes. The associations were independent of variation due to the APOEɛ4 allele and were significant post correction for multiple comparisons. Conclusion: This study suggests that key genes involved in the regulation of BBB integrity may be associated with longitudinal changes in specific brain regions. The derived polygenic risk scores indicate that these interactions are multigenic. Further research needs to be conducted to investigate how BBB functions maybe compromised by genetic variation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sulfonylurea receptor-1 (Sur1) plays an important role in acute brain injury. We determine whether serum Sur1 concentrations are associated with traumatic severity and clinical outcome after traumatic brain injury (TBI). METHODS Serum Sur1 concentrations were measured in 100 healthy controls and 138 patients with moderate to severe TBI. Glasgow coma scale (GCS) and Rotterdam computed tomography (CT) classification were recorded to assess traumatic severity. Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) score of 1-3 at posttraumatic 3 months was defined as an unfavorable outcome. RESULTS Serum Sur1 concentrations were markedly higher in patients than in controls. Serum Sur1 concentrations of patients were highly correlated with GCS score, Rotterdam CT classification and GOS score. Patients with unfavorable outcome displayed markedly higher serum Sur1 concentrations than those presenting with favorable outcome. Under receiver operating characteristic curve, serum Sur1 concentrations significantly distinguished patients at risk of unfavorable outcome. Serum Sur1 emerged as an independent predictor for unfavorable outcome. CONCLUSIONS Rising serum Sur1 concentrations are highly correlated with traumatic severity and are independently associated with poor prognosis after TBI, indicating that serum Sur1 may have the potential to be a useful prognostic biomarker of TBI.

Abstract
Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. However, there is a lack of effective medications to speed up the recovery process. Ischemic stroke, as the result of cerebral infarction or cerebral artery narrowing, is accompanied by hemiplegia or impaired consciousness. There are many transcription factors involved in the development of this condition, whose alterations can influence or signal the prognostic outcomes of ischemic stroke. Among them, the augmented expression of specificity protein 1 (SP1) can participate in the progression of the disease by binding DNA to regulate the transcriptions of many genes. Different studies have provided different answers as to whether SP1 plays a positive or a negative role in ischemic stroke. On the one hand, SP1 can play a cytoprotective role as both an antioxidant and anti-apoptotic agent for neurons and glial cells. On the other hand, it can also damage neuronal cells by promoting inflammation and exacerbating brain edema. In this review, we highlight the roles of SP1 in ischemic stroke and shed light on the underlying mechanism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sulfonylurea receptor-1 (SUR1) is implicated in acute brain injury. This study was designed to determine relationship between serum SUR1 levels and severity, early neurologic deterioration (END) plus clinical outcome after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS Serum SUR1 levels of 131 ICH patients and 131 healthy controls were quantified in this prospective, observational study. END was defined as an increase of 4 or more points in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score or death within 24 hours after admission. Patients with a modified Rankin scale (mRS) score of 3-6 at 90 days following onset were considered to experience a poor outcome. RESULTS Serum SUR1 levels were substantially higher in patients than in controls. Serum SUR1 levels of patients were highly correlated with NIHSS score, Glasgow Coma Scale score, hematoma volume and ICH score. Compared with patients with END or mRS score of 0-2, other remainders had significantly elevated serum SUR1 levels. Serum SUR1 levels independently predicted END and 90-day poor outcome. Under receiver operating characteristic curve, serum SUR1 levels significantly predicted END and a poor outcome at 90 days after hemorrhagic stroke and its predictive value was similar to those of NIHSS score, Glasgow coma scale score, hematoma volume and ICH score. CONCLUSION Serum SUR1 levels are highly correlated with severity, END and poor outcome after hemorrhagic stroke, indicating that serum SUR1 may be useful for risk stratification and prognostic prediction of ICH.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) is a unique member of the TRPM protein family and, similarly to TRPM5, is Ca2+ sensitive and permeable for monovalent but not divalent cations. It is widely expressed in many organs and is involved in several functions; it regulates membrane potential and Ca2+ homeostasis in both excitable and non-excitable cells. This part of the review discusses the currently available knowledge about the physiological and pathophysiological roles of TRPM4 in various tissues. These include the physiological functions of TRPM4 in the cells of the Langerhans islets of the pancreas, in various immune functions, in the regulation of vascular tone, in respiratory and other neuronal activities, in chemosensation, and in renal and cardiac physiology. TRPM4 contributes to pathological conditions such as overactive bladder, endothelial dysfunction, various types of malignant diseases and central nervous system conditions including stroke and injuries as well as in cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, hypertrophy, and ischemia-reperfusion injuries. TRPM4 claims more and more attention and is likely to be the topic of research in the future.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has one of the worst prognoses among patients with stroke. Surgical measures have been adopted to relieve the mass effect of the hematoma, and developing targeted therapy against secondary brain injury (SBI) after ICH is equally essential. Numerous preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated that perihematomal edema (PHE) is a quantifiable marker of SBI after ICH and is associated with a poor prognosis. Thus, PHE has been considered a promising therapeutic target for ICH. However, the findings derived from existing studies on PHE are disparate and unclear. Therefore, it is necessary to classify, compare, and summarize the existing studies on PHE. In this review, we describe the growth characteristics and relevant underlying mechanism of PHE, analyze the contributions of different risk factors to PHE, present the potential impact of PHE on patient outcomes, and discuss the currently available therapeutic strategies.

Sulfonylurea Receptor 1 in Central Nervous System Injury: An Updated Review. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:11899.

Abstract
Sulfonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1) is a member of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) protein superfamily, encoded by Abcc8, and is recognized as a key mediator of central nervous system (CNS) cellular swelling via the transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) channel. Discovered approximately 20 years ago, this channel is normally absent in the CNS but is transcriptionally upregulated after CNS injury. A comprehensive review on the pathophysiology and role of SUR1 in the CNS was published in 2012. Since then, the breadth and depth of understanding of the involvement of this channel in secondary injury has undergone exponential growth: SUR1-TRPM4 inhibition has been shown to decrease cerebral edema and hemorrhage progression in multiple preclinical models as well as in early clinical studies across a range of CNS diseases including ischemic stroke, traumatic brain injury, cardiac arrest, subarachnoid hemorrhage, spinal cord injury, intracerebral hemorrhage, multiple sclerosis, encephalitis, neuromalignancies, pain, liver failure, status epilepticus, retinopathies and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder. Given these substantial developments, combined with the timeliness of ongoing clinical trials of SUR1 inhibition, now, another decade later, we review advances pertaining to SUR1-TRPM4 pathobiology in this spectrum of CNS disease-providing an overview of the journey from patch-clamp experiments to phase III trials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cerebral edema is a key contributor to death and disability in several forms of brain injury. Current treatment options are limited, reactive, and associated with significant morbidity. Targeted therapies are emerging based on a growing understanding of the molecular underpinnings of cerebral edema. AREAS COVERED We review the pathophysiology and relationships between different cerebral edema subtypes to provide a foundation for emerging therapies. Mechanisms for promising molecular targets are discussed, with an emphasis on those advancing in clinical trials, including ion and water channels (AQP4, SUR1-TRPM4) and other proteins/lipids involved in edema signaling pathways (AVP, COX2, VEGF, and S1P). Research on novel treatment modalities for cerebral edema [including recombinant proteins and gene therapies] is presented and finally, insights on reducing secondary injury and improving clinical outcome are offered. EXPERT OPINION Targeted molecular strategies to minimize or prevent cerebral edema are promising. Inhibition of SUR1-TRPM4 (glyburide/glibenclamide) and VEGF (bevacizumab) are currently closest to translation based on advances in clinical trials. However, the latter, tested in glioblastoma multiforme, has not demonstrated survival benefit. Research on recombinant proteins and gene therapies for cerebral edema is in its infancy, but early results are encouraging. These newer modalities may facilitate our understanding of the pathobiology underlying cerebral edema.

The effect of Glibenclamide on somatosensory evoked potentials after cardiac arrest in rats. Neurocrit Care 2021; 36:612-620. [PMID: 34599418 DOI: 10.1007/s12028-021-01350-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2021] [Accepted: 09/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Science continues to search for a neuroprotective drug therapy to improve outcomes after cardiac arrest (CA). The use of glibenclamide (GBC) has shown promise in preclinical studies, but its effects on neuroprognostication tools are not well understood. We aimed to investigate the effect of GBC on somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) waveform recovery post CA and how this relates to the early prediction of functional outcome, with close attention to arousal and somatosensory recovery, in a rodent model of CA. METHODS Sixteen male Wistar rats were subjected to 8-min asphyxia CA and assigned to GBC treatment (n = 8) or control (n = 8) groups. GBC was administered as a loading dose of 10 μg/kg intraperitoneally 10 min after the return of spontaneous circulation, followed by a maintenance dosage of 1.6 μg/kg every 8 h for 24 h. SSEPs were recorded from baseline until 150 min following CA. Coma recovery, arousal, and brainstem function, measured by subsets of the neurological deficit score (NDS), were compared between both groups. SSEP N10 amplitudes were compared between the two groups at 30, 60, 90, and 120 min post CA. RESULTS Rats treated with GBC had higher sub-NDS scores post CA, with improved arousal and brainstem function recovery (P = 0.007). Both groups showed a gradual improvement of SSEP N10 amplitude over time, from 30 to 120 min post CA. Rats treated with GBC showed significantly better SSEP recovery at every time point (P < 0.001 for 30, 60, and 90 min; P = 0.003 for 120 min). In the GBC group, the N10 amplitude recovered to baseline by 120 min post CA. Quantified Cresyl violet staining revealed a significantly greater percentage of damage in the control group compared with the GBC treatment group (P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS Glibenclamide improves coma recovery, arousal, and brainstem function after CA with decreased number of ischemic neurons in a rat model. GBC improves SSEP recovery post CA, with N10 amplitude reaching the baseline value by 120 min, suggesting early electrophysiologic recovery with this treatment. This medication warrants further exploration as a potential drug therapy to improve functional outcomes in patients after CA.

Abstract
Stroke is the destruction of brain function and structure, and is caused by either cerebrovascular obstruction or rupture. It is a disease associated with high mortality and disability worldwide. Brain edema after stroke is an important factor affecting neurologic function recovery. The glymphatic system is a recently discovered cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) transport system. Through the perivascular space and aquaporin 4 (AQP4) on astrocytes, it promotes the exchange of CSF and interstitial fluid (ISF), clears brain metabolic waste, and maintains the stability of the internal environment within the brain. Excessive accumulation of fluid in the brain tissue causes cerebral edema, but the glymphatic system plays an important role in the process of both intake and removal of fluid within the brain. The changes in the glymphatic system after stroke may be an important contributor to brain edema. Understanding and targeting the molecular mechanisms and the role of the glymphatic system in the formation and regression of brain edema after stroke could promote the exclusion of fluids in the brain tissue and promote the recovery of neurological function in stroke patients. In this review, we will discuss the physiology of the glymphatic system, as well as the related mechanisms and therapeutic targets involved in the formation of brain edema after stroke, which could provide a new direction for research against brain edema after stroke.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Intracerebral hemorrhage progression is associated with unfavorable outcome after traumatic brain injury (TBI). No effective treatments are currently available. This secondary injury process reflects an extreme form of vasogenic edema and blood-brain barrier breakdown. The sulfonylurea receptor 1-transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (SUR1-TRPM4) cation channel is a key underlying mechanism. A phase 2 trial of SUR1-TRPM4 inhibition in contusional TBI is ongoing, and a phase 3 trial is being designed. Targeted identification of patients at increased risk for hemorrhage progression may inform prognostication, trial design (including patient selection), and ultimately treatment response. OBJECTIVE To determine whether ABCC8 (SUR1) and TRPM4 genetic variability are associated with intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH) progression after severe TBI, based on the putative involvement of the SUR1-TRPM4 channel in this pathophysiology. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS In this genetic association study, DNA was extracted from 416 patients with severe TBI prospectively enrolled from a level I trauma academic medical center from May 9, 2002, to August 8, 2014. Forty ABCC8 and TRPM4 single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) were genotyped (multiplex, unbiased). Data were analyzed from January 7, 2020, to May 3, 2021. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary analyses addressed IPH progression at 6, 24, and 120 hours in patients without acute craniectomy (n = 321). Multivariable regressions and receiver operating characteristic curves assessed SNV and haplotype associations with progression. Spatial modeling and functional predictions were determined using standard software. RESULTS Of the 321 patients included in the analysis (mean [SD] age, 37.0 [16.3] years; 247 [76.9%] male), IPH progression occurred in 102. Four ABCC8 SNVs were associated with markedly increased odds of progression (rs2237982 [odds ratio (OR), 2.60-3.80; 95% CI, 1.14-5.90 to 1.80-8.02; P = .02 to P < .001], rs2283261 [OR, 3.37-4.77; 95% CI, 1.07-10.77 to 1.89-12.07; P = .04 to P = .001], rs3819521 [OR, 2.96-3.92; 95% CI, 1.13-7.75 to 1.42-10.87; P = .03 to P = .009], and rs8192695 [OR, 3.06-4.95; 95% CI, 1.02-9.12 to 1.67-14.68]; P = .03-.004). These are brain-specific expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) associated with increased ABCC8 messenger RNA levels. Regulatory annotations revealed promoter and enhancer marks and strong and/or active brain-tissue transcription, directionally consistent with increased progression. Three SNVs (rs2283261, rs2237982, and rs3819521) in this cohort have been associated with intracranial hypertension. Four TRPM4 SNVs were associated with decreased IPH progression (rs3760666 [OR, 0.40-0.49; 95% CI, 0.19-0.86 to 0.27-0.89; P = .02 to P = .009], rs1477363 [OR, 0.40-0.43; 95% CI, 0.18-0.88 to 0.23-0.81; P = .02 to P = .006], rs10410857 [OR, 0.36-0.41; 95% CI, 0.20-0.67 to 0.20-0.85; P = .02 to P = .001], and rs909010 [OR, 0.27-0.40; 95% CI, 0.12-0.62 to 0.16-0.58; P = .002 to P < .001]). Significant SNVs in both genes cluster downstream, flanking exons encoding the receptor site and SUR1-TRPM4 binding interface. Adding genetic variation to clinical models improved receiver operating characteristic curve performance from 0.6959 to 0.8030 (P = .003). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this genetic association study, 8 ABCC8 and TRPM4 SNVs were associated with IPH progression. Spatial clustering, brain-specific eQTL, and regulatory annotations suggest biological plausibility. These findings may have important implications for neurocritical care risk stratification, patient selection, and precision medicine, including an upcoming phase 3 trial design for SUR1-TRPM4 inhibition in severe TBI.

Abstract
Glibenclamide inhibits sulfonylurea receptor (SUR), which regulates several ion channels including SUR1-transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (SUR1-TRPM4) channel and ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel. Stroke upregulates SURl-TRPM4 channel, which causes a rapid edema formation and brain swelling. Glibenclamide may antagonize the formation of cerebral edema during stroke. Preclinical studies showed that glibenclamide inhibits KATP channel-induced vasodilation without altering the basal vascular tone. The in vivo human cerebrovascular effects of glibenclamide have not previously been investigated.In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-way cross-over study, we used advanced 3 T MRI methods to investigate the effects of glibenclamide and KATP channel opener levcromakalim on mean global cerebral blood flow (CBF) and intra- and extracranial artery circumferences in 15 healthy volunteers. Glibenclamide administration did not alter the mean global CBF and the basal vascular tone. Following levcromakalim infusion, we observed a 14% increase of the mean global CBF and an 8% increase of middle cerebral artery (MCA) circumference, and glibenclamide did not attenuate levcromakalim-induced vascular changes. Collectively, the findings demonstrate the vital role of KATP channels in cerebrovascular hemodynamic and indicate that glibenclamide does not inhibit the protective effects of KATP channel activation during hypoxia and ischemia-induced brain injury.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most debilitating of all the traumatic conditions that afflict individuals. For a number of years, extensive studies have been conducted to clarify the molecular mechanisms of SCI. Experimental and clinical studies have indicated that two phases, primary damage and secondary damage, are involved in SCI. The initial mechanical damage is caused by local impairment of the spinal cord. In addition, the fundamental mechanisms are associated with hyperflexion, hyperextension, axial loading and rotation. By contrast, secondary injury mechanisms are led by systemic and cellular factors, which may also be initiated by the primary injury. Although significant advances in supportive care have improved clinical outcomes in recent years, a number of studies continue to explore specific pharmacological therapies to minimize SCI. The present review summarized some important pathophysiologic mechanisms that are involved in SCI and focused on several pharmacological and non‑pharmacological therapies, which have either been previously investigated or have a potential in the management of this debilitating injury in the near future.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite the continuous improvement in modern medical treatment, stroke is still a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. How to effectively improve the survival rate and reduce disability in patients who had a stroke has become the focus of many investigations. Recent findings concerning the benefits of glibenclamide as a neuroprotective drug have initiated a new area for prospective studies on the effects of sulfonylureas. Given the high mortality and disability associated with stroke, it is essential to weigh the benefits of neuroprotective drugs against their safety. Therefore, the objective of the current study is to conduct a systematic review using meta-analysis to assess the benefits and safety of glibenclamide as a neuroprotective drug. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This study will analyse randomised clinical trials (RCTs) and observational studies published up to 31 December 2020 and include direct or indirect evidence. Studies will be retrieved by searching PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and WanFang Databases. The outcomes of this study will be mortality, scores from the Modified Rankin Scale and the occurrence of hypoglycaemic events. The risk of bias will be assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias assessment instrument for RCTs. A random-effect/fixed-effect model will be used to summarise the estimates of the mean difference/risk ratio using a 95% CI. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This meta-analysis is a secondary research project, which is based on previously published data. Therefore, ethical approval and informed consent were not required for this meta-analysis. The results of this study will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal for publication. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42020144674.

Abstract
Glibenclamide is a second-generation sulfonylurea used in the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The primary target of glibenclamide is ATP-sensitive potassium channels inhibition; however, other possible targets include the control of inflammation and blood-brain barrier permeability, which makes this compound potentially interesting for the management of brain-related disorders. Here, we showed that systemic treatment with glibenclamide (5 mg/kg, p.o., for 21 days) could prevent the behavioral despair and the cognitive dysfunction induced by chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) in mice. In nonhypoglycemic doses, glibenclamide attenuated the stress-induced weight loss, decreased adrenal weight, and prevented the increase in glucocorticoid receptors in the prefrontal cortex, suggesting an impact in hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis function. Additionally, we did not observe changes in Iba-1, NLRP3 and caspase-1 levels in the prefrontal cortex or hippocampus after CUS or glibenclamide treatment. Thus, this study suggests that chronic treatment with glibenclamide prevents the emotional and cognitive effects of chronic stress in female mice. On the other hand, the control of neuroinflammation and NLRP3 inflammasome pathway is not the major mechanism mediating these effects. The behavioral effects might be mediated, in part, by the normalization of glucocorticoid receptors and HPA axis.

Abstract
Arachidonic acids and its metabolites modulate plenty of ligand-gated, voltage-dependent ion channels, and metabolically regulated potassium channels including ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP). KATP channels are hetero-multimeric complexes of sulfonylureas receptors (SUR1, SUR2A or SUR2B) and the pore-forming subunits (Kir6.1 and Kir6.2) likewise expressed in the pre-post synapsis of neurons and inflammatory cells, thereby affecting their proliferation and activity. KATP channels are involved in amyloid-β (Aβ)-induced pathology, therefore emerging as therapeutic targets against Alzheimer's and related diseases. The modulation of these channels can represent an innovative strategy for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders; nevertheless, the currently available drugs are not selective for brain KATP channels and show contrasting effects. This phenomenon can be a consequence of the multiple physiological roles of the different varieties of KATP channels. Openings of cardiac and muscular KATP channel subunits, is protective against caspase-dependent atrophy in these tissues and some neurodegenerative disorders, whereas in some neuroinflammatory diseases benefits can be obtained through the inhibition of neuronal KATP channel subunits. For example, glibenclamide exerts an anti-inflammatory effect in respiratory, digestive, urological, and central nervous system (CNS) diseases, as well as in ischemia-reperfusion injury associated with abnormal SUR1-Trpm4/TNF-α or SUR1-Trpm4/ Nos2/ROS signaling. Despite this strategy is promising, glibenclamide may have limited clinical efficacy due to its unselective blocking action of SUR2A/B subunits also expressed in cardiovascular apparatus with pro-arrhythmic effects and SUR1 expressed in pancreatic beta cells with hypoglycemic risk. Alternatively, neuronal selective dual modulators showing agonist/antagonist actions on KATP channels can be an option.

Abstract
Glibenclamide (GLY) is the sixth drug tested by the Operation Brain Trauma Therapy (OBTT) consortium based on substantial pre-clinical evidence of benefit in traumatic brain injury (TBI). Adult Sprague-Dawley rats underwent fluid percussion injury (FPI; n = 45), controlled cortical impact (CCI; n = 30), or penetrating ballistic-like brain injury (PBBI; n = 36). Efficacy of GLY treatment (10-μg/kg intraperitoneal loading dose at 10 min post-injury, followed by a continuous 7-day subcutaneous infusion [0.2 μg/h]) on motor, cognitive, neuropathological, and biomarker outcomes was assessed across models. GLY improved motor outcome versus vehicle in FPI (cylinder task, p < 0.05) and CCI (beam balance, p < 0.05; beam walk, p < 0.05). In FPI, GLY did not benefit any other outcome, whereas in CCI, it reduced 21-day lesion volume versus vehicle (p < 0.05). On Morris water maze testing in CCI, GLY worsened performance on hidden platform latency testing versus sham (p < 0.05), but not versus TBI vehicle. In PBBI, GLY did not improve any outcome. Blood levels of glial fibrillary acidic protein and ubiquitin carboxyl terminal hydrolase-1 at 24 h did not show significant treatment-induced changes. In summary, GLY showed the greatest benefit in CCI, with positive effects on motor and neuropathological outcomes. GLY is the second-highest-scoring agent overall tested by OBTT and the only drug to reduce lesion volume after CCI. Our findings suggest that leveraging the use of a TBI model-based phenotype to guide treatment (i.e., GLY in contusion) might represent a strategic choice to accelerate drug development in clinical trials and, ultimately, achieve precision medicine in TBI.

Abstract
Successful treatment of HIV-infected patients with combinational antiretroviral therapies (cART) can now prolong patients' lives to nearly normal life spans. However, the new challenge faced by many of those HIV-infected patients is chronic neuroinflammation and neurotoxicity that often leads to HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). However, the mechanism of neuropathogenesis underlying HAND, especially in those who are under cART, is not well understood. HAND is typically characterized by HIV-mediated glial neuroinflammation and neurotoxicity. However, the severity of HAND does not always correlate with HIV-1 viral load but, rather, with the extent of glial activation, suggesting that other HIV-associated factors might contribute to HAND. HIV-1 viral protein R (Vpr) could be one of those viral factors because of its association with neuroinflammation and neurotoxicity. The objective of this study was to delineate the specific roles of HIV-1 infection and Vpr in the activation of neuroinflammation and neurotoxicity, and the possible relationships with the Sur1-Trpm4 channel that contributes to neuroinflammation and neuronal death. Here, we show that HIV-1 expression correlates with activation of proinflammatory markers (TLR4, TNF-α, and NF-κB) and the Sur1-Trpm4 channel in astrocytes of HIV-infected postmortem human and transgenic Tg26 mouse brain tissues. We further show that Vpr alone activates the same set of proinflammatory markers and Sur1 in a glioblastoma SNB19 cell line that is accompanied by apoptosis. The Sur1 inhibitor glibenclamide significantly reduced Vpr-induced apoptosis. Together, our data suggest that HIV-1 Vpr-induced proinflammatory response and apoptosis are mediated at least in part through the Sur1-Trpm4 channel in astrocytes.IMPORTANCE Effective antiretroviral therapies can now prolong patients' lives to nearly normal life span. The current challenge faced by many HIV-infected patients is chronic neuroinflammation and neurotoxicity that contributes to HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). We show here that the expression of HIV-1 infection and Vpr correlates with the activation of proinflammatory markers (Toll-like receptor 4 [TLR4], tumor necrosis factor alpha [TNF-α], and NF-κB) and the sulfonylurea receptor 1 (Sur1)-transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (Trpm4) channel in astrocytes of brain tissues. We further show that an FDA-approved Sur1 inhibitory drug called glibenclamide significantly ameliorates apoptotic astrocytic cell death caused by HIV-1 Vpr, which could potentially open the possibility of repurposing glibenclamide for treating HAND.

Abstract
AbstractCerebral edema is a condition where an excess of cerebral water accumulates due to primary neurological or non-neurological causes. Cerebral edema complicates many brain pathologies causing additional injury often in excess of the original neurological insult. Classic descriptions divide cerebral edema into cytotoxic, vasogenic, interstitial, and osmotic subtypes. The interplay of different mechanisms is important in the clinical manifestations. Recent research has advanced our understanding of the molecular pathophysiology of cerebral edema, exposing the central role of aquaporins and specific ion channels. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the molecular pathophysiology of cerebral edema including unique disease specific mechanisms.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains a significant leading cause of death and disability among adults and children globally. To date, there are no Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs that can substantially attenuate the sequelae of TBI. The innumerable challenges faced by the conventional de novo discovery of new pharmacological agents led to the emergence of alternative paradigm, which is drug repurposing. Repurposing of existing drugs with well-characterized mechanisms of action and human safety profiles is believed to be a promising strategy for novel drug use. Compared to the conventional discovery pathways, drug repurposing is less costly, relatively rapid, and poses minimal risk of the adverse outcomes to study on participants. In recent years, drug repurposing has covered a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases and neurological disorders including brain injury. This review highlights the advances in drug repurposing and presents some of the promising candidate drugs for potential TBI treatment along with their possible mechanisms of neuroprotection. Edaravone, glyburide, ceftriaxone, levetiracetam, and progesterone have been selected due to their potential role as putative TBI neurotherapeutic agents. These drugs are Food and Drug Administration-approved for purposes other than brain injuries; however, preclinical and clinical studies have shown their efficacy in ameliorating the various detrimental outcomes of TBI.

Abstract
Cerebral edema is a pathological hallmark of various central nervous system (CNS) insults, including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and excitotoxic injury such as stroke. Due to the rigidity of the skull, edema-induced increase of intracranial fluid significantly complicates severe CNS injuries by raising intracranial pressure and compromising perfusion. Mortality due to cerebral edema is high. With mortality rates up to 80% in severe cases of stroke, it is the leading cause of death within the first week. Similarly, cerebral edema is devastating for patients of TBI, accounting for up to 50% mortality. Currently, the available treatments for cerebral edema include hypothermia, osmotherapy, and surgery. However, these treatments only address the symptoms and often elicit adverse side effects, potentially in part due to non-specificity. There is an urgent need to identify effective pharmacological treatments for cerebral edema. Currently, ion channels represent the third-largest target class for drug development, but their roles in cerebral edema remain ill-defined. The present review aims to provide an overview of the proposed roles of ion channels and transporters (including aquaporins, SUR1-TRPM4, chloride channels, glucose transporters, and proton-sensitive channels) in mediating cerebral edema in acute ischemic stroke and TBI. We also focus on the pharmacological inhibitors for each target and potential therapeutic strategies that may be further pursued for the treatment of cerebral edema.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a debilitating neurologic condition with tremendous socioeconomic impact on affected individuals and the health care system. The treatment of SCI principally includes surgical treatment and marginal pharmacologic and rehabilitation therapies targeting secondary events with minor clinical improvements. This unsuccessful result mainly reflects the complexity of SCI pathophysiology and the diverse biochemical and physiologic changes that occur in the injured spinal cord. Once the nervous system is injured, cascades of cellular and molecular events are triggered at varying times. Although the cascade of tissue reactions and cell injury develops over a period of days or weeks, the most extensive cell death in SCI occurs within hours of trauma. This situation suggests that early intervention is likely to be the most promising approach to rescue the cord from further and irreversible cell damage. Over the past decades, a wealth of research has been conducted in preclinical and clinical studies with the hope to find new therapeutic strategies. Researchers have identified several targets for the development of potential therapeutic interventions (e.g., neuroprotection, replacement of cells lost, removal of inhibitory molecules, regeneration, and rehabilitation strategies to induce neuroplasticity). Most of these treatments have passed preclinical and initial clinical evaluations but have failed to be strongly conclusive in the clinical setting. This narrative review provides an update of the many therapeutic interventions after SCI, with an emphasis on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and aneurysm rebleeding contribute to morbidity and mortality in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH); however, the relationship between their impacts on overall functional outcome is incompletely understood. METHODS The authors conducted a cohort study of all aSAH during the study period from 2001 to 2016. Primary end points were overall functional outcome and ischemic aSAH sequelae, defined as delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), DCI with infarction, symptomatic vasospasm (SV), and global cerebral edema (GCE). Outcomes were compared between the rebleed and nonrebleed cohorts overall and after propensity-score matching (PSM) for risk factors and treatment modality. Univariate and multivariate ordered logistic regression analyses for functional outcomes were performed in the PSM cohort to identify predictors of poor outcome. RESULTS Four hundred fifty-five aSAH cases admitted within 24 hours of aneurysm rupture were included, of which 411 (90%) experienced initial aneurysm ruptures only, while 44 (10%) had clinically confirmed rebleeding. In the overall cohort, rebleeding was associated with significantly worse functional outcome, longer intensive care unit length of stay (LOS), and GCE (all p < 0.01); treatment modality, overall LOS, DCI, DCI with infarction, and SV were nonsignificant. In the PSM analysis of 43 matched rebleed and 43 matched nonrebleed cases, only poor functional outcome and GCE remained significantly associated with rebleeding (p < 0.01 and p = 0.02, respectively). Multivariate regression identified that both rebleeding (HR 21.5, p < 0.01) and DCI (HR 10.1, p = 0.01) independently predicted poor functional outcome. CONCLUSIONS Rebleeding and DCI after aSAH are highly morbid and potentially deadly events after aSAH, which appear to have independent negative impacts on overall functional outcome. Early rebleeding did not significantly affect the risk of delayed ischemic complications.

Abstract
The perinatal period represents a time of great vulnerability for the developing brain. A variety of injuries can result in death or devastating injury causing profound neurocognitive deficits. Hypoxic-ischemic neonatal encephalopathy (HIE) remains the leading cause of brain injury in term infants during the perinatal period with limited options available to aid in recovery. It can result in long-term devastating consequences with neurologic complications varying from mild behavioral deficits to severe seizure, intellectual disability, and/or cerebral palsy in the newborn. Despite medical advances, the only viable option is therapeutic hypothermia which is classified as the gold standard but is not used, or may not be as effective in preterm cases, infection-associated cases or low resource settings. Therefore, alternatives or adjunct therapies are urgently needed. Ongoing research continues to advance our understanding of the mechanisms contributing to perinatal brain injury and identify new targets and treatments. Drugs used for the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have demonstrated neuroprotective properties and therapeutic efficacy from neurological sequelae following HIE insults in preclinical models, both alone, or in combination with induced hypothermia. In this short review, we have focused on recent findings on the use of diabetes drugs that provide a neuroprotective effect using in vitro and in vivo models of HIE that could be considered for clinical translation as a promising treatment.

Abstract
Cerebral edema is a clinical problem that frequently follows ischemic infarcts. Sulfonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1) is an inducible protein that can form a heteromultimeric complex with aquaporin 4 (AQP4) that mediate the ion/water transport involved in brain tissue swelling. Transcription of the Abcc8 gene coding for SUR1 depends on the activity of transcriptional factor SP1, which is modulated by the cellular redox environment. Since oxidative stress is implicated in the induced neuronal damage in ischemia and edema formation, the present study aimed to evaluate if the antioxidant resveratrol (RSV) prevents the damage by reducing the de novo expression of SUR1 in the ischemic brain. Male Wistar rats were subjected to 2 h of middle cerebral artery occlusion followed by different times of reperfusion. RSV (1.9 mg/kg; i.v.) was administered at the onset of reperfusion. Brain damage and edema formation were recognized by neurological evaluation, time of survival, TTC (2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride) staining, Evans blue extravasation, and water content. RSV mechanism of action was studied by SP1 binding activity measured through the Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay, and Abcc8 and Aqp4 gene expression evaluated by qPCR, immunofluorescence, and Western blot. We found that RSV reduced the infarct area and cerebral edema, prevented blood-brain barrier damage, improved neurological performance, and increased survival. Additionally, our findings suggest that the antioxidant activity of RSV targeted SP transcription factors and inhibited SUR1 and AQP4 expression. Thus, RSV by decreasing SUR1 expression could contribute to reducing edema formation, constituting a therapeutic alternative for edema reduction in stroke.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration often result from the aberrant deposition of aggregated host proteins, including amyloid‐β, α‐synuclein, and prions, that can activate inflammasomes. Inflammasomes function as intracellular sensors of both microbial pathogens and foreign as well as host‐derived danger signals. Upon activation, they induce an innate immune response by secreting the inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)‐1β and IL‐18, and additionally by inducing pyroptosis, a lytic cell death mode that releases additional inflammatory mediators. Microglia are the prominent innate immune cells in the brain for inflammasome activation. However, additional CNS‐resident cell types including astrocytes and neurons, as well as infiltrating myeloid cells from the periphery, express and activate inflammasomes. In this review, we will discuss current understanding of the role of inflammasomes in common degenerative diseases of the brain and highlight inflammasome‐targeted strategies that may potentially treat these diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine whether glyburide inhibits bone destruction caused by traumatic occlusion in a rat occlusal trauma model. BACKGROUND Excessive mechanical stress, such as traumatic occlusion, induces expression of IL-1β and may be involved in bone resorption. NLRP3 inflammasomes have been linked to IL-1β expression, but it is currently unclear whether glyburide, the inhibiter of NLRP3 inflammasome, suppresses occlusal trauma in rats. METHODS Male SD rats aged 7 weeks were used. In the trauma group, the occlusal surface of the maxillary first right molar was raised by attaching a metal wire to apply occlusal trauma to the mandibular first right molar. In the trauma + glyburide group, the NLRP3 inhibitor glyburide was administered orally every 24 hours from 1 day before induction of occlusal trauma. Rats were euthanized after 5 or 10 days, and the maxillary first molars were harvested with the adjacent tissues for histopathological investigation. Immunohistochemical expression of IL-1β, NLRP3, and RANKL was also assessed. RESULTS On day 5, bone resorption was significantly greater in the trauma group compared with the control group or the trauma + glyburide group, and there were significantly higher numbers of osteoclasts and cells positive for IL-1β, NLRP3, and RANKL in the trauma group. CONCLUSION In this study, glyburide inhibits bone resorption by traumatic occlusion in rats. It suggests that the NLRP3/IL-1β pathway might be associated with bone resorption induced by traumatic occlusion.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purposes of this narrative review are to (1) summarize a contemporary view of cerebral edema pathophysiology, (2) present a synopsis of current management strategies in the context of their historical roots (many of which date back multiple centuries), and (3) discuss contributions of key molecular pathways to overlapping edema endophenotypes. This may facilitate identification of important therapeutic targets. RECENT FINDINGS Cerebral edema and resultant intracranial hypertension are major contributors to morbidity and mortality following traumatic brain injury. Although Starling forces are physical drivers of edema based on differences in intravascular vs extracellular hydrostatic and oncotic pressures, the molecular pathophysiology underlying cerebral edema is complex and remains incompletely understood. Current management protocols are guided by intracranial pressure measurements, an imperfect proxy for cerebral edema. These include decompressive craniectomy, external ventricular drainage, hyperosmolar therapy, hypothermia, and sedation. Results of contemporary clinical trials assessing these treatments are summarized, with an emphasis on the gap between intermediate measures of edema and meaningful clinical outcomes. This is followed by a brief statement summarizing the most recent guidelines from the Brain Trauma Foundation (4th edition). While many molecular mechanisms and networks contributing to cerebral edema after TBI are still being elucidated, we highlight some promising molecular mechanism-based targets based on recent research including SUR1-TRPM4, NKCC1, AQP4, and AVP1. SUMMARY This review outlines the origins of our understanding of cerebral edema, chronicles the history behind many current treatment approaches, and discusses promising molecular mechanism-based targeted treatments.

Abstract
Cerebral edema and contusion expansion are major determinants of morbidity and mortality after TBI. Current treatment options are reactive, suboptimal and associated with significant side effects. First discovered in models of focal cerebral ischemia, there is increasing evidence that the sulfonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1)-Transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) channel plays a key role in these critical secondary injury processes after TBI. Targeted SUR1-TRPM4 channel inhibition with glibenclamide has been shown to reduce edema and progression of hemorrhage, particularly in preclinical models of contusional TBI. Results from small clinical trials evaluating glibenclamide in TBI have been encouraging. A Phase-2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of intravenous glibenclamide (BIIB093) in brain contusion is actively enrolling subjects. In this comprehensive narrative review, we summarize the molecular basis of SUR1-TRPM4 related pathology and discuss TBI-specific expression patterns, biomarker potential, genetic variation, preclinical experiments, and clinical studies evaluating the utility of treatment with glibenclamide in this disease.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a potent upstream event in the molecular pathophysiology which gives rise to various diabetes-related complications. There are several classes of anti-diabetic medications that have been developed to normalize blood glucose concentrations through a variety of molecular mechanisms. Beyond glucose-lowering effects, these agents may also provide further therapeutic potential. For instance, there is a high incidence of diabetes-induced neuronal disorders among patients with diabetes, who may also develop neurodegenerative and psychological complications. If anti-diabetic agents can modify the molecular mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of neuronal comorbidities, this could potentially be translated to reducing the risk of other neurological conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, depression, memory deficits and cognition impairments among patients with diabetes. This review aimed to shed light on some of the potentially beneficial aspects of anti-diabetic agents in lowering the risk or treating neuronal disorders by reviewing the molecular mechanisms by which these agents can potentially modulate neuronal behaviors.

Abstract
Introduction Levcromakalim opens ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP channel) and induces head pain in healthy volunteers and migraine headache in migraine patients, but no pain in other parts of the body. KATP channels are expressed in C- and Aδ-fibers, and these channels might directly activate nociceptors and thereby evoke pain in humans. Methods To assess the local effect of KATP channel opening in trigeminal and extra-trigeminal regions, we performed a crossover, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in healthy volunteers. Participants received intradermal and intramuscular injections of levcromakalim and placebo in the forehead and the forearms. Results Intradermal and intramuscular injections of levcromakalim did not evoke more pain compared to placebo in the forehead ( p > 0.05) and the forearms ( p > 0.05). Intradermal injection of levcromakalim caused more flare ( p < 0.001 ), skin temperature increase ( p < 0.001), and skin blood flow increase ( p < 0.001) compared to placebo in the forehead and the forearms. Conclusion These findings suggest that it is unlikely that levcromakalim induces head pain by direct activation of peripheral neurons.

Neuropharmacology 2019; 162:107845.

Abstract
Glibenclamide protects against ischemic injury in both preclinical and clinical studies, presumably by blocking the de novo assembled sulfonylurea receptor 1-transient receptor potential M4 (Sur1-Trpm4) channel induced by ischemia. However, glibenclamide may cause unexpected serious hypoglycemia. Here, we tested whether glimepiride, another sulfonylurea with better safety, has comparable efficacy with glibenclamide and whether gene deletion of Trpm4 (Trpm4-/-) exerts similar effect. Wild-type (WT) mice subjected to temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) were randomized to receive glibenclamide (an initial dose of 10 μg/kg and additional doses of 1.2 μg every 8 h), three different doses of glimepiride (10 μg/kg, 100 μg/kg and 1 mg/kg) or vehicle after ischemia, while tMCAO-treated Trpm4-/- mice were randomized to receive vehicle or glimepiride. Neurological function, infarct volume, edema formation, the integrity of blood-brain barrier and inflammatory reaction were evaluated at 24 h after ischemia. In tMCAO-treated WT mice, 10 μg/kg and 100 μg/kg glimepiride had comparable efficacy with glibenclamide in improving longa score and grip test score, reducing infarct volume, mitigating brain edema, lessening extravasation of Evans blue dye and IgG, restoring tight junction protein expression as well as suppressing inflammatory cytokines. Compared with WT mice, Trpm4-/- mice showed less neurological deficit, smaller cerebral infarction, lighter brain edema and more integrity of blood-brain barrier. As expected, glimepiride did not provide additional neuroprotection compared with vehicle in the tMCAO-treated Trpm4-/- mice. Glimepiride shows comparable efficacy with glibenclamide in alleviating brain injury after ischemic stroke in mice, possibly via targeting the Sur1-Trpm4 channel.
