[PMID: 38001353 DOI: 10.1007/s12975-023-01216-7] [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: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023]
Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage is a highly prevalent and prognostically poor disease, imposing immeasurable harm on human life and health. However, the treatment options for intracerebral hemorrhage are severely limited, particularly in terms of improving the microenvironment of the lesion, promoting neuronal cell survival, and enhancing neural function. This review comprehensively discussed the application of stem cell therapy for intracerebral hemorrhage, providing a systematic summary of its developmental history, types of transplants, transplantation routes, and transplantation timing. Moreover, this review presented the latest research progress in enhancing the efficacy of stem cell transplantation, including pretransplantation preconditioning, genetic modification, combined therapy, and other diverse strategies. Furthermore, this review pioneeringly elaborated on the barriers to clinical translation for stem cell therapy. These discussions were of significant importance for promoting stem cell therapy for intracerebral hemorrhage, facilitating its clinical translation, and improving patient prognosis.

Targeted drug delivery to the brain endothelium dominates over passive delivery via vascular leak in experimental intracerebral hemorrhage. J Control Release 2023; 356:185-195. [PMID: 36868517 PMCID: PMC10519578 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2023.02.037] [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: 08/25/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023]
Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the most common causes of fatal stroke, yet has no specific drug therapies. Many attempts at passive intravenous (IV) delivery in ICH have failed to deliver drugs to the salvageable area around the hemorrhage. The passive delivery method assumes vascular leak through the ruptured blood-brain barrier will allow drug accumulation in the brain. Here we tested this assumption using intrastriatal injection of collagenase, a well-established experimental model of ICH. Fitting with hematoma expansion in clinical ICH, we showed that collagenase-induced blood leak drops significantly by 4 h after ICH onset and is gone by 24 h. We observed passive-leak brain accumulation also declines rapidly over ∼4 h for 3 model IV therapeutics (non-targeted IgG; a protein therapeutic; PEGylated nanoparticles). We compared these passive leak results with targeted brain delivery by IV monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that actively bind vascular endothelium (anti-VCAM, anti-PECAM, anti-ICAM). Even at early time points after ICH induction, where there is high vascular leak, brain accumulation via passive leak is dwarfed by brain accumulation of endothelial-targeted agents: At 4 h after injury, anti-PECAM mAbs accumulate at 8-fold higher levels in the brain vs. non-immune IgG; anti-VCAM nanoparticles (NPs) deliver a protein therapeutic (superoxide dismutase, SOD) at 4.5-fold higher levels than the carrier-free therapeutic at 24 h after injury. These data suggest that relying on passive vascular leak provides inefficient delivery of therapeutics even at early time points after ICH, and that a better strategy might be targeted delivery to the brain endothelium, which serves as the gateway for the immune attack on the peri-hemorrhage inflamed brain region.

A redox-reactive delivery system via neural stem cell nanoencapsulation enhances white matter regeneration in intracerebral hemorrhage mice. Bioeng Transl Med 2023; 8:e10451.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) poses a great threat to human health because of its high mortality and morbidity. Neural stem cell (NSC) transplantation is promising for treating white matter injury following ICH to promote functional recovery. However, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced NSC apoptosis and uncontrolled differentiation hindered the effectiveness of the therapy. Herein, we developed a single-cell nanogel system by layer-by-layer (LbL) hydrogen bonding of gelatin and tannic acid (TA), which was modified with a boronic ester-based compound linking triiodothyronine (T3). In vitro, NSCs in nanogel were protected from ROS-induced apoptosis, with apoptotic signaling pathways downregulated. This process of ROS elimination by material shell synergistically triggered T3 release to induce NSC differentiation into oligodendrocytes. Furthermore, in animal studies, ICH mice receiving nanogels performed better in behavioral evaluation, neurological scaling, and open field tests. These animals exhibited enhanced differentiation of NSCs into oligodendrocytes and promoted white matter tract regeneration on Day 21 through activation of the αvβ3/PI3K/THRA pathway. Consequently, transplantation of LbL(T3) nanogels largely resolved two obstacles in NSC therapy synergistically: low survival and uncontrolled differentiation, enhancing white matter regeneration and behavioral performance of ICH mice. As expected, nanoencapsulation with synergistic effects would efficiently provide hosts with various biological benefits and minimize the difficulty in material fabrication, inspiring next-generation material design for tackling complicated pathological conditions.

The Role of Copper Homeostasis in Brain Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232213850.

Abstract
In the human body, copper is an important trace element and is a cofactor for several important enzymes involved in energy production, iron metabolism, neuropeptide activation, connective tissue synthesis, and neurotransmitter synthesis. Copper is also necessary for cellular processes, such as the regulation of intracellular signal transduction, catecholamine balance, myelination of neurons, and efficient synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. Copper is naturally present in some foods and is available as a dietary supplement. Only small amounts of copper are typically stored in the body and a large amount of copper is excreted through bile and urine. Given the critical role of copper in a breadth of cellular processes, local concentrations of copper and the cellular distribution of copper transporter proteins in the brain are important to maintain the steady state of the internal environment. The dysfunction of copper metabolism or regulatory pathways results in an imbalance in copper homeostasis in the brain, which can lead to a myriad of acute and chronic pathological effects on neurological function. It suggests a unique mechanism linking copper homeostasis and neuronal activation within the central nervous system. This article explores the relationship between impaired copper homeostasis and neuropathophysiological progress in brain diseases.

Abstract
Non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage is a highly destructive intracranial disease with high mortality and morbidity rates. The main risk factors for cerebral hemorrhage include hypertension, amyloidosis, vasculitis, drug abuse, coagulation dysfunction, and genetic factors. Clinically, surviving patients with intracerebral hemorrhage exhibit different degrees of neurological deficits after discharge. In recent years, with the development of regenerative medicine, an increasing number of researchers have begun to pay attention to stem cell and exosome therapy as a new method for the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage, owing to their intrinsic potential in neuroprotection and neurorestoration. Many animal studies have shown that stem cells can directly or indirectly participate in the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage through regeneration, differentiation, or secretion. However, considering the uncertainty of its safety and efficacy, clinical studies are still lacking. This article reviews the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage using stem cells and exosomes from both preclinical and clinical studies and summarizes the possible mechanisms of stem cell therapy. This review aims to provide a reference for future research and new strategies for clinical treatment.

Abstract
Although technological advances and clinical studies on stem cells have been increasingly reported in stroke, research targeting hemorrhagic stroke is still lacking compared to that targeting ischemic stroke. Studies on hemorrhagic stroke are also being conducted, mainly in the USA and China. However, little research has been conducted in Korea. In reality, stem cell research or treatment is unfamiliar to many domestic neurosurgeons. Nevertheless, given the increased interest in regenerative medicine and the increase of life expectancy, attention should be paid to this topic. In this paper, we summarized pre-clinical rodent studies and clinical trials using stem cells for hemorrhagic stroke. In addition, we discussed results of domestic investigations and future perspectives on stem cell research for a better understanding.

Abstract
Background Microglia plays a vital role in neuroinflammation, contributing to the pathogenesis of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)-induced brain injury. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great potential for treating ICH. We previously revealed that MSCs ameliorate the microglial pyroptosis caused by an ischemic stroke. However, whether MSCs can modulate microglial pyroptosis after ICH remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effects of hypoxia-preconditioned olfactory mucosa MSCs (OM-MSCs) on ICH and the possible mechanisms. Methods ICH was induced in mice via administration of collagenase IV. At 6 h post-ICH, 2-4×105 normoxic/hypoxic OM-MSCs or saline were intracerebrally administered. To evaluate the neuroprotective effects, the behavioral outcome, apoptosis, and neuronal injury were measured. Microglia activation and pro-inflammatory cytokines were applied to detect neuroinflammation. Microglial pyroptosis was determined by western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results The two OM-MSC-transplanted groups exhibited significantly improved functional recovery and reduced neuronal injury, especially the hypoxic OM-MSCs group. Hypoxic OM-MSCs attenuated microglial activation as well as the levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Moreover, we found that hypoxia-preconditioned OM-MSCs ameliorated pyroptosis by diminishing the levels of pyroptosis-associated proteins in peri-hematoma brain tissues, decreasing the expression of the microglial nod-like receptor family protein 3 (NLRP3) and caspase-1, and reducing the membrane pores on microglia post-ICH. Conclusions Our study showed that hypoxic preconditioning augments the therapeutic efficacy of OM-MSCs, and hypoxia-preconditioned OM-MSCs alleviate microglial pyroptosis in the ICH model.

Abstract
Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) causes, besides the primary brain injury, a secondary brain injury (SBI), which is induced, amongst other things, by oxidative stress (OS) and inflammation, determining the patient’s outcome. This study aims to assess the impact of OS in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) on clinical outcomes in patients with ICH. A total of 19 ICH (volume > 30 cc) patients and 29 control patients were included. From day one until seven, blood and CSF samples were obtained, and ICH volume was calculated. OS markers, like malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), glutathione-sulfhydryl (GSH), and the total antioxidant status (TAS) were measured. Clinical data on treatment and outcome were determined. Patients with mRS ≤ 4 showed significantly elevated SOD and GSH-Px levels in plasma compared to patients with poor CO (p = 0.004; p = 0.002). Initial increased TAS in plasma and increased MDA in CSF were linked to an unfavorable outcome after six months (p = 0.06, r = 0.45; p = 0.05, r = 0.44). A higher ICH volume was associated with a worse outcome at week six (p = 0.04, r = 0.47). OS plays a significant role in SBI. Larger ICHs, elevated MDA in CSF, and TAS in plasma were associated with a detrimental outcome, whereas higher plasma-SOD and -GSH-Px were associated with a favorable outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a major public health concern, and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great potential for treating ICH. However, the quantity and quality of MSCs decline in the cerebral niche, limiting the potential efficacy of MSCs. Hypoxic preconditioning is suggested to enhance the survival of MSCs and augment the therapeutic efficacy of MSCs in ICH. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are known to mediate cellular senescence. However, the precise mechanism by which miRNAs regulate the senescence of hypoxic MSCs remains to be further studied. In the present study, we evaluated whether hypoxic preconditioning enhances the survival and therapeutic effects of olfactory mucosa MSC (OM-MSC) survival and therapeutic effects in ICH and investigated the mechanisms by which miRNA ameliorates hypoxic OM-MSC senescence. METHODS In the in vivo model, ICH was induced in mice by administration of collagenase IV. At 24 h post-ICH, 5 × 105 normoxia or hypoxia OM-MSCs or saline was administered intracerebrally. The behavioral outcome, neuronal apoptosis, and OM-MSC survival were evaluated. In the in vitro model, OM-MSCs were exposed to hemin. Cellular senescence was examined by evaluating the expressions of P16INK4A, P21, P53, and by β-galactosidase staining. Microarray and bioinformatic analyses were performed to investigate the differences in the miRNA expression profiles between the normoxia and hypoxia OM-MSCs. Autophagy was confirmed using the protein expression levels of LC3, P62, and Beclin-1. RESULTS In the in vivo model, transplanted OM-MSCs with hypoxic preconditioning exhibited increased survival and tissue-protective capability. In the in vitro model, hypoxia preconditioning decreased the senescence of OM-MSCs exposed to hemin. Bioinformatic analysis identified that microRNA-326 (miR-326) expression was significantly increased in the hypoxia OM-MSCs compared with that of normoxia OM-MSCs. Upregulation of miR-326 alleviated normoxia OM-MSC senescence, whereas miR-326 downregulation increased hypoxia OM-MSC senescence. Furthermore, we showed that miR-326 alleviated cellular senescence by upregulating autophagy. Mechanistically, miR-326 promoted the autophagy of OM-MSCs via the PI3K signaling pathway by targeting polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTBP1). CONCLUSIONS Our study shows that hypoxic preconditioning delays OM-MSC senescence and augments the therapeutic efficacy of OM-MSCs in ICH by upregulating the miR-326/PTBP1/PI3K-mediated autophagy.

[PMID: 31960824 PMCID: PMC7047805 DOI: 10.4103/1673-5374.272614] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2019] [Revised: 07/26/2019] [Accepted: 10/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Interleukin 17 (IL-17) and its main producer, T cell receptor γδ cells, have neurotoxic effects in the pathogenesis of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), aggravating brain injuries. To investigate the correlation between IL-17 and ICH, we dynamically screened serum IL-17 concentrations using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and explored the clinical values of IL-17 in ICH patients. There was a significant negative correlation between serum IL-17 level and neurological recovery status in ICH patients (r = -0.498, P < 0.01). To study the neurotoxic role of IL-17, C57BL/6 mice were used to establish an ICH model by injecting autologous blood into the caudate nucleus. Subsequently, the mice were treated with mouse neural stem cells (NSCs) and/or IL-17 neutralizing antibody for 72 hours. Flow cytometry, brain water content detection, Nissl staining, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling results indicated that NSC transplantation significantly reduced IL-17 expression in peri-hematoma tissue, but there was no difference in T cell receptor γδ cells. Compared with the ICH group, there were fewer apoptotic bodies and more Nissl bodies in the ICH + NSC group and the ICH + NSC + IL-17 group. To investigate the potential effect of IL-17 on directional differentiation of NSCs, we cultured mouse NSCs (NE-4C) alone or co-cultured them with T cell receptor γδ cells, which were isolated from mouse peripheral blood mononuclear cells, for 7 days. The results of western blot assays revealed that IL-17 secreted by T cell receptor γδ cells reduced the differentiation of NSCs into astrocytes and neurons, while IL-17 neutralization relieved the inhibition of directional differentiation into astrocytes rather than neurons. In conclusion, serum IL-17 levels were elevated in the early stage of ICH and were negatively correlated with outcome in ICH patients. Animal experiments and cytological investigations therefore demonstrated that IL-17 probably has neurotoxic roles in ICH because of its inhibitory effects on the directional differentiation of NSCs. The application of IL-17 neutralizing antibody may promote the directional differentiation of NSCs into astrocytes. This study was approved by the Clinical Research Ethics Committee of Anhui Medical University of China (For human study: Approval No. 20170135) in December 2016. All animal handling and experimentation were reviewed and approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of Anhui Medical University (approval No. 20180248) in December 2017.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) causes neurological function deficit due to the loss of neurons surrounding the hematoma. Increased neurogenesis of endogenous neural stem cells (EnNSCs) is believed to increase cell proliferation and differentiation, thereby improving the neurological deficit. However, there are still limited drugs that are effective for treating neurological deficit. So, the effects of compound K (CK) in EnNSCs were measured after thrombin-induced mice models both in vivo and in vitro, and investigated the probable mechanisms of CK during pro-neurogenesis. The results revealed that 10 μM CK promotes neurogenesis, proliferation and reduces apoptosis of EnNSCs after induction by thrombin. After that, CK treatment increased the neurogenesis of EnNSCs through liver X receptor α (LXRα) signaling pathway using adeno-associated virus knockdown and knocked out mice of LXRα gene. Finally, intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg/kg CK improved the neurogenesis of subventricular zone (SVZ), myelin repair and behavioral deficit after stereotaxic injection of thrombin in the basal ganglia of mice, and this process involved LXRα. These observations provided evidence regarding the effect of CK in pro-neurogenesis via LXRα activation, and suggested further evaluation of it due to its potential role as an effective modulator in the treatment of ICH.

Cryobiology 2019; 92:92-102. [PMID: 31785238 DOI: 10.1016/j.cryobiol.2019.11.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2019] [Revised: 11/17/2019] [Accepted: 11/22/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Cryopreserved canine adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (Ad-MSCs) can be used instantly in dogs for clinical uses. However, cryopreservation results in a reduction of the cellular viability, proliferation, and anti-oxidation of post-thawed Ad-MSCs. Therefore, there is a need for in-vitro procedure to improve post-thawed Ad-MSCs' viability, proliferation, anti-oxidation, and differentiation capacity. In this study, fresh-Ad-MSCs were activated with heat shock, hypoxia (5% O2), or hypoxia (5% O2) + heat shock treatments. The results showed that compared to the other treatments, heat shock significantly improved the proliferation rate, anti-oxidation, heat shock proteins and growth factors expressions of canine-fresh-Ad-MSCs. Consequently, fresh-Ad-MSCs were heat-shocked and then cryopreserved with different combinations of dimethyl sulfoxide (Me2SO) and fetal bovine serum (FBS) to determine the combination that could effectively preserve the cellular viability, proliferation, anti-oxidation and differentiation capacity of Ad-MSCs after cryopreservation. We found that C-HST-Ad-MSCs cryopreserved with 10% Me2SO + 40% FBS presented significantly (p < 0.05) improved cellular viability, proliferation rate, anti-oxidant capacity, and differentiation potential as compared to C-HST-Ad-MSCs cryopreserved with 1% Me2SO + 10% FBS or 1% Me2SO alone or control. We concluded, heat shock treatment is much better to enhance the characteristics of fresh-Ad-MSCs than other treatments, moreover, C-HST-Ad-MSCs in 10% Me2SO + 40% FBS showed better results compared to other cryopreserved groups. However, future work is required to optimize the expression of heat shock proteins, which would further improve the characteristics of fresh- and cryopreserved-HST-Ad-MSCs and reduce the dependency on Me2SO and FBS.

Abstract
The predilection site of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is in the basal ganglia, which is rich in white matter (WM) fiber bundles, such as cerebrospinal tract in the internal capsule. ICH induced damage to this area can easily lead to severe neurological dysfunction and affects the prognosis and quality of life of patients. At present, the pathophysiological mechanisms of white matter injury (WMI) after ICH have attracted researchers' attention, but studies on the repair and recovery mechanisms and therapy strategies remain rare. In this review, we mainly summarized the WM recovery and treatment strategies after ICH by updating the WMI‐related content by reviewing the latest researches and proposing the bottleneck of the current research.

Abstract
Stroke is the main cause of disability and death in the world within neurological diseases. Despite such a huge impact, enzymatic, and mechanical recanalization are the only treatments available so far for ischemic stroke, but only <20% of patients can benefit from them. The use of stem cells as a possible cell therapy in stroke has been tested for years. The results obtained from these studies, although conflicting or controversial in some aspects, are promising. In the last few years, the recent development of the induced pluripotent stem cells has opened new possibilities to find new cell therapies against stroke. In this review, we will provide an overview of the state of the art of cell therapy in stroke. We will describe the current situation of the most employed stem cells and the use of induced pluripotent stem cells in stroke pathology. We will also present a summary of the different clinical trials that are being carried out or that already have results on the use of stem cells as a potential therapeutic intervention for stroke.

Abstract
Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one type of the most devastating cerebrovascular diseases worldwide, which causes high morbidity and mortality. However, efficient treatment is still lacking. Stem cell therapy has shown good neuroprotective and neurorestorative effect in ICH and is a promising treatment. In this study, our aim was to review the therapeutic effects, strategies, related mechanisms and safety issues of various types of stem cell for ICH treatment. Numerous studies had demonstrated the therapeutic effects of diverse stem cell types in ICH. The potential mechanisms include tissue repair and replacement, neurotrophy, promotion of neurogenesis and angiogenesis, anti-apoptosis, immunoregulation and anti-inflammation and so forth. The microenvironment of the central nervous system (CNS) can also influence the effects of stem cell therapy. The detailed therapeutic strategies for ICH treatment such as cell type, the number of cells, time window, and the routes of medication delivery, varied greatly among different studies and had not been determined. Moreover, the safety issues of stem cell therapy for ICH should not be ignored. Stem cell therapy showed good therapeutic effect in ICH, making it a promising treatment. However, safety should be carefully evaluated, and more clinical trials are required before stem cell therapy can be extensively applied to clinical use.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a fatal acute cerebrovascular disease, with a high morbidity and mortality. Following ICH, erythrocytes release heme and several of its metabolites, thereby contributing to brain edema and secondary brain damage. Heme oxygenase is the initial and rate-limiting enzyme of heme catabolism, and the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is rapidly induced following acute brain injury. As HO-1 exerts it effects via various metabolites, its role during ICH remains complex. Therefore, in-depth studies regarding the role of HO-1 in secondary brain damage following ICH may provide a theoretical basis for neuroprotective function after ICH. The present review aims to summarize recent key studies regarding the effects of HO-1 following ICH, as well as its influence on ICH prognosis.

Abstract
The transplantation of neural stem cells (NSCs) has been demonstrated as a potential treatment strategy for traumatic brain injury (TBI). Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is an important antioxidant enzyme that detoxifies intracellular reactive oxygen species, thereby protecting cells from oxidative damage. PEP-1, a peptide carrier, is able to deliver full-length native peptides or proteins into cells. Therefore, the current study investigated the effect of the transplantation of NSCs in combination with PEP-1-SOD1 for the treatment of experimental TBI in rats. Initially, the effect of PEP-1-SOD1 on the proliferation of NSCs was evaluated by MTT assay. PEP-1-SOD1 (0.5, 2.5 and 4.5 µM) significantly increased the proliferation rates of NSCs at 24, 48 and 72 h in a dose-dependent manner. PEP-1-SOD1 also promoted the differentiation of NSCs in vitro. The in vivo experiment showed that PEP-1-SOD1 in combination with NSC transplantation significantly improved the functional recovery of rats following TBI compared with NSC transplantation alone. A significant increase in brain aquaporin-4 (AQP4) mRNA and protein expression levels was observed 4 days post-TBI in PEP-1-SOD1, NSCs and PEP-1-SOD1 + NSCs groups compared with the saline group. The PEP-1-SOD1 + NSCs group showed a further increase of AQP4 mRNA and protein expression levels compared with the NSCs and PEP-1-SOD1 groups. In conclusion, the current data suggests that PEP-1-SOD1 may promote the proliferation and differentiation of NSCs, and thereby improve the functional recovery of TBI model rats following NSCs transplantation through upregulating the expression of AQP4.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) which refers to bleeding in the brain is a very deleterious condition with high mortality and disability rate. Surgery or conservative therapy remains the treatment option. Various studies have divided the disease process of ICH into primary and secondary injury, for which knowledge into these processes has yielded many preclinical and clinical treatment options. The aim of this review is to highlight some of the new experimental drugs as well as other treatment options like stem cell therapy, rehabilitation, and nanomedicine and mention some translational clinical applications that have been done with these treatment options.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that intraparenchymal transplantation of neural stem cells ameliorates neurological deficits in animals with intracerebral hemorrhage. However, hemoglobin in the host brain environment causes massive grafted cell death and reduces the effectiveness of this approach. Several studies have shown that preconditioning induced by sublethal hypoxia can markedly improve the tolerance of treated subjects to more severe insults. Therefore, we investigated whether hypoxic preconditioning enhances neural stem cell resilience to the hemorrhagic stroke environment and improves therapeutic effects in mice. To assess whether hypoxic preconditioning enhances neural stem cell survival when exposed to hemoglobin, neural stem cells were exposed to 5% hypoxia for 24 hours before exposure to hemoglobin. To study the effectiveness of hypoxic preconditioning on grafted-neural stem cell recovery, neural stem cells subjected to hypoxic preconditioning were grafted into the parenchyma 3 days after intracerebral hemorrhage. Hypoxic preconditioning significantly enhanced viability of the neural stem cells exposed to hemoglobin and increased grafted-cell survival in the intracerebral hemorrhage brain. Hypoxic preconditioning also increased neural stem cell secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor. Finally, transplanted neural stem cells with hypoxic preconditioning exhibited enhanced tissue-protective capability that accelerated behavioral recovery. Our results suggest that hypoxic preconditioning in neural stem cells improves efficacy of stem cell therapy for intracerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic stroke is a common and severe neurological disorder and is associated with high rates of mortality and morbidity, especially for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Increasing evidence demonstrates that oxidative stress responses participate in the pathophysiological processes of secondary brain injury (SBI) following ICH. The mechanisms involved in interoperable systems include endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, neuronal apoptosis and necrosis, inflammation, and autophagy. In this review, we summarized some promising advances in the field of oxidative stress and ICH, including contained animal and human investigations. We also discussed the role of oxidative stress, systemic oxidative stress responses, and some research of potential therapeutic options aimed at reducing oxidative stress to protect the neuronal function after ICH, focusing on the challenges of translation between preclinical and clinical studies, and potential post-ICH antioxidative therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
In this study, we examined the effect of progesterone on histopathologic and functional outcomes of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in 10- to 12-month-old mice. Progesterone or vehicle was administered by intraperitoneal injection 1 hour after collagenase-induced ICH and then by subcutaneous injections at 6, 24, and 48 hours. Oxidative and nitrosative stress were assayed at 12 hours post-ICH. Injury markers were examined on day 1, and lesion was examined on day 3. Neurologic deficits were examined for 28 days. Progesterone posttreatment reduced lesion volume, brain swelling, edema, and cell degeneration and improved long-term neurologic function. These protective effects were associated with reductions in protein carbonyl formation, protein nitrosylation, and matrix metalloproteinase-9 activity and attenuated cellular and molecular inflammatory responses. Progesterone also reduced vascular endothelial growth factor expression, increased neuronal-specific Na(+)/K(+) ATPase ɑ3 subunit expression, and reduced protein kinase C-dependent Na(+)/K(+) ATPase phosphorylation. Furthermore, progesterone reduced glial scar thickness, myelin loss, brain atrophy, and residual injury volume on day 28 after ICH. With multiple brain targets, progesterone warrants further investigation for its potential use in ICH therapy.

Toyoda K, Koga M, Sato S. What are the next breakthroughs in the management of acute intracerebral hemorrhage? Int J Stroke 2016; 11:386-8.

Abstract
The impact of acute therapy for intracerebral hemorrhage is far behind that for acute ischemic stroke. Potential breakthroughs in the management of acute intracerebral hemorrhage are presented. To prevent early hematoma growth, acute blood pressure lowering, emergent hemostatic therapy, and minimally invasive surgery with topical thrombolysis have been attempted. Anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective pharmacotherapies may attenuate perihematomal edema as a surrogate marker for the inflammatory response and improve clinical outcomes after intracerebral hemorrhage. Hyperacute modification of vital parameters, early seizure control, early rehabilitation, and neuroregenerative therapy are other promising strategies in the foreseeable future.

Oxidative Stress in Intracerebral Hemorrhage: Sources, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Targets. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2015; 2016:3215391. [PMID: 26843907 PMCID: PMC4710930 DOI: 10.1155/2016/3215391] [Citation(s) in RCA: 94] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2015] [Revised: 10/19/2015] [Accepted: 10/20/2015] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with the highest mortality and morbidity despite only constituting approximately 10–15% of all strokes. Complex underlying mechanisms consisting of cytotoxic, excitotoxic, and inflammatory effects of intraparenchymal blood are responsible for its highly damaging effects. Oxidative stress (OS) also plays an important role in brain injury after ICH but attracts less attention than other factors. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that the metabolite axis of hemoglobin-heme-iron is the key contributor to oxidative brain damage after ICH, although other factors, such as neuroinflammation and prooxidases, are involved. This review will discuss the sources, possible molecular mechanisms, and potential therapeutic targets of OS in ICH.
