Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia has shown promise as a means to improving neurological outcomes at several neurological conditions. At the clinical level, it has been shown to improve outcomes in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest and in neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, but has yet to be convincingly demonstrated in stroke. While numerous preclinical studies have shown benefit in stroke models, translating this to the clinical level has proven challenging. Major obstacles include cooling patients with typical stroke who are awake and breathing spontaneously but often have significant comorbidities. Solutions around these problems include selective brain cooling and cooling to lesser depths or avoiding hyperthermia. This review will cover the mechanisms of protection by therapeutic hypothermia, as well as recent progress made in selective brain cooling and the neuroprotective effects of only slightly lowering brain temperature. Therapeutic hypothermia for stroke has been shown to be feasible, but has yet to be definitively proven effective. There is clearly much work to be undertaken in this area.

Abstract
The experimental data obtained by Simats A. et al. (Molecular and Cellular Proteomics, 2020, 19(12), 1921-1936) was analysed using a bioinformatic approach. Original experimental results available in the ProteomeXchange database were obtained using a comprehensive multidomain approach to identify potential blood biomarkers in ischemic stroke in mice. The identification of peptides with post-translational modification (PTM) was performed by us using the raw data (accession code PXD016538). Only phosphorylation and deamination were considered as PTMs. Different combinations of data sets (ischemic tissue with intact tissue, ischemic tissue with control taken from mice after sham surgery, etc.) were compared both in terms of the ratio of abundance for the modified peptide to the unmodified variant and in terms of absolute values of abundance. The most likely change in precisely PTM levels was shown for 27 proteins, which include dynamin, glycogen phosphorylase and 70 kDa heat shock protein.

Targeted Temperature Management at 36 °C Shows Therapeutic Effectiveness via Alteration of Microglial Activation and Polarization After Ischemic Stroke. Transl Stroke Res 2021; 13:132-141. [PMID: 33893993 DOI: 10.1007/s12975-021-00910-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2020] [Revised: 02/03/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Ischemic injury leads to cell death and inflammatory responses after stroke. Microglia especially play a crucial role in this brain inflammation. Targeted temperature management (TTM) at 33 °C has shown neuroprotective effects against many acute ischemic injuries. However, it has also shown some adverse effects in preclinical studies. Therefore, we explored the neuroprotective effect of TTM at 36 °C in the ischemic brain. To confirm the neuroprotective effects of hypothermia, mice were subjected to a permanent stroke and then treated with one of the TTM paradigms at 33 and 36 °C. For comparison of TTM at 33 and 36 °C, we examined neuronal cell death and inflammatory response, including activation and polarization of microglia in the ischemic brain. TTM at 33 and 36 °C showed neuroprotective effects in comparison with normal body temperature (NT) at 37.5 °C. Mice under TTM at 33 and 36 °C showed ~ 45-50% fewer TUNEL-positive cells than those under NT. In IVIS spectrum CT, the activation of microglia/macrophage in CX3CR1GFP mice reduced after TTM at 33 and 36 °C in comparison with that after NT on day 7 after ischemic stroke. The number of Tmem119-positive cells under TTM at 33 and 36 °C was ~ 45-50% lower than that in mice under NT. TTM at 33 and 36 °C also increased the ratio of CD206-/CD86-positive cells than the ratio of CD86-/CD206-positive cells by ~ 1.2-fold. Thus, TTM at 33 and 36 °C could equivalently decrease the expression of certain cytokines after ischemic stroke. Our study suggested that TTM at 33 or 36 °C produces equivalent neuroprotective effects by attenuating cell death and by altering microglial activation and polarization. Therefore, TTM at 36 °C can be considered for its safety and effectiveness in ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Acute ischemic stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Therapeutic hypothermia has long been considered as one of the most robust neuroprotective strategies. Although the neuroprotective effects of hypothermia have only been confirmed in patients with global cerebral ischemia after cardiac arrest and in neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, establishing standardized protocols and strictly controlling the key parameters may extend its application in other brain injuries, such as acute ischemic stroke. In this review, we discuss the potential neuroprotective effects of hypothermia, its drawbacks evidenced in previous studies, and its potential clinical application for acute ischemic stroke especially in the era of reperfusion. Based on the different conditions between bench and bedside settings, we demonstrate the importance of vascular recanalization for neuroprotection of hypothermia by analyzing numerous literatures regarding hypothermia in focal cerebral ischemia. Then, we make a thorough analysis of key parameters of hypothermia and introduce novel hypothermic therapies. We advocate in favor of the process of clinical translation of intra-arterial selective cooling infusion in the era of reperfusion and provide insights into the prospects of hypothermia in acute ischemic stroke.

Cofilin-actin rod formation in experimental stroke is attenuated by therapeutic hypothermia and overexpression of the inducible 70 kD inducible heat shock protein (Hsp70). Brain Circ 2019; 5:225-233. [PMID: 31950099 PMCID: PMC6950512 DOI: 10.4103/bc.bc_52_19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2019] [Accepted: 11/26/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cofilin-actin rods are covalently linked aggregates of cofilin-1 and actin. Under ischemic conditions, these rods have been observed in neuronal dendrites and axons and may contribute to the loss of these processes. Hypothermia (Hypo) and the 70 kD inducible heat shock protein (Hsp70) are both known to improve outcomes after stroke, but the mechanisms are uncertain. Here, we evaluated the effect of these factors on cofilin-actin rod formation in a mouse model of stroke. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mice were subjected to distal middle cerebral artery occlusion (dMCAO) and treated with Hypo using a paradigm previously shown to be neuroprotective. We similarly studied mice that overexpressed transgenic (Tg) or were deficient knockout (Ko) in the inducible 70 kDa heat shock protein (Hsp70), also previously shown to be protective by our group and others. Cofilin-actin rod formation was assessed by histological analysis at 4 and 24 h after dMCAO. Its expression was analyzed in three different regions, namely, infarct core (the center of the infarct), middle cerebral artery (MCA) borderzone (the edge of the brain regions supplied by the MCA), and the ischemic borderzone (border of ischemic lesion). Ischemic lesion size and neurological deficits were also assessed. RESULTS Both Hypo-treated and Hsp70 Tg mice had smaller lesion sizes and improved neurological outcomes, whereas Hsp70 Ko mice had larger lesion sizes and worsened neurological outcomes. Cofilin-actin rods were increased after stroke, but were reduced by therapeutic Hypo and in Hsp70 Tg mice. In contrast, cofilin-actin rods were increased in ischemic brains of Hsp70 Ko mice. CONCLUSIONS Cofilin-actin rod formation was suppressed under the conditions of neuroprotection and increased under circumstances where outcome was worsened. This suggests that cofilin-actin rods may act to participate in or exacerbate ischemic pathology and warrants further study as a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia has consistently been shown to be a robust neuroprotectant in many labs studying different models of neurological disease. Although this therapy has shown great promise, there are still challenges at the clinical level that limit the ability to apply this routinely to each pathological condition. In order to overcome issues involved in hypothermia therapy, understanding of this attractive therapy is needed. We review methodological concerns surrounding therapeutic hypothermia, introduce the current status of therapeutic cooling in various acute brain insults, and review the literature surrounding the many underlying molecular mechanisms of hypothermic neuroprotection. Because recent work has shown that body temperature can be safely lowered using pharmacological approaches, this method may be an especially attractive option for many clinical applications. Since hypothermia can affect multiple aspects of brain pathophysiology, therapeutic hypothermia could also be considered a neuroprotection model in basic research, which would be used to identify potential therapeutic targets. We discuss how research in this area carries the potential to improve outcome from various acute neurological disorders.

Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia, or cooling of the body or brain for the purposes of preserving organ viability, is one of the most robust neuroprotectants at both the preclinical and clinical levels. Although therapeutic hypothermia has been shown to improve outcome from related clinical conditions, the significance in ischemic stroke is still under investigation. Numerous pre-clinical studies of therapeutic hypothermia has suggested optimal cooling conditions, such as depth, duration, and temporal therapeutic window for effective neuroprotection. Several studies have also explored mechanisms underlying the mechanisms of neuroprotection by therapeutic hypothermia. As such, it appears that cooling affects multiple aspects of brain pathophysiology, and regulates almost every pathway involved in the evolution of ischemic stroke. This multifaceted mechanism is thought to contribute to its strong neuroprotective effect. In order to carry out this therapy in optimal clinical settings, methodological and pathophysiological understanding is crucial. However, more investigation is still needed to better understand the underlying mechanisms of this intervention, and to overcome clinical barriers which seem to preclude the routine use therapeutic hypothermia in stroke. This article is part of the Special Issue entitled 'Cerebral Ischemia'.
