Monsour M, Croci DM, Agazzi S. Microclots in subarachnoid hemorrhage: an underestimated factor in delayed cerebral ischemia? Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2022; 219:107330. [PMID: 35700661 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2022.107330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2022] [Revised: 06/02/2022] [Accepted: 06/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage has a poor prognosis due to the wide array of associated complications such as vasospasm, early brain injury, cortical spreading depression, oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. Each of these complications increases the risk of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), but recent research has suggested microclots play a substantial role in DCI incidence. This review will focus on the underlying inflammatory and coagulative mechanisms of microthrombosis while also outlining the current literature relating microclot burden to DCI. With a better understanding DCI pathophysiology as it relates to microthrombosis, more effective therapies can be developed in the future to improve clinical outcomes of SAH.

Abstract
Early brain injury (EBI) is considered an important cause of morbidity and mortality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). As a factor in EBI, microcirculatory dysfunction has become a focus of interest, but whether microcirculatory dysfunction is more important than angiographic vasospasm (aVS) remains unclear. Using data from 128 cases, we measured the time to peak (TTP) in several regions of interest on digital subtraction angiography. The intracerebral circulation time (iCCT) was obtained between the TTP in the ultra-early phase (the baseline iCCT) and in the subacute phase and/or at delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) onset (the follow-up iCCT). In addition, the difference in the iCCT was calculated by subtracting the baseline iCCT from the follow-up iCCT. Univariate analysis showed that DCI was significantly increased in those patients with a prolonged baseline iCCT, prolonged follow-up iCCT, increased differences in the iCCT, and with severe aVS. Poor outcome was significantly increased in patients with prolonged follow-up iCCT and increased differences in the iCCT. Multivariate analysis revealed that increased differences in the iCCT were a significant risk factor that increased DCI and poor outcome. The results suggest that the increasing microcirculatory dysfunction over time, not aVS, causes DCI and poor outcome after aneurysmal aSAH.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) patients develop delayed cerebral ischemia and delayed deficits (DCI) within 2 weeks of aneurysm rupture at a rate of approximately 30%. DCI is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality after SAH. The cause of DCI is multi-factorial with contributions from microthrombi, blood vessel constriction, inflammation, and cortical spreading depolarizations. Platelets play central roles in hemostasis, inflammation, and vascular function. Within this review, we examine the potential roles of platelets in microthrombi formation, large artery vasospasm, microvessel constriction, inflammation, and cortical spreading depolarization. Evidence from experimental and clinical studies is provided to support the role(s) of platelets in each pathophysiology which contributes to DCI. The review concludes with a suggestion for future therapeutic targets to prevent DCI after aSAH.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is the most feared complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). It increases the mortality and morbidity associated with aSAH. Previously, large cerebral artery vasospasm was thought to be the sole major contributing factor associated with increased risk of DCI. Recent literature has challenged this concept. We conducted a literature search using PUBMED as the prime source of articles discussing various other factors which may contribute to the development of DCI both in the presence or absence of large cerebral artery vasospasm. These factors include microvascular spasm, micro-thrombosis, cerebrovascular dysregulation, and cortical spreading depolarization. These factors collectively result in inflammation of brain parenchyma, which is thought to precipitate early brain injury and DCI. We conclude that diagnostic modalities need to be refined in order to diagnose DCI more efficiently in its early phase, and newer interventions need to be developed to prevent and treat this condition. These newer interventions are currently being studied in experimental models. However, their effectiveness on patients with aSAH is yet to be determined.

Preclinical and clinical role of interleukin-6 in the development of delayed cerebral vasospasm and neuronal cell death after subarachnoid hemorrhage: towards a potential target therapy? Neurosurg Rev 2021; 45:395-403. [PMID: 34448990 PMCID: PMC8391870 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-021-01628-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2021] [Revised: 07/13/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Delayed cerebral vasospasm (DCVS), early brain injury (EBI), and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) are devastating complications after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Interleukin (IL)-6 seems to be an important interleukin in the inflammatory response after SAH, and many studies describe a strong correlation between IL-6 and worse outcome. The aim of this study was to systematically review preclinical and clinical studies that evaluated systemic and cerebral IL-6 levels after SAH and their relation to DCVS, neuronal cell death, and DCI. We conducted two systematic literature searches using PubMed to identify preclinical and clinical studies evaluating the role of IL-6 after SAH. Suitable articles were selected based on predefined eligibility criteria following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. A total of 61 and 30 preclinical and clinical articles, respectively, were included in the systematic reviews. Of the preclinical studies in which IL-6 was measured in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), parenchyma, and systemically, 100%, 94.4%, and 81.3%, respectively, showed increased expression of IL-6 after SAH. Preclinical results were mirrored by clinical findings in which elevated levels of IL-6 in CSF and plasma were found after SAH, correlating with DCVS, DCI, and worse outcome. Only two preclinical studies analyzed the direct inhibition of IL-6, which resulted in reduced DCVS and neuronal cell death. IL-6 is a marker of intracranial inflammation and plays a role in the pathophysiology of DCVS and DCI after SAH in preclinical animal models and clinical studies. Its inhibition might have therapeutic potential to improve the outcome of SAH patients.

Neuroprotective Strategies in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (aSAH). Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22115442.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remains a disease with high mortality and morbidity. Since treating vasospasm has not inevitably led to an improvement in outcome, the actual emphasis is on finding neuroprotective therapies in the early phase following aSAH to prevent secondary brain injury in the later phase of disease. Within the early phase, neuroinflammation, thromboinflammation, disturbances in brain metabolism and early neuroprotective therapies directed against delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) came into focus. Herein, the role of neuroinflammation, thromboinflammation and metabolism in aSAH is depicted. Potential neuroprotective strategies regarding neuroinflammation target microglia activation, metalloproteases, autophagy and the pathway via Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), NF-κB and finally the release of cytokines like TNFα or IL-1. Following the link to thromboinflammation, potential neuroprotective therapies try to target microthrombus formation, platelets and platelet receptors as well as clot clearance and immune cell infiltration. Potential neuroprotective strategies regarding metabolism try to re-balance the mismatch of energy need and supply following aSAH, for example, in restoring fuel to the TCA cycle or bypassing distinct energy pathways. Overall, this review addresses current neuroprotective strategies in aSAH, hopefully leading to future translational therapy options to prevent secondary brain injury.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been associated with numerous pathophysiological sequelae, including large artery vasospasm and microvascular thrombosis. The focus of this review is to provide an overview of experimental animal model studies and human autopsy studies that explore the temporal-spatial characterization and mechanism of microvascular platelet aggregation and thrombosis following SAH, as well as to critically assess experimental studies and clinical trials highlighting preventative therapeutic options against this highly morbid pathophysiological process. Upon review of the literature, we discovered that microvascular platelet aggregation and thrombosis occur after experimental SAH across multiple species and SAH induction techniques in a similar time frame to other components of DCI, occurring in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus across both hemispheres. We discuss the relationship of these findings to human autopsy studies. In the final section of this review, we highlight the important therapeutic options for targeting microvascular platelet aggregation and thrombosis, and emphasize why therapeutic targeting of this neurovascular pathology may improve patient care. We encourage ongoing research into the pathophysiology of SAH and DCI, especially in regard to microvascular platelet aggregation and thrombosis and the translation to randomized clinical trials.

Abstract
Background: Delayed cerebral vasospasm (DCVS) due to aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and its sequela, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), are associated with poor functional outcome. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is known to play a major role in mediating cerebral vasoconstriction. Angiotensin-II-type-1-receptor antagonists such as Sartans may have a beneficial effect after aSAH by reducing DCVS due to crosstalk with the endothelin system. In this review, we discuss the role of Sartans in the treatment of stroke and their potential impact in aSAH. Methods: We conducted a literature research of the MEDLINE PubMed database in accordance with PRISMA criteria on articles published between 1980 to 2019 reviewing: "Sartans AND ischemic stroke". Of 227 studies, 64 preclinical and 19 clinical trials fulfilled the eligibility criteria. Results: There was a positive effect of Sartans on ischemic stroke in both preclinical and clinical settings (attenuating ischemic brain damage, reducing cerebral inflammation and infarct size, increasing cerebral blood flow). In addition, Sartans reduced DCVS after aSAH in animal models by diminishing the effect of ET-1 mediated vasoconstriction (including cerebral inflammation and cerebral epileptogenic activity reduction, cerebral blood flow autoregulation restoration as well as pressure-dependent cerebral vasoconstriction). Conclusion: Thus, Sartans might play a key role in the treatment of patients with aSAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a severe and emergent cerebrovascular disease, the prognosis of which usually very poor. Microthrombi formation highlighted with inflammation occurs early after SAH. As the main cause of DCI, microthrombosis associated with the prognosis of SAH. The aim of this study was to show HSP90 inhibitor 17-AAG effect on microthrombosis after SAH in rats. METHODS Ninety-five SD rats were used for the experiment. For time course study, the rats were randomly divided into five groups: sham group and SAH group with different time point (1d, 2d, 3d, 5d). Endovascular perforation method was conducted for SAH model. Neurological score, SAH grade, and mortality were measured after SAH. The samples of the left hemisphere brain were collected. The expression of HSP90 was detected by Western blot. The microthrombosis after SAH in rats' brain was detected by immunohistochemistry. For mechanism study, rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham, SAH + vehicle, and SAH +17-AAG (n = 6/group). 17-AAG was given by intraperitoneal injection (80 mg/kg) 1 h after SAH. Neurological function were measured at 24 h after SAH. The expression of RIP3, NLRP3, ASC, and IL-1β was measured by Western blot. Microthrombosis was detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Our results showed that the HSP90 protein level increased and peaked at 2 days after SAH. Microthrombosis caused by SAH was increased in 1 day and peaked at 2 days after SAH. Administration HSP90 specific inhibitor 17-AAG reduced expression of RIP3, NLRP3, ASC, and IL-1β, reduced microthrombosis after SAH, and improved neurobehavior when compared to vehicle group. CONCLUSIONS 17-AAG can ameliorate microthrombosis via HSP90/RIP3/NLRP3 pathway and improve neurobehavior after SAH.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage after cerebral aneurysm rupture (aSAH) leads to delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) in 25-35% of surviving patients. It is believed that DCI has a multifactorial etiology, including vasospasm. Furthermore, aSAH is associated with the development of hypercoagulation and microthrombosis; thus, its pharmacological correction may help to prevent DCI. We encountered a case where hypercoagulation was detected using rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM), although the standard coagulation test results were within the normal ranges. Based on reviews of viscoelastic tests in cases of aSAH, ROTEM could be more sensitive to hypercoagulation after aSAH, compared to standard coagulation testing.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a major determinant of patient outcome following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Although the exact mechanisms leading to DCI are not fully known, inflammation, cerebral vasospasm, and microthrombi may all function together to mediate the onset of DCI. Indeed, inflammation is tightly linked with activation of coagulation and microthrombi formation. Thromboinflammation is the intersection at which inflammation and thrombosis regulate one another in a feedforward manner, potentiating the formation of thrombi and pro-inflammatory signaling. In this review, we will explore the role(s) of inflammation and microthrombi in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) pathophysiology and DCI, and discuss the potential of targeting thromboinflammation to prevent DCI after SAH.

Abstract
Embolus-related cerebral injury is still a serious adverse event after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). But there is no stable animal model for basic and clinical research purposes. We chose miniature pig to establish a stable animal model of embolus-related cerebral injury after CPB and verified the validity of results by correlating the histopathological findings with those of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI). Based on different treatment regimens, 24 male miniature pigs were randomly assigned into four groups: Control, CPB, embolus, and CPB-embolus groups. DW-MRI was performed before and after surgery to diagnose and locate the brain lesions. Histopathological changes in brain tissues were examined using H&E and Nissl staining. All surgical procedures were uneventful with 100% postoperative survival of pigs. Two animals in the Embolus group and six animals in the CPB-embolus group showed signs of ischemic penumbra on DW-MRI performed 6 h after surgery. Consistent with the results of DW-MRI, histopathological examination showed necrosis and ischemic lesions. In this paper, we demonstrate the feasibility and validity of a pig model of embolus-related cerebral injury associated with CPB. This model may be used in the future for basic and translational research.

Abstract
Background It is unclear how complex pathophysiological mechanisms that result in early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) are triggered. We investigate how peak intracranial pressure (ICP), amount of subarachnoid blood, and hyperacute depletion of cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) correlate to the onset of EBI following experimental SAH. Methods An entire spectrum of various degrees of SAH severities measured as peak ICP was generated and controlled using the blood shunt SAH model in rabbits. Standard cardiovascular monitoring, ICP, CPP, and bilateral regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) were continuously measured. Cells with DNA damage and neurodegeneration were detected using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) and Fluoro-jade B (FJB). Results rCBF was significantly correlated to reduction in CPP during the initial 15 min after SAH in a linear regression pattern (r2 = 0.68, p < 0.001). FJB- and TUNEL-labeled cells were linearly correlated to reduction in CPP during the first 3 min of hemorrhage in the hippocampal regions (FJB: r2 = 0.50, p < 0.01; TUNEL: r2 = 0.35, p < 0.05), as well as in the basal cortex (TUNEL: r2 = 0.58, p < 0.01). EBI occurred in animals with severe (relative CPP depletion >0.4) and moderate (relative CPP depletion >0.25 but <0.4) SAH. Neuronal cell death was equally detected in vulnerable and more resistant brain regions. Conclusions The degree of EBI in terms of neuronal cell degeneration in both the hippocampal regions and the basal cortex linearly correlates with reduced CPP during hyperacute SAH. Temporary CPP reduction, however, is not solely responsible for EBI but potentially triggers processes that eventually result in early brain damage.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is a disease with devastating complications that leads to stroke, permanent neurological deficits and death. Clinical and ex-perimental work has demonstrated the importance of the contribution of delayed cerebral vasospasm (DCVS) indepen-dent early events to mortality, morbidity and functional out-come after SAH. In order to elucidate processes involved in early brain injury (EBI), animal models that reflect acute events of aneurysmal bleeding, such as increase in intracranial pressure (ICP) and decrease in cerebral perfusion pressure, are needed. In the presented arterial shunt model, bleeding is initially driven by the pressure gradient between mean arterial blood pressure and ICP. SAH dynamics (flow rate, volume and duration) depend on physiological reactions and local anatomical intrathecal (cistern) conditions. During SAH, ICP reaches a plateau close to diastolic arterial blood pressure and the blood flow stops. Historical background, anaesthesia, perioperative care and monitoring, SAH induction, technical considerations and advantages and limitations of the rabbit blood shunt SAH model are discussed in detail. Awareness of technical details, physiological characteristics and appropriate monitoring methods guarantees successful implementation of the rabbit blood shunt model and allows the study of both EBI and DCVS after SAH.
