Abstract
INTRODUCTION Microglia play pivotal roles in post-intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) neural injury. Iron metabolism, which is dysregulated after ICH, participates in microglial dysfunction. Previous studies have shown that iron metabolism-related lipocalin-2 (LCN2) is involved in regulating microglial function following ICH. In this study, we investigated the role of LCN2 in microglial function following ICH. METHODS The BV2 (microglia) cell line, transfected with LCN2 for overexpression/interference, received a blood infusion from C57BL/6 mice in vitro. For the in vivo study of LCN2 function, an LCN2 knockout was conducted in mice. Liproxstatin-1 and RSL3 were used to manipulate ferroptosis and to study the effects of LCN2 on microglia after ICH. A BV2 (microglia) cell line, transfected with ferritin light chain (FTL) for overexpression/interference, was co-cultured with primary cultured neurons for a study on the mechanism of LCN2. Behavioral tests were conducted pre-ICH and on days 3, 7, and 28 post-ICH, and the brains and cultured cells were collected for protein, histological, and morphological studies. RESULTS Brain LCN2 expression was upregulated in microglia, astrocytes, and neurons and played hazardous roles after ICH. In microglia, LCN2 promoted ferroptosis, which facilitated neural injury after ICH. LCN2-mediated FTL deficiency was shown to be responsible for microglial ferroptosis-induced neural injury. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that LCN2-enhanced microglial ferroptosis plays a detrimental role by inducing FTL deficiency after ICH. The current study reveals a novel molecular mechanism involved in the pathophysiological progression of ICH.

Abstract
Metal ions play a pivotal role in maintaining optimal brain function within the human body. Nevertheless, the accumulation of these ions can result in irregularities that lead to brain damage and dysfunction. Disruptions of metal ion homeostasis can result in various pathologies, including inflammation, redox dysregulation, and blood-brain barrier disruption. While research on metal ions has chiefly focused on neurodegenerative diseases, little attention has been given to their involvement in the onset and progression of stroke. Recent studies have identified cuproptosis and confirmed ferroptosis as significant factors in stroke pathology, underscoring the importance of metal ions in stroke pathology, including abnormal ion transport, neurotoxicity, blood-brain barrier damage, and cell death. Additionally, it provides an overview of contemporary metal ion chelators and detection techniques, which may offer novel approaches to stroke treatment.

Impaired microglial glycolysis promotes inflammatory responses after intracerebral haemorrhage via HK2-dependent mitochondrial dysfunction. J Adv Res 2024:S2090-1232(24)00359-X.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating disease that leads to severe neurological deficits. Microglia are the first line of defence in the brain and play a crucial role in neurological recovery after ICH, whose activities are primarily driven by glucose metabolism. However, little is known regarding the status of glucose metabolism in microglia and its interactions with inflammatory responses after ICH. OBJECTIVES This study investigated microglial glycolysis and its mechanistic effects on microglial inflammation after ICH. METHODS We explored the status of glucose metabolism in the ipsilateral region and in fluorescence-activated-cell-sorting-isolated (FACS-isolated) microglia via 2-deoxy-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) analyses and gamma emission, respectively. Energy-related targeted metabolomics, along with 13C-glucose isotope tracing, was utilised to analyse glycolytic products in microglia. Mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (MitoROS) accumulation was assessed by flow cytometry. Behavioural, western blotting, gene regulation, and enzymatic activity analyses were conducted with a focus on microglia. RESULTS Neurological dysfunction was strongly correlated with decreased FDG-PET signals in the perihaematomal region, where microglial uptake of FDG was reduced. The decreased quantity of glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) in microglia was attributed to the downregulation of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and hexokinase 2 (HK2). Enhanced inflammatory responses were driven by HK2 suppression via decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, which could be rescued by MitoROS scavengers. HK inhibitors aggravated neurological injury by suppressing FDG uptake and enhancing microglial inflammation in ICH mice. CONCLUSION These findings indicate an unexpected metabolic status in pro-inflammatory microglia after ICH, consisting of glycolysis impairment caused by the downregulation of GLUT1 and HK2. Additionally, HK2 suppression promotes inflammatory responses by disrupting mitochondrial function, providing insight into the mechanisms by which inflammation may be facilitated after ICH and indicating that metabolic enzymes as potential targets for ICH treatment.

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles mitigate neuronal damage from intracerebral hemorrhage by modulating ferroptosis. Stem Cell Res Ther 2024; 15:255.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemorrhagic stroke is a devastating cerebrovascular event with a high rate of early mortality and long-term disability. The therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) for neurological conditions, such as intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), has garnered considerable interest, has garnered considerable interest, though their mechanisms of action remain poorly understood. METHODS EVs were isolated from human umbilical cord MSCs, and SPECT/CT was used to track the 99mTc-labeled EVs in a mouse model of ICH. A series of comprehensive evaluations, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), histological study, RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq), or miRNA microarray, were performed to investigate the therapeutic action and mechanisms of MSC-EVs in both cellular and animal models of ICH. RESULTS Our findings show that intravenous injection of MSC-EVs exhibits a marked affinity for the ICH-affected brain regions and cortical neurons. EV infusion alleviates the pathological changes observed in MRI due to ICH and reduces damage to ipsilateral cortical neurons. RNA-Seq analysis reveals that EV treatment modulates key pathways involved in the neuronal system and metal ion transport in mice subjected to ICH. These data were supported by the attenuation of neuronal ferroptosis in neurons treated with Hemin and in ICH mice following EV therapy. Additionally, miRNA microarray analysis depicted the EV-miRNAs targeting genes associated with ferroptosis, and miR-214-3p was identified as a regulator of neuronal ferroptosis in the ICH cellular model. CONCLUSIONS MSC-EVs offer neuroprotective effects against ICH-induced neuronal damage by modulating ferroptosis highlighting their therapeutic potential for combating neuronal ferroptosis in brain disorders.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI)-induced intracerebral hematoma is a major driver of secondary injury pathology such as neuroinflammation, cerebral edema, neurotoxicity, and blood-brain barrier dysfunction, which contribute to neuronal loss, motor deficits, and cognitive impairment. Cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) is an antiphagocytic cell surface protein inhibiting hematoma clearance. This study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of blockade of CD47 via intravenous (i.v.) administration of anti-CD47 antibodies following penetrating ballistic-like brain injury (PBBI) with significant traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (tICH). The pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of the anti-CD47 antibody elicited that antibody concentration decayed over 7 days post-administration. Blood tests and necropsy analysis indicated no severe adverse events following treatment. Cerebral hemoglobin levels were significantly increased after injury, however, anti-CD47 antibody administration at 0.1 mg/kg resulted in a significant reduction in cerebral hemoglobin levels at 72 h post-administration, indicating augmentation of hematoma clearance. Immunohistochemistry assessment of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1 (IBA1) demonstrated a significant reduction of GFAP levels in the lesion core and peri-lesional area. Based on these analyses, the optimal dose was identified as 0.1 mg/kg. Lesion volume showed a reduction following treatment. Rotarod testing revealed significant motor deficits in all injured groups but no significant therapeutic benefits. Spatial learning performance revealed significant deficits in all injured groups, which were significantly improved by the last testing day. Anti-CD47 antibody treated rats showed significantly improved attention deficits, but not retention scores. These results provide preliminary evidence that blockade of CD47 using i.v. administration of anti-CD47 antibodies may serve as a potential therapeutic for TBI with ICH.

Abstract
Hematoma clearance is critical for mitigating intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)-induced brain injury. Multinucleated giant cells (MGCs), a type of phagocyte, and the complement system may play a pivotal role in hematoma resolution, but whether the complement system regulates MGC formation after ICH remains unclear. The current study investigated the following: (1) the characteristics of MGC formation after ICH, (2) whether it was impacted by complement C3 deficiency in mice and (3) whether it also influenced hematoma degradation (hemosiderin formation). Young and aged male mice, young female mice and C3-deficient and -sufficient mice received a 30 μL injection of autologous whole blood into the right basal ganglia. Brain histology and immunohistochemistry were used to examine MGC formation on days 3 and 7. Hemosiderin deposition was examined by autofluorescence on day 28. Following ICH, MGCs were predominantly located in the peri-hematoma region exhibiting multiple nuclei and containing red blood cells or their metabolites. Aging was associated with a decrease in MGC formation after ICH, while sex showed no discernible effect. C3 deficiency reduced MGC formation and reduced hemosiderin formation. Peri-hematomal MGCs may play an important role in hematoma resolution. Understanding how aging and complement C3 impact MGCs may provide important insights into how to regulate hematoma resolution.

Abstract
MIcroglia/macrophage-mediated erythrophagocytosis plays a crucial role in hematoma clearance after intracerebral hemorrhage. Dynamic cytoskeletal changes accompany phagocytosis. However, whether and how these changes are associated with microglia/macrophage-mediated erythrophagocytosis remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the function of acetylated α-tubulin, a stabilized microtubule form, in microglia/macrophage erythrophagocytosis after intracerebral hemorrhage both in vitro and in vivo. We first assessed the function of acetylated α-tubulin in erythrophagocytosis using primary DiO GFP-labeled red blood cells co-cultured with the BV2 microglia or RAW264.7 macrophage cell lines. Acetylated α-tubulin expression was significantly decreased in BV2 and RAW264.7 cells during erythrophagocytosis. Moreover, silencing α-tubulin acetyltransferase 1 (ATAT1), a newly discovered α-tubulin acetyltransferase, decreased Ac-α-tub levels and enhanced the erythrophagocytosis by BV2 and RAW264.7 cells. Consistent with these findings, in ATAT1-/- mice, we observed increased ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1 (Iba1) and Perls-positive microglia/macrophage phagocytes of red blood cells in peri-hematoma and reduced hematoma volume in mice with intracerebral hemorrhage. Additionally, knocking out ATAT1 alleviated neuronal apoptosis and pro-inflammatory cytokines and increased anti-inflammatory cytokines around the hematoma, ultimately improving neurological recovery of mice after intracerebral hemorrhage. These findings suggest that ATAT1 deficiency accelerates erythrophagocytosis by microglia/macrophages and hematoma absorption after intracerebral hemorrhage. These results provide novel insights into the mechanisms of hematoma clearance and suggest ATAT1 as a potential target for the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage.

[PMID: 38654318 PMCID: PMC11036653 DOI: 10.1186/s12987-024-00538-4] [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: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and associated hydrocephalus are significant complications of intracerebral and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Despite proximity to IVH, the immune cell response at the choroid plexus (ChP) has been relatively understudied. This study employs CX3CR-1GFP mice, which marks multiple immune cell populations, and immunohistochemistry to outline that response. METHODS This study had four parts all examining male adult CX3CR-1GFP mice. Part 1 examined naïve mice. In part 2, mice received an injection 30 µl of autologous blood into right ventricle and were euthanized at 24 h. In part 3, mice underwent intraventricular injection of saline, iron or peroxiredoxin 2 (Prx-2) and were euthanized at 24 h. In part 4, mice received intraventricular iron injection and were treated with either control or clodronate liposomes and were euthanized at 24 h. All mice underwent magnetic resonance imaging to quantify ventricular volume. The ChP immune cell response was examined by combining analysis of GFP(+) immune cells and immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS IVH and intraventricular iron or Prx-2 injection in CX3CR-1GFP mice all induced ventriculomegaly and activation of ChP immune cells. There were very marked increases in the numbers of ChP epiplexus macrophages, T lymphocytes and neutrophils. Co-injection of clodronate liposomes with iron reduced the ventriculomegaly which was associated with fewer epiplexus and stromal macrophages but not reduced T lymphocytes and neutrophils. CONCLUSION There is a marked immune cell response at the ChP in IVH involving epiplexus cells, T lymphocytes and neutrophils. The blood components iron and Prx-2 may play a role in eliciting that response. Reduction of ChP macrophages with clodronate liposomes reduced iron-induced ventriculomegaly suggesting that ChP macrophages may be a promising therapeutic target for managing IVH-induced hydrocephalus.

Abstract
Cerebrovascular diseases are a major cause of stroke and dementia, both requiring long-term care. These diseases involve multiple pathophysiologies, with mitochondrial dysfunction being a crucial contributor to the initiation of inflammation, apoptosis, and oxidative stress, resulting in injuries to neurovascular units that include neuronal cell death, endothelial cell death, glial activation, and blood-brain barrier disruption. To maintain brain homeostasis against these pathogenic conditions, brain immune cells, including border-associated macrophages and microglia, play significant roles as brain innate immunity cells in the pathophysiology of cerebrovascular injury. Although microglia have long been recognized as significant contributors to neuroinflammation, attention has recently shifted to border-associated macrophages, such as perivascular macrophages (PVMs), which have been studied based on their crucial roles in the brain. These cells are strategically positioned around the walls of brain vessels, where they mainly perform critical functions, such as perivascular drainage, cerebrovascular flexibility, phagocytic activity, antigen presentation, activation of inflammatory responses, and preservation of blood-brain barrier integrity. Although PVMs act as scavenger and surveillant cells under normal conditions, these cells exert harmful effects under pathological conditions. PVMs detect mitochondrial dysfunction in injured cells and implement pathological changes to regulate brain homeostasis. Therefore, PVMs are promising as they play a significant role in mitochondrial dysfunction and, in turn, disrupt the homeostatic condition. Herein, we summarize the significant roles of PVMs in cerebrovascular diseases, especially ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke and dementia, mainly in correlation with inflammation. A better understanding of the biology and pathobiology of PVMs may lead to new insights on and therapeutic strategies for cerebrovascular diseases.

Intracerebral hemorrhage-induced brain injury in mice: The role of peroxiredoxin 2-Toll-like receptor 4 inflammatory axis. CNS Neurosci Ther 2024; 30:e14681. [PMID: 38516845 PMCID: PMC10958402 DOI: 10.1111/cns.14681] [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: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Peroxiredoxin 2 (Prx2), an intracellular protein that regulates redox reactions, released from red blood cells is involved in inflammatory brain injury after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) may be crucial in this process. This study investigated the role of the Prx2-TLR4 inflammatory axis in brain injury following experimental ICH in mice. METHODS First, C57BL/6 mice received an intracaudate injection of autologous arterial blood or saline and their brains were harvested on day 1 to measure Prx2 levels. Second, mice received an intracaudate injection of either recombinant mouse Prx2 or saline. Third, the mice were co-injected with autologous arterial blood and conoidin A, a Prx2 inhibitor, or vehicle. Fourth, the mice received a Prx2 injection and were treated with TAK-242, a TLR4 antagonist, or saline (intraperitoneally). Behavioral tests, magnetic resonance imaging, western blot, immunohistochemistry/immunofluorescence staining, and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) were performed. RESULTS Brain Prx2 levels were elevated after autologous arterial blood injection. Intracaudate injection of Prx2 caused brain swelling, microglial activation, neutrophil infiltration, neuronal death, and neurological deficits. Co-injection of conoidin A attenuated autologous arterial blood-induced brain injury. TLR4 was expressed on the surface of microglia/macrophages and neutrophils and participated in Prx2-induced inflammation. TAK-242 treatment attenuated Prx2-induced inflammation and neurological deficits. CONCLUSIONS Prx2 can cause brain injury following ICH through the TLR4 pathway, revealing the Prx2-TLR4 inflammatory axis as a potential therapeutic target.

A novel strategy of integrating network pharmacology and transcriptome reveals antiapoptotic mechanisms of Buyang Huanwu Decoction in treating intracerebral hemorrhage. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 319:117123. [PMID: 37673200 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Revised: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/08/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Buyang Huanwu Decoction (BYHWD), as a traditional Chinese medical prescription, has been used to treat intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) for hundreds of years, but the antiapoptotic properties have not yet been studied. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aims to elucidate the antiapoptotic mechanism of BYHWD in ICH. MATERIALS AND METHODS The therapeutic effect of BYHWD on ICH was assessed by modified neurological severity scores (mNSS), foot fault, and histopathological staining. Then, we used a modified comprehensive strategy by integrating transcriptome and network pharmacology to reveal the underlying mechanism. TUNEL assay, qRT-PCR, and western blot were further applied to evaluate the antiapoptotic effect of BYHWD on ICH. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and plasmid transfections were implemented to validate the potential competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) mechanism of Sh2b3. RESULTS Network pharmacology analysis indicated that the regulation of the apoptotic process was the highest enriched GO term, and that MAP kinase activity, ERK1, and ERK2 cascade were strongly correlated. Transcriptome analysis screened 180 differentially expressed mRNAs, which were highly enriched in the immune system process and negative regulation of programmed cell death. By checking the literature, we found that Sh2b3 was of great importance to apoptosis by modulating MAPK cascades. TUNEL assay validated the anti-apoptotic effect of BYHWD. Moreover, BYHWD was proven to regulate the Sh2b3-mediated ERK1/2 signaling pathway in ICH mice by qRT-PCR and western blot. We further explored the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network underlying the therapeutic effect, among which 4933404O12Rik/miR-185-5p is the upstream regulatory mechanism of Sh2b3. CONCLUSIONS We explored the antiapoptotic mechanism of BYHWD in treating ICH by a novel integrated strategy, which involved the 4933404O12Rik/miR-185-5p/Sh2b3 ceRNAs axis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) has been associated with poor prognosis. The transsylvian insular approach (TIA) and the transcortical (TCA) approach are applied for patients with HICH. We aimed to compare the postoperative ICP parameters of TIA and TCA to identify which procedure yields better short-term outcomes in patients with basal ganglia hematoma volumes ranging from 30 to 50 mL. METHODS Eighty patients with basal ganglia hematomas 30-50 mL were enrolled in this study. Patients were implanted with ICP probes and divided into TIA and TCA groups according to the procedure. The ICP values were continuously recorded for five days at four-hour intervals. Short-term outcomes were evaluated using the length of hospitalization and postoperative consciousness recovery time. RESULTS No statistically significant differences were found in age, sex, GCS score at admission, hematoma volume, and hematoma clearance rate (p > 0.05). The results showed that postoperative initial ICP, ICP on the first postoperative day, mean ICP, DICP20 mmHg × 4 h, postoperative consciousness recovery time, the length of hospitalization, mannitol utilization rate and the mannitol dosage were lower in the TIA group than in the TCA group (p < 0.05). Postoperative consciousness recovery time was positively correlated with ICP on the first postoperative day, and the length of hospitalization was positively correlated with mean ICP. CONCLUSIONS TIA is more effective than TCA in improving the short-term outcomes of patients with basal ganglia hematoma volumes ranging from 30 to 50 mL according to comparisons of postoperative ICP parameters.

Enhanced liver X receptor signalling reduces brain injury and promotes tissue regeneration following experimental intracerebral haemorrhage: roles of microglia/macrophages. Stroke Vasc Neurol 2023; 8:486-502.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammation-exacerbated secondary brain injury and limited tissue regeneration are barriers to favourable prognosis after intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). As a regulator of inflammation and lipid metabolism, Liver X receptor (LXR) has the potential to alter microglia/macrophage (M/M) phenotype, and assist tissue repair by promoting cholesterol efflux and recycling from phagocytes. To support potential clinical translation, the benefits of enhanced LXR signalling are examined in experimental ICH. METHODS Collagenase-induced ICH mice were treated with the LXR agonist GW3965 or vehicle. Behavioural tests were conducted at multiple time points. Lesion and haematoma volume, and other brain parameters were assessed using multimodal MRI with T2-weighted, diffusion tensor imaging and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI sequences. The fixed brain cryosections were stained and confocal microscopy was applied to detect LXR downstream genes, M/M phenotype, lipid/cholesterol-laden phagocytes, oligodendrocyte lineage cells and neural stem cells. Western blot and real-time qPCR were also used. CX3CR1CreER: Rosa26iDTR mice were employed for M/M-depletion experiments. RESULTS GW3965 treatment reduced lesion volume and white matter injury, and promoted haematoma clearance. Treated mice upregulated LXR downstream genes including ABCA1 and Apolipoprotein E, and had reduced density of M/M that apparently shifted from proinflammatory interleukin-1β+ to Arginase1+CD206+ regulatory phenotype. Fewer cholesterol crystal or myelin debris-laden phagocytes were observed in GW3965 mice. LXR activation increased the number of Olig2+PDGFRα+ precursors and Olig2+CC1+ mature oligodendrocytes in perihaematomal regions, and elevated SOX2+ or nestin+ neural stem cells in lesion and subventricular zone. MRI results supported better lesion recovery by GW3965, and this was corroborated by return to pre-ICH values of functional rotarod activity. The therapeutic effects of GW3965 were abrogated by M/M depletion in CX3CR1CreER: Rosa26iDTR mice. CONCLUSIONS LXR agonism using GW3965 reduced brain injury, promoted beneficial properties of M/M and facilitated tissue repair correspondent with enhanced cholesterol recycling.

Abstract
CD47 is a 50 kDa five-spanning membrane receptor that plays a crucial role in multiple cellular processes, including myeloid cell activation, neutrophils transmigration, vascular remodeling, leukocyte adhesion and trans-endothelial migration. Recent studies have revealed that CD47 is a highly expressed anti-phagocytic signal in several types of cancer, and therefore, blocking of CD47 has shown an effective therapeutic potential in cancer immunotherapy. In addition, CD47 has been found to be involved in a complex interplay with microglia and other types of cells, and increasing evidence indicates that CD47 can be targeted as part of immune modulatory strategies for non-neoplastic diseases as well. In this review, we focus on CD47 and its role in non-neoplastic diseases, including neurological disorders, atherosclerosis and autoimmune diseases. In addition, we discuss the major challenges and potential remedies associated with CD47-SIRPα-based immunotherapies.

A systematic review of the cell death mechanisms in retinal pigment epithelium cells and photoreceptors after subretinal hemorrhage - Implications for treatment options. Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 167:115572. [PMID: 37742603 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2023] [Revised: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Humans rely on vision as their most important sense. This is accomplished by photoreceptors (PRs) in the retina that detect light but cannot function without the support and maintenance of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). In subretinal hemorrhage (SRH), blood accumulates between the neurosensory retina and the RPE or between the RPE and the choroid. Blood breakdown products subsequently damage PRs and the RPE and lead to poor vision and blindness. Hence, there is a high need for options to preserve the retina and visual functions. We conducted a systematic review of the literature in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines to identify the cell death mechanisms in RPE and PRs after SRH to deepen our understanding of the pathways involved. After screening 736 publications published until November 8, 2022, we identified 19 records that assessed cell death in PRs and/or RPE in experimental models of SRH. Among the different cell death mechanisms, apoptosis was the most widely investigated mechanism (11 records), followed by ferroptosis (4), whereas necroptosis, pyroptosis, and lysosome-dependent cell death were only assessed in one study each. We discuss different therapeutic options that were assessed in these studies, including the removal of the hematoma/iron chelation, cytoprotection, anti-inflammatory agents, and antioxidants. Further systematic investigations will be necessary to determine the exact cell death mechanisms after SRH with respect to different blood breakdown components, cell types, and time courses. This will form the basis for the development of novel treatment options for SRH.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:14771. [PMID: 37834220 PMCID: PMC10572659 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241914771] [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: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
The neuroinflammatory response after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) causes a large amount of neuronal loss, and inhibiting the inflammatory response can improve the prognosis. In previous laboratory studies and clinical trials, ursolic acid (UA) inhibited the inflammatory response, but whether it can be administered to inhibit the neuroinflammatory response after cerebral hemorrhage is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ursolic acid after cerebral hemorrhage. Online databases were used to obtain potential therapeutic targets of ursolic acid for the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage, and possible mechanisms were analyzed by KEGG, GO, and molecular docking. A rat model of cerebral hemorrhage was established using collagenase, and an in vitro cerebral hemorrhage model was constructed by adding hemin to BV2 cell culture medium. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Western blotting (WB), immunofluorescence, TUNEL staining, and calcein/PI staining were used to investigate the degree of microglial M1 polarization, changes in the levels of inflammatory factors, activation of the NF-κB pathway, and changes in the indicators of cellular death after ursolic acid treatment. In addition, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) was used to activate the NF-κB pathway to verify that ursolic acid exerts its anti-neuroinflammatory effects by regulating the NF-κB/NLRP3/GSDMD pathway. Network pharmacology and bioinformatics analyses revealed that ursolic acid may exert its therapeutic effects on cerebral hemorrhage through multiple pathways. Together, in vivo and in vitro experiments showed that ursolic acid inhibited microglial M1 polarization and significantly reduced the levels of p-NF-κB, GSDMD-N, cleaved caspase-1, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, which were significantly inhibited by the use of PMA. Ursolic acid inhibits microglial pyroptosis via the NF-κB/NLRP3/GSDMD pathway to alleviate neuroinflammatory responses after cerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
Both monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) and brain resident microglia participate in hematoma resolution after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Here, we utilized a transgenic mouse line with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) labeled microglia (Tmem119-EGFP mice) combined with a F4/80 immunohistochemistry (a pan-macrophage marker) to visualize changes in MDMs and microglia after ICH. A murine model of ICH was used in which autologous blood was stereotactically injected into the right basal ganglia. The autologous blood was co-injected with CD47 blocking antibodies to enhance phagocytosis or clodronate liposomes for phagocyte depletion. In addition, Tmem119-EGFP mice were injected with the blood components peroxiredoxin 2 (Prx2) or thrombin. MDMs entered the brain and formed a peri-hematoma cell layer by day 3 after ICH and giant phagocytes engulfed red blood cells were found. CD47 blocking antibody increased the number of MDMs around and inside the hematoma and extended MDM phagocytic activity to day 7. Both MDMs and microglia could be diminished by clodronate liposomes. Intracerebral injection of Prx2 but not thrombin attracted MDMs into brain parenchyma. In conclusion, MDMs play an important role in phagocytosis after ICH which can be enhanced by CD47 blocking antibody, suggesting the modulation of MDMs after ICH could be a future therapeutic target.

Abstract
Stroke, including ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, causes massive cell death in the brain, which is followed by secondary inflammatory injury initiated by disease-associated molecular patterns released from dead cells. Phagocytosis, a cellular process of engulfment and digestion of dead cells, promotes the resolution of inflammation and repair following stroke. However, professional or non-professional phagocytes also phagocytose stressed but viable cells in the brain or excessively phagocytose myelin sheaths or prune synapses, consequently exacerbating brain injury and impairing repair following stroke. Phagocytosis includes the smell, eating and digestion phases. Notably, efficient phagocytosis critically depends on phagocyte capacity to take up dead cells continually due to the limited number of phagocytes vs. dead cells after injury. Moreover, phenotypic polarization of phagocytes occurring after phagocytosis is also essential to the proresolving and prorepair properties of phagocytosis. Much has been learned about the molecular signals and regulatory mechanisms governing the sense and recognition of dead cells by phagocytes during the smell and eating phase following stroke. However, some key areas remain extremely understudied, including the mechanisms involved in digestion regulation, continual phagocytosis and phagocytosis-induced phenotypic switching following stroke. Here, we summarize new discoveries related to the molecular mechanisms and multifaceted effects of phagocytosis on brain injury and repair following stroke and highlight the knowledge gaps in poststroke phagocytosis. We suggest that advancing the understanding of poststroke phagocytosis will help identify more biological targets for stroke treatment.

Complement Drives Chronic Inflammation and Progressive Hydrocephalus in Murine Neonatal Germinal Matrix Hemorrhage. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:10171.

Abstract
Germinal matrix hemorrhage (GMH) is a pathology that occurs in infancy, with often devastating long-term consequences. Posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH) can develop acutely, while periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) is a chronic sequala. There are no pharmacological therapies to treat PHH and PVL. We investigated different aspects of the complement pathway in acute and chronic outcomes after murine neonatal GMH induced at postnatal day 4 (P4). Following GMH-induction, the cytolytic complement membrane attack complex (MAC) colocalized with infiltrating red blood cells (RBCs) acutely but not in animals treated with the complement inhibitor CR2-Crry. Acute MAC deposition on RBCs was associated with heme oxygenase-1 expression and heme and iron deposition, which was reduced with CR2-Crry treatment. Complement inhibition also reduced hydrocephalus and improved survival. Following GMH, there were structural alterations in specific brain regions linked to motor and cognitive functions, and these changes were ameliorated by CR2-Crry, as measured at various timepoints through P90. Astrocytosis was reduced in CR2-Crry-treated animals at chronic, but not acute, timepoints. At P90, myelin basic protein and LAMP-1 colocalized, indicating chronic ongoing phagocytosis of white matter, which was reduced by CR2-Crry treatment. Data indicate acute MAC-mediated iron-related toxicity and inflammation exacerbated the chronic effects of GMH.

Front Neurol 2023; 14:1131283.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of stereotactic minimally invasive puncture with different catheter placement positions when combined with urokinase thrombolysis for the treatment of small- and medium-volume basal ganglia hemorrhage. Our goal was to identify the best minimally invasive catheter placement position to enhance therapeutic efficacy for patients with cerebral hemorrhage. Methods The stereotactic minimally invasive thrombolysis at different catheter positions in the treatment of small- and medium-volume basal ganglia hemorrhage (SMITDCPI) was a randomized, controlled, and endpoint phase 1 trial. We recruited patients with spontaneous ganglia hemorrhage (medium-to-small and medium volume) who were treated in our hospital. All patients received stereotactic, minimally invasive punctures combined with an intracavitary thrombolytic injection of urokinase hematoma. A randomized number table method was used to divide the patients into two groups concerning the location of catheterization: a penetrating hematoma long-axis group and a hematoma center group. The general conditions of the two groups of patients were compared, and the data were analyzed, including the time of catheterization, the dosage of urokinase, the amount of residual hematoma, the hematoma clearance rate, complications, and the National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) score data at 1 month after surgery. Results Between June 2019 and March 2022, 83 patients were randomly recruited and assigned to the two groups as follows: 42 cases (50.60%) to the penetrating hematoma long-axis group and 41 cases (49.40%) to the hematoma center group. Compared with the hematoma center group, the long-axis group was associated with a significantly shorter catheterization time, a lower urokinase dose, a lower residual hematoma volume, a higher hematoma clearance rate, and fewer complications (P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of the NIHSS scores when tested 1 month after surgery (P > 0.05). Conclusion Stereotactic minimally invasive puncture combined with urokinase for the treatment of small- and medium-volume hemorrhage in the basal ganglia, including catheterization through the long axis of the hematoma, led to significantly better drainage effects and fewer complications. However, there was no significant difference in short-term NIHSS scores between the two types of catheterization.

Abstract
Evidence indicates that erythrocyte-derived iron and inflammation both play a role in intraventricular hemorrhage-induced brain injury including hydrocephalus. Many immune-associated cells, primarily stromal macrophages, reside at the choroid plexus where they are involved in inflammatory responses and antigen presentation. However, whether intraventricular iron impacts those stromal cells is unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between choroid plexus stromal macrophages and iron-induced hydrocephalus in rats and the impact of minocycline and clodronate liposomes on those changes. Aged (18-month-old) and young (3-month-old) male Fischer 344 rats were used to study choroid plexus stromal macrophages. Rats underwent intraventricular iron injection to induce hydrocephalus and treated with either minocycline, a microglia/macrophage inhibitor, or clodronate liposomes, a macrophage depleting agent. Ventricular volume was measured using magnetic resonance imaging, and stromal macrophages were quantified by immunofluorescence staining. We found that stromal macrophages accounted for about 10% of the total choroid plexus cells with more in aged rats. In both aged and young rats, intraventricular iron injection resulted in hydrocephalus and increased stromal macrophage number. Minocycline or clodronate liposomes ameliorated iron-induced hydrocephalus and the increase in stromal macrophages. In conclusion, stromal macrophages account for ~10% of all choroid plexus cells, with more in aged rats. Treatments targeting macrophages (minocycline and clodronate liposomes) are associated with reduced iron-induced hydrocephalus.

Abstract
Non-traumatic intraparenchymal brain hemorrhage is referred to as intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Although ICH is associated with a high rate of disability and case fatality, active intervention can significantly lower the rate of severe disability. Studies have shown that the speed of hematoma clearance after ICH determines the patient's prognosis. Following ICH, depending on the hematoma volume and mass effect, either surgical- or medication-only conservative treatment is chosen. The goal of promoting endogenous hematoma absorption is more relevant because surgery is only appropriate for a small percentage of patients, and open surgery can cause additional trauma to patients. The primary method of removing hematoma after ICH in the future will involve understanding how to produce and manage macrophage/microglial endogenous phagocytic hematomas. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms and key targets for clinical purposes.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic stroke is the deadliest form of stroke and includes the subtypes of intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage. A common cause of hemorrhagic stroke in older individuals is cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage both lead to the rapid collection of blood in the central nervous system and generate inflammatory immune responses that involve both brain resident and infiltrating immune cells. These responses are complex and can contribute to both tissue recovery and tissue injury. Despite the interconnectedness of these major subtypes of hemorrhagic stroke, few reviews have discussed them collectively. The present review provides an update on inflammatory processes that occur in response to intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage, and the role of inflammation in the pathophysiology of cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related hemorrhage. The goal is to highlight inflammatory processes that underlie disease pathology and recovery. We aim to discuss recent advances in our understanding of these conditions and identify gaps in knowledge with the potential to develop effective therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Stroke constitutes the second highest cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide while also impacting the world economy, triggering substantial financial burden in national health systems. High levels of blood glucose, homocysteine, and cholesterol are causative factors for atherothrombosis. These molecules induce erythrocyte dysfunction, which can culminate in atherosclerosis, thrombosis, thrombus stabilization, and post-stroke hypoxia. Glucose, toxic lipids, and homocysteine result in erythrocyte oxidative stress. This leads to phosphatidylserine exposure, promoting phagocytosis. Phagocytosis by endothelial cells, intraplaque macrophages, and vascular smooth muscle cells contribute to the expansion of the atherosclerotic plaque. In addition, oxidative stress-induced erythrocytes and endothelial cell arginase upregulation limit the pool for nitric oxide synthesis, leading to endothelial activation. Increased arginase activity may also lead to the formation of polyamines, which limit the deformability of red blood cells, hence facilitating erythrophagocytosis. Erythrocytes can also participate in the activation of platelets through the release of ADP and ATP and the activation of death receptors and pro-thrombin. Damaged erythrocytes can also associate with neutrophil extracellular traps and subsequently activate T lymphocytes. In addition, reduced levels of CD47 protein in the surface of red blood cells can also lead to erythrophagocytosis and a reduced association with fibrinogen. In the ischemic tissue, impaired erythrocyte 2,3 biphosphoglycerate, because of obesity or aging, can also favor hypoxic brain inflammation, while the release of damage molecules can lead to further erythrocyte dysfunction and death.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the most dangerous types of strokes with a high morbidity and mortality rate. Currently, the treatment of ICH is not well developed, mainly because its mechanisms are still unclear. Inflammation is one of the main types of secondary injury after ICH and catalyzes the adverse consequences of ICH. A large number of immune cells are involved in neuroinflammation, such as microglia, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, lymphocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils. Nevertheless, the characteristics and crosstalk of immune cells have not been fully elucidated. In this review, we endeavor to delve into the respective characteristics of immune cells and their interactions in neuroimmune inflammation, and further elucidate favorable immunotherapeutic approaches regarding ICH, and finally present an outlook.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common cerebrovascular disorder with high morbidity and mortality. Secondary brain injury after ICH, which is initiated by multiple hemolytic products during erythrolysis, has been identified as a critical factor accounting for the poor prognosis of ICH patients. Clot resolution and hematoma clearance occur immediately after ICH via erythrolysis and erythrophagocytosis. During this process, erythrolysis after ICH results in the release of hemoglobin and products of degradation along with rapid morphological changes in red blood cells (RBCs). Phagocytosis of deformed erythrocytes and products of degradation by microglia/macrophages accelerates hematoma clearance, which turns out to be neuroprotective. Thus, a better understanding of the mechanism of erythrolysis and the role of microglia/macrophages after ICH is urgently needed. In this review, the current research progresses on the underlying mechanism of erythrolysis and erythrophagocytosis, as well as several useful tools for the quantification of erythrolysis-induced brain injury, are summarized, providing potential intervention targets and possible treatment strategies for ICH patients.

Abstract
Intracranial hematomas (ICH) are a frequent condition in neurosurgical and neurological practices, with several mechanisms of primary and secondary injury. Experimental research has been fundamental for the understanding of the pathophysiology implicated with ICH and the development of therapeutic interventions. To date, a variety of different animal approaches have been described that consider, for example, the ICH evolutive phase, molecular implications and hemodynamic changes. Therefore, choosing a test protocol should consider the scope of each particular study. The present review summarized investigational protocols in experimental research on the subject of ICH. With this subject, injection of autologous blood or bacterial collagenase, inflation of intracranial balloon and avulsion of cerebral vessels were the models identified. Rodents (mice) and swine were the most frequent species used. These different models allowed improvements on the understanding of intracranial hypertension establishment, neuroinflammation, immunology, brain hemodynamics and served to the development of therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microglia are important brain immune cells. However, it is difficult to differentiate microglia from monocyte-derived macrophages. To visualize microglia changes following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), we utilized a genetic knock-in mouse line, Tmem119 (transmembrane protein 119)-EGFP (enhanced green fluorescent protein), which expresses EGFP specifically in microglia. METHODS There were 2 parts in this study. First, autologous blood was injected into the right basal ganglia to model ICH in Tmem119-EGFP mice. Mice were euthanized at 4 hours, days 1, 3, and 7 after ICH. Sham animals were used as controls. Second, Tmem119-EGFP mice were injected with iron or thrombin, factors involved in ICH-induced injury, and were euthanized at 4 hours. Naïve mice were controls. Brains were harvested for histology. RESULTS The number of perihematomal microglia significantly decreased 1 day after ICH, but markedly increased by days 3 and 7. Microglia death was also induced by intracerebral iron injection while microglia proliferation was found with intracerebral thrombin injection. CONCLUSIONS Perihematomal microglia death and proliferation after ICH are visualized in vivo with a Tmem119-EGFP transgenic mouse line. Iron and thrombin may contribute to ICH-induced microglia death and proliferation, respectively.

Abstract
Microglia are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS) and play a key role in neurological diseases, including intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Microglia are activated to acquire either pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory phenotypes. After the onset of ICH, pro-inflammatory mediators produced by microglia at the early stages serve as a crucial character in neuroinflammation. Conversely, switching the microglial shift to an anti-inflammatory phenotype could alleviate inflammatory response and incite recovery. This review will elucidate the dynamic profiles of microglia phenotypes and their available shift following ICH. This study can facilitate an understanding of the self-regulatory functions of the immune system involving the shift of microglia phenotypes in ICH. Moreover, suggestions for future preclinical and clinical research and potential intervention strategies are discussed.

Abstract
After a cerebral hemorrhage (intracerebral, subarachnoid, and intraventricular), extravasated blood contributes to both initial brain injury, via physical disruption and mass effect, and secondary injury, through the release of potentially neurotoxic and pro-inflammatory factors such as hemoglobin, iron, and peroxiredoxin-2. Erythrocytes are a major blood component and are a source of such damaging factors. Erythrolysis after cerebral hemorrhage releases potential neurotoxins, contributing to brain injury and edema. Alternatively, erythrocyte phagocytosis via microglia or macrophages may limit the spill of neurotoxins therefore limiting subsequent brain injury. The aim of this review is to discuss the process of phagocytosis of erythrocytes by microglia or macrophages after cerebral hemorrhage, the effect of erythrolysis on brain injury, novel mechanisms of erythrocyte and phagocyte egress from the brain, and exciting new targets in this pathway to attenuate brain injury. Understanding the fate of erythrocytes after cerebral hemorrhage may uncover additional potential interventions for clinical translational research.

Molecular, Pathological, Clinical, and Therapeutic Aspects of Perihematomal Edema in Different Stages of Intracerebral Hemorrhage. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:3948921.

Abstract
Acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating type of stroke worldwide. Neuronal destruction involved in the brain damage process caused by ICH includes a primary injury formed by the mass effect of the hematoma and a secondary injury induced by the degradation products of a blood clot. Additionally, factors in the coagulation cascade and complement activation process also contribute to secondary brain injury by promoting the disruption of the blood-brain barrier and neuronal cell degeneration by enhancing the inflammatory response, oxidative stress, etc. Although treatment options for direct damage are limited, various strategies have been proposed to treat secondary injury post-ICH. Perihematomal edema (PHE) is a potential surrogate marker for secondary injury and may contribute to poor outcomes after ICH. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the underlying pathological mechanism, evolution, and potential therapeutic strategies to treat PHE. Here, we review the pathophysiology and imaging characteristics of PHE at different stages after acute ICH. As illustrated in preclinical and clinical studies, we discussed the merits and limitations of varying PHE quantification protocols, including absolute PHE volume, relative PHE volume, and extension distance calculated with images and other techniques. Importantly, this review summarizes the factors that affect PHE by focusing on traditional variables, the cerebral venous drainage system, and the brain lymphatic drainage system. Finally, to facilitate translational research, we analyze why the relationship between PHE and the functional outcome of ICH is currently controversial. We also emphasize promising therapeutic approaches that modulate multiple targets to alleviate PHE and promote neurologic recovery after acute ICH.

Abstract
AIMS Phagocytosis is the cellular digestion of extracellular particles, such as pathogens and dying cells, and is a key element in the evolution of central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Microglia and macrophages are the professional phagocytes of the CNS. By clearing toxic cellular debris and reshaping the extracellular matrix, microglia/macrophages help pilot the brain repair and functional recovery process. However, CNS resident and invading immune cells can also magnify tissue damage by igniting runaway inflammation and phagocytosing stressed-but viable-neurons. DISCUSSION Microglia/macrophages help mediate intercellular communication and react quickly to the "find-me" signals expressed by dead/dying neurons. The activated microglia/macrophages then migrate to the injury site to initiate the phagocytic process upon encountering "eat-me" signals on the surfaces of endangered cells. Thus, healthy cells attempt to avoid inappropriate engulfment by expressing "do not-eat-me" signals. Microglia/macrophages also have the capacity to phagocytose immune cells that invade the injured brain (e.g., neutrophils) and to regulate their pro-inflammatory properties. During brain recovery, microglia/macrophages engulf myelin debris, initiate synaptogenesis and neurogenesis, and sculpt a favorable extracellular matrix to support network rewiring, among other favorable roles. Here, we review the multilayered nature of phagocytotic microglia/macrophages, including the molecular and cellular mechanisms that govern microglia/macrophage-induced phagocytosis in acute brain injury, and discuss strategies that tap into the therapeutic potential of this engulfment process. CONCLUSION Identification of biological targets that can temper neuroinflammation after brain injury without hindering the essential phagocytic functions of microglia/macrophages will expedite better medical management of the stroke recovery stage.

Abstract
Erythrocytes undergo certain morphological changes resembling apoptosis during senescence or in an abnormal state/site, which is termed eryptosis. This process is characterized by phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure, membrane blebbing, and cell shrinkage. Eryptotic erythrocytes are subsequently removed via macrophage-mediated efferocytosis. In hemorrhagic stroke (HS), blood within an artery rapidly bleeds into the brain tissue or the subarachnoid space, resulting in severe neurological deficits. A hypoxic, over-oxidative, and pro-inflammatory microenvironment in the hematoma leads to oxidative stress, hyperosmotic shock, energy depletion, and Cl– removal in erythrocytes, which eventually triggers eryptosis. In addition, eryptosis following intracerebral hemorrhage favors hematoma clearance, which sheds light on a common mechanism of intrinsic phagocytosis. In this review, we summarized the canonical mechanisms of eryptosis and discussed its pathological conditions associated with HS. Understanding the role of eryptosis in HS may uncover additional potential interventions for further translational clinical research.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) causes devastating morbidity and mortality, and studies have shown that the toxic components of hematomas play key roles in brain damage after ICH. Recent studies have found that TLR9 participates in regulating the phagocytosis of peripheral macrophages. The current study examined the role of TLR9 in macrophage/microglial (M/M) function after ICH. METHODS RAW264.7 (macrophage), BV2 (microglia), and HT22# (neurons) cell lines were transfected with lentivirus for TLR9 overexpression. Whole blood from C57BL/6 or EGFPTg/+ mice was infused for phagocytosis and injury experiments, and brusatol was used for the experiments. Intraperitoneal injection of the TLR9 agonist ODN1826 or control ODN2138 was performed on days 1, 3, 5, 7, and 28 after ICH to study the effects of TLR9 in mice. In addition, clodronate was coinjected in M/M elimination experiments. The brains were collected for histological and protein experiments at different time points after ICH induction. Cellular and histological methods were used to measure hematoma/iron residual, M/Ms variation, neural injury, and brain tissue loss. Behavioral tests were performed premodeling and on days 1, 3, 7, and 28 post-ICH. RESULTS Overexpression of TLR9 facilitated M/M phagocytosis and protected neurons from blood-derived hazards in vitro. Furthermore, ODN1826 boosted M/M activation and phagocytic function, facilitated hematoma/iron resolution, reduced brain injury, and improved neurological function recovery in ICH mice, which were abolished by clodronate injection. The experimental results indicated that the Nrf2/CD204 pathway participated in TLR9-induced M/M phagocytosis after ICH. CONCLUSION Our study suggests a protective role for TLR9-enhanced M/M phagocytosis via the Nrf2/CD204 pathway after ICH. Our findings may serve as potential targets for ICH treatment.

Abstract
Melanoma is a cancer of melanocytes present at the basal layer of the skin. Nanomedicine has armed us with competent platform to manage such fatal neoplastic diseases. Nevertheless, it suffers from numerous pitfalls such as rapid clearance and opsonization of surface-functionalized carriers, biocompatibility and idiopathic reactions which could be difficult to predict in the patient. Biomimetic approach, a novel step towards personalized medicine bridges these drawbacks by employing endogenous cell membranes to traverse physiological barriers. Camouflaged carriers coated with natural cell membranes possess unique characteristics such as high circulatory periods, and the absence of allogenic and xenogenic responses. Proteins residing on the cell membranes render a diverse range of utilities to the coated nanoparticles including natural efficiency to identify cellular targets, homologous targeting, reticuloendothelial system evasion, biocompatibility and reduced adverse and idiopathic effects. In the present article, we have focused on cell membrane camouflaged nanocarriers for melanoma management. We have discussed various types of biomimetic systems, their processing and coating approaches, and their characterization. We have also enumerated novel avenues in melanoma treatment and the combination of biomimetic systems with smart nanoparticulate systems with the potential to bring breakthroughs in the near future. Additionally, immunotherapy-based biomimetic systems to combat melanoma have been highlighted. Hurdles towards clinical translation and ways to overcome them have been explained in detail.

Brain Peri-Hematomal Area, a Strategic Interface for Blood Clearance: A Human Neuropathological and Transcriptomic Study. Stroke 2022; 53:2026-2035.

Abstract
Background:
Enhancing the blood clearance process is a promising therapeutic strategy for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to investigate the kinetic of this process after ICH in human brain tissue through the monocyte-macrophage scavenger receptor (CD163)/HO-1 (hemoxygenase-1) pathway.
Methods:
We led a cross-sectional post-mortem study including 22 consecutive ICH cases (2005–2019) from the Lille Neurobank. Cases were grouped according to the time of death: ≤72 hours, 4 to 7 days, 8 to 15 days, 16 to 90 days, and >90 days after ICH onset. Paraffin-embedded tissue was extracted from 4 strategic areas, including hematoma core and peri-hematomal area to perform histological investigations. Additionally, we extracted RNA from the peri-hematomal area of 6 cases to perform transcriptomic analysis.
Results:
We included 19 ICH cases (median age: 79 [71–89] years; median delay ICH-death: 13 [5–41] days). The peri-hematomal area concentrated most of reactive microglia, CD163/HO-1 and iron deposits as compared with other brain areas. We found a surge in the blood clearance process from day 8 to day 15 after ICH onset. Transcriptomic analysis showed that HO-1 was the most upregulated gene (2.81±0.39, adjusted
P
=1.11×10
–10
) and CD163 the sixth (1.49±0.29, adjusted
P
=1.68×10
–
5
). We also identified several upregulated genes that exert a beneficial role in terminating inflammation and enhancing tissue repair.
Conclusions:
We provide histological and transcriptomic-based evidence in humans for the key role of peri-hematomal area in endogenous blood clearance process through the CD163/HO-1 pathway, especially from day 8 after ICH and favored by an anti-inflammatory environment. Our findings contribute to identify innovative therapeutic strategies for ICH.

Abstract
Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in both neonatal and adult populations. IVH not only causes immediate damage to surrounding structures by way of mass effect and elevated intracranial pressure; the subsequent inflammation causes additional brain injury and edema. Of those neonates who experience severe IVH, 25-30% will go on to develop post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH). PHH places neonates and adults at risk for white matter injury, seizures, and death. Unfortunately, the molecular determinants of PHH are not well understood. Within the past decade an emphasis has been placed on neuroinflammation in IVH and PHH. More information has come to light regarding inflammation-induced fibrosis and cerebrospinal fluid hypersecretion in response to IVH. The aim of this review is to discuss the role of neuroinflammation involving clot-derived neuroinflammatory factors including hemoglobin/iron, peroxiredoxin-2 and thrombin, as well as macrophages/microglia, cytokines and complement in the development of PHH. Understanding the mechanisms of neuroinflammation after IVH may highlight potential novel therapeutic targets for PHH.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Microglia and macrophages participate in hematoma clearance after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), thereby facilitating tissue restoration and neurological recovery. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (Trem2) has been indicated as a major pathology-induced immune signaling hub on the microglial/macrophage surface. Soluble Trem2 (sTrem2), the proteolytic form of Trem2, is abundant in the body fluid and is positively correlated with the pathological process. OBJECTIVES In the present study, we aimed to investigate the potential role of sTrem2 in hematoma resolution after ICH and to elucidate its underlying mechanisms. METHODS We explored the biological functions of sTrem2 in the murine ICH brain by stereotaxic injection of recombinant sTrem2 protein or by adeno-associated virus-mediated expression. Erythrocyte phagocytosis was assessed using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence. Western blotting was performed to evaluate protein expression. Changes in behavior, sTrem2-induced down-stream pathway, and microglia were examined. RESULTS sTrem2 impedes hematoma resolution and impairs functional motor and sensory recovery. Interestingly, sTrem2 bypasses full-length Trem2, negatively regulating microglial/macrophage erythrophagocytosis, and promotes an inflammatory phenotype, which is associated with reduced retromer levels and impaired recycling of the pro-erythrophagocytic receptor CD36. Rescue of retromer Vps35 abolishes the phagocytosis-inhibiting effects and lysosome-dependent CD36 degradation caused by sTrem2. CONCLUSION These findings indicate sTrem2 as a negative factor against microglia/macrophage-mediated hematoma and related neuronal damage clearance, provide insight into the mechanisms by which erythrophagocytosis is regulated and how it may be impaired after ICH, and suggest that the anti-proteolytic activity of Trem2 can be explored for ICH therapy.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is an important subtype of stroke with an unsatisfactory prognosis of high mortality and disability. Although many pre-clinical studies and clinical trials have been performed in the past decades, effective therapy that meaningfully improve prognosis and outcomes of ICH patients is still lacking. An active area of research is towards alleviating secondary brain injury after ICH through neuroprotective pharmaceuticals and in which minocycline is a promising candidate. Here, we will first discuss new insights into the protective mechanisms of minocycline for ICH including reducing iron-related toxicity, maintenance of blood-brain barrier, and alleviating different types of cell death from preclinical data, then consider its shortcomings. Finally, we will review clinical trial perspectives for minocycline in ICH. We hope that this summary and discussion about updated information on minocycline as a viable treatment for ICH can facilitate further investigations.

Abstract
Aims Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating stroke subtype. Following SAH, erythrocyte lysis contributes to cell death and brain injuries. Blockage of the anti-phagocytic receptor Cluster of Differentiation 47 (CD47) enhances phagocyte clearance of erythrocytes, though it has not been well-studied post-SAH. The current study aims to determine whether anti-CD47 treatment can enhance blood clearance after experimental SAH. Methods The prechiasmatic blood injection model of SAH was used in mice. Mice were either treated with the CD47-blocking antibody or IgG as control. The effect of the anti-CD47 antibody on blood clearance and neurological function following SAH was determined. Neuroinflammation and neuronal injury were compared between the treatment and control samples on day 1 and day 7 after SAH using flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, Fluoro-Jade C, and Nissl staining, RT-PCR, and Western blot analysis. Results CD47-blocking antibody sped-up blood clearance after SAH, and resulted in less neuronal injury and neurological deficits than control samples. Microglia played a role in the anti-CD47 blockade. Following SAH Following SAH, CD47 antibody-treated mice had less neuroinflammation and lower levels of apoptosis compared to controls and both one and 7 days. Conclusions CD47 antibody treatment has a neuroprotective effect following SAH, by increasing blood clearance rate and reducing brain injury. These findings suggest CD47 antibody treatment may improve SAH patient outcomes.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating condition characterized by hematoma related mass effect. Microglia/macrophage (M φ) are rapidly recruited in order to remove the red blood cells through erythrophagocytosis. Efficient erythrophagocytosis can detoxify hemolytic products and facilitate neurological recovery after ICH. The underlying mechanisms include modulation of inflammatory response and oxidative stress, among others. It is a dynamic process mediated by a cascade of signal transduction, including “find-me” signals, “eat-me” signals and a set of phagocytotic receptors-ligand pairs that may be exploited as therapeutic targets. This review summarizes mechanistic signaling pathways of erythrophagocytosis and highlights the potential of harnessing M φ-mediated phagocytosis for ICH treatment.

Abstract
Background:
Promotion of hematoma resolution in a timely manner reduces intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) brain injury induced by toxic blood components and subsequent neuroinflammation. The meningeal lymphatic system is responsible for clearance of macromolecules and pathogenic substances from the central nervous system; however, its role in intraparenchymal hematoma clearance and ICH outcomes is unknown. In the present study, we aimed to understand the contribution of the meningeal lymphatic system to ICH pathologies and to test whether pharmacological enhancement of meningeal lymphatic function promotes hematoma resolution and brain recovery after ICH.
Methods:
Immunofluorescence of whole-mount meninges was used to measure complexity and coverage level of meningeal lymphatic vasculature following ICH induction. Fluorescent microbeads and PKH-26-labeled erythrocytes were used to evaluate drainage function of the meningeal lymphatic system. Visudyne treatment, deep cervical lymph node ligation, and VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor)-C injection were performed to manipulate meningeal lymphatic function. Neurobehavioral performance and hematoma volume were assayed by the cylinder test and histological measurements. Iron deposition, residual erythrocytes, neuronal loss, and astrogliosis were assessed by immunohistochemistry and antibody-based fluorescence staining.
Results:
Meningeal lymphangiogenesis and enhanced lymphatic drainage occurred during the late phase of ICH. Ablation and blockage of meningeal lymphatic vessels impeded hematoma clearance, whereas pharmacological enhancement of their function reduced hematoma volume, improved behavioral performance, and reduced brain residual erythrocytes, iron deposition, neuronal loss, and astroglial activation.
Conclusions:
Early enhancement of meningeal lymphatic function is beneficial for ICH recovery. Targeting the meningeal lymphatic system is therefore a potential therapeutic approach for treating ICH.

Abstract
Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is the second most common type of stroke and a major cause of mortality and disability worldwide. Despite advances in surgical interventions and acute ICH management, there is currently no effective therapy to improve functional outcomes in patients. Recently, there has been tremendous progress uncovering new pathophysiological mechanisms underlying ICH that may pave the way for the development of therapeutic interventions. Here, we highlight emerging targets, but also existing gaps in preclinical animal modelling that prevent their exploitation. We particularly focus on (1) ICH aetiology, (2) the haematoma, (3) inflammation, and (4) post-ICH pathology. It is important to recognize that beyond neurons and the brain, other cell types and organs are crucially involved in ICH pathophysiology and successful interventions likely will need to address the entire organism. This review will spur the development of successful therapeutic interventions for ICH and advanced animal models that better reflect its aetiology and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Microglia are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system that exert diverse roles in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. During the past decades, microglial polarization and chemotactic properties have been well-studied, whereas less attention has been paid to phagocytic phenotypes of microglia in stroke. Generally, whether phagocytosis mediated by microglia plays a beneficial or detrimental role in stroke remains controversial, which calls for further investigations. Most researchers are in favor of the former proposal currently since efficient clearance of tissue debris promotes tissue reconstruction and neuronal network reorganization in part. Other scholars propose that excessively activated microglia engulf live or stressed neuronal cells, which results in neurological deficits and brain atrophy. Upon ischemia challenge, the microglia infiltrate injured brain tissue and engulf live/dead neurons, myelin debris, apoptotic cell debris, endothelial cells, and leukocytes. Cell phagocytosis is provoked by the exposure of "eat-me" signals or the loss of "don't eat-me" signals. We supposed that microglial phagocytosis could be initiated by the specific "eat-me" signal and its corresponding receptor on the specific cell type under pathological circumstances. In this review, we will summarize phagocytic characterizations of microglia after stroke and the potential receptors responsible for this programmed biological progress. Understanding these questions precisely may help to develop appropriate phagocytic regulatory molecules, which are promoting self-limiting inflammation without damaging functional cells.

Abstract
Stroke has become the second leading cause of death in people aged higher than 60 years, with cancer being the first. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most lethal type of stroke. Using imaging techniques to evaluate the evolution of intracranial hematomas in patients with hemorrhagic stroke is worthy of ongoing research. The difficulty in obtaining ultra-early imaging data and conducting intensive dynamic radiographic imaging in actual clinical settings has led to the application of experimental animal models to assess the evolution of intracranial hematomas. Herein, we review the current knowledge on primary intracerebral hemorrhage mechanisms, focus on the progress of animal studies related to hematoma development and secondary brain injury, introduce preclinical therapies, and summarize related challenges and future directions.

Bautista W, Adelson PD, Bicher N, Themistocleous M, Tsivgoulis G, Chang JJ. Secondary mechanisms of injury and viable pathophysiological targets in intracerebral hemorrhage. Ther Adv Neurol Disord 2021; 14:17562864211049208. [PMID: 34671423 PMCID: PMC8521409 DOI: 10.1177/17562864211049208] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2021] [Accepted: 09/09/2021] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) can be divided into a primary and secondary phase. In the primary phase, hematoma volume is evaluated and therapies are focused on reducing hematoma expansion. In the secondary, neuroprotective phase, complex systemic inflammatory cascades, direct cellular toxicity, and blood-brain barrier disruption can result in worsening perihematomal edema that can adversely affect functional outcome. To date, all major randomized phase 3 trials for ICH have targeted primary phase hematoma volume and incorporated clot evacuation, intensive blood pressure control, and hemostasis. Reasons for this lack of clinical efficacy in the major ICH trials may be due to the lack of therapeutics involving mitigation of secondary injury and inflexible trial design that favors unilateral mechanisms in a complex pathophysiology. Potential pathophysiological targets for attenuating secondary injury are highlighted in this review and include therapies increasing calcium, antagonizing microglial activation, maintaining macrophage M1 versus M2 balance by decreasing M1 signaling, aquaporin inhibition, NKCCl inhibition, endothelin receptor inhibition, Sur1-TRPM4 inhibition, matrix metalloproteinase inhibition, and sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulation. Future clinical trials in ICH focusing on secondary phase injury and, potentially implementing adaptive trial design approaches with multifocal targets, may improve insight into these mechanisms and provide potential therapies that may improve survival and functional outcome.

Central Nervous System Tissue Regeneration after Intracerebral Hemorrhage: The Next Frontier. Cells 2021; 10:cells10102513. [PMID: 34685493 PMCID: PMC8534252 DOI: 10.3390/cells10102513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Revised: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 09/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite marked advances in surgical techniques and understanding of secondary brain injury mechanisms, the prognosis of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains devastating. Harnessing and promoting the regenerative potential of the central nervous system may improve the outcomes of patients with hemorrhagic stroke, but approaches are still in their infancy. In this review, we discuss the regenerative phenomena occurring in animal models and human ICH, provide results related to cellular and molecular mechanisms of the repair process including by microglia, and review potential methods to promote tissue regeneration in ICH. We aim to stimulate research involving tissue restoration after ICH.

Anti-CD47 antibody administration via cisterna magna in proper dosage can reduce perihematomal cell death following intracerebral hemorrhage in rats. Brain Res Bull 2021; 174:359-365. [PMID: 34252444 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2021.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2021] [Revised: 06/28/2021] [Accepted: 07/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The secondary injury caused by RBC autolysis after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) can be reduced by increasing the efficiency of microglia (MG)/macrophages (Mø) phagocytizing red blood cells (RBCs). CD47 is an important regulator of MG/Mø phagocytosis. This study aims to clarify whether anti-CD47 antibody administrated into the cisterna magna after ICH can transfer to the hematoma site, promote MG/Mø gathering to phagocytize RBCs and ultimately reduce cell death. METHODS Forty male Wistar rats were divided into sham, ICH, low-dosage (group A, 0.3 μg), medium-dosage (group B, 0.9 μg) and high-dosage (group C, 1.8 μg) anti-CD47 antibody groups. For the rats in group A, B and C, anti-CD47 antibody solution was administrated into the cisterna magna at 10 min after ICH. Brain tissue was harvested 3 days after the operation. Western blotting was performed to detect the expression of Caspase-3 and Bcl-2. Immunofluorescence was performed to detect the CD68 expression. TUNEL was performed to detect the cell death. RESULTS The hematoma of the ICH rats was located in the basal ganglia, with a good homogeneity of hematoma volume. Low-dosage anti-CD47 antibody in group A had no effects on the perihematomal CD68 (P = 0.338), Caspase-3 (P = 0.769), Bcl-2 (P = 0.176) expression and cell death (P = 0.698), compared with the ICH group. CD68 and Bcl-2 expression increased and Caspase-3 expression decreased significantly in group B (P < 0.001 for all) and group C (P < 0.001 for all). The increase of CD68 expression in group C was greater than that in group B (P < 0.01) by a large margin, while there was no difference for Bcl-2 (P = 0.908) and Caspase-3 (P = 0.913) expression between the 2 groups. Compared with the ICH group, medium-dosage of anti-CD47 antibody in group B significantly reduced the number of TUNEL-positive cells (P < 0.005), but not for group C (P = 0.311). CONCLUSION The results suggested that anti-CD47 antibody administration into the cisterna magna in proper dosage (0.9 μg) can effectively reach the hematoma, induce more MG/Møs to gather around the hematoma, and reduce cell death in perihematomal brain tissue. The results of this study has provided a basic theory for improving the efficiency of MG/Mø phagocytizing RBCs and hematoma clearance after ICH by administrating anti-CD47 antibody via the cisterna magna.

Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26133943. [PMID: 34203368 PMCID: PMC8271744 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26133943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2021] [Revised: 06/16/2021] [Accepted: 06/22/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
CD47 is a receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily and broadly expressed on cell membranes. Through interactions with ligands such as SIRPα, TSP-1, integrins, and SH2-domain bearing protein tyrosine phosphatase substrate-1 (SHPS-1), CD47 regulates numerous functions like cell adhesion, proliferation, apoptosis, migration, homeostasis, and the immune system. In this aspect, previous research has shown that CD47 modulates phagocytosis via macrophages, the transmigration of neutrophils, and the activation of T-cells, dendritic cells, and B-cells. Moreover, several studies have reported the increased expression of the CD47 receptor in a variety of diseases, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), chronic myeloid leukemia, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), multiple myeloma (MM), bladder cancer, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), Gaucher disease, Multiple Sclerosis and stroke among others. The ubiquitous expression of the CD47 cell receptor on most resident cells of the CNS has previously been established through different methodologies. However, there is little information concerning its precise functions in the development of different neurodegenerative pathologies in the CNS. Consequently, further research pertaining to the specific functions and roles of CD47 and SIRP is required prior to its exploitation as a druggable approach for the targeting of various neurodegenerative diseases that affect the human population. The present review attempts to summarize the role of both CD47 and SIRP and their therapeutic potential in neurodegenerative disorders.
