CDDO, an Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Compound, Attenuates Vasospasm and Neuronal Cell Apoptosis in Rats Subjected to Experimental Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:4688-4700. [PMID: 38785551 PMCID: PMC11119475 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46050283] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a type of stroke caused by bleeding into the subarachnoid space. SAH is a medical emergency and requires prompt treatment to prevent complications such as seizures, stroke, or other brain damage. Treatment options may include surgery, medication, or a combination of both. 2-Cyano-3,12-dioxoolean-1,9-dien-28-oic acid (CDDO), a compound with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, is currently being investigated as a potential treatment for various diseases, including chronic kidney disease and pulmonary arterial hypertension. In this study, the effects of CDDO on rats subjected to SAH were evaluated. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups (n = 6/group): (1) control group, (2) SAH group, (3) SAH + low-dose CDDO (10 mg/kg injected into the subarachnoid space at 24 h after SAH) group, and (4) SAH + high-dose CDDO (20 mg/kg) group. CDDO improved SAH-induced poor neurological outcomes and reduced vasospasm in the basal artery following SAH. It also decreased the SAH-induced expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in both the cerebrospinal fluid and serum samples as determined by ELISA. A Western blot analysis confirmed an increase in the p-NF-κB protein level after SAH, but it was significantly decreased with CDDO intervention. Immunofluorescence staining highlighted the proliferation of microglia and astrocytes as well as apoptosis of the neuronal cells after SAH, and treatment with CDDO markedly reduced the proliferation of these glial cells and apoptosis of the neuronal cells. The early administration of CDDO after SAH may effectively mitigate neuronal apoptosis and vasospasm by suppressing inflammation.

Risk factors for poor outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in patients with initial favorable neurological status. Acta Neurochir (Wien) 2024; 166:93. [PMID: 38376665 PMCID: PMC10879324 DOI: 10.1007/s00701-024-05968-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remains a devastating diagnosis. A poor outcome is known to be highly dependent on the initial neurological status. Our goal was to identify other parameters that favor the risk of complications and poor outcome in patients with aSAH and initially favorable neurologic status. METHODS Consecutive aSAH cases treated at our hospital between 01/2003 and 06/2016 with the initial World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies grades I-III were included. Data on demographic characteristics, previous medical history, initial aSAH severity, and functional outcome after aSAH were collected. The study endpoints were the occurrence of cerebral infarcts, in-hospital mortality, and unfavorable outcome at 6 months after aSAH (modified Rankin scale > 3). RESULTS In the final cohort (n= 582), the rate of cerebral infarction, in-hospital mortality, and unfavorable outcome was 35.1%, 8.1%, and 17.6% respectively. The risk of cerebral infarction was independently related to the presence of acute hydrocephalus (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]=2.33, p<0.0001), aneurysm clipping (aOR=1.78, p=0.003), and use of calcium channel blockers concomitant to nimodipine (aOR=2.63, p=0.002). Patients' age (>55 years, aOR=4.24, p<0.0001), acute hydrocephalus (aOR=2.43, p=0.036), and clipping (aOR=2.86, p=0.001) predicted in-hospital mortality. Baseline characteristics associated with unfavorable outcome at 6 months were age (aOR=2.77, p=<0.0001), Fisher grades III-IV (aOR=2.81, p=0.016), acute hydrocephalus (aOR=2.22, p=0.012), clipping (aOR=3.98, p<0.0001), admission C-reactive protein>1mg/dL (aOR=1.76, p=0.035), and treatment intervals (aOR=0.64 per-5-year-intervals, p=0.006). CONCLUSIONS Although cerebral infarction is a common complication in aSAH individuals with favorable initial clinical condition, >80% of these patients show favorable long-term outcome. The knowledge of outcome-relevant baseline characteristics might help to reduce the burden of further complications and poor outcome in aSAH patients who tolerated the initial bleeding event well.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) provokes a cascade reaction that is responsible for early and delayed brain injuries mediated by intracranial hypertension, hydrocephalus, cerebral vasospasm (CV), and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), which result in increased morbidity and mortality. During open microsurgical repair, cisternal access is achieved essentially to gain proximal vascular control and aneurysm exposition. Cisternostomy also allows brain relaxation, removal of cisternal clots, and restoration of the CSF dynamics through the communication between the anterior and posterior circulation cisterns and the ventricular system, with the opening of the Membrane of Liliequist and lamina terminalis, respectively. Continuous postoperative CSF drainage through a cisternal drain (CD) is a valuable option for treating acute hydrocephalus and intracranial hypertension. Moreover, it efficiently removes the blood and toxic degradation products, with a potential benefit on CV, DCI, and shunt-dependent hydrocephalus. Finally, the CD is an effective pathway to administer vasoactive, fibrinolytic, and anti-oxidant agents and shows promising results in decreasing CV and DCI rates while minimizing systemic effects. We performed a comprehensive review to establish the adjuvant role of cisternostomy and CD performed in cases of direct surgical repair for ruptured intracranial aneurysms and their role in the prevention and treatment of aSAH complications.

Abstract
The prognosis for patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is heavily influenced by the development of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), but the adequate and effective therapy of DCI to this day has not been resolved. Multiplex serum biomarker studies may help to understand the pathophysiological processes underlying DCI. Samples were collected from patients with aSAH at two time points: (1) 24 h (Day 1) and (2) 5−7 days after ictus. Serum concentrations of eotaxin, FGF-2, FLT-3L, CX3CL1, Il-1b, IL-4, IP-10, MCP3, and MIP-1b were determined using a customized MILLIPLEX Human Cytokine/Chemokine/Growth Factor Panel A multiplex assay. The functional outcome was defined by the modified Rankin scale (favorable: 0−2, unfavorable: 3−6) measured on the 30th day after aSAH. One-hundred and twelve patients with aSAH were included in this study. The median level of CX3CL1 and MCP-3 measured on Days 5−7 were significantly higher in patients with DCI compared with those without DCI (CX3CL1: with DCI: 110.5 pg/mL, IQR: 82−201 vs. without DCI: 82.6, 58−119, p = 0.036; and MCP-3: with DCI: 22 pg/mL (0−32) vs. without DCI: 0 (0−11), p < 0.001). IP-10, MCP-3, and MIP-1b also showed significant associations with the functional outcome after aSAH. MCP-3 and CX3CL1 may play a role in the pathophysiology of DCI.

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
Background Neuroprotective treatment strategies aiming at interfering with either inflammation or cell death indicate the importance of these mechanisms in the development of brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study was undertaken to evaluate the influence of minocycline on microglia/macrophage cell activity and its neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory impact 14 days after aneurismal SAH in mice. Methods Endovascular filament perforation was used to induce SAH in mice. SAH + vehicle-operated mice were used as controls for SAH vehicle-treated mice and SAH + minocycline-treated mice. The drug administration started 4 h after SAH induction and was daily repeated until day 7 post SAH and continued until day 14 every second day. Brain cryosections were immunolabeled for Iba1 to detect microglia/macrophages and NeuN to visualize neurons. Phagocytosis assay was performed to determine the microglia/macrophage activity status. Apoptotic cells were stained using terminal deoxyuridine triphosphate nick end labeling. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to estimate cytokine gene expression. Results We observed a significantly reduced phagocytic activity of microglia/macrophages accompanied by a lowered spatial interaction with neurons and reduced neuronal apoptosis achieved by minocycline administration after SAH. Moreover, the SAH-induced overexpression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and neuronal cell death was markedly attenuated by the compound. Conclusions Minocycline treatment may be implicated as a therapeutic approach with long-term benefits in the management of secondary brain injury after SAH in a clinically relevant time window.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The complexity of the inflammatory response post subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) may require temporal analysis of multiple protein biomarkers simultaneously to be more accurately described. METHODS Ventricular cerebrospinal fluid was collected at days 1, 4 and 10 after SAH in 29 patients. Levels of 92 inflammation-related proteins were simultaneously measured using Target 96 Inflammation ® assay (Olink Proteomics, Uppsala, Sweden) based on Proximity Extension Assay (PEA) technology. Twenty-eight proteins were excluded from further analysis due to lack of >50% of measurable values. Temporal patterns of the remaining 64 proteins were analyzed. Repeated measures ANOVA and its nonparametric equivalent Friedman's ANOVA were used for comparisons of means between time points. RESULTS Four different patterns (Groups A-D) were visually observed with an early peak and gradually decreasing trend (11 proteins), a middle peak (10 proteins), a late peak after a gradually increasing trend (30 proteins) and no specific pattern (13 proteins). Statistically significant early peaks defined as Day 1 > Day 4 values were noticed in 4 proteins; no significant decreasing trends defined as Day 1 > Day 4 > Day 10 values were observed. Two proteins showed significant middle peaks (i.e. Day 1 < Day 4 > Day 10 values). Statistically significant late peaks (i.e. Day 4 < Day 10 values) and increasing trends (i.e. Day 1 < Day 4 < Day 10 values) were observed in 14 and 10 proteins, respectively. Four of Group D proteins showed biphasic peaks and the rest showed stable levels during the observation period. CONCLUSION The comprehensive data set provided in this explorative study may act as an illustration of an inflammatory profile of the acute phase of SAH showing groups of potential protein biomarkers with similar temporal patterns of activation, thus facilitating further research on their role in the pathophysiology of the disease.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is an important subcategory of stroke due to its unacceptably high mortality rate as well as the severe complications it causes, such as cerebral vasospasm, neurological deficits, and cardiopulmonary abnormality. Hepatoma-derived growth factor (HDGF) is a growth factor related to normal development and is involved in liver development and regeneration. This study explored the relationship between SAH and HDGF. Sixty rats were divided into five groups (n = 12/group): (A) control group; (B) rHDGF ab only group [normal animals treated with 50 µM recombinant HDGF antibodies (rHDGF ab)]; (C) SAH group; (D) SAH + pre-rHDGF ab group (SAH animals pre-treated with 50 µM rHDGF ab into the subarachnoid space within 24 h before SAH); and (E) SAH + post-rHDGF ab group (SAH animals post-treated with 50 µM rHDGF ab into the subarachnoid space within 24 h after SAH). At 48 h after SAH, serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples were collected to measure the levels of pro-inflammatory factors by ELISA, and rat cortex tissues were used to measure protein levels by western blot analysis. Immunofluorescence staining for Iba-1, GFAP, TUNEL, and NeuN was detected proliferation of microglia and astrocyte and apoptosis of neuron cells. Neurological outcome was assessed by ambulation and placing/stepping reflex responses. Morphology assay showed that pre-treatment and post-treatment with rHDGF ab attenuated vasospasm after SAH. SAH up-regulated the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in both the CSF and serum samples, and both pre- and post-treatment with rHDGF ab inhibited the up-regulation of these pro-inflammatory factors, except for the serum IL-6 levels. Western blot analysis demonstrated that SAH up-regulated pro-BDNF and NFκB protein levels, and both pre- and post-treatment with rHDGF ab significantly reduced the up-regulation. The result from immunofluorescence staining showed that SAH induced proliferation of microglia and astrocyte and apoptosis of neuron cells. Both pre- and post-treatment with rHDGF ab significantly attenuated proliferation of microglia and astrocyte and inhibited apoptosis of neuron cells. Furthermore, treatment with rHDGF ab significantly improved neurological outcome. Blocking HDGF attenuates neuron cell apoptosis and vasospasm through inhibiting inflammation in brain tissue at early phase after SAH.

Abstract
Aneurysms and vascular malformations of the brain represent an important source of intracranial hemorrhage and subsequent mortality and morbidity. We are only beginning to discern the involvement of microglia, the resident immune cell of the central nervous system, in these pathologies and their outcomes. Recent evidence suggests that activated proinflammatory microglia are implicated in the expansion of brain injury following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in both the acute and chronic phases, being also a main actor in vasospasm, considerably the most severe complication of SAH. On the other hand, anti-inflammatory microglia may be involved in the resolution of cerebral injury and hemorrhage. These immune cells have also been observed in high numbers in brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVM) and cerebral cavernomas (CCM), although their roles in these lesions are currently incompletely ascertained. The following review aims to shed a light on the most significant findings related to microglia and their roles in intracranial aneurysms and vascular malformations, as well as possibly establish the course for future research.

Abstract
Objectives Microvessel constriction plays an important role in delayed cerebral ischemia after aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This constriction has been demonstrated in both animal model and clinical operation. The present study examined the time-related membrane potential (Em) alteration of arterioles isolated from SAH model rats and the correlation between the potential alteration of arterioles and the diameter of basilar artery. Materials and Methods Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 90), weighing 300 g to 350 g, were divided into t control, sham, and SAH groups. In the SAH group, blood was injected into the prechiasmatic cistern of the rats. The Em of arterioles and basilar artery diameter was measured using whole-cell clamp recordings and pressure myograph, respectively, 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14 days after SAH. The correlation was evaluated using Pearson correlation coefficients. Results The Em of arterioles in the SAH group depolarized on days 3, 5, and 7, and peaked on day 7. The diameters significantly decreased on days 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14, and the smallest diameter was observed on day 7. A significant correlation between potential alteration of arterioles and diameter of basilar artery was found. Conclusions Similar to the artery, arteriole constriction is also involved in the pathophysiological events of delayed cerebral ischemia.

Abstract
Increasing evidence suggests that inflammatory responses are involved in the progression of brain injuries induced by a diverse range of insults, including ischemia, hemorrhage, trauma, epilepsy, and degenerative diseases. During the processes of inflammation, disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) may play a critical role in the enhancement of inflammatory responses and may initiate brain damage because the BBB constitutes an interface between the brain parenchyma and the bloodstream containing blood cells and plasma. The BBB has a distinct structure compared with those in peripheral tissues: it is composed of vascular endothelial cells with tight junctions, numerous pericytes surrounding endothelial cells, astrocytic endfeet, and a basement membrane structure. Under physiological conditions, the BBB should function as an important element in the neurovascular unit (NVU). High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1), a nonhistone nuclear protein, is ubiquitously expressed in almost all kinds of cells. HMGB1 plays important roles in the maintenance of chromatin structure, the regulation of transcription activity, and DNA repair in nuclei. On the other hand, HMGB1 is considered to be a representative damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) because it is translocated and released extracellularly from different types of brain cells, including neurons and glia, contributing to the pathophysiology of many diseases in the central nervous system (CNS). The regulation of HMGB1 release or the neutralization of extracellular HMGB1 produces beneficial effects on brain injuries induced by ischemia, hemorrhage, trauma, epilepsy, and Alzheimer’s amyloidpathy in animal models and is associated with improvement of the neurological symptoms. In the present review, we focus on the dynamics of HMGB1 translocation in different disease conditions in the CNS and discuss the functional roles of extracellular HMGB1 in BBB disruption and brain inflammation. There might be common as well as distinct inflammatory processes for each CNS disease. This review will provide novel insights toward an improved understanding of a common pathophysiological process of CNS diseases, namely, BBB disruption mediated by HMGB1. It is proposed that HMGB1 might be an excellent target for the treatment of CNS diseases with BBB disruption.

Hviid CVB, Lauridsen SV, Gyldenholm T, Sunde N, Parkner T, Hvas AM. Plasma Neurofilament Light Chain Is Associated with Poor Functional Outcome and Mortality Rate After Spontaneous Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. Transl Stroke Res 2019; 11:671-677. [PMID: 31808039 DOI: 10.1007/s12975-019-00761-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2019] [Revised: 11/12/2019] [Accepted: 11/21/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
The initial clinical status after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is an important outcome predictor, but the mechanisms behind the early brain injury (EBI) remains incompletely understood. Elevated neurofilament levels in the cerebrospinal fluid at protracted stages after SAH are associated with poor outcome, but the potential association between plasma neurofilament (pNfL) levels during EBI, disease severity on admission, and poor outcome remains unaddressed. Plasma NfL (pNfL) was measured by single molecule array in 44 SAH patients on admission and 24 h after ictus, as well as in 44 controls. Disease severity on admission was assessed by validated scoring systems, and day 30 modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score was registered. Admission levels of pNfL correlated with clinical disease severity scores (rho = 0.43, p < 0.01 and rho = 0.48, p < 0.001) as well as day 30 mRS score (rho = 0.53, p < 0.001). Each quartile increase in pNfL was independently associated with poor functional status (mRS > 4) [odds ratio = 1.98, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-3.88, p = 0.05]. Non-survivors had higher pNfL than survivors; on admission [17.6 pg/mL (IQR 11.4) vs. 8.4 pg/mL (IQR: 8.9), p < 0.01] and 24 h after ictus [29.9 pg/mL (IQR 90.4) vs 7.8 pg/mL (IQR 26.9), p = 0.01]. Each quartile increase in pNfL was independently associated with reduced survival rate [log-rank = 0.02, hazard ratio = 2.29 (95% CI): 1.15-4.57), p = 0.02]. PNfL levels are associated with disease severity during the EBI phase of SAH. Higher pNfL levels during EBI are associated with poor functional outcome on day 30 after ictus and increased mortality rate.

Abstract
High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1), a representative damage associated-molecular pattern (DAMP), has been reported to be involved in many inflammatory diseases. Several drugs are thought to have potential to control the translocation and secretion of HMGB1, or to neutralize extracellular HMGB1 by binding to it. One of these drugs, anti-HMGB1 monoclonal antibody (mAb), is highly specific for HMGB1 and has been shown to be effective for the treatment of a wide range of CNS diseases when modeled in animals, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy and Alzheimer's disease. Thus, anti-HMGB1 mAb not only is useful for target validation but also has extensive potential for the treatment of the above-mentioned diseases. In this review, we summarize existing knowledge on the effects of anti-HMGB1 mAb on CNS and PNS diseases, the common features of translocation and secretion of HMGB1 and the functional roles of HMGB1 in these diseases. The existing literature suggests that anti-HMGB1 mAb therapy would be effective for a wide range of CNS and PNS diseases.

[PMID: 29614358 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2018.03.165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2018] [Revised: 03/23/2018] [Accepted: 03/23/2018] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE More nonaneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (NaSAH) are found in clinical practice. However, the precise mechanisms in which d-dimer level is associated with clinical condition in patients with NaSAH remain unclear. But even more, the data assessing the risk of clinical course in the patients with NaSAH are scarce. Our objective was to investigate whether d-dimer levels correlated with complication and outcome in patients with NaSAH. METHODS Between February 2013 and May 2017, 92 patients suffering from NaSAH were treated in our hospital. Patient characteristics, radiologic features, laboratory findings, complications, and outcomes were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were stratified into the perimesencephalic (PM) subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) group and the nonperimesencephalic (NPM) SAH group according to the bleeding type, and the NPM-SAH group was further divided into 2 subgroups into the NPM-elevated group and the NPM-normal group based on the value of the d-dimer. After statistical analysis, the NPM-SAH and PM-SAH groups were compared; the same was true for the NPM-elevated group and the NPM-normal group. RESULTS The rate of complications in the NPM-SAH group was higher than in the PM-SAH group, including early hydrocephalus, delayed cerebral ischemia, clinical vasospasm, pneumonia, and hyponatremia. Our results showed that d-dimer levels in patients with NPM-SAH were more elevated than in those with PM-SAH. Further analysis of subgroups demonstrated that patients with elevated d-dimer levels had a higher incidence of complications than those with normal d-dimer levels, especially the risks of shunt-dependent hydrocephalus and pneumonia. In addition, disability, and even death, could be seen in patients with higher levels of d-dimer, but the long-term outcomes were not particularly obvious between these groups. CONCLUSIONS Elevated d-dimer levels on admission were significantly associated with complication in patients with NPM-SAH. In addition to conventional radiologic diagnosis, d-dimer levels can increase the ability of a rapid differential diagnosis between NPM-SAH and PM-SAH.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is common after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and represents a significant cause of poor functional outcome. DCI was mainly thought to be caused by cerebral vasospasm; however, recent clinical trials have been unable to confirm this hypothesis. Studies in humans and animal models have since supported the notion of a multifactorial pathophysiology of DCI. This review summarizes some of the main mechanisms under investigation including cerebral vascular dysregulation, microthrombosis, cortical spreading depolarizations, and neuroinflammation. RECENT FINDINGS Recent guidelines have differentiated between DCI and angiographic vasospasm and have highlighted roles of the microvasculature, coagulation and fibrinolytic systems, cortical spreading depressions, and the contribution of the immune system to DCI. Many therapeutic interventions are underway in both preclinical and clinical studies to target these novel mechanisms as well as studies connecting these mechanisms to one another. Clinical trials to date have been largely unsuccessful at preventing or treating DCI after SAH. The only successful pharmacologic intervention is the calcium channel antagonist, nimodipine. Recent studies have provided evidence that cerebral vasospasm is not the sole contributor to DCI and that additional mechanisms may play equal if not more important roles.

Abstract
Balloon angioplasty is often performed for symptomatic vasospasm following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Angioplasty of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA), however, is perceived to be a challenging endeavor and not routinely performed due to technical and safety concerns. Here, we evaluate the safety and efficacy of balloon angioplasty of the anterior cerebral artery for vasospasm treatment. Patients with vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage who underwent balloon angioplasty at our institution between 2011 and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. All ACA angioplasty segments were analyzed for pre- and post-angioplasty radiographic measurements. The degree of vasospasm was categorized as mild (<25%), moderate (25-50%), or severe (>50%), and relative change in caliber was measured following treatment. Clinical outcomes following treatment were also assessed. Among 17 patients, 82 total vessel segments and 35 ACA segments were treated with balloon angioplasty. Following angioplasty, 94% of segments had increased caliber. Neurological improvement was noted in 75% of awake patients. There were no intra-procedural complications, but two patients developed ACA territory infarction, despite angioplasty treatment. We demonstrate that balloon angioplasty of the ACA for vasospasm treatment is safe and effective. Thus, ACA angioplasty should be considered to treat vasospasm in symptomatic patients recalcitrant to vasodilation infusion therapy.

Abstract
Although delayed cerebral vasospasm (DCV) following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is closely related to the progression of brain damage, little is known about the molecular mechanism underlying its development. High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) plays an important role as an initial inflammatory mediator in SAH. In this study, an SAH rat model was employed to evaluate the effects of anti-HMGB1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) on DCV after SAH. A vasoconstriction of the basilar artery (BA) associated with a reduction of nuclear HMGB1 and its translocation in vascular smooth muscle cells were observed in SAH rats, and anti-HMGB1 mAb administration significantly suppressed these effects. Up-regulations of inflammation-related molecules and vasoconstriction-mediating receptors in the BA of SAH rats were inhibited by anti-HMGB1 mAb treatment. Anti-HMGB1 mAb attenuated the enhanced vasocontractile response to thrombin of the isolated BA from SAH rats and prevented activation of cerebrocortical microglia. Moreover, locomotor activity and weight loss recovery were also enhanced by anti-HMGB1 mAb administration. The vasocontractile response of the BA under SAH may be induced by events that are downstream of responses to HMGB1-induced inflammation and inhibited by anti-HMGB1 mAb. Anti-HMGB1 mAb treatment may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for DCV and early brain injury after SAH.

Abstract
ABSTRACT We retrospectively evaluated the records of 49 grade 4 and 5 patients with 42 intracranial aneurysms treated within 72 h of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In total, 35 patients (71%) were grade 4, and 14 (29%) were grade 5. A total of 42 (85%) patients had one aneurysm, 6 (12%) had two aneurysms, and 1 (3%) had three aneurysms. Out of 49 patients, one technical (2%) and one clinical (2%) complication occurred at surgery. Twenty-one (43%) patients recovered well, including 7 with postoperative hematoma requiring an immediate evacuation of a clot. Fourteen (29%) patients had hydrocephalus and required a ventriculo-peritoneal shunt; 12 patients underwent tracheotomy postoperatively due to coma and pulmonary infection. We found that patients with Hunt and Hess grade 4 and 5 aneurysms can undergo successful neurosurgical clipping of the aneurysms after SAH. However, the morbidity and mortality rates remain high because of their poor clinical condition and a high incidence of vasospasm during treatment.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can lead to delayed cerebral ischemia, which increases the rate of morbidity and mortality. The detection of microglial activation may serve as a biomarker for the identification of patients at risk of this deleterious consequence. We assessed this hypothesis in a rat model of SAH in which the exploration of neuroinflammation related to microglial activation was correlated with the degree of bleeding. We used the rat filament model and evaluated (at 48 hours postsurgery) the intensity of neuroinflammation using positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO) tracer [18F]DPA-714, quantitative autoradiography with [3H]PK-11195, and SAH grade by postmortem brain picture. High SAH grades were strongly and positively correlated with in vivo PET imaging of TSPO in the cortex and striatum. In addition, a positive correlation was found in the cortex in TSPO, with densities determined by imaging and autoradiographic approaches. Qualitative immunofluorescence studies indicated that overexpression of TSPO was linked to astrocytic/microglial activation. In this model, PET imaging of TSPO using [18F]DPA-714 appeared to be a relevant index of the degree of bleeding, indicating that this imaging method could be used in human patients to improve the management of patients with SAH.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating condition with high morbidity and mortality rates due to the lack of effective therapy. Early brain injury (EBI) and cerebral vasospasm (CVS) are the two most important pathophysiological mechanisms for brain injury and poor outcomes for patients with SAH. CVS has traditionally been considered the sole cause of delayed ischemic neurological deficits after SAH. However, the failure of antivasospastic therapy in patients with SAH supported changing the research target from CVS to other mechanisms. Currently, more attention has been focused on global brain injury within 3 days after ictus, designated as EBI. The dysfunction of subcellular organelles, such as endoplasmic reticulum stress, mitochondrial failure, and autophagy-lysosomal system activation, has developed during EBI and delayed brain injury after SAH. To our knowledge, there is a lack of review articles addressing the direction of organelle dysfunction after SAH. In this review, we discuss the roles of organelle dysfunction in the pathogenesis of SAH and present the opportunity to develop novel therapeutic strategies of SAH via modulating the functions of organelles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a leading cause of death and disability and is often complicated by cerebral vasospasm (CV). Conventional management to prevent CV includes bedrest; however, inactivity places the patient at risk for nonneurological complications. We investigated the effect of mild exercise after SAH in clinical and laboratory settings. METHODS Clinical: Data from 80 patients with SAH were analyzed retrospectively. After aneurysms were secured, physical therapy was initiated as tolerated. CV and complications were compared by the timing of active physical therapy. Laboratory: 18 Rodents were divided into three groups: (1) control, (2) SAH without exercise, and (3) SAH plus mild exercise. On day 5, brainstems were removed and analyzed for the injury marker inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). RESULTS Clinical: Mild exercise before day 4 significantly lowered the incidence of symptomatic CV compared with the nonexercised group. There was no difference in the incidence of additional complications based upon exercise. Laboratory: Staining for iNOS was significantly higher in the SAH group than the control group, but there was no difference between exercised and nonexercised SAH groups, confirming that exercise did not promote neuronal injury. CONCLUSION Early mobilization significantly reduced clinical CV. The relationship should be studied further in a prospective trial with defined exercise regimens.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral vasospasm has classically been considered the most important and treatable cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Secondary ischemia (or delayed ischemic neurological deficit, DIND) has been shown to be the leading determinant of poor clinical outcome in patients with aSAH surviving the early phase and cerebral vasospasm has been attributed to being primarily responsible. Recently, various clinical trials aimed at treating vasospasm have produced disappointing results. DIND seems to have a multifactorial etiology and vasospasm may simply represent one contributing factor and not the major determinant. Increasing evidence shows that a series of early secondary cerebral insults may occur following aneurysm rupture (the so-called early brain injury). This further aggravates the initial insult and actually determines the functional outcome. A better understanding of these mechanisms and their prevention in the very early phase is needed to improve the prognosis. The aim of this review is to summarize the existing literature on this topic and so to illustrate how the presence of cerebral vasospasm may not necessarily be a prerequisite for DIND development. The various factors determining DIND that worsen functional outcome and prognosis are then discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vasospasm of both large and small parenchymal arteries may contribute to the occurrence of delayed ischemic neurological deficits, and nitric oxide(NO) is an important mediators in the development of cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We used a rabbit two-hemorrhage model to investigate changes in plasma NO after SAH, and the relationship between NO and brain microcirculation. METHODS SAH was induced in rabbits and a control group was sham operated. There were 32 rabbits in each group that survived the second operation, and they were randomly assigned to four groups of eight rabbits each for follow-up assessments on Days 1, 4, 7, or 14, respectively. Cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV), and mean transit time (MTT) were calculated at six regions of interest (ROIs): symmetrical areas of the frontal, parietal-occipital, and temporal lobes. Before the contrast CT scan, blood was drawn from the central artery of the ear for measurement of plasma NO. RESULTS In the control group, there was no difference in CBV, CBF, and MTT in the six ROIs, and plasma NO was unchanged. Compared to controls, in the SAH group, CBV decreased slightly in the six ROIs (P > 0.05), frontal lobe CBF decreased, MTT increased (P < 0.05, for both), and NO plasma levels were significantly lower (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS There was a significant correlation between the increase in MTT and the decrease in plasma NO (P < 0.05), We hypothesized that normalization of NO might have a positive influence on brain microcirculation following SAH.

A hypothesis: hydrogen sulfide might be neuroprotective against subarachnoid hemorrhage induced brain injury. ScientificWorldJournal 2014; 2014:432318. [PMID: 24707204 PMCID: PMC3953624 DOI: 10.1155/2014/432318] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2013] [Accepted: 01/15/2014] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Gases such as nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) play important roles both in normal physiology and in disease. Recent studies have shown that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) protects neurons against oxidative stress and ischemia-reperfusion injury and attenuates lipopolysaccharides (LPS) induced neuroinflammation in microglia, exhibiting anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic activities. The gas H2S is emerging as a novel regulator of important physiologic functions such as arterial diameter, blood flow, and leukocyte adhesion. It has been known that multiple factors, including oxidative stress, free radicals, and neuronal nitric oxide synthesis as well as abnormal inflammatory responses, are involved in the mechanism underlying the brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Based on the multiple physiologic functions of H2S, we speculate that it might be a promising, effective, and specific therapy for brain injury after SAH.

Abstract
Tea polyphenols are of great benefit to the treatment of several neurodegenerative diseases. In order to explore the neuroprotective effects of tea polyphenols and their potential mechanisms, an established in vivo subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) model was used and alterations of mitochondrial function, ATP content, and cytochrome c (cyt c) in cerebral cortex were detected. This study showed that the alteration of mitochondrial membrane potential was an early event in SAH progression. The trend of ATP production was similar to that of mitochondrial membrane potential, indicating that the lower the mitochondrial membrane potential, lesser the ATP produced. Due to mitochondrial dysfunction, more cyt c was released in the SAH group. Interestingly, the preadministration of tea polyphenols significantly rescued the mitochondrial membrane potential to basal level, as well as the ATP content and the cyt c level in the brain cortex 12 h after SAH. After pretreatment with tea polyphenols, the neurological outcome was also improved. The results provide strong evidence that tea polyphenols enhance neuroprotective effects by inhibiting polarization of mitochondrial membrane potential, increasing ATP content, and blocking cyt c release.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed ischemic events due to vasospasm are a well-known complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Severe vasospasm in other neurosurgical settings is not as well recognized. Delay in diagnosis and treatment of vasospasm in such settings may be associated with significant neurological morbidity. OBJECTIVE To present three cases of symptomatic delayed cerebral vasospasm after transsphenoidal resection of pituitary macroadenomas. METHODS Transsphenoidal resection in all cases was complicated by peritumoral hemorrhage with extension into the subarachnoid space. Two of the 3 patients required re-operation to evacuate the hematoma in the tumor bed because of progressive worsening neurological deficits. RESULTS All 3 patients developed vasospasm of the intracranial vessels, starting as early as postoperative day 5 and appearing as late as postoperative day 10. Comparisons to the non-vascular pre-operative magnetic resonance imaging studies confirmed the "de-novo" nature of the vasospasm based on the caliber of the flow voids. CONCLUSION Transsphenoidal surgery complicated by peritumoral hemorrhage is associated with a significant risk of neurological morbidity because of delayed cerebral vasospasm. Early recognition and management according to guidelines used for postaneurysmal SAH may help to improve outcomes in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To detect symptomatic hemispheres during the postoperative course of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) using arterial spin labelling (ASL). METHODS Eighteen patients with aneurysmal SAH were included; four exhibited symptomatic vasospasm postoperatively. All patients underwent ASL on days 9-10 (single time-point ASL). Nine patients underwent serial measurements of ASL (serial ASL) on days 1-2, 9-10 and 13-21, and seven patients also underwent imaging on days 4-7. CBF in the posterior part of the MCA territory was measured, and the ipsilateral/contralateral ratio of CBF was calculated. Differences between symptomatic hemispheres and others underwent ROC analysis. RESULTS Single time-point ASL revealed that CBF(day9-10) and CBF(i/c_day9-10) were significantly lower in symptomatic hemispheres than in asymptomatic hemispheres (P < 0.001). Serial ASL was significantly decreased on CBF(day4-7) compared with CBF(day1-2) and on CBF(day9-10) compared with CBF(day4-7), and significantly increased on CBF(day13-21) compared with CBF(day9-10). ROC analysis of single time-point ASL revealed that AUC for CBF(day9-10) was 0.95, significantly higher than CBF(i/c_day9-10) (P < 0.001). ROC analysis of serial ASL showed that AUC for CBF(day9-10) was 0.93 and significantly higher than CBF(day9-10/day1-2) and CBF(i/c_day9-10) (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Single time-point ASL revealed significant CBF reduction in symptomatic hemispheres compared with asymptomatic hemispheres. Serial ASL showed time-dependent CBF changes after SAH. KEY POINTS • MR arterial spin labelling (ASL) can non-invasively assess cerebral blood flow (CBF) • ASL revealed significant CBF reduction in symptomatic hemispheres compared with asymptomatic hemispheres • Serial ASL measurements enable observation of time-dependent CBF changes after SAH • ASL is non- invasive and suitable for serial repeated examinations.

Abstract
Rebleeding and symptomatic vasospasm (VS) are the major causes of subsequent morbidity and mortality in patients surviving a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Although most patients present rapidly after the bleed, some may seek medical attention in a delayed fashion due to non-resolving or worsening headaches or new neurological deficits, requiring treatment during the period at risk for VS. Such patients may either present asymptomatic radiological VS on their diagnostic angiogram or present symptomatic VS confirmed on angiogram. A similar situation may occur in patients presenting within the first 48 hours after SAH with very early angiographic VS. Deciding on the optimal timing and modality of treatment in such patients with SAH and symptomatic VS on presentation is controversial. Only six observational studies that specifically assessed aneurysm treatment in the presence of symptomatic VS have been published to date. We reviewed the published literature on the management of ruptured intracranial aneurysms in the presence of symptomatic VS and suggest avenues for future studies.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a medical emergency that accounts for 5% of all stroke cases. Individuals affected are typically in the prime of their lives (mean age 50 years). Approximately 12% of patients die before receiving medical attention, 33% within 48 h and 50% within 30 days of aSAH. Of the survivors 50% suffer from permanent disability with an estimated lifetime cost more than double that of an ischemic stroke. Traditionally, spasm that develops in large cerebral arteries 3-7 days after aneurysm rupture is considered the most important determinant of brain injury and outcome after aSAH. However, recent studies show that prevention of delayed vasospasm does not improve outcome in aSAH patients. This finding has finally brought in focus the influence of early brain injury on outcome of aSAH. A substantial amount of evidence indicates that brain injury begins at the aneurysm rupture, evolves with time and plays an important role in patients' outcome. In this manuscript we review early brain injury after aSAH. Due to the early nature, most of the information on this injury comes from animals and few only from autopsy of patients who died within days after aSAH. Consequently, we began with a review of animal models of early brain injury, next we review the mechanisms of brain injury according to the sequence of their temporal appearance and finally we discuss the failure of clinical translation of therapies successful in animal models of aSAH.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Delayed vasospasm has traditionally been considered the most important determinant of poor outcome after subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). Consequently, most of the research and therapies are directed towards reducing the incidence of vasospasm (VSP). To date, however, clinical trials based on this strategy have not delivered a definitive treatment for preventing or reducing brain injury after SAH. This fact has caused a paradigm shift in research, which now focuses on early brain injury (EBI) occurring in the first 72 hours after SAH. It has also changed the idea of VSP's role in brain damage, and suggests the need for re-evaluating the pathophysiological process of SAH. DEVELOPMENT This review examines the current state of knowledge on the pathophysiological mechanisms associated with EBI and summarises the diagnostic options currently available. CONCLUSION It seems that the research approach needs to be changed so that investigators will focus on prevention of EBI, reduction of secondary brain complications and ultimately, the optimisation neurological outcome.

Abstract
Cerebral vasospasm complicating aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a well-known medical entity. The delayed ischemic neurological deficits (DIND) as a result of vasospasm remain the main cause of morbidity among patients who manage to survive this severe disease pattern. When the traditional treatment options, either medical or interventional, fail to reverse vasospasm, continuous intraarterial infusion of nimodipine through catheters directly into the spastic arteries presents a promising treatment modality. Of 73 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage between 2008 and 2009, a total of 27 had Hunt and Hess grades of 4 and 5. Fifteen percent of them showed refractory vasospasms and were treated with continuous nimodipine infusion via catheters in both internal carotid arteries. We present the method's indications and possible complications.

Abstract
Delayed vasospasm that develops 3–7 days after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has traditionally been considered the most important determinant of delayed ischemic injury and poor outcome. Consequently, most therapies against delayed ischemic injury are directed towards reducing the incidence of vasospasm. The clinical trials based on this strategy, however, have so far claimed limited success; the incidence of vasospasm is reduced without reduction in delayed ischemic injury or improvement in the long-term outcome. This fact has shifted research interest to the early brain injury (first 72 h) evoked by SAH. In recent years, several pathological mechanisms that activate within minutes after the initial bleed and lead to early brain injury are identified. In addition, it is found that many of these mechanisms evolve with time and participate in the pathogenesis of delayed ischemic injury and poor outcome. Therefore, a therapy or therapies focused on these early mechanisms may not only prevent the early brain injury but may also help reduce the intensity of later developing neurological complications. This manuscript reviews the pathological mechanisms of early brain injury after SAH and summarizes the status of current therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medical treatment of arterial vasospasm following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) generally consists of triple H therapy, which frequently relies on inotropic agents in order to increase cardiac output (CO). Patients with concurrent left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction may have paradoxical decreases in CO following administration of inotropic pressors, placing them at significant risk for cerebral ischemia and stroke. METHODS The clinical courses of two patients with SAH-induced arterial vasospasm and underlying left ventricular outflow obstruction are reported. Both patients had hypotension and low cardiac output that were refractory to medical management with triple H therapy. Echocardiography in both patients demonstrated LVOT obstruction secondary to hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). RESULTS Intervention in both patients included discontinuation of inotropic agents and maintenance of hypervolemia to a target pulmonary capillary wedge pressure range, resulting in improved cardiac output and mean arterial pressure. CONCLUSION Medical treatment for cerebral vasospasm with inotropic pressor agents may result in paradoxical decreases in hemodynamic parameters and cerebral perfusion in patients with LVOT obstruction. While HOCM is the most likely structural abnormality to cause this phenomenon, it can be induced by several physiological conditions encountered in the neurocritical care setting. Modifications in triple H therapy regimens may be required in order to optimize cerebral perfusion and prevent cerebral ischemia and stroke in these patients.
