Abstract
Ischemic stroke (IS) is the most common type of stroke and is characterized by high rates of mortality and long-term injury. The prediction and early diagnosis of IS are therefore crucial for optimal clinical intervention. Proteomics has provided important techniques for exploring protein markers associated with IS, but there has been no systematic evaluation and review of research that has used these techniques. Here, we review the differential proteins that have been found in cell- and animal- based studies and clinical trials of IS in the past 10 years; determine the key pathological proteins that have been identified in clinical trials; summarize the target proteins affected by interventions aimed at treating IS, with a focus on traditional Chinese medicine treatments. Overall, we clarify findings and problems that have been identified in recent proteomics research on IS and provide suggestions for improvements in this area. We also suggest areas that could be explored for determining the pathogenesis and developing interventions for IS.

Abstract
Stroke remains a leading cause of death and disability, with limited therapeutic options and suboptimal tools for diagnosis and prognosis. High throughput technologies such as proteomics generate large volumes of experimental data at once, thus providing an advanced opportunity to improve the status quo by facilitating identification of novel therapeutic targets and molecular biomarkers. Proteomics studies in animals are largely designed to decipher molecular pathways and targets altered in brain tissue after stroke, whereas studies in human patients primarily focus on biomarker discovery in biofluids and, more recently, in thrombi and extracellular vesicles. Here, we offer a comprehensive review of stroke proteomics studies conducted in both animal and human specimen and present our view on limitations, challenges, and future perspectives in the field. In addition, as a unique resource for the scientific community, we provide extensive lists of all proteins identified in proteomic studies as altered by stroke and perform postanalysis of animal data to reveal stroke-related cellular processes and pathways.

[PMID: 32165865 PMCID: PMC7060589 DOI: 10.1186/s12953-020-00158-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2019] [Accepted: 02/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Traditional studies of the cardiac proteome have mainly investigated in an animal model by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). However, the results have not been of satisfactory quality for an understanding of the underlying mechanism. Recent quantitative proteomic methods have been improved to overcome these limitations. To comprehensively study the cardiac proteome in a rat model of ischemia-reperfusion (IR), we developed a tandem mass tag (TMT)-based quantitative proteomic strategy. Furthermore, using this strategy, we examined the molecular mechanisms underlying the prevention of myocardial infarction by the intake of Triticum aestivum L. extract (TALE), a representative dietary fiber grain. Methods Cardiac proteomes were analyzed by 2-DE as a gel-based approach, and TMT labeling coupled with two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) as a non-gel-based quantitative approach. Additionally, gene ontology annotation was conducted by PANTHER database. Several proteins of interest were verified by a Western blot analysis. Results Total 641 proteins were identified commonly from two independent MS datasets using 2D-LC MS/MS. Among these, we identified 151 IR-related proteins that were differentially expressed between the sham-operation group and IR group, comprising 62 up-regulated proteins and 89 down-regulated proteins. Most of the reduced proteins were involved in metabolic processes. In addition, 57 of the IR-related proteins were affected by TALE intake, representing 25 up-regulated proteins and 32 down-regulated proteins. In particular, TALE intake leads to a switch in metabolism to reduce the loss of high-energy phosphates and the accumulation of harmful catabolites (especially reactive oxygen species (ROS)) and to maintain cytoskeleton balance, leading to a reduction in cardiac IR injury. Conclusions Our study provides a comprehensive proteome map of IR-related proteins and potential target proteins and identifies mechanisms implicated in the prevention of myocardial infarction by TALE intake in a rat IR model.

Proteomic Assessment of iTRAQ-Based NaoMaiTong in the Treatment of Ischemic Stroke in Rats. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2019; 2019:5107198.

Abstract
Background NaoMaiTong (NMT) is widely used in the treatment of cerebral ischemia but the molecular details of its beneficial effects remain poorly characterized. Materials and Methods In this study, we used iTRAQ using 2D LC-MS/MS technology to investigate the cellular mechanisms governing the protective effects of NMT. The transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model was established and evaluated. The degree of cerebral ischemia was assessed through scoring for nerve injury symptoms and through the assessment of the areas of cerebral infarction. Brain tissues were subjected to analysis by iTRAQ. High-pH HPLC and RSLC-MS/MS analysis were performed to detect differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) between the treatment groups (Sham, MCAO, and NMT). Bioinformatics were employed for data analysis and DEPs were validated by western blot. Results The results showed that NMT offers protection to the neurological damage caused by MCAO and was found to reduce the areas of cerebral infarction. We detected 3216 DEPs via mass spectrometry. Of these proteins, 21 displayed altered expression following NMT intervention. These included DEPs involved in translation, cell cycle regulation, cellular nitrogen metabolism, and stress responses. Pathway analysis revealed seven key DEPs that were enriched in ribosomal synthesis pathways, tight junction formation, and regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. According to protein-protein interaction analysis, RPL17, Tuba, and Rac1 were affected by NMT treatment, which was validated by western blot analysis. Discussion We therefore identify new pharmacodynamic mechanisms of NMT for the prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke. These DEPs reveal new targets to prevent ischemic stroke induced neuronal damage.

Abstract
Ischemic perinatal stroke (IPS) affects 1 in 2,300-5,000 live births. Despite a survival rate >95%, approximately 60% of IPS infants develop motor and cognitive impairments. Given the importance of axonal growth and synaptic plasticity in neurocognitive development, our objective was to identify the molecular pathways underlying IPS-associated synaptic dysfunction using a mouse model. IPS was induced by unilateral ligation of the common carotid artery of postnatal day 10 (P10) mice. Five days after ischemia, sensorimotor and motor functions were assessed by vibrissae-evoked forepaw placement and the tail suspension test respectively, showing evidence of greater impairments in male pups than in female pups. Twenty-four hours after ischemia, both hemispheres were collected and synaptosomal proteins then prepared for quantification, using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation. Seventy-two of 1,498 qualified proteins were altered in the ischemic hemisphere. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis was used to map these proteins onto molecular networks indicative of reduced neuronal proliferation, survival, and synaptic plasticity, accompanied by reduced PKCα signaling in male, but not female, pups. These effects also occurred in the non-ischemic hemisphere when compared with sham controls. The altered signaling effects may contribute to the sex-specific neurodevelopmental dysfunction following IPS, highlighting potential pathways for targeting during treatment.

Abstract
Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) has long been implicated in neuronal injury caused by acute ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). However, its precise role and regulatory mechanisms remain obscure. Here, we investigated the role of the CaMKII family in neuronal survival during I/R. Our data indicated that CAMK2D/CaMKIIδ and CAMK2G/CaMKIIγ were selectively upregulated in a time-dependent manner at both transcriptional and protein levels after acute ischemia. Overexpression of CaMKIIδ promoted neuronal survival, while their depletion exacerbated ischemic neuronal death. Similar to CaMKIIδ, knockdown of CAMKIIγ resulted in significant neuronal death after I/R. We further identified CaMKIIδ2 as the subtype that is selectively induced by I/R in primary neurons. The induction of CaMKIIδ was controlled in part by a pair of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), C2dat1 and C2dat2. C2dat2, similar to C2dat1, was upregulated by I/R and cooperated with C2dat1 to modulate CaMKIIδ expression. Knockdown of C2dat1/2 blocked OGD/R-induced CaMKIIδ expression and decreased neuronal survival but did not affect the levels of CaMKIIγ, indicating specific targeting of CAMK2D by C2dat1/2. Mechanistically, I/R-induced CaMKIIδ and CaMKIIγ caused the upregulation of IKKα/β and further activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway to protect neurons from ischemic damage. Genetically, downregulating p65 subunit of NF-κB in mice increased I/R-induced neuronal death by blocking the activity of CaMKII/IKK/IκBα/NF-κB signaling axis. In summary, CaMKIIδ and CaMKIIγ are novel I/R-induced genes that promote neuronal survival during ischemic injury. The upregulation of these CaMKII kinases led to activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, which protects neurons from ischemic damage.

Abstract
Thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is the only pharmacological approved treatment for ischemic stroke, despite its associated increasing risk of hemorrhagic transformation. Since many of rt-PA effects in blood-brain barrier (BBB) are not well characterized, the study of protein changes in BBB cells after rt-PA administration may help to understand its adverse effects. Our aim was to analyze protein levels of four commonly used housekeeping proteins: β-Actin, α-Tubulin, GAPDH and HPRT in bEnd.3 endothelial cell line subjected to oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) conditions and rt-PA treatment to determine their reliability as Western blot loading controls. bEnd.3 monolayers were subjected to 2.5 h of OGD and reperfusion with/without 20 μg/ml of rt-PA. At 3, 6, 24 and 72 h post-OGD, protein levels were analyzed by Western blot using Stain-Free technology. OGD significantly decreased β-Actin, α-Tubulin, GAPDH and HPRT protein levels at 3, 6, 24 and 72 h post-OGD without significant rt-PA treatment effects except for the GAPDH levels increase in control condition at 3 h post-OGD. The present study clearly demonstrated that β-Actin, α-Tubulin, GAPDH and HPRT proteins are not suitable as loading controls for Western Blot analysis in bEnd.3 cells after OGD. SIGNIFICANCE We reported altered levels of β-Actin, α-Tubulin, GAPDH and HPRT housekeeping proteins in bEnd.3 endothelial cell line after an ischemic insult. Therefore, we demonstrated that these proteins are not suitable as loading controls for Western Blot analysis in our experimental conditions and we recommended the use of Stain-Free gels as an alternative to traditional housekeeping proteins normalization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Preventive Antibiotics in Stroke Study (PASS), a randomized open-label masked endpoint trial, showed that preventive ceftriaxone did not improve functional outcome at 3 months in patients with acute stroke (adjusted common OR 0.95; 95% CI 0.82-1.09). Post-hoc analyses showed that among patients who received intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), patients who received ceftriaxone had a significantly better outcome as compared with the control group. This study aimed to gain more insight into the characteristics of these patients. METHODS In PASS, 2,550 patients were randomly assigned to preventive antibiotic treatment with ceftriaxone or standard care. In current post-hoc analysis, 836 patients who received IVT were included. Primary outcome included functional status on the modified Rankin Scale, analyzed with adjusted ordinal regression. Secondary outcomes included infection rate and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) rate. RESULTS For all patients in PASS, the p value for the interaction between IVT and preventive ceftriaxone regarding functional outcome was 0.03. Of the 836 IVT-treated patients, 437 were administered ceftriaxone and 399 were allocated to the control group. Baseline characteristics were similar. In the IVT subgroup, preventive ceftriaxone was associated with a significant reduction in unfavorable outcome (adjusted common OR 0.77; 95% CI 0.61-0.99; p = 0.04). Mortality at 3 months was similar (OR 0.75; 95% CI 0.48-1.18). Preventive ceftriaxone was associated with a reduction in infections (OR 0.43; 95% CI 0.28-0.66), and a trend towards an increased risk for sICH (OR 3.09; 95% CI 0.85-11.31). Timing of ceftriaxone administration did not influence the outcome (aOR 1.00; 95% CI 0.98-1.03; p = 0.85). CONCLUSIONS According to the post-hoc analysis of PASS, preventive ceftriaxone may improve the functional outcome in IVT-treated patients with acute stroke, despite a trend towards an increased rate of post-IVT-sICH.

Abstract
Protein identification and quantification in individual cells is essential to understand biological processes such as those involved in cell apoptosis, cancer, biomarker discovery, disease diagnostics, pathology, or therapy. Compared with present single cell genome analysis, probing the protein content of single cells has been hampered by the lack of a protein amplification technique. Here, we report the development of a quantitative mass spectrometric approach combined with microfluidic technology reaching the detection sensitivity of high abundant proteins in single cells. A microfluidic platform with a series of chambers and valves, ensuring a set of defined wells for absolute quantification of targeted proteins, was developed and combined with isotopic labeling strategies employing isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ)-labels. To this aim, we adapted iTRAQ labeling to an on-chip protocol. Simultaneous protein digestion and labeling performed on the microfluidic platform rendered the labeling strategy compatible with all necessary manipulation steps on-chip, including the matrix delivery for MALDI-TOF analysis. We demonstrate this approach with the apoptosis related protein Bcl-2 and quantitatively assess the number of Bcl-2 molecules detected. We anticipate that this approach will eventually allow quantification of protein expression on the single cell level.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemic-reperfusion injury as an inflammatory and microcirculation dysfunction pathological condition negatively affects the clinical outcome of stroke patients. The novel inflammatory procoagulant protein fgl2 has been reported to play a role in some inflammatory and coagulation dysregulation diseases. This study aimed to examine the relationship between fgl2 expression and infarct size in an acute cerebral ischemic-reperfusion rat model. We studied fgl2 mRNA and protein expressions in cerebral tissue and peripheral macrophages, and the expressions of several inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-1β, MCP-1, and IL-8) in serum samples from rats with acute cerebral ischemic-reperfusion injury. Fiber microthrombosis in situ contributed to the microvascular thrombosis in acute cerebral ischemic-reperfusion injury, and fgl2 expression tended to strongly correlate with cerebral infarct size. The expression levels of the other inflammatory factors significantly increased but weakly correlated with cerebral infarct size. These findings support the potential of fgl2 level as a novel biomarker of acute cerebral ischemic-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Ethanol (EtOH) exposure during embryonic development causes dysfunction of the central nervous system (CNS). Here, we examined the effects of chronic EtOH on gene expression during early stages of neuronal differentiation. Human embryonic carcinoma (NCCIT) cells were differentiated into neuronal precursors/lineages in the presence or absence of EtOH and folic acid. Gene expression profiling and pathway analysis demonstrated that EtOH deregulates many genes and pathways that are involved in early brain development. EtOH exposure downregulated several important genes, such as PCDHB14, GABRB1, CTNND2, NAV3, RALDH1, and OPN5, which are involved in CNS development, synapse assembly, synaptic transmission, and neurotransmitter receptor activity. GeneGo pathway analysis revealed that the deregulated genes mapped to disease pathways that were relevant to fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD, such as neurotic disorders, epilepsy, and alcohol-related disorders). In conclusion, these findings suggest that the impairment of the neurological system or suboptimal synapse formation resulting from EtOH exposure could underlie the neurodevelopmental disorders in individuals with FASD.
