[PMID: 38325758 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2024.110894] [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: 12/06/2023] [Revised: 01/22/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024]
Abstract
Neutrophil infiltration has been linked to worse clinical outcomes after ischemic stroke. Microglia, a key type of immune-competent cell, engage in cross-talk with the infiltrating immune cells in the inflamed brain area, yet the molecular mechanisms involved remain largely unexplored. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms of how canonical transient receptor potential 1 (TRPC1) modulated neutrophil infiltration in male mouse cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury (CIRI) models. Our findings revealed a notable upregulation of TRPC1 in microglia within both middle cerebral artery occlusion reperfusion (MCAO/R) and in vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation/regeneration (OGD/R) model. Conditional Trpc1 knockdown in microglia markedly reduced infarct volumes and alleviated neurological deficits. Microglia conditional Trpc1 knockdown mice displayed less neutrophil infiltration in peri-infarct area. Trpc1 knockdown microglia exhibited a reduced primed proinflammatory phenotype with less secretion of CC-Chemokines ligand (CCL) 5 and CCL2 after MCAO/R. Blocking CCL5/2 significantly mitigated neutrophil infiltration in microglia/neutrophil transwell co-culture system upon OGD/R condition. Trpc1 knockdown markedly reduced store-operated calcium entry and nuclear factor of activated T-cells c1 (NFATc1) level in OGD/R treated microglia. Overexpression of Nfatc1 reversed the CCL5/2 reducing effect of Trpc1 knockdown, which is mediated by small interfering RNA in BV2 cells upon OGD/R. Our data indicate that upregulation of TRPC1 in microglia stimulates the production of CCL5/2 through the Ca2+/NFATc1 pathway. Upregulated CCL5/2 leads to an increase in neutrophil infiltration into the brain, thereby aggravating reperfusion injury. Our results demonstrate the importance of TRPC1 in microglia-mediated neuroinflammation and suggest a potential means for reducing CIRI induced neurological injury.

Seki E, Komori T, Arai N. Expanded ischemic lesion due to herniation leads to axonal injury in a site remote to the primary lesion on autopsy brain with acute focal cerebral ischemia. Neuropathology 2023; 43:373-384. [PMID: 36855231 DOI: 10.1111/neup.12900] [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: 01/10/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/11/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2023]
Abstract
Cerebral ischemia may lead to axonal injury not only at the site of the primary lesion but also in a region remote to the site of insult. In this study, we investigated the effect of herniation on the development of axonal injury at a site remote to the primary lesion during the acute phase of cerebral ischemia. We obtained postmortem brains of 13 cases with acute phase of unilateral cerebral infarction in the territory of the internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery and seven controls. We classified the brain tissues into herniation and non-herniation groups. Then we examined whether axonal and ischemic changes existed in the corpus callosum contralateral to the ischemic hemisphere and the upper pons. In the herniation group, we detected white-matter lesions by Klüver-Barrera staining, microglial loss by immunohistochemistry for ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1, and axonal injury by immunohistochemistry for amyloid precursor protein. However, none of the aforementioned findings were observed in the non-herniation group. These findings suggest the existence of regional overlap in axonal and ischemic pathologies in remote regions in the presence of herniation. We concluded that herniation may play a significant role in the development of axonal and ischemic changes in the remote region. Our results suggest that axonal injury in a remote region may result from expanded ischemic lesions due to herniation.

Astrocytosis, Inflammation, Axonal Damage and Myelin Impairment in the Internal Capsule following Striatal Ischemic Injury. Cells 2023; 12:cells12030457. [PMID: 36766798 PMCID: PMC9913724 DOI: 10.3390/cells12030457] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Secondary degeneration is defined as a set of destructive events that damage cells and structures that were initially spared or only peripherally affected by the primary insult, constituting a key factor for functional impairment after traumatic brain injury or stroke. In the present study, we evaluated the patterns of astrocytosis, inflammatory response, axonal damage and oligodendrocytes/myelin impairment in the internal capsule following a focal injection of endothelin-1 (ET-1) into the dorsal striatum. Animals were perfused at 1, 3 and 7 post-lesion days (PLD), and tissue was processed to immunohistochemistry for neutrophils (MBS1), macrophages/microglia (ED1), astrocytes (GFAP), axonal lesion (βAPP), oligodendrocytes (Tau) and myelin (MBP). A significant number of neutrophils was observed at 1PLD, followed by intense recruitment/activation of macrophages/microglia at 3PLD and astrocytic reaction with a peak at 7PLD. Oligodendrocyte damage was pronounced at 3PLD, remaining at 7PLD. Progressive myelin impairment was observed, with reduction of immunoreactivity at 7PLD. Axonal lesion was also identified, mainly at 7PLD. Our results indicate that acute inflammatory response elicited by the ischemic insult in the striatum can be associated with the axonal impairment and damage of both oligodendrocytes and myelin sheath identified in the internal capsule, which may be related to loss of tissue functionality observed in secondary degeneration.

Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1238:340163. [PMID: 36464456 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2022.340163] [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: 03/24/2022] [Revised: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Misfolding of superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) has been correlated with many neurodegenerative diseases, such as Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis's and Alzheimer's among others. However, it is unclear whether misfolded SOD1 plays a role in another neurodegenerative disease of white matter lesions (WMLs). In this study, a sensitive and specific method based on SERS technique was proposed for quantitative detection of misfolded SOD1 content in WMLs. To fabricate the double antibodysandwich substrates for SERS detection, gold nanostars modified with capture antibody were immobilized on glass substrates to prepare active SERS substrates, and then SERS probes conjugated with a Raman reporter and a specific target antibody were coupled with active SERS substrates. This SERS substrates had been employed for quantitative detection of misfolded SOD1 levels in WMLs and exhibited excellent stability, reliability, and accuracy. Moreover, experimental results indicated that the level of misfolded SOD1 increased with the increase in age and the degree of WMLs. Hence, misfolded SOD1 may be a potential blood marker for WMLs and aging. Meanwhile, SERS-based gold nanostars have great clinical application potential in the screening, diagnosis and treatment of WMLs.
