Perihematomal Neurovascular Protection: Blocking HSP90 Reduces Blood Infiltration Associated with Inflammatory Effects Following Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Rates. Transl Stroke Res 2024:10.1007/s12975-024-01289-y. [PMID: 39230786 DOI: 10.1007/s12975-024-01289-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2024] [Revised: 07/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/12/2024] [Indexed: 09/05/2024]
Abstract
The active hemorrhage surrounding the hematoma is caused by the infiltration of blood into the cerebral parenchyma through the ruptured vessel, including the compromised blood-brain barrier (BBB). This process is thought to be mainly driven by inflammation and serves as a significant pathological characteristic that contributes to the neurological deterioration observed in individuals with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) exhibits abnormally high expression levels in various diseases and is closely associated with the onset of inflammation. Here, we found that blocking HSP90 effectively alleviates the inflammatory damage to BBB and subsequent bleeding around the hematoma. We have observed increased HSP90 levels in the serum of patients with ICH and the perihematoma region in ICH rats. Treatment with anti-HSP90 drugs (Geldanamycin and radicicol) effectively reduced HSP90 levels, resulting in enhanced neurological outcomes, decreased hematoma volume, and prevented peripheral immune cells from adhering to the BBB and infiltrating the brain parenchyma surrounding the hematoma in ICH rats. Mechanistically, anti-HSP90 therapy alleviated BBB injury caused by ICH-induced inflammation by suppressing TLR4 signaling. The study highlights the potential of anti-HSP90 therapy in mitigating BBB disruption and hemorrhage surrounding the hematoma, providing new insights into the management of ICH by targeting HSP90.

Abstract
Oxidative stress (OS) develops in critically ill patients as a metabolic consequence of the immunoinflammatory and degenerative processes of the tissues. These induce increased and/or dysregulated fluxes of reactive species enhancing their pro-oxidant activity and toxicity. At the same time, OS sustains its own inflammatory and immunometabolic pathogenesis, leading to a pervasive and vitious cycle of events that contribute to defective immunity, organ dysfunction and poor prognosis. Protein damage is a key player of these OS effects; it generates increased levels of protein oxidation products and misfolded proteins in both the cellular and extracellular environment, and contributes to forms DAMPs and other proteinaceous material to be removed by endocytosis and proteostasis processes of different cell types, as endothelial cells, tissue resident monocytes-macrophages and peripheral immune cells. An excess of OS and protein damage in critical illness can overwhelm such cellular processes ultimately interfering with systemic proteostasis, and consequently with innate immunity and cell death pathways of the tissues thus sustaining organ dysfunction mechanisms. Extracorporeal therapies based on biocompatible/bioactive membranes and new adsorption techniques may hold some potential in reducing the impact of OS on the defective proteostasis of patients with critical illness. These can help neutralizing reactive and toxic species, also removing solutes in a wide spectrum of molecular weights thus improving proteostasis and its immunometabolic corelates. Pharmacological therapy is also moving steps forward which could help to enhance the efficacy of extracorporeal treatments. This narrative review article explores the aspects behind the origin and pathogenic role of OS in intensive care and critically ill patients, with a focus on protein damage as a cause of impaired systemic proteostasis and immune dysfunction in critical illness.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a stroke subtype with high mortality, and its severity is closely related to the short-term prognosis of SAH patients. S100 calcium-binding protein A9 (S100A9) has been shown to be associated with some neurological diseases. In this study, the concentration of S100A9 in clinical cerebrospinal fluid samples was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the relationship between S100A9 and the prognosis of patients was explored. In addition, WT mice and S100A9 knockout mice were used to establish an in vivo SAH model. Neurological scores, brain water content, and histopathological staining were performed after a specified time. A co-culture model of BV2 and HT22 cells was treated with heme chloride to establish an in vitro SAH model. Our study confirmed that the expression of S100A9 protein in the CSF of SAH patients is increased, and it is related to the short-term prognosis of SAH patients. S100A9 protein is highly expressed in microglia in the central nervous system. S100A9 gene knockout significantly improved neurological function scores and reduced neuronal apoptosis. S100A9 protein can activate TLR4 receptor, promote nuclear transcription of NF-κB, increase the activation of inflammatory body, and ultimately aggravate nerve injury.

Abstract
Tenascin-C (TNC) is a multimodular extracellular matrix (ECM) protein hexameric with several molecular forms (180-250 kDa) produced by alternative splicing at the pre-mRNA level and protein modifications. The molecular phylogeny indicates that the amino acid sequence of TNC is a well-conserved protein among vertebrates. TNC has binding partners, including fibronectin, collagen, fibrillin-2, periostin, proteoglycans, and pathogens. Various transcription factors and intracellular regulators tightly regulate TNC expression. TNC plays an essential role in cell proliferation and migration. Unlike embryonic tissues, TNC protein is distributed over a few tissues in adults. However, higher TNC expression is observed in inflammation, wound healing, cancer, and other pathological conditions. It is widely expressed in a variety of human malignancies and is recognized as a pivotal factor in cancer progression and metastasis. Moreover, TNC increases both pro-and anti-inflammatory signaling pathways. It has been identified as an essential factor in tissue injuries such as damaged skeletal muscle, heart disease, and kidney fibrosis. This multimodular hexameric glycoprotein modulates both innate and adaptive immune responses regulating the expression of numerous cytokines. Moreover, TNC is an important regulatory molecule that affects the onset and progression of neuronal disorders through many signaling pathways. We provide a comprehensive overview of the structural and expression properties of TNC and its potential functions in physiological and pathological conditions.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), classified as a medical emergency, is a devastating and severe subtype of stroke. SAH induces an immune response, which further triggers brain injury; however, the underlying mechanisms need to be further elucidated. The current research is predominantly focused on the production of specific subtypes of immune cells, especially innate immune cells, post-SAH onset. Increasing evidence suggests the critical role of immune responses in SAH pathophysiology; however, studies on the role and clinical significance of adaptive immunity post-SAH are limited. In this present study, we briefly review the mechanistic dissection of innate and adaptive immune responses post-SAH. Additionally, we summarized the experimental studies and clinical trials of immunotherapies for SAH treatment, which may form the basis for the development of improved therapeutic approaches for the clinical management of SAH in the future.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) carries high mortality and disability rates, which are substantially driven by complications. Early brain injury and vasospasm can happen after SAH and are crucial events to prevent and treat to improve prognosis. In recent decades, immunological mechanisms have been implicated in SAH complications, with both innate and adaptive immunity involved in mechanisms of damage after SAH. The purpose of this review is to summarize the immunological profile of vasospasm, highlighting the potential implementation of biomarkers for its prediction and management. Overall, the kinetics of central nervous system (CNS) immune invasion and soluble factors' production critically differs between patients developing vasospasm compared to those not experiencing this complication. In particular, in people developing vasospasm, a neutrophil increase develops in the first minutes to days and pairs with a mild depletion of CD45+ lymphocytes. Cytokine production is boosted early on after SAH, and a steep increase in interleukin-6, metalloproteinase-9 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) anticipates the development of vasospasm after SAH. We also highlight the role of microglia and the potential influence of genetic polymorphism in the development of vasospasm and SAH-related complications.

Abstract
Neural stem cells (NSCs) transplantation has been considered as a potential strategy to reconnect the neural circuit after spinal cord injury (SCI) but the therapeutic effect was still unsatisfied because of the poor inflammatory micro-environment of SCI. Previous study reported that neuroprotection and inflammatory immunomodulation were considered to be most important mechanism of NSCs transplantation. In addition, Wnt4 has been considered to be neurogenesis and anti-inflammatory so that it would be an essential assistant agent for NSCs transplantation. Our single cells sequence indicates that macrophages are the most important contributor of inflammatory response after SCI and the interaction between macrophages and astrocytes may be the most crucial to inflammatory microenvironment of SCI. We further report the first piece of evidence to confirm the interaction between Wnt4-modified NSCs and macrophages using NSCs-macrophages co-cultured system. Wnt4-modified NSCs induce M2 polarization and inhibit M1 polarization of macrophages through suppression of TLR4/NF-κB signal pathway; furthermore, M2 cells promote neuronal differentiation of NSCs through MAPK/JNK signal pathway. In vivo, transplantation of Wnt4-modified NSCs improves inflammatory micro-environment through induce M2 polarization and inhibits M1 polarization of macrophages to promote axonal regeneration and tissue repair. The current study indicated that transplantation of Wnt4-modified NSCs mediates M2 polarization of macrophages to promote spinal cord injury repair. Our novel findings would provide more insight of SCI and help with identification of novel treatment strategy.

Abstract
Subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is a cerebrovascular emergency associated with significant morbidity and mortality. SAH is characterized by heterogeneity, interindividual variation and complexity of pathophysiological responses following extravasation of blood from cerebral circulation. The purpose of this review is to integrate previously established pre-existing factors, pathophysiological pathways and to develop a concept map of mechanisms of SAH-induced cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischaemia using a systematic approach. We conducted an extensive mapping of a hypothesized sequence of pathophysiological events. Documentation of supporting evidence was done alongside a concept map building. After finalizing the model, we conducted an analysis of the consequences and connections of pathophysiological events. We included the findings of experimental research, focusing on pathophysiological processes. We focused on SAH-induced cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischaemia as a component of cerebral injury and potential systemic consequences. SAH-induced brain injury occurs within 72 h following haemorrhage. Pathophysiology of cerebral vasospasm may include reduction in NO production, direct activation of calcium channels, upregulating genes involved with inflammation and extracellular matrix remodelling, triggering oxidative stress and free radical damage to smooth muscle and lipid peroxidation of cell membranes, cortical spreading depolarizations, sympathetic activation, finally resulting in the failure of cerebral autoregulation, microthrombosis and cerebral ischaemic injury. This cascade of events might explain why medical therapy often fails to reverse resistant cerebral vasospasm and to prevent cerebral ischaemia.

Abstract
Objective Red blood cell (RBC) parameters are associated with outcomes following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), but their predictive value remains uncertain. This study aimed to detect the association between RBC parameters and functional outcome in aSAH patients undergoing surgical clipping. Methods This retrospective observational study included aSAH patients who underwent surgical clipping at Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College between August 2016 and September 2019. The functional outcome following aSAH was assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS), and mRS 3-6 was defined as poor functional outcome. Results Out of 187 aSAH patients included (62% female, 51-66 years old), 73 patients had poor functional outcome. Multivariate logistic regression of admission parameters showed that World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) grade (odds ratio [95% CI]: 1.322 [1.023-1.707], p = 0.033) and white blood cell (WBC) (odds ratio [95% CI]: 1.136 [1.044-1.236], p = 0.003) were independently associated with poor functional outcome. In postoperative parameters, RBC distribution width (RDW) (odds ratio [95% CI]: 1.411 [1.095-1.818], p = 0.008), mean platelet volume (MPV, odds ratio [95% CI]: 1.253 [1.012-1.552], p = 0.039) and admission WFNS grade (odds ratio [95% CI]: 1.439 [1.119-1.850], p = 0.005) were independently associated with poor functional outcome. The predictive model including WFNS grade, admission WBC, and postoperative RDW and MPV had significantly higher predictive power compared to WFNS grade alone (0.787 [0.722-0.852] vs. 0.707 [0.630-0.784], p = 0.024). The combination of WFNS grade and WBC on admission showed the highest positive predictive value (75.5%) and postoperative RDW and MPV combined with admission WFNS grade and WBC showed the highest negative predictive value (83.7%). Conclusion Postoperative RDW is independently associated with poor functional outcome in aSAH patients undergoing surgical clipping. A combined model containing postoperative RDW may help predict good outcome in patients with aSAH after timely aneurysm clipping.

Abstract
Early brain injury is a series of pathophysiological changes and direct damage of brain tissue within 72 h after subarachnoid hemorrhage before cerebral vasospasm occurs. Early brain injury is a key factor affecting the prognosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage, and its possible pathological mechanisms include oxidative stress, cell apoptosis, autophagy, and immune inflammation. Microglia are important immune cells of the central nervous system. Microglia play a dual role in protection and injury. Microglia are involved in the occurrence of brain edema, the processes of neuronal apoptosis, and the blood-brain barrier disruption after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) through the signaling pathways mediated by receptors such as Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), and triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1), which secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukins and tumor necrosis factor α. Conversely, they exert their anti-inflammatory and protective effects by expressing substances such as neuroglobin and heme oxygenase-1. This article reviews the latest developments in single-cell transcriptomics for microglia in early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage and its inflammatory role.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is one of the common clinical neurological emergencies. Its incidence accounts for about 5-9% of cerebral stroke patients. Even surviving patients often suffer from severe adverse prognoses such as hemiplegia, aphasia, cognitive dysfunction and even death. Inflammatory response plays an important role during early nerve injury in SAH. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), pattern recognition receptors, are important components of the body's innate immune system, and they are usually activated by damage-associated molecular pattern molecules. Studies have shown that with TLR 4 as an essential member of the TLRs family, the inflammatory transduction pathway mediated by it plays a vital role in brain injury after SAH. After SAH occurrence, large amounts of blood enter the subarachnoid space. This can produce massive damage-associated molecular pattern molecules that bind to TLR4, which activates inflammatory response and causes early brain injury, thus resulting in serious adverse prognoses. In this paper, the process in research on TLR4-mediated inflammatory response mechanism in brain injury after SAH was reviewed to provide a new thought for clinical treatment.

Abstract
Intracranial aneurysm subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a cerebrovascular disorder associated with high overall mortality. Currently, the underlying mechanisms of pathological reaction after aneurysm rupture are still unclear, especially in the immune microenvironment, inflammation, and relevant signaling pathways. SAH-induced immune cell population alteration, immune inflammatory signaling pathway activation, and active substance generation are associated with pro-inflammatory cytokines, immunosuppression, and brain injury. Crosstalk between immune disorders and hyperactivation of inflammatory signals aggravated the devastating consequences of brain injury and cerebral vasospasm and increased the risk of infection. In this review, we discussed the role of inflammation and immune cell responses in the occurrence and development of aneurysm SAH, as well as the most relevant immune inflammatory signaling pathways [PI3K/Akt, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), STAT, SIRT, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), NLRP3, TLR4/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), and Keap1/nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2)/ARE cascades] and biomarkers in aneurysm SAH. In addition, we also summarized potential therapeutic drugs targeting the aneurysm SAH immune inflammatory responses, such as nimodipine, dexmedetomidine (DEX), fingolimod, and genomic variation-related aneurysm prophylactic agent sunitinib. The intervention of immune inflammatory responses and immune microenvironment significantly reduces the secondary brain injury, thereby improving the prognosis of patients admitted to SAH. Future studies should focus on exploring potential immune inflammatory mechanisms and developing additional therapeutic strategies for precise aneurysm SAH immune inflammatory regulation and genomic variants associated with aneurysm formation.

Abstract
Cerebrocardiac syndrome (CCS) is one of the secondary myocardial injuries after stroke. Cerebrocardiac syndrome may result in a poor prognosis with high mortality. Understanding the mechanism of the brain-heart interaction may be crucial for clinical treatment of pathological changes in CCS. Accumulating evidence suggests that the inflammatory response is involved in the brain-heart interaction after stroke. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) evoked by stroke may injure myocardial cells directly, in which the interplay between inflammatory response, oxidative stress, cardiac sympathetic/parasympathetic dysfunction, and splenic immunoregulation may be also the key pathophysiology factor. This review article summarizes the current understanding of inflammatory response and immune regulation in brain-heart interaction after stroke.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage is associated with severe neurological deficits for survivors. Among survivors of the initial bleeding, secondary brain injury leads to additional brain damage. Apart from cerebral vasospasm, secondary brain injury mainly results from cerebral inflammation taking place in the brain parenchyma after bleeding. The brain’s innate immune system is activated, which leads to disturbances in brain homeostasis, cleavage of inflammatory cytokines and, subsequently, neuronal cell death. The toll-like receptor (TLR)4 signaling pathway has been found to play an essential role in the pathophysiology of acute brain injuries such as subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). TLR4 is expressed on the cell surface of microglia, which are key players in the cellular immune responses of the brain. The participants in the signaling pathway, such as TLR4-pathway-like ligands, the receptor itself, and inflammatory cytokines, can act as biomarkers, serving as clues regarding the inflammatory status after SAH. Moreover, protein complexes such as the NLRP3 inflammasome or receptors such as TREM1 frame the TLR4 pathway and are indicative of inflammation. In this review, we focus on the activity of the TLR4 pathway and its contributors, which can act as biomarkers of neuroinflammation or even offer potential new treatment targets for secondary neuronal cell death after SAH.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) continues to be a sequela of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) that carries significant morbidity and mortality. Aside from nimodipine, no therapeutic agents are available to reduce the incidence of DCI. Pathophysiologic mechanisms contributing to DCI are poorly understood, but accumulating evidence over the years implicates several factors. Those have included microvessel vasoconstriction, microthrombosis, oxidative tissue damage, and cortical spreading depolarization as well as large vessel vasospasm. Common to these processes is red blood cell leakage into the cerebrospinal fluids (CSF) and subsequent lysis which releases hemoglobin, a central instigator in these events. This has led to the hypothesis that early blood removal may improve clinical outcome and reduce DCI. This paper will provide a narrative review of the evidence of hemoglobin as an instigator of DCI. It will also elaborate on available human data that discuss blood clearance and CSF drainage as a treatment of DCI. Finally, we will address a recent novel device that is currently being tested, the Neurapheresis CSF Management System™. This is an automated dual-lumen lumbar drainage system that has an option to filter CSF and return it to the patient.

Abstract
Vasospasm is a potentially severe complication of subarachnoid hemorrhage. It can be attributed to neuroinflammation and the robust recruitment of microglia. Emerging evidence has linked this sustained inflammation to the development of delayed cerebral ischemia following subarachnoid hemorrhage. In this focused review, we provide an overview of the historical understanding of vasospasm. We then delve into the role of neuroinflammation and the activation of microglia. These activated microglia releases a host of inflammatory cytokines contributing to an influx of peripheral macrophages. This thereby opens a new and innovative treatment strategy to prevent vasospasm. Pre-clinical work has been promising, and the transition to clinical trials is warranted. Finally, some of the key mechanistic targets are outlined with emphasis on translation. This review will serve as a catalyst for researchers and clinicians alike in the quest to improve treatment options for vasospasm.

Abstract
Abstract
This study aimed to determine whether microRNA-322-5p regulates seizure and seizure damage by targeting the TLR4/TRAF6/NF-κB-associated inflammatory signaling pathway. In a pilocarpine-induced epileptic rat model, the expressions of miR-322-5p, TLR4, NF-κB, TRAF6, IRF5, IL-1β, and GABA were assessed by a quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. Tunel detects hippocampal neuron apoptosis. The results showed that the expression of miR-322-5p significantly decreased in status epilepticus (SE) rats. The reduction of miR-322-5p was accompanied by increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, an increased NF-κB expression, and reduced γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels. Exogenous miR-322-5p reduced the expression of inflammatory molecules and increased the GABA levels in SE rats, and also reduced hippocampal neuronal cell apoptosis caused by epilepsy. In conclusion, the miR-322-5p significantly inhibited the TLR4/TRAF6/NF-κB-associated inflammation and reduced neuronal apoptosis, suggesting that its induction may be of potential interest for novel antiseizure medications.

Abstract
M1 microglia induce neuroinflammation-related neuronal death in animal models of spontaneous subarachnoid haemorrhage. Zileuton is a 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor that reduces the levels of downstream pro-inflammatory cytokines. This study aimed to investigate whether zileuton inhibits microglial activation and describe its underlying mechanisms. BV-2 cells were exposed to 1 mg/mL haemolysate for 30 min, followed by treatment with different concentrations (5, 10, 15, or 20 μM) of zileuton for 24 h. The cells were then assessed for viability, polarisation, and protein expression levels. Haemolysate increases the viability of BV-2 cells and induces M1 polarisation. Subsequent exposure to high concentrations of zileuton decreased the viability of BV-2 cells, shifted the polarisation to the M2 phenotype, suppressed the expression of 5-lipoxygenase, decreased tumour necrosis factor α levels, and increased interleukin-10 levels. Furthermore, high concentrations of zileuton suppressed the expression of myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 and reduced the phosphorylated-nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB)/NF-kB ratio. Therefore, phenotype reversal from M1 to M2 is a possible mechanism by which zileuton attenuates haemolysate-induced neuroinflammation after spontaneous subarachnoid haemorrhage.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) remains a challenging but very important condition, because DCI is preventable and treatable for improving functional outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The pathologies underlying DCI are multifactorial. Classical approaches to DCI focus exclusively on preventing and treating the reduction of blood flow supply. However, recently, glutamate-mediated neuroelectric disruptions, such as excitotoxicity, cortical spreading depolarization and seizures, and epileptiform discharges, have been reported to occur in high frequencies in association with DCI development after SAH. Each of the neuroelectric disruptions can trigger the other, which augments metabolic demand. If increased metabolic demand exceeds the impaired blood supply, the mismatch leads to relative ischemia, resulting in DCI. The neuroelectric disruption also induces inverted vasoconstrictive neurovascular coupling in compromised brain tissues after SAH, causing DCI. Although glutamates and the receptors may play central roles in the development of excitotoxicity, cortical spreading ischemia and epileptic activity-related events, more studies are needed to clarify the pathophysiology and to develop novel therapeutic strategies for preventing or treating neuroelectric disruption-related DCI after SAH. This article reviews the recent advancement in research on neuroelectric disruption after SAH.

Abstract
Blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption is a common and critical pathology following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We investigated the BBB disruption property of secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) after SAH. A total of 197 rats underwent endovascular perforation to induce SAH or sham operation. Small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) for SPARC or scrambled siRNA was administered intracerebroventricularly to rats 48 h before SAH. Anti-SPARC monoclonal antibody (mAb) 236 for functional blocking or normal mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG) was administered intracerebroventricularly 1 h after SAH. Selective integrin αVβ3 inhibitor cyclo(-RGDfK) or phosphate-buffered saline was administered intranasally 1 h before SAH, along with recombinant SPARC treatment. Neurobehavior, SAH severity, brain edema, immunohistochemical staining, and Western blot were evaluated. The expression of SPARC and integrin αVβ3 was upregulated after SAH in the endothelial cells. SPARC siRNA and anti-SPARC mAb 236 prevented neuroimpairments and brain edema through protection of BBB as measured by IgG extravasation 24 and 72 h after SAH. Recombinant SPARC aggravated neuroimpairments and cyclo(-RGDfK) suppressed the harmful neurological effects via inhibition of activated c-Jun N-terminal kinase, p38, and matrix metalloproteinase-9 followed by retention of endothelial junction proteins. SPARC may induce post-SAH BBB disruption via integrin αVβ3 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has a high mortality rate and causes long-term disability in many patients, often associated with cognitive impairment. However, the pathogenesis of delayed brain dysfunction after SAH is not fully understood. A growing body of evidence suggests that neuroinflammation and oxidative stress play a negative role in neurofunctional deficits. Red blood cells and hemoglobin, immune cells, proinflammatory cytokines, and peroxidases are directly or indirectly involved in the regulation of neuroinflammation and oxidative stress in the central nervous system after SAH. This review explores the role of various cellular and acellular components in secondary inflammation and oxidative stress after SAH, and aims to provide new ideas for clinical treatment to improve the prognosis of SAH.

Aging (Albany NY) 2021; 13:21345-21363.

Abstract
Inflammation events have been found to aggravate brain injury and blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study probed the role and mechanism of a novel circRNA, circARF3, in regulating the BBB injury in SAH rats and hypoxia-induced vascular endothelial cell (VEC) injury in vitro. Levels of circARF3 and miR-31-5p were monitored by RT-PCR. The expression of inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α was verified by ELISA. In vivo SAH model was constructed in Sprague Dawley (SD) rats. The BBB integrity and cerebral edema, as well as the neurological functions of the rats were evaluated. The apoptotic neurons and microglia in brain lesions were examined by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The MyD88/NF-κB pathway was tested by Western blot. Furthermore, gain-of functional assay were constructed to explore the effects of circARF3 and miR-31-5p in primary cultured brain microvascular endothelial cell (BMEC) injury and microglial inflammation induced by oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD). circARF3 was significantly down-regulated in plasma and CSF in SAH patients with higher Fisher stages. In the SAH rat model, overexpressing circARF3 improved BBB integrity and neurological score, decreased neuronal apoptosis and microglial activation in ipsilateral basal cortex, with declined miR-31-5p expression and MyD88-NF-κB activation. In vitro, overexpressing circARF3 attenuated OGD-mediated integrity destruction of BMECs and microglial induced neuroinflammation, while overexpressing miR-31-5p had opposite effects. Mechanistically, circARF3 sponged miR-31-5p as an endogenous competitive RNA and dampens its expression, thus inactivating MyD88-NF-κB pathway. CircARF3 attenuates BBB destruction in SAH rats by regulating the miR-31-5p-activated MyD88-NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) causes a robust inflammatory response which leads worse brain injury and poor outcomes. We investigated if stimulation of nicotinic acetylcholine α7 receptors (α7-AChR) (receptors shown to have anti-inflammatory effects) would reduce inflammation and improve outcomes. To investigate the level of peripheral inflammation after aSAH, inflammatory markers were measured in plasma samples collected in a cohort of aSAH patients. To study the effect of α7-AChR stimulation, SAH was induced in adult mice which were then treated with a α7-AChR agonist, galantamine, or vehicle. A battery of motor and cognitive tests were performed 24 h after subarachnoid hemorrhage. Mice were euthanized and tissue collected for analysis of markers of inflammation or activation of α7-AChR-mediated transduction cascades. A separate cohort of mice was allowed to survive for 28 days to assess long-term neurological deficits and histological outcome. Microglia cell culture subjected to hemoglobin toxicity was used to assess the effects of α7-AChR agonism. Analysis of eighty-two patient plasma samples confirmed enhanced systemic inflammation after aSAH. α7-AChR agonism reduced neuroinflammation at 24 h after SAH in male and female mice, which was associated with improved outcomes. This coincided with JAK2/STAT3 and IRAK-M activity modulations and a robust improvement in neurological/cognitive status that was effectively reversed by interfering with various components of these signaling pathways. Pharmacologic inhibition partially reversed the α7-AChR agonist's benefits, supporting α7-AChR as a target of the agonist's therapeutic effect. The cell culture experiment showed that α7-AChR agonism is directly beneficial to microglia. Our results demonstrate that activation of α7-AChR represents an attractive target for treatment of SAH. Our findings suggest that α7-AChR agonists, and specifically galantamine, might provide therapeutic benefit to aSAH patients.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) remains a life-threatening disease, and early brain injury (EBI) is an important cause of poor outcomes. The authors have reported that periostin, a matricellular protein, is one of key factors of post-SAH EBI. Clarithromycin (CAM) is a worldwide antibiotic that can inhibit periostin expression. This study aimed to investigate whether CAM suppressed EBI after experimental SAH, focusing on blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, an important pathology of EBI. C57BL/6 male adult mice underwent endovascular perforation SAH modeling (n = 139) or sham operation (n = 30). Different dosages (25, 50, or 100 mg/kg) of CAM or the vehicle (n = 16, 52, 13, and 58, respectively) were randomly administered by an intramuscular injection 5 min after SAH induction. Post-SAH 50 mg/kg CAM treatment most effectively improved neurological scores and brain water content at 24 and 48 h and reduced immunoglobulin G extravasation at 24 h compared with vehicle-treated SAH mice (p < 0.01). Western blotting showed that post-SAH BBB disruption was associated with increased expressions of periostin, phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 and 3, matrix metalloproteinase-9, and the consequent degradation of zonula occludens-1, which were suppressed by 50 mg/kg CAM treatment (p < 0.05, respectively, versus vehicle-treated SAH mice). Periostin and its related molecules were upregulated in capillary endothelial cells and neurons after SAH. An intracerebroventricular injection of recombinant periostin blocked the neuroprotective effects of CAM in SAH mice (n = 6, respectively; p < 0.05). In conclusion, this study first demonstrated that CAM improved post-SAH EBI in terms of BBB disruption at least partly via the suppression of periostin-related pathways.

Abstract
Toll-like receptors (TLRs), a class of pattern recognition proteins, play an integral role in the modulation of systemic inflammatory responses. Cerebrovascular diseases (CVDs) are a group of pathological conditions that temporarily or permanently affect the brain tissue mostly via the decrease of oxygen and glucose supply. TLRs have a critical role in the activation of inflammatory cascades following hypoxic-ischemic events and subsequently contribute to neuroprotective or detrimental effects of CVD-induced neuroinflammation. The TLR signaling pathway and downstream cascades trigger immune responses via the production and release of various inflammatory mediators. The present review describes the modulatory role of the TLR signaling pathway in the inflammatory responses developed following various CVDs and discusses the potential benefits of the modulation of different TLRs in the improvement of functional outcomes after brain ischemia.

Role of Adaptor Protein Myeloid Differentiation 88 (MyD88) in Post-Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Inflammation: A Systematic Review. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22084185.

Abstract
Myeloid differentiation 88 (MyD88) is a well-established inflammatory adaptor protein. It is one of the essential downstream proteins of the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathway. TLRs are pattern recognition receptors that are usually activated by the damage-associated molecular pattern molecules (DAMPs). Sterile inflammation is triggered by the endogenous DAMPs released in response to global cerebral ischemia and from extravasated blood after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In this review, we highlight the importance of the neuroinflammatory role of the MyD88 in the SAH. We also explore a few possible pharmacological agents that can be used to decrease SAH-associated neuroinflammation by modulating the MyD88 dependent functions. Pharmacological agents such as flavonoids, melatonin, fluoxetine, pentoxifylline and progesterone have been investigated experimentally to reduce the SAH-associated inflammation. Inhibition of the MyD88 not only reduces the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, but also potentially inhibits other processes that can augment the SAH associated inflammation. Further investigations are required to translate these findings in the clinical setting.

Abstract
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) was found to be induced in the context of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) before. This study further investigates its role in the development of SAH-induced early brain injury (EBI). Firstly, rats were randomly divided into Sham and SAH groups for analysis of temporal patterns and cellular localization of TREM-1. Secondly, TREM-1 intervention was administrated to produce Sham, vehicle, antagonist and agonist groups, for analyzing TREM-1, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) and NF-κB expressions at 24 h post-modeling, and EBI assessment at 24 h and 72 h. Thirdly, TLR4 inhibitor (TAK-242) was exploited to produce Sham, Sham+TAK-242, SAH, and SAH + TAK-242 groups to analyze the effects of TLR4 inhibition on TREM-1 induction and EBI evaluation at 72 h. Fourthly, the relationship of soluble TREM-1 (sTREM-1) levels in cerebrospinal fluid of SAH patients with Hunt-Hess grades were explored. The results showed that TREM-1 increased in the brain after experimental SAH (eSAH) early at 6 h and peaked at 48 h, which was found to be located in microglia and endothelial cells. TREM-1 inhibition attenuated EBI associated with TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB suppression, while enhancement had the opposite effects. Contrarily, TLR4 inhibition prevented TREM-1 induction and ameliorated EBI. In addition, sTREM-1 levels in SAH patients positively correlated with Hunt-Hess grades. Overall, the present study provides new evidence that TREM-1 increases dynamically in the brain after eSAH and it is located in microglia and endothelial cells, which may aggravate EBI by interacting with TLR4 pathway. And sTREM-1 in patients might act as a monitoring biomarker of EBI, providing new insights for future studies.

Abstract
The microvasculature endothelium accurately regulates the passage of molecules across the gut-vascular barrier (GVB), which plays an essential role in intestinal immunity. Naringenin is reported to have therapeutic potential against several intestinal disorders. However, the effect of naringenin on GVB disruption has been rarely studied. This study aims to investigate the effect of naringenin on GVB function and the potential mechanism. In the present study, the in vitro GVB disruption of rat intestinal microvascular endothelial cells (RIMVEC) was induced by 50 ng mL-1 of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). The integrity of the in vitro GVB was determined by Evans blue (EB)-albumin efflux assay and trans-endothelial electrical resistance (TER). Meanwhile, the expression of tight junction proteins and the related NF-κB, MLCK/p-MLC and NLRP3 pathways were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), western blot analysis and immunofluorescence. The results show that naringenin (100 μM) inhibits TNF-α-induced interleukin (IL)-6 hypersecretion, alleviates GVB disruption and mitigates the change in the tight junction protein expression pattern. Naringenin inhibits the GVB-disruption-associated activation of the MLCK/p-MLC system and TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathways. Furthermore, naringenin shows a similar effect to that of NF-κB inhibitor Bay 11-7082 in reducing the TNF-α-induced activation of NLRP3, p-MLC and secondary GVB disruption. The results suggest that naringenin evidently alleviates TNF-α-induced in vitro GVB disruption via the maintenance of a tight junction protein pattern, partly with the inhibition of the NF-κB-mediated MLCK/p-MLC and NLRP3 pathway activation.

Abstract
Background Microglia-driven cerebral spreading inflammation is a key contributor to secondary brain injury after SAH. Genetic depletion or deactivation of microglia has been shown to ameliorate neuronal cell death. Therefore, clinically feasible anti-inflammatory approaches counteracting microglia accumulation or activation are interesting targets for SAH treatment. Here, we tested two different methods of interference with microglia-driven cerebral inflammation in a murine SAH model: (i) inflammatory preconditioning and (ii) pharmacological deactivation. Methods 7T-MRI-controlled SAH was induced by endovascular perforation in four groups of C57Bl/6 mice: (i) Sham-operation, (ii) SAH naïve, (iii) SAH followed by inflammatory preconditioning (LPS intraperitoneally), and (iv) SAH followed by pharmacological microglia deactivation (colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor-antagonist PLX3397 intraperitoneally). Microglia accumulation and neuronal cell death (immuno-fluorescence), as well as activation status (RT-PCR for inflammation-associated molecules from isolated microglia) were recorded at day 4 and 14. Toll-like receptor4 (TLR4) status was analyzed using FACS. Results Following SAH, significant cerebral spreading inflammation occurred. Microglia accumulation and pro-inflammatory gene expression were accompanied by neuronal cell death with a maximum on day 14 after SAH. Inflammatory preconditioning as well as PLX3397-treatment resulted in significantly reduced microglia accumulation and activation as well as neuronal cell death. TLR4 surface expression in preconditioned animals was diminished as a sign for receptor activation and internalization. Conclusions Microglia-driven cerebral spreading inflammation following SAH contributes to secondary brain injury. Two microglia-focused treatment strategies, (i) inflammatory preconditioning with LPS and (ii) pharmacological deactivation with PLX3397, led to significant reduction of neuronal cell death. Increased internalization of inflammation-driving TLR4 after preconditioning leaves less receptor molecules on the cell surface, providing a probable explanation for significantly reduced microglia activation. Our findings support microglia-focused treatment strategies to overcome secondary brain injury after SAH. Delayed inflammation onset provides a valuable clinical window of opportunity.

Abstract
Stroke is still one of the most common causes for mortality and morbidity worldwide. Following acute stroke onset, biochemical and cellular changes induce further brain injury such as neuroinflammation, cell death, and blood-brain barrier disruption. Matricellular proteins are non-structural proteins induced by many stimuli and tissue damage including stroke induction, while its levels are generally low in a normal physiological condition in adult tissues. Currently, a matricellular protein tenascin-C (TNC) is considered to be an important inducer to promote neuroinflammatory cascades and the resultant pathology in stroke. TNC is upregulated in cerebral arteries and brain tissues including astrocytes, neurons, and brain capillary endothelial cells following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). TNC may be involved in blood-brain barrier disruption, neuronal apoptosis, and cerebral vasospasm via the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases and nuclear factor-kappa B following SAH. In addition, post-SAH TNC levels in cerebrospinal fluid predicted the development of delayed cerebral ischemia and angiographic vasospasm in clinical settings. On the other hand, TNC is reported to promote fibrosis and exert repair effects for an experimental aneurysm via macrophages-induced migration and proliferation of smooth muscle cells. The authors review TNC-induced inflammatory signal cascades and the relationships with other matricellular proteins in stroke-related pathology.

Abstract
The SOCS1/JAK2/STAT3 axis is strongly associated with tumor growth and progression, and participates in cytokine secretion in many diseases. However, the effects of the SOCS1/JAK2/STAT3 axis in experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage remain to be studied. A subarachnoid hemorrhage model was established in rats by infusing autologous blood into the optic chiasm pool. Some rats were first treated with JAK2/STAT3 small interfering RNA (Si-JAK2/Si-STAT3) or overexpression plasmids of JAK2/STAT3. In the brains of subarachnoid hemorrhage model rats, the expression levels of both JAK2 and STAT3 were upregulated and the expression of SOCS1 was downregulated, reaching a peak at 48 hours after injury. Simultaneously, the interactions between JAK2 and SOCS1 were reduced. In contrast, the interactions between JAK2 and STAT3 were markedly enhanced. Si-JAK2 and Si-STAT3 treatment alleviated cortical neuronal cell apoptosis and necrosis, destruction of the blood-brain barrier, brain edema, and cognitive functional impairment after subarachnoid hemorrhage. This was accompanied by decreased phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT3 protein, decreased total levels of JAK2 and STAT3 protein, and increased SOCS1 protein expression. However, overexpression of JAK2 and STAT3 exerted opposite effects, aggravating subarachnoid hemorrhage-induced early brain injury. Si-JAK2 and Si-STAT3 inhibited M1-type microglial conversion and the release of pro-inflammatory factors (inducible nitric oxide synthase, interleukin-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α) and increased the release of anti-inflammatory factors (arginase-1, interleukin-10, and interleukin-4). Furthermore, primary neurons stimulated with oxyhemoglobin were used to simulate subarachnoid hemorrhage in vitro, and the JAK2 inhibitor AG490 was used as an intervention. The in vitro results also suggested that neuronal protection is mediated by the inhibition of JAK2 and STAT3 expression. Together, our findings indicate that the SOCS1/JAK2/STAT3 axis contributes to early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage both in vitro and in vivo by inducing inflammatory responses. This study was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Anhui Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China (approval No. LLSC-20180202) on March 1, 2018.

Abstract
Stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a characteristic structure of microvessel within the brain. Under normal physiological conditions, the BBB plays a role in the prevention of harmful substances entering into the brain parenchyma within the central nervous system. However, stroke stimuli induce the breakdown of BBB leading to the influx of cytotoxic substances, vasogenic brain edema, and hemorrhagic transformation. Therefore, BBB disruption is a major complication, which needs to be addressed in order to improve clinical outcomes in stroke. In this review, we first discuss the structure and function of the BBB. Next, we discuss the progress of the techniques utilized to study BBB breakdown in in-vitro and in-vivo studies, along with biomarkers and imaging techniques in clinical settings. Lastly, we highlight the mechanisms of stroke-induced neuroinflammation and apoptotic process of endothelial cells causing BBB breakdown, and the potential therapeutic targets to protect BBB integrity after stroke. Secondary products arising from stroke-induced tissue damage provide transformation of myeloid cells such as microglia and macrophages to pro-inflammatory phenotype followed by further BBB disruption via neuroinflammation and apoptosis of endothelial cells. In contrast, these myeloid cells are also polarized to anti-inflammatory phenotype, repairing compromised BBB. Therefore, therapeutic strategies to induce anti-inflammatory phenotypes of the myeloid cells may protect BBB in order to improve clinical outcomes of stroke patients.

Abstract
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling is an important therapeutic target to manage lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. The transcription factor signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) has been identified as an important regulator of various immune-related diseases and has generated interest as a therapeutic target. Here, we investigated the time-dependent roles of STAT3 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages. STAT3 inhibition induced expression of the pro-inflammatory genes iNOS and COX-2 at early time points. STAT3 depletion resulted in regulation of nuclear translocation of nuclear factor (NF)-κB subunits p50 and p65 and IκBα/Akt/PI3K signaling. Moreover, we found that one Src family kinase, Lyn kinase, was phosphorylated in STAT3 knockout macrophages. In addition to using pharmacological inhibition of NF-κB, we found out that STAT3KO activation of NF-κB subunit p50 and p65 and expression of iNOS was significantly inhibited; furthermore, Akt tyrosine kinase inhibitors also inhibited iNOS and COX-2 gene expression during early time points of LPS stimulation, demonstrating an NF-κB- Akt-dependent mechanism. On the other hand, iNOS expression was downregulated after prolonged treatment with LPS. Activation of NF-κB signaling was also suppressed, and consequently, nitric oxide (NO) production and cell invasion were repressed. Overall, our data indicate that STAT3 differentially regulates early- and late-phase TLR4-mediated inflammatory responses.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) remains a serious cerebrovascular disease. Even if SAH patients survive the initial insults, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) may occur at 4 days or later post-SAH. DCI is characteristics of SAH, and is considered to develop by blood breakdown products and inflammatory reactions, or secondary to early brain injury, acute pathophysiological events that occur in the brain within the first 72 hours of aneurysmal SAH. The pathology underlying DCI may involve large artery vasospasm and/or microcirculatory disturbances by microvasospasm, microthrombosis, dysfunction of venous outflow and compression of microvasculature by vasogenic or cytotoxic tissue edema. Recent clinical evidence has shown that large artery vasospasm is not the only cause of DCI, and that both large artery vasospasm-dependent and -independent cerebral infarction causes poor outcome. Animal studies suggest that mechanisms of vasospasm may differ between large artery and arterioles or capillaries, and that many kinds of cells in the vascular wall and brain parenchyma may be involved in the pathogenesis of microcirculatory disturbances. The impairment of the paravascular and glymphatic systems also may play important roles in the development of DCI. As pathological mediators for DCI, glutamate and several matricellular proteins have been investigated in addition to inflammatory molecules. Glutamate is involved in excitotoxicity contributing to cortical spreading ischemia and epileptic activity-related events. Microvascular dysfunction is an attractive mechanism to explain the cause of poor outcomes independently of large cerebral artery vasospasm, but needs more studies to clarify the pathophysiologies or mechanisms and to develop a novel therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
The gut microbiota is symbiotic with the human host and has been extensively studied in recent years resulting in increasing awareness of the effects of the gut microbiota on human health. In this review, we summarize the current evidence for the effects of gut microbes on the integrity of the cerebral blood-brain barrier (BBB), focusing on the pathogenic impact of gut microbiota disorders. Based on our description and summarization of the effects of the gut microbiota and its metabolites on the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems and related signaling pathways and the resulting destruction of the BBB, we suggest that regulating and supplementing the intestinal microbiota as well as targeting immune cells and inflammatory mediators are required to protect the BBB.

Abstract
Ruptured intracranial aneurysm (IA)-induced subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) triggers a series of immune responses and inflammation in the brain and body. The present study was conducted to identify additional circulating biomarkers that may serve as potential therapeutic targets for SAH-induced inflammation. Differentially expressed (DE) long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs; DElncRNAs) and genes (DEGs) in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells between patients with IA rupture-induced SAH and healthy controls were identified in the GSE36791 dataset. DEGs were used for weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and SAH-associated WGCNA modules were identified. Subsequently, an lncRNA-mRNA regulatory network was constructed using the DEGs in SAH-associated WGCNA modules. A total of 25 DElncRNAs and 1,979 DEGs were screened from patients with IA-induced SAH in the GSE36791 dataset compared with the controls. A total of 11 WGCNA modules, including four upregulated modules significantly associated with IA rupture-induced SAH were obtained. The DEGs in the SAH-associated modules were associated with Gene Ontology biological processes such as ‘regulation of programmed cell death’, ‘apoptosis’ and ‘immune response’. The subsequent lncRNA-mRNA regulatory network included seven upregulated lncRNAs [HCG27, ZNFX1 antisense RNA 1, long intergenic non-protein coding RNA (LINC)00265, murine retrovirus integration site 1 homolog-antisense RNA 1, cytochrome P450 1B1-AS1, LINC01347 and LINC02193] and 375 DEGs. Functional enrichment analysis and screening in the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database demonstrated that SAH-associated DEGs, including neutrophil cytosolic factor (NCF)2 and NCF4, were enriched in ‘chemokine signaling pathway’ (hsa04062), ‘leukocyte transendothelial migration’ (hsa04670) and ‘Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis’ (hsa04666). The upregulated lncRNAs and genes, including NCF2 and NCF4, in patients with IA rupture-induced SAH indicated their respective potentials as anti-inflammatory therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Molecular hydrogen (H2) protect neurons against reactive oxygen species and ameliorates early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study investigated the effect of H2 on delayed brain injury (DBI) using the rat SAH + unilateral common carotid artery occlusion (UCCAO) model with the endovascular perforation method. 1.3% H2 gas (1.3% hydrogen premixed with 30% oxygen and balanced nitrogen) inhalation was performed on days 0 and 1, starting from anesthesia induction and continuing for 2 h on day 0, and starting from anesthesia induction and continuing for 30 min on day 1. EBI was assessed on the basis of brain edema, expression of S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100B), and phosphorylation of C-Jun N-terminal kinase on day 2, and neurological deficits on day 3. Reactive astrogliosis and severity of cerebral vasospasm (CV) were assessed on days 3 and 7. DBI was assessed on the basis of neurological deficits and neuronal cell death on day 7. EBI, reactive astrogliosis, and DBI were ameliorated in the H2 group compared with the control group. CV showed no significant improvement between the control and H2 groups. This study demonstrated that H2 gas inhalation ameliorated DBI by reducing EBI without improving CV in the rat SAH + UCCAO model.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Cognitive impairment is one of the major complications of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and is closely associated with neuroinflammation. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been shown to have an anti-inflammatory effect and reduce cognitive impairment in neurodegenerative diseases, but its effects in SAH have been little studied. This study aimed to investigate the effects of H2S on cognitive impairment after SAH and the possible underlying mechanisms. Methods: Forty-eight male Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups: a sham group, a SAH group, and a SAH + NaHS (an H2S donor) group. The endovascular perforation technique was used to establish the experimental SAH model. NaHS was administered intraperitoneally. An active avoidance test (AAT) was performed to investigate cognitive function. The expression of TNF-α, toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), and NF-κB p65 in the hippocampus was measured by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. The types of cells expressing TNF-α were detected by double immunofluorescence staining. Results: Compared to that in the sham group, the learning and memory ability of rats in the SAH group was damaged. Furthermore, the expression of TNF-α, TLR4, and NF-κB p65 in the hippocampus was elevated in the SAH group (p < 0.05). TNF-α was mainly expressed in activated microglia, which was consistent with the expression of TLR4. Treatment with NaHS significantly decreased the cognitive impairment of rats after SAH and simultaneously reduced the expression of TNF-α, TLR4, and NF-κB p65 and alleviated the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The neuroinflammation reaction in microglia contributes to cognitive impairment after SAH. H2S reduced the cognitive impairment of rats after SAH by ameliorating neuroinflammation in microglia, potentially via the TLR4/NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive impairment can occur after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) though it commonly tends to be neglected. Red blood cell (RBC) indices are associated with long-term functional outcomes, while it is unclear whether RBC indices could be a potential predictor of cognitive decline after aSAH. We aimed to investigate the association between RBC indices and post-aSAH cognitive impairment at 1 year. METHODS Patients with aSAH received neuropsychological test by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and underwent serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples test. To determine the association between RBC indices and cognitive impairment after acute aSAH, we adjusted for demographic and vascular risk factors using multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Of the 126 patients included in this study, 33% (42/126) of them were diagnosed with cognitive impairment (MoCA<26). After adjustment for potential confounders, increased mean corpuscular volume (MCV) (OR: 1.36, 95%CI: 1.19-1.55) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) (OR: 1.61, 95%CI: 1.25-2.08), reflecting systemic iron status, are more likely to be associated with cognitive impairment after aSAH. CONCLUSION In this aSAH population, our data shows the positive association between MCH and MCV and cognitive impairment at 1 year.

Abstract
To study delayed cerebral vasospasm (DCVS) induced by subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), 60 healthy Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (12 rats in each group), namely sham operation group, blood injection model group, nimodipine group, flunarizine hydrochloride group, and normal group. Then, the physiological parameters were detected, and after the rats were killed under anesthesia, the degree of nerve injury, vasospasm as well as the therapeutic effect of drugs were evaluated by Western Blot (WB). Neurological impairment (NI), endothelial contraction and spasm were obvious in rats following blood injection. The expression of Cav3.1 on T-type calcium channels was significantly higher in the blood injection model group than in the sham operation group along with the normal group. Moreover, Cav3.1 mRNA was expressed in all groups. The Cav3.1 expression in blood injection model group and two drug groups were significantly higher than that in sham operation group and lower than that in blood injection model group. Vasospasm was improved in two drug groups, which indicated that calcium channel antagonists nimodipine and flunarizine hydrochloride had a certain therapeutic effect on DCVS in rats. The decrease in body weight and food intake of the two groups of rats treated with drugs decreased, and the delayed vasospasm was improved, but the expression of Cav3.1 was not changed significantly, indicating nimodipine and flunarizine hydrochloride had a therapeutic effect on delayed vasospasm in rats, but Cav3.1 expression on calcium channels was not affected.

Abstract
The choroid plexus (CP) forming the blood-cerebrospinal fluid (B-CSF) barrier is among the least studied structures of the central nervous system (CNS) despite its clinical importance. The CP is an epithelio-endothelial convolute comprising a highly vascularized stroma with fenestrated capillaries and a continuous lining of epithelial cells joined by apical tight junctions (TJs) that are crucial in forming the B-CSF barrier. Integrity of the CP is critical for maintaining brain homeostasis and B-CSF barrier permeability. Recent experimental and clinical research has uncovered the significance of the CP in the pathophysiology of various diseases affecting the CNS. The CP is involved in penetration of various pathogens into the CNS, as well as the development of neurodegenerative (e.g., Alzheimer´s disease) and autoimmune diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis). Moreover, the CP was shown to be important for restoring brain homeostasis following stroke and trauma. In addition, new diagnostic methods and treatment of CP papilloma and carcinoma have recently been developed. This review describes and summarizes the current state of knowledge with regard to the roles of the CP and B-CSF barrier in the pathophysiology of various types of CNS diseases and sets up the foundation for further avenues of research.

Abstract
Recent data have implicated inflammation of the cerebrospinal fluid spaces after subarachnoid, intraventricular, and intracerebral hemorrhage to be a critical driver of multiple secondary brain injuries such as hydrocephalus, cerebral edema, and vasospasm. While TLR4-dependent reparative inflammation is an important protective response that can eliminate physical irritants and damaged cells, sustained or inappropriately triggered inflammation can initiate or propagate disease.Areas covered: We review recent advances in our understanding of how TLR4, including its upstream damage-associated molecular patterns and its downstream MyD88-dependent and independent signaling pathways, contributes to hemorrhage-induced inflammation in numerous brain diseases. We discuss prospects for the pharmacotherapeutic targeting of TLR4 in these disorders, including the use of repurposed FDA-approved agents.Expert opinion: TLR4 inhibitors with good blood-brain-barrier (BBB) penetration could be useful adjuncts in post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus and multiple other diseases associated with brain hemorrhage and inflammation.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating cerebrovascular disorder. Neuroinflammation is a critical cause of brain injury following SAH in both acute and chronic phases. While accumulating evidence has shown that therapies targeting neuroinflammation exerted beneficial effects in experimental SAH, there is little clinical evidence. One of the factors making neuroinflammation complicated is that inflammatory signaling pathways and mediators act as protective or detrimental responses at different phases. In addition, biomarkers to detect neuroinflammation are little known in clinical settings. In this review, first, we discuss how the inflammatory signaling pathways contribute to brain injury and other secondary pathophysiological changes in SAH. Damage-associated molecular patterns arising from mechanical stress, transient global cerebral ischemia, red blood cell breakdown and delayed cerebral ischemia following SAH trigger to activate pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as Toll-like receptors, nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors, and receptors for advanced glycation end products. Most of PRRs activate common downstream signaling transcriptional factor nuclear factor-κΒ and mitogen-activated protein kinases, releasing pro-inflammatory mediators and cytokines. Next, we focus on how pro-inflammatory substances play a role during the course of SAH. Finally, we highlight an important inducer of neuroinflammation, matricellular protein (MCP). MCPs are a component of extracellular matrix and exert beneficial and harmful effects through binding to receptors, other matrix proteins, growth factors, and cytokines. Treatment targeting MCPs is being proved efficacious in pre-clinical models for preventing brain injury including neuroinflammation in SAH. In addition, MCPs may be a candidate of biomarkers predicting brain injury following SAH in clinical settings.

Abstract
Background: Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating cerebrovascular disease with poor clinical outcome. Nucleotide binding and oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome serves a key role in inflammatory response, which may lead to endothelial cell injury and blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption. Hydrogen (H2) is considered a neuroprotective antioxidant. This study was set out to explore whether hydrogen inhalation protects against SAH induced endothelial cell injury, BBB disruption, microthrombosis and vasospasm in rats. Methods: One hundred eighty-two male SD rats were used for the study. SAH was induced by endovascular perforation. H2 at a concentration of 3.3% was inhaled beginning at 0.5 h after SAH for duration of 30, 60 or 120 min, followed by single administration or once daily administration for 3 days. The temporal expression of NLRP3 and ASC in the brain was determined, with the effect of hydrogen inhalation evaluated. In addition, brain water content, oxidative stress markers, inflammasome, apoptotic markers, microthrombosis, and vasospasm were evaluated at 24 or 72 h after SAH. Results: The expression of NLRP3 and ASC were upregulated after SAH associated with elevated expression of MDA, 8-OHdG, 4-HNE, HO-1, TLR4/NF-κB, inflammatory and apoptotic makers. Hydrogen inhalation reduced the expression of these inflammatory and apoptotic makers in the vessels, brain edema, microthrombi formation, and vasospasm in rats with SAH relative to control. Hydrogen inhalation also improved short-term and long-term neurological recovery after SAH. Conclusion: Hydrogen inhalation can ameliorate oxidative stress related endothelial cells injury in the brain and improve neurobehavioral outcomes in rats following SAH. Mechanistically, the above beneficial effects might be related to, at least in part, the inhibition of activation of ROS/NLRP3 axis.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is known as an acute catastrophic neurological disease that continues to be a serious and significant health problem worldwide. The mechanisms contributing to brain injury after SAH remain unclear despite decades of study focusing on early brain injury (EBI) and delayed brain injury (DBI). Neuroinflammation is a well-recognized consequence of SAH and may be responsible for EBI, cerebral vasospasm, and DBI. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a crucial role in the inflammatory response by recognizing damage-associated molecular patterns derived from the SAH. TLR4 is the most studied Toll-like receptor and is widely expressed in the central nervous system (CNS). It can be activated by the extravasated blood components in myeloid differentiation primary response-88/Toll/interleukin-1 receptor-domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon-β (MyD88/TRIF)-dependent pathway after SAH. Transcription factors, such as nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and interferon regulatory factor (IRF), that regulate the expression of proinflammatory cytokine genes are initiated by the activation of TLR4, which cause the brain damage after SAH. TLR4 may therefore be a useful therapeutic target for overcoming EBI and DBI in post-SAH neuroinflammation, thereby improving SAH outcome. In the present review, we summarized recent findings from basic and clinical studies of SAH, with a primary focus on the biological characteristics and functions of TLR4 and discussed the mechanisms associated with TLR4 signaling pathway in EBI and DBI following SAH.

Abstract
Vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been studied, but the mechanisms remain to be unveiled. Tenascin-C (TNC), which is a matricellular protein and reported to increase in spastic cerebral artery wall after SAH, is a ligand for both Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Our previous studies suggested the involvement of TNC and these receptors in vasoconstriction or vasospasm after SAH. In this study, we investigated whether upregulation of TNC and TLR4 is observed and if an EGFR inhibitor has suppressive effects against them in a mice endovascular perforation SAH model. At 24 h after SAH, TNC and TLR4 expressions were widely observed in spastic cerebral arteries, and these expressions were suppressed by the administration of an EGFR inhibitor. From these results, EGFR inhibitors possibly suppress the expression of not only EGFR but also TLR4 at least partly through regulating TNC upregulation. More studies are needed to clarify the precise mechanisms linking these receptors.

Abstract
Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), combined morbidity and mortality rate in SAH patients accounted for greater than 50%. Many prognostic factors have been reported including delayed cerebral ischemia, cerebral vasospasm-induced infarction, and shunt-dependent hydrocephalus as potentially preventable or treatable causes. Recent experimental studies emphasize that early brain injury, a concept to explain acute pathophysiological events that occur in brain before onset of cerebral vasospasm within the first 72 h of SAH, may be more important than cerebral vasospasm, a classically important determinant of poor outcome, in post-SAH outcome. Galectin-3 is known for one of matricellular proteins and a mediator of inflammation in the central nervous system. Galectin-3 was also reported to contribute to poor outcomes in SAH patients, but the role of galectin-3 after SAH has not been determined. We produced experimental SAH mice, of which the top of the internal carotid artery was perforated by 4-0 monofilament, and evaluated effects of a galectin-3 inhibitor. We assessed neurological scores and brain water content at 24 h. The administration of a galectin-3 inhibitor significantly ameliorated brain edema and neuronal score in experimental SAH mice.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a subtype of hemorrhagic stroke with significant morbidity and mortality. Aneurysmal bleeding causes elevated intracranial pressure, decreased cerebral blood flow, global cerebral ischemia, brain edema, blood component extravasation, and accumulation of breakdown products. These post-SAH injuries can disrupt the integrity and function of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and brain tissues are directly exposed to the neurotoxic blood contents and immune cells, which leads to secondary brain injuries including inflammation and oxidative stress, and other cascades. Though the exact mechanisms are not fully clarified, multiple interconnected and/or independent signaling pathways have been reported to be involved in BBB disruption after SAH. In addition, alleviation of BBB disruption through various pathways or chemicals has a neuroprotective effect on SAH. Hence, BBB permeability plays an important role in the pathological course and outcomes of SAH. This review discusses the recent understandings of the underlying mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets in BBB disruption after SAH, emphasizing the dysfunction of tight junctions and endothelial cells in the development of BBB disruption. The emerging molecular targets, including toll-like receptor 4, netrin-1, lipocalin-2, tropomyosin-related kinase receptor B, and receptor tyrosine kinase ErbB4, are also summarized in detail. Finally, we discussed the emerging treatments for BBB disruption after SAH and put forward our perspectives on future research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Recently, we reported the possibility that computational fluid dynamics (CFD) could predict DCI in terms of the cross-sectional area and flow velocity of the ipsilateral extracranial internal carotid and distal parent arteries in a single-center retrospective study. METHODS This is a multicenter, prospective, cohort study. Patients with aneurysmal SAH will undergo CFD analyses using preoperative three-dimensional computed tomography angiography, and we will investigate hemodynamic features of cerebral arteries in an acute stage of SAH. Primary outcome measures will be CFD features in patients with subsequent occurrence of DCI. Secondary outcome measures will be CFD features in patients with subsequent occurrence of cerebral vasospasm and cerebral infarction and the relationships with eventual modified Rankin scale score at 3 months. CONCLUSIONS The present protocol for a multicenter prospective study is expected to provide a novel diagnostic method to predict DCI before aneurysmal obliteration in an acute stage of SAH.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is an acute cerebrovascular emergency resulting from the rupture of a brain aneurysm. Despite only accounting for 5% of all strokes, SAH imposes a significant health burden on society due to its relatively young age at onset. Those who survive the initial bleed are often afflicted with severe disabilities thought to result from delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Consequently, elucidating the underlying mechanistic pathways implicated in DCI development following SAH remains a priority. Neuroinflammation has recently been implicated as a promising new theory for the development of SAH complications. However, despite this interest, clinical trials have failed to provide consistent evidence for the use of anti-inflammatory agents in SAH patients. This may be explained by the complexity of SAH as a plethora of inflammatory pathways have been shown to be activated in the disease. By determining how these pathways may overlap and interact, we hope to better understand the developmental processes of SAH complications and how to prevent them. The goal of this review is to provide insight into the available evidence regarding the molecular pathways involved in the development of inflammation following SAH and how SAH complications may arise as a result of these inflammatory pathways.
