Relationship Between Hematoma Expansion Induced by Hypertension and Hyperglycemia and Blood-brain Barrier Disruption in Mice and Its Possible Mechanism: Role of Aquaporin-4 and Connexin43.

ABSTRACT: We aimed to select an optimized hematoma expansion (HE) model and investigate the possible mechanism of blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage in mice. The results showed that HE occurred in the group with hypertension combined with hyperglycemia (HH-HE) from 3 to 72 h after intracerebral hemorrhage; this was accompanied by neurological deficits and hardly influenced the survival rate. The receiver operating characteristic curve suggested the criterion for this model was hematoma volume expansion ≥ 45.0%. Meanwhile, HH-HE aggravated BBB disruption. A protector of the BBB reduced HH-HE, while a BBB disruptor induced a further HH-HE. Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) knock-out led to larger hematoma volume and more severe BBB disruption. Furthermore, hematoma volume and BBB disruption were reduced by multiple connexin43 (Cx43) inhibitors in the wild-type group but not in the AQP4 knock-out group. In conclusion, the optimized HE model is induced by hypertension and hyperglycemia with the criterion of hematoma volume expanding ≥ 45.0%. HH-HE leads to BBB disruption, which is dependent on AQP4 and Cx43.

Project description:ImportanceMany clinical trials focus on restricting hematoma expansion following acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), but selecting those patients at highest risk of hematoma expansion is challenging.ObjectiveTo develop a prediction score for hematoma expansion in patients with primary ICH.Design, setting, and participantsProspective cohort study at 2 urban academic medical centers among patients having primary ICH with available baseline and follow-up computed tomography for volumetric analysis (817 patients in the development cohort and 195 patients in the independent validation cohort).Main outcomes and measuresHematoma expansion was assessed using semiautomated software and was defined as more than 6 mL or 33% growth. Covariates were tested for association with hematoma expansion using univariate and multivariable logistic regression. A 9-point prediction score was derived based on the regression estimates and was subsequently tested in the independent validation cohort.ResultsHematoma expansion occurred in 156 patients (19.1%). In multivariable analysis, predictors of expansion were as follows: warfarin sodium use, the computed tomography angiography spot sign, and shorter time to computed tomography (≤ 6 vs >6 hours) (P < .001 for all), as well as baseline ICH volume (<30 [reference], 30-60 [P = .03], and >60 [P = .005] mL). The incidence of hematoma expansion steadily increased with higher scores. In the independent validation cohort (n = 195), our prediction score performed well and showed strong association with hematoma expansion (odds ratio, 4.59; P < .001 for a high vs low score). The C statistics for the score were 0.72 for the development cohort and 0.77 for the independent validation cohort.Conclusions and relevanceA 9-point prediction score for hematoma expansion was developed and independently validated. The results open a path for individualized treatment and trial design in ICH aimed at patients at highest risk of hematoma expansion with maximum potential for therapeutic benefit.
