Nanowired dual-electrodes surface to monitor cerebral ischemia by current-volt measurements.

ABSTRACT: The level of clotting protein 'factor IX' (FIX) is highly associated with cerebral ischemia, and this research work has developed a sensitive detection of FIX on dielectrode sensor by current-volt measurement. Sensing area was grown with zinc oxide nanowire to attach more probe for FIX interaction. Aptamer was utilized as the detection probe and attached on the sensing electrode surface through amine-aldehyde chemical linkage. In addition, biotin-streptavidin interaction was utilized to attach the higher number aptamers on the electrode surface connected with dual-probe station. FIX detection limit was found as 10 fM in the phosphate buffer saline spiked samples and 1:320 dilution of human serum. The linear ranges were as 10 fM to 100 pM and 1:320 to 1:80, respectively. With a good determination co-efficient [y = 2.6813x - 3.8467; R ² = 0.9479] this biosensing strategy helps to quantify FIX and monitor the condition of cerebral ischemia.

Project description:Intestinal current measurements (ICM) from rectal biopsies are a sensitive means to detect cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) function, but have not been optimized for multicenter use. We piloted multicenter standard operating procedures (SOPs) to detect CFTR activity by ICM and examined key questions for use in clinical trials. SOPs for ICM using human rectal biopsies were developed across three centers and used to characterize ion transport from non-CF and CF subjects (two severe CFTR mutations). All data were centrally evaluated by a blinded interpreter. SOPs were then used across four centers to examine the effect of cold storage on CFTR currents and compare CFTR currents in biopsies from one subject studied simultaneously either at two sites (24 hours post-biopsy) or when biopsies were obtained by either forceps or suction. Rectal biopsies from 44 non-CF and 17 CF subjects were analyzed. Mean differences (µA/cm(2); 95% confidence intervals) between CF and non-CF were forskolin/IBMX=102.6(128.0 to 81.1), carbachol=96.3(118.7 to 73.9), forskolin/IBMX+carbachol=200.9(243.1 to 158.6), and bumetanide=-44.6 (-33.7 to -55.6) (P<0.005, CF vs non-CF for all parameters). Receiver Operating Characteristic curves indicated that each parameter discriminated CF from non-CF subjects (area under the curve of 0.94-0.98). CFTR dependent currents following 18-24 hours of cold storage for forskolin/IBMX, carbachol, and forskolin/IBMX+carbachol stimulation (n=17 non-CF subjects) were 44%, 47.5%, and 47.3%, respectively of those in fresh biopsies. CFTR-dependent currents from biopsies studied after cold storage at two sites simultaneously demonstrated moderate correlation (n=14 non-CF subjects, Pearson correlation coefficients 0.389, 0.484, and 0.533). Similar CFTR dependent currents were detected from fresh biopsies obtained by either forceps or suction (within-subject comparisons, n=22 biopsies from three non-CF subjects). Multicenter ICM is a feasible CFTR outcome measure that discriminates CF from non-CF ion transport, offers unique advantages over other CFTR bioassays, and warrants further development as a potential CFTR biomarker.

Project description:BackgroundDual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel (ASA + CPG) during the first 21 days has been shown to reduce the risk of major ischemic events in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke. However, the mechanisms underlying combination treatment with ASA + CPG in experimental ischemic stroke has not been fully elucidated.MethodsMinor cerebral ischemia was induced in mice by transient distal middle cerebral artery occlusion (tdMCAO). Two doses of ASA + CPG (12 and 24 mg/kg/day) or vehicle were administered by gavage daily. Neurological behaviors were assessed using the modified Garcia scores, Rotarod test, Y maze, and open field test. Platelet function was assessed in vitro by flow cytometry and in vivo by bleeding and clotting time. The neutrophil ratio and the levels of inflammatory cytokines were measured by flow cytometry and the Meso Scale Discovery (MSD) electrochemilunimescence, respectively.ResultsSensorimotor function was partially recovered with ASA + CPG treatment after ischemia. Anxiety levels and cognitive functions showed improvement in the ASA + CPG group at 12 mg/kg/day after 21 days. Both tail bleeding time and flow cytometry showed significantly decreased platelet function after ASA + CPG treatment. Notably, ASA + CPG at 12 mg/kg/day prolonged clotting time at 28 days after injury. Furthermore, the ratio of neutrophils, an indicator of inflammation, was reduced with 12 mg/kg/day ASA + CPG treatment in the bone marrow (BM) at 21 days and in the peripheral blood (PB) at 21 and 28 days after tdMCAO. Both doses of ASA + CPG decreased pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-6 expression 21 days after stroke. Taken together, these results demonstrated that combination treatment with ASA + CPG improved long-term neurological function after stroke and may inhibit platelet-neutrophil interaction by decreasing the concentration of pro-inflammatory cytokine, IL-6.ConclusionsThese findings indicate a neuroprotective effect of combination treatment with ASA + CPG for a duration of 21 days in an experimental acute minor stroke model. These findings provide further evidence that dual antiplatelet therapy may be a viable neuroprotective treatment to decrease the recurrence of stroke.
