Project description:Warfare has long been associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in militarized zones. Common forms of TBI can be caused by a physical insult to the head-brain or by the effects of a high velocity blast shock wave generated by the detonation of an explosive device. While both forms of trauma are distinctly different regarding the mechanism of trauma induction, there are striking similarities in the cognitive and emotional status of survivors. Presently, proven effective therapeutics for the treatment of either form of TBI are unavailable. To be able to develop efficacious therapies, studies involving animal models of physical- and blast-TBI are required to identify possible novel or existing medicines that may be of value in the management of clinical events. We examined indices of cognition and anxiety-like behavior and the hippocampal gene transcriptome of mice subjected to both forms of TBI. We identified common behavioral deficits and gene expression regulations, in addition to unique injury-specific forms of gene regulation. Molecular pathways presented a pattern similar to that seen in gene expression. Interestingly, pathways connected to AlzheimerM-bM-^@M-^Ys disease displayed a markedly different form of regulation depending on the type of TBI. While these data highlight similarities in behavioral outcomes after trauma, the divergence in hippocampal transcriptome observed between models suggests that, at the molecular level, the TBIs are quite different. These models may provide tools to help define therapeutic approaches for the treatment of physical- and blast-TBIs. Based upon observations of increasing numbers of personnel displaying TBI related emotional and behavioral changes in militarized zones, the development of efficacious therapies will become a national if not a global priority. Keywords: Physical-traumatic brain injury; Blast-traumatic brain injury; Cognitive dysfunction; Gene expression; Molecular pathway(s); Neurodegeneration; Stem cells; AlzheimerM-bM-^@M-^Ys disease A mild physical-TBI was induced using a concussive head trauma device described previously (Milman et al., 2005; Zohar et al., 2003). Briefly, mice were lightly anesthetized (Isoflurane) and placed under the weight-drop concussive head trauma instrument. The device consisted of a metal tube (inner diameter 13 mm), placed vertically over the mouse head. A metal weight (30 g) was dropped from the top of the tube (80 cm) and struck the skull at the right side temporal area between the corner of the eye and the ear. A sponge supported the head, allowing some antero-posterior motion without any rotational head movement at the moment of the impact. Experimental conditions used to create a mild low-level blast-TBI and the subsequent model characterization, have been described in detail elsewhere (Rubovitch et al., 2011). In brief, mice were anaesthetized with a combination of ketamine (100 mg/kg) and xylazine (10 mg/kg). Once the animals were fully anaesthetized they were placed at a defined distance from a detonation source, in this case 7 meters. Pressure sensors were used to measure the explosion shock wave pressure (PSI) generated by the detonation (Free-Field ICPM-BM-. Blast Pressure Sensor; PCB Piezoelectronics, Depew, NY, USA, Model 137). At 7 meters from the source of the detonation, the animals were exposed to a maximum of a 2.5 PSI (17.2 kPa) pressure shock wave. Immediately after the induction of the injury, mice were placed back in their cages. Once the animals had recovered from the anesthesia, basic neurological assessments were undertaken to identify any acute neurological dysfunction. Only animals exhibiting no evidence of acute neurological damage post injury were subsequently used in further experiments. Sham treated mouse groups were treated identically; however, they were not exposed to physical- or blast-TBI. Mouse hippocampus tissues were randomly selected from the larger library of samples generated from the behavioral experiments and the numbers utilized in the gene expression study were as follows: sham, n = 5: physical-TBI, n = 4; blast-TBI, n = 7.

Project description:Time dependent-profiles in the gene expression level following lateral moderate fluid percussion injury in the rat brain We used microarray to elucidate relationship between the alteration of gene expression levels and the progression of brain damages following traumatic brain injury. To examine the levels of gene expression in the early phase of traumatic brain injury, we analyzed the gene expression at 3, 6, 12, and 48 h after trauma using the lateral moderate fluid percussion TBI model. The ratios of the gene expression level were compared between chips corresponding to the 3, 6 and 12 h fluid percussion groups and the sham group chips. On the other hand, the rations of gene expression level after 48 h FPI were compared with 48 h sham chip, because the gene expression levels of 48 h sham chip were distinct from sham group chips (3, 6 and 12 h) in the cluster and principal components analyses.

Project description:Genetic factors are believed to be of importance for outcome of traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, so far mainly allelic variation in apolipoprotein E4 has been studied in human TBI. In order to study the role of genetic factors in experimental TBI, we examined parental DA and PVG strains before and after TBI. A standardized weight drop injury was used and the pericontusional area was dissected 1 day after TBI and transcriptional profiling was performed.

Project description:The subventricular zone (SVZ) is a neurogenetic niche that contributes to homeostasis and repair after brain injury. However, effects of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) on genomewide gene expression in the SVZ remain largely unexplored. To address this issue, we investigated the single-nucleus transcriptomic profiles of the SVZ after mTBI. 18 distinct clusters were yielded via unsupervised clustering of the transcriptomic profiles. Cell type specific gene expression responding to mTBI were revealed, some of which were closely associated with pathogenesis post-injury. Furthermore, the diverse cell to cell interaction networks uncovered an array of cellular processes under mTBI. Also, we reported novel lineage trajectories and molecular hallmarks that govern the neurogenesis. Our gene expression atlas provides extensive resources for future researches regarding mTBI induced pathogenesis, its therapeutic interventions or diagnostic tests.

Project description:Post-traumatic neuroinflammation is a key driver of secondary injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Pyroptosis, a proinflammatory form of programmed cell death, considerably activates strong neuroinflammation and amplifies the inflammatory response by releasing inflammatory contents. Therefore, treatments targeting pyroptosis may beneficially effects for the treatment of secondary brain damage after TBI. Herein, a cysteine-alanine-glutamine-lysine (CAQK) peptide-modified β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) nanoparticle was constructed to deliver disulfiram (DSF), C-β-LG/DSF, to inhibit pyroptosis and decrease neuroinflammation, thereby preventing TBI-induced secondary injury. In the post-TBI mice model, C-β-LG/DSF selectively targets the injured brain, increases DSF accumulation, and extends the time of the systemic circulation of DSF. C-β-LG/DSF can alleviate brain edema and inflammatory response, inhibit secondary brain injury, promote learning, and improve memory recovery in mice after trauma. Therefore, this study likely provided a new approach for reducing the secondary spread of TBI.

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) poses a major health challenge, with tens of millions of new cases reported globally every year. Brain damage resulting from TBI can vary significantly due to factors including injury severity, diffusivity, modality, time delay relative to impact, and exposure to repeated injury events. Untargeted lipidomic analysis of Sprague-Dawley rat serum within 24 hours of mild single and repeat controlled cortical impact (CCI) injury events led to the discovery of biomarker candidates of TBI. Lipid biomarkers have a unique potential to serve as objective molecular measures of the body’s response to injury as their alteration in brain tissue can be more freely observed than for larger protein markers. Animal serum was analyzed via ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) in positive and negative ion modes. Known lipid species were identified through matching to in-house tandem MS databases. Machine learning and feature selection approaches were used to construct lipid panels capable of distinguishing serum from injured and uninjured animals across a range of injury severities and timepoints within the first day of injury. The best multivariate lipid panels had over 90% cross-validated sensitivity, selectivity, and accuracy and consisted of species from nine different lipid classes. These mapped onto sphingolipid signaling, autophagy, necroptosis and glycerophospholipid metabolism pathways, with FDR corrected p-values better than 0.05.
