Project description:Blood monocytes/macrophages infiltrate the brain after ischemic stroke and critically influence brain injury and regeneration. We investigated stroke-induced transcriptomic changes of monocytes/macrophages by RNA sequencing profiling, using a mouse model of permanent focal cerebral ischemia. Compared to non-ischemic conditions, brain ischemia induced only moderate genomic changes in blood monocytes, but triggered robust genomic reprogramming in monocytes/macrophages invading the brain. Surprisingly, functional enrichment analysis of the transcriptome of brain macrophages revealed significant overrepresentation of biological processes linked to neurovascular remodeling, such as angiogenesis and axonal regeneration, as early as 5 days after stroke, suggesting a previously underappreciated role for macrophages in initiating post-stroke brain repair. Upstream Regulator analysis predicted peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) as a master regulator driving the transcriptional reprogramming in post-stroke brain macrophages. Importantly, myeloid cell-specific PPARγ knockout (mKO) mice demonstrated lower post-stroke angiogenesis and neurogenesis than wild-type mice, which correlated significantly with the exacerbation of post-stroke neurological deficits in mKO mice. Collectively, our findings reveal a novel repair-enhancing transcriptome in brain macrophages during post-stroke neurovascular remodeling. As a master switch controlling genomic reprogramming, PPARγ is a rational therapeutic target for promoting and maintaining beneficial macrophage functions, facilitating neurorestoration, and improving long-term functional recovery after ischemic stroke.

Project description:Infiltration of peripheral immune cells after blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction causes severe inflammation after a stroke. Although the endothelial glycocalyx functions as a barrier to circulating cells, the relationship between stroke severity and glycocalyx dysfunction remains unclear. In this study, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), a component of the endothelial glycocalyx, in ischemic stroke were studied using a photochemically induced thrombosis (PIT) mouse model. As results, decreased levels of heparan sulfate (HS) and chondroitin sulfate (CS) and increased activity of hyaluronidase 1 and heparanase (HPSE) were observed in ischemic brain tissues. HPSE expression in cerebral vessels increased after stroke onset and infarct volume greatly decreased after co-administration of N-acetylcysteine (NAC)+GAG oligosaccharides as compared to NAC administration alone. These results suggest that the endothelial glycocalyx was injured after the onset of stroke. Interestingly, scission activity of proHPSE produced by HBMEC/ciβ and HEK293 cells transfected with hHPSE1 cDNA were activated by acrolein exposure. We identified the ACR modified amino acid residues of proHPSE using nano LC-MS/MS, suggesting that ACR modification of Lys139 (6-kDa linker), and Lys107 and Lys161, located in the immediate vicinity of the 6-kDa linker, at least in part, is attributed to the activation of proHPSE. Since proHPSE, but not HPSE, localizes outside cells by binding with HS proteoglycans, ACR-modified proHPSE represents a promising target to protect the endothelial glycocalyx.

Project description:Microglia are resident myeloid cells in the central nervous system (CNS) that regulate homeostasis and protect CNS from damage and infection. The phenotype of microglia is critical in regulating the propagation and resolution of inflammatory responses after ischemic stroke. However, little is known of its complexity and heterogeneity in the above context. Here, using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of over 11,000 cells from the mice ischemic brain tissues, we demonstrated a previously undefined molecular heterogeneity among microglia clusters following ischemic stroke.

Project description:The purpose of this project was to elucidate gene expression in the peripheral whole blood of acute ischemic stroke patients to identify a panel of genes for the diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Peripheral blood samples were collected in Paxgene Blood RNA tubes from stroke patients who were >18 years of age with MRI diagnosed ischemic stroke and controls who were non-stroke neurologically healthy. The results suggest a panel of genes can be used to diagnose ischemic stroke, and provide information about the biological pathways involved in the response to acute ischemic stroke in humans. Total RNA extracted from whole blood in n=39 ischemic stroke patients compared to n=24 healthy control subjects.

Project description:The current treatment options for ischemic stroke aim to achieve reperfusion but are time critical. Novel therapeutic approaches that can be given beyond the limited time window of 3 - 4.5 hours are still an unmet need to be addressed to improve stroke outcome. The lack of oxygen and glucose in the area of ischemic injury initiates a pathological cascade leading to blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, inflammation and neuronal cell death, a process that may be intercepted to limit stroke progression. Pericytes located at the blood/brain interface are one of the first responders to hypoxia in stroke and therefore a potential target cell for early stroke interventions. Using single-cell RNA sequencing in a mouse model of permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion, we investigated the temporal differences in transcriptomic signatures in pericytes at 1, 12, and 24 hours after stroke compared to the contralateral hemisphere. Our results reveal a stroke-specific subcluster of pericytes that is present at 12 and 24 hours and characterized by the upregulation of genes mainly related to cytokine signalling and immune response. This study identifies temporal transcriptional changes in the acute phase of ischemic stroke that reflect the early response of pericytes to the ischemic insult and its secondary consequences and may constitute potential future therapeutic targets.

Project description:Background: Previous study showed that stroke may be a potential first sign of neoplasia. But the relationship between them remains unclear. Besides, ischemic stroke is a complex brain disease, which involves cell death or complex immune regulation. Thus, it is necessary to reveal the association of tumor immune microenvironment and cell death with ischemic stroke. Methods: Here, a photothrombosis-induced ischemic injury models of brain and skull was established. We compared and analyzed the pattern of gene expression profile between brain and skull after ischemic injury by transcriptome analysis. Further, we investigated the enrichment of relevant differential genes in cancer pathways and cell death pathways, and analyzed changes in the immune microenvironment after ischemic injury. Moreover, the pan-cancer genomic and prognosis analysis of ischemic injury related gene set were performed. Results: The results showed that the gene expression patterns were different in temporal and spatial locations after ischemic injury. We found that the effect on the transcriptome of the brain after skull ischemic injury was particularly large, but it could be recovered in a short period, while the effect on the skull after brain ischemic injury was long-lasting. The expression of genes related to ischemic injury is also associated with cell death and cancer hallmark pathways. In addition, changes in the abundance of immune cells indicate that brain ischemic injury may disrupt its immune microenvironment for a longer time, while skull can better balance the stability of immune microenvironment. Moreover, the brain ischemic injury-related gene sets are highly correlated with a variety of tumors, especially GBM, KIRC, LGG and UVM after stroke have a greater risk of death. Conclusion: This study gives us a new understanding of the role of the skull in brain ischemic injury, and reveals the association of tumor immune microenvironment and cell death with ischemic stroke.

Project description:Roles of reactive perivascular astrocytes in dysregulation of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) function and cerebral perfusion are not well defined. Here, we investigated transformation of reactive astrocyte function for vascular repair after ischemic stroke by targeted deletion of astrocytic Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 in Gfap-CreERT2+/-;Nhe1f/f (Nhe1 Astro-KO) mice. Control Gfap-CreERT2+/-;Nhe1f/f (wild-type) mice displayed BBB damage (elevated endothelial transcytosis and intracellular vesicles) and persistent cerebral hypoperfusion in an ischemic stroke model (transient middle cerebral artery occlusion). In contrast, Nhe1 Astro-KO mice exhibited significantly less endothelial transcytosis and vesicle formation, and increased angiogenesis and cerebral blood perfusion (CBF) post-stroke. Bulk RNA-sequencing transcriptome analysis of isolated GFAP+ reactive astrocytes from wild-type and Nhe1 Astro-KO ischemic brains revealed that ~177 genes were differentially upregulated, with the Wnt7a mRNA among the top upregulated genes, along with additional Wnt pathway genes (Wnt7b, Fzd9, Fzd10, and Ndp). Abundant Wnt7a/b and β-catenin protein expression was detected in cerebral vessels of Nhe1 Astro-KO ischemic brains but not in the wild-type brains. Selective activation of Wnt/β-catenin pathway in cerebral vessels of Nhe1 Astro-KO ischemic brains was further validated using the Wnt reporter line TCF/LEF::H2B-eGFP; Gfap-CreERT2+/-;Nhe1f/f mice. Lastly, the role of Wnt/β-catenin pathway in resistance of Nhe1 Astro-KO mice to stroke-mediated BBB damage was tested by administration of Wnt/β-catenin inhibitor XAV-939. Taken together, we report that transforming reactive astrocyte function by upregulating astrocytic Wnt/β-catenin signaling activity is a novel mechanism to reduce the BBB endothelial damage, stimulate vascular repair, and restore cerebral blood flow after ischemic stroke.
