Previous work indicates that inflammatory pathways associated with interleukin (IL)-1 and interferon signaling persist in the brain chronically after TBI. Several cell types in the brain express the interleukin-1 receptor-1 (IL-1R1) including endothelia, astrocytes, and neurons. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine if IL-1R1-mediated signaling after TBI promotes neuroinflammation and disrupts neuronal homeostasis and cognition. Here, male and female wild-type and global IL1R1 knock-out (KO) mice were used. Mice were subjected to a diffuse TBI induced by midline fluid percussion injury and several parameters were assessed 3, 7, and 30 days post injury (dpi). At 3 dpi, TBI increased gliosis, cortical inflammation, and the accumulation of leukocytes in the cortex. TBI-associated increase in leukocytes in the brain and neurofilament light chain (NfL) in the plasma 3 dpi were reduced by IL1R1KO. At 7 dpi, the TBI increased gliosis and the accumulation of leukocytes in the cortex were independent of IL-1R1. IL1R1KO reduced the TBI associated increases in Il1b, Tnfa, and Irf7 mRNA in the hippocampus and cortex. Moreover, TBI reduced fear memory (cued) 7 dpi and increased NfL in the plasma. Both deficits were attenuated by IL1R1KO. IL1R1 tdTomato reporter mice confirmed that IL1R1 was expressed in the DG and increased by TBI 7 dpi. Next, snRNA-seq studies demonstrated a robust influence of TBI on RNA profiles in the dentate gyrus (DG) and CA1 of the hippocampus 7 dpi. The CA1 and DG had 2572 and 1012 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) influenced by TBI, respectively. Of these DEGs, the majority were decreased after TBI with 73 and 96% were prevented in the CA1 and DG by IL1R1KO. These DEGs were associated with pathways for learning and memory, T-cell signaling, and synapse organization and maintenance. Furthermore, TBI-associated deficits in fear conditioning 30 dpi was attenuated in IL1R1KO mice. Consistent with this neuronal dysfunction in the hippocampus, there was IL-1R1-dependent decreased neuronal activation (pCREB) 30 dpi. Overall, these data indicate that IL-1R1 signaling after TBI mediated neuronal deficits associated with impaired cognition.","dates":{"publication":"2026/09/17"},"accession":"GSE316519","cross_references":{"GSM":["GSM9455281","GSM9455280","GSM9455283","GSM9455282"],"GPL":["34328"],"GSE":["316519"],"taxon":["Mus musculus"],"PMID":["[41780806]"]}}
