Protective and detrimental effects of neuroectodermal cell-derived tissue factor in mouse models of stroke.

ABSTRACT: Within the CNS, a dysregulated hemostatic response contributes to both hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes. Tissue factor (TF), the primary initiator of the extrinsic coagulation cascade, plays an essential role in hemostasis and also contributes to thrombosis. Using both genetic and pharmacologic approaches, we characterized the contribution of neuroectodermal (NE) cell TF to the pathophysiology of stroke. We used mice with various levels of TF expression and found that astrocyte TF activity reduced to ~5% of WT levels was still sufficient to maintain hemostasis after hemorrhagic stroke but was also low enough to attenuate inflammation, reduce damage to the blood-brain barrier, and improve outcomes following ischemic stroke. Pharmacologic inhibition of TF during the reperfusion phase of ischemic stroke attenuated neuronal damage, improved behavioral deficit, and prevented mortality of mice. Our data demonstrate that NE cell TF limits bleeding complications associated with the transition from ischemic to hemorrhagic stroke and also contributes to the reperfusion injury after ischemic stroke. The high level of TF expression in the CNS is likely the result of selective pressure to limit intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) after traumatic brain injury but, in the modern era, poses the additional risk of increased ischemia-reperfusion injury after ischemic stroke.

Project description:Here, we aimed to clarify the role of CXC chemokine receptor (CXCR) 2 in macrophage migration-inhibitory factor (MIF)-mediated effects after myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. As a pleiotropic chemokine-like cytokine, MIF has been identified to activate multiple receptors, including CD74 and CXCR2. In models of myocardial infarction, MIF exerts both proinflammatory effects and protective effects in cardiomyocytes. Similarly, CXCR2 displays opposing effects in resident versus circulating cells.Using bone marrow transplantation, we generated chimeric mice with Cxcr2(-/-) bone marrow-derived inflammatory cells and wild-type (wt) resident cells (wt/Cxcr2(-/-)), Cxcr2(-/-) cardiomyocytes and wt bone marrow-derived cells (Cxcr2(-/-)/wt), and wt controls reconstituted with wt bone marrow (wt/wt). All groups were treated with anti-MIF or isotype control antibody before they underwent myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. Blocking MIF increased infarction size and impaired cardiac function in wt/wt and wt/CXCR2(-/-) mice but ameliorated functional parameters in Cxcr2(-/-)/wt mice, as analyzed by echocardiography and Langendorff perfusion. Neutrophil infiltration and angiogenesis were unaltered by MIF blockade or Cxcr2 deficiency. Monocyte infiltration was blunted in wt/Cxcr2(-/-) mice and reduced by MIF blockade in wt/wt and Cxcr2(-/-)/wt mice. Furthermore, MIF blockade attenuated collagen content in all groups in a CXCR2-independent manner.The compartmentalized and opposing effects of MIF after myocardial ischemia and reperfusion are largely mediated by CXCR2. Although MIF confers protective effects by improving myocardial healing and function through CXCR2 in resident cells, thereby complementing paracrine effects through CD74/AMP-activated protein kinase, it exerts detrimental effects on CXCR2-bearing inflammatory cells by increasing monocyte infiltration and impairing heart function. These dichotomous findings should be considered when developing novel therapeutic strategies to treat myocardial infarction.

Project description:Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress are paradoxically implicated in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and cardioprotection. However, the precise interpretation for the dual roles of ROS and its relationship with the ER stress during I/R remain elusive. Here we investigated the concentration-dependent effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) preconditioning (PC) and postconditioning (PoC) on the ER stress and prosurvival reperfusion injury salvage kinase (RISK) activation using an ex vivo rat myocardial I/R model. The effects of H2O2 PC and PoC showed three phases. At a low level (1 ?M), H2O2 exacerbated I/R-induced left ventricular (LV) contractile dysfunction and ER stress, as indicated by enhanced phosphorylation of protein kinase-like ER kinase and expressions of glucose-regulated protein 78, X-box-binding protein 1 splicing variant, TNF receptor-associated factor 2, activating transcription factor-6 cleaved 50 kDa fragment, and caspase-12 cleavage, but the I/R-induced RISK activation including protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) and protein kinase C? (PKC?) remained unchanged. Consistently, the postischemic LV performance in 1 ?M H2O2 PC and PoC groups was improved by inhibiting ER stress with 4-phenyl butyric acid but not affected by the ER stress inducer, tunicamycin. At a moderate level (10-100 ?M), H2O2 significantly improved postischemic LV performance and enhanced RISK activation, but it did no further alter the ER stress. The cardioprotection but not ER stress was abrogated with Akt or PKC? inhibitor wortmannin or ?V1-2. At a high level (1 mM), H2O2 markedly aggravated the reperfusion injury and the oxidative stress but did not further enhance the RISK activation. In addition, 1 or 20 ?M of H2O2 PC did not alter cardioprotective effects of ischemic PC in postischemic contractile performance and protein oxidation. Our data suggest that the differential effects of H2O2 are derived from a concentration-dependent wrestling between its detrimental stress and protective signaling.
