Project description:Neonatal germinal matrix hemorrhage/intraventricular hemorrhage is common and often results in hydrocephalus. The pathogenesis of posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus is not fully understood.To explore the potential role of hemoglobin and iron released after hemorrhage.Artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF), hemoglobin, or iron was injected into the right lateral ventricle of postnatal day-7 Sprague Dawley rats. Ventricle size, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression, and the presence of iron were evaluated 24 and 72 hours after injection. A subset of animals was treated with an iron chelator (deferoxamine) or vehicle for 24 hours after hemoglobin injection, and ventricle size and cell death were evaluated.Intraventricular injection of hemoglobin and iron resulted in ventricular enlargement at 24 hours compared with the injection of aCSF. Protoporphyrin IX, the iron-deficient immediate heme precursor, did not result in ventricular enlargement after injection into the ventricle. HO-1, the enzyme that releases iron from heme, was increased in the hippocampus and cortex of hemoglobin-injected animals at 24 hours compared with aCSF-injected controls. Treatment with an iron chelator, deferoxamine, decreased hemoglobin-induced ventricular enlargement and cell death.Intraventricular injection of hemoglobin and iron can induce hydrocephalus. Treatment with an iron chelator reduced hemoglobin-induced ventricular enlargement. This has implications for the pathogenesis and treatment of posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus.aCSF, artificial cerebrospinal fluidDAB, 3,3'-diaminobenzidine-4HClGMH-IVH, germinal matrix hemorrhage/intraventricular hemorrhageHO-1, heme oxygenase-1ICH, intracerebral hemorrhagePBS, phosphate-buffered salineSVZ, subventricular zoneTBST, tris-buffered saline with Tween 20.

Project description:Background and Purpose- Preterm neonates with intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) are at risk for posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus and poor neurological outcomes. Iron has been implicated in ventriculomegaly, hippocampal injury, and poor outcomes following IVH. We hypothesized that levels of cerebrospinal fluid blood breakdown products and endogenous iron clearance proteins in neonates with IVH differ from those of neonates with IVH who subsequently develop posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus. Methods- Premature neonates with an estimated gestational age at birth <30 weeks who underwent lumbar puncture for clinical evaluation an average of 2 weeks after birth were evaluated. Groups consisted of controls (n=16), low-grade IVH (grades I-II; n=4), high-grade IVH (grades III-IV; n=6), and posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus (n=9). Control subjects were preterm neonates born at <30 weeks' gestation without brain abnormality or hemorrhage on cranial ultrasound, who underwent lumbar puncture for clinical purposes. Cerebrospinal fluid hemoglobin, total bilirubin, total iron, ferritin, ceruloplasmin, transferrin, haptoglobin, and hemopexin were quantified. Results- Cerebrospinal fluid hemoglobin levels were increased in posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus compared with high-grade IVH (9.45 versus 6.06 µg/mL, P<0.05) and cerebrospinal fluid ferritin levels were increased in posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus compared with controls (511.33 versus 67.08, P<0.01). No significant group differences existed for the other cerebrospinal fluid blood breakdown and iron-handling proteins tested. We observed positive correlations between ventricular enlargement (frontal occipital horn ratio) and ferritin (Pearson r=0.67), hemoglobin (Pearson r=0.68), and total bilirubin (Pearson r=0.69). Conclusions- Neonates with posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus had significantly higher levels of hemoglobin than those with high-grade IVH. Levels of blood breakdown products, hemoglobin, ferritin, and bilirubin correlated with ventricular size. There was no elevation of several iron-scavenging proteins in cerebrospinal fluid in neonates with posthemorrhagic hydrocpehalus, indicative of posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus as a disease state occurring when endogenous iron clearance mechanisms are overwhelmed.

Project description:Background CD47, a glycoprotein on red blood cell membranes, inhibits phagocytosis via interaction with signal regulatory protein α on phagocytes. Our previous research has demonstrated that blocking CD47 accelerates hematoma clearance and reduces brain injury after intracerebral hemorrhage. The current study investigated whether phagocytosis or erythrocyte CD47 impacts hematoma resolution and hydrocephalus development after intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). Methods Adult (3-month-old) male Fischer 344 rats were intraventricularly injected with 200 μl autologous blood, mixed with either CD47 blocking antibody or isotype IgG, or 200 μl saline as control. In subgroups of CD47 blocking antibody treated rats, clodronate liposomes (to deplete microglia/monocyte-derived macrophages) or control liposomes were co-injected. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to evaluate ventricular volume and intraventricular T2* lesion volume (estimating hematoma volume). The brains were harvested after 4 or 72 h for histology to evaluate phagocytosis. Results In adult male rats, CD47 blocking antibody alleviated hydrocephalus development by day 3. In addition, the CD47 blocking antibody reduced intraventricular T2* lesion and T2* non-hypointense lesion size after IVH through day 1 to day 3. Erythrophagocytosis was observed as soon as 4 h after IVH and was enhanced on day 3. Furthermore, intra-hematoma infiltration of CD68, heme oxygenase-1 and ferritin positive phagocytes were upregulated by CD47 blockade by day 3. Clodronate liposomes co-injection caused more severe hydrocephalus and weight loss. Conclusion Blocking CD47 in the hematoma accelerated hematoma clearance and alleviated hemolysis and hydrocephalus development after IVH, suggesting CD47 might be valuable in the future treatment for IVH.

Project description:BackgroundHydrocephalus is a severe complication of intracerebral hemorrhage with ventricular extension (ICH-IVH) and causes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) accumulation. The choroid plexus epithelium plays an important role in CSF secretion and constitutes the blood-CSF barrier within the brain-immune system interface. Although the NLRP3 inflammasome, as a key component of the innate immune system, promotes neuroinflammation, its role in the pathogenesis of hydrocephalus after hemorrhage has not been investigated. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the potential mechanism of NLRP3 in hydrocephalus to discover a potential marker for targeted therapy.MethodsA rat model of hydrocephalus after ICH-IVH was developed through autologous blood infusion in wild-type and Nlrp3-/- rats. By studying the features and processes of the model, we investigated the relationship between the NLRP3 inflammasome and CSF hypersecretion in the choroid plexus.ResultsThe ICH-IVH model rats showed ventricular dilation accompanied by CSF hypersecretion for 3 days. Based on the choroid plexus RNA-seq and proteomics results, we found that an inflammatory response was activated. The NLRP3 inflammasome was investigated, and the expression levels of NLRP3 inflammasome components reached a peak at 3 days after ICH-IVH. Inhibition of NLRP3 by an MCC950 inflammasome inhibitor or Nlrp3 knockout decreased CSF secretion and ventricular dilation and attenuated neurological deficits after ICH-IVH. The mechanism underlying the neuroprotective effects of NLRP3 inhibition involved decreased phosphorylation of NKCC1, which is a major protein that regulates CSF secretion by altering Na+- and K+-coupled water transport, via MCC950 or Nlrp3 knockout. In combination with the in vitro experiments, this experiment confirmed the involvement of the NLRP3/p-NKCC1 pathway and Na+ and K+ flux.ConclusionsThis study demonstrates that NKCC1 phosphorylation in the choroid plexus epithelium promotes NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated CSF hypersecretion and that NLRP3 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hydrocephalus after hemorrhage. These findings provide a new therapeutic strategy for treating hydrocephalus.

Project description:BackgroundIntraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH) have a complex pathophysiology involving inflammatory response, ventricular zone and cell-cell junction disruption, and choroid-plexus (ChP) hypersecretion. Increased cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytokines, extracellular matrix proteins, and blood metabolites have been noted in IVH/PHH, but osmolality and electrolyte disturbances have not been evaluated in human infants with these conditions. We hypothesized that CSF total protein, osmolality, electrolytes, and immune cells increase in PHH.MethodsCSF samples were obtained from lumbar punctures of control infants and infants with IVH prior to the development of PHH and any neurosurgical intervention. Osmolality, total protein, and electrolytes were measured in 52 infants (18 controls, 10 low grade (LG) IVH, 13 high grade (HG) IVH, and 11 PHH). Serum electrolyte concentrations, and CSF and serum cell counts within 1-day of clinical sampling were obtained from clinical charts. Frontal occipital horn ratio (FOR) was measured for estimating the degree of ventriculomegaly. Dunn or Tukey's post-test ANOVA analysis were used for pair-wise comparisons.ResultsCSF osmolality, sodium, potassium, and chloride were elevated in PHH compared to control (p = 0.012 - < 0.0001), LGIVH (p = 0.023 - < 0.0001), and HGIVH (p = 0.015 - 0.0003), while magnesium and calcium levels were higher compared to control (p = 0.031) and LGIVH (p = 0.041). CSF total protein was higher in both HGIVH and PHH compared to control (p = 0.0009 and 0.0006 respectively) and LGIVH (p = 0.034 and 0.028 respectively). These differences were not reflected in serum electrolyte concentrations nor calculated osmolality across the groups. However, quantitatively, CSF sodium and chloride contributed 86% of CSF osmolality change between control and PHH; and CSF osmolality positively correlated with CSF sodium (r, p = 0.55,0.0015), potassium (r, p = 0.51,0.0041), chloride (r, p = 0.60,0.0004), but not total protein across the entire patient cohort. CSF total cells (p = 0.012), total nucleated cells (p = 0.0005), and percent monocyte (p = 0.016) were elevated in PHH compared to control. Serum white blood cell count increased in PHH compared to control (p = 0.042) but there were no differences in serum cell differential across groups. CSF total nucleated cells also positively correlated with CSF osmolality, sodium, potassium, and total protein (p = 0.025 - 0.0008) in the whole cohort.ConclusionsCSF osmolality increased in PHH, largely driven by electrolyte changes rather than protein levels. However, serum electrolytes levels were unchanged across groups. CSF osmolality and electrolyte changes were correlated with CSF total nucleated cells which were also increased in PHH, further suggesting PHH is a neuro-inflammatory condition.

Project description:BackgroundIntraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a frequent complication in extreme and very preterm births. Despite a high risk of death and impaired neurodevelopment, the precise prognosis of infants with IVH remains unclear. The objective of this study was to evaluate the rate and predictive factors of evolution to post hemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH) requiring a shunt, in newborns with IVH and to report their neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 years of age.MethodsAmong all preterm newborns admitted to the department of neonatalogy at Rouen University Hospital, France between January 2000 and December 2013, 122 had an IVH and were included in the study. Newborns with grade 1 IVH according to the Papile classification were excluded.ResultsAt 2-year, 18% (n = 22) of our IVH cohort required permanent cerebro spinal fluid (CSF) derivation. High IVH grade, low gestational age at birth and increased head circumference were risk factors for PHH. The rate of death of IVH was 36.9% (n = 45). The rate of cerebral palsy was 55.9% (n = 43) in the 77 surviving patients (49.4%). Risk factors for impaired neurodevelopment were high grade IVH and increased head circumference.ConclusionHigh IVH grade was strongly correlated with death and neurodevelopmental outcome. The impact of an increased head circumference highlights the need for early management. CSF biomarkers and new medical treatments such as antenatal magnesium sulfate have emerged and could predict and improve the prognosis of these newborns with PHH.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate whether delayed appearance of intraventricular hemorrhage (dIVH) represents an independent entity from intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) present on admission CT or is primarily related to the time interval between symptom onset and admission CT.MethodsA total of 282 spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients, admitted February 2009-March 2014 to the neurological intensive care unit of a tertiary care university hospital, were prospectively enrolled in the ICH Outcomes Project. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine associations with acute mortality and functional long-term outcome (modified Rankin Scale).ResultsA cohort of 282 ICH patients was retrospectively studied: 151 (53.5%) had intraventricular hemorrhage on initial CT scan (iIVH). Of the remaining 131 patients, 19 (14.5%) developed IVH after the initial CT scan (dIVH). The median times from symptom onset to admission CT were 1.1, 6.0, and 7.4 hours for the dIVH, iIVH, and no IVH groups (Mann-Whitney U test, dIVH vs iIVH, p < 0.001) and median time from onset to dIVH detection was 7.2 hours. The increase in ICH volume following hospital admission was larger in dIVH than in iIVH and no IVH patients (mean 17.6, 0.2, and 0.4 mL). After controlling for components of the ICH score and hematoma expansion, presence of IVH on initial CT was associated with discharge mortality and poor outcome at 3, 6, and 12 months, but dIVH was not associated with any of the outcome measures.ConclusionsIn ICH patients, associated IVH on admission imaging is commonly encountered and is associated with poor long-term outcome. In contrast, dIVH on subsequent scans is far less common and does not appear to portend worse outcome.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the temporal pattern and relevant associations of CSF inflammatory measures after intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH).MethodsWe analyzed prospectively collected CSF cell counts and protein and glucose levels from participants in the Clot Lysis Evaluation of Accelerated Resolution of IVH phase III (CLEAR III) trial. Corrected leukocyte count and cell index were calculated to adjust for CSF leukocytes attributable to circulating blood. Data were chronologically plotted. CSF inflammatory measures (daily, mean, median, maximum, and cases with highest quartile response) were correlated with initial IVH volume, IVH clearance rate, thrombolytic treatment, bacterial infection, and adjudicated clinical outcome at 30 and 180 days.ResultsA total of 11,376 data points of CSF results from 464 trial participants were analyzed. Measures of CSF inflammatory response evolved during the resolution of IVH. This was significantly more pronounced with initial IVH volume exceeding 20 mL. Intraventricular alteplase was associated with a significantly augmented inflammatory response compared to saline, even after correcting for initial IVH volume. There was an association but nonpredictive correlation of CSF inflammation measures with culture-positive CSF bacterial infection. None of the CSF inflammatory measures, including cases with upper quartile inflammatory response, was associated with a significant detrimental effect on 30 or 180 days functional outcome or mortality after multivariate adjustment for measures of disease severity.ConclusionsAseptic CSF inflammation after IVH is primarily dependent on the volume of initial bleed. Thrombolysis intensifies the inflammatory response, with no apparent detrimental effect on clinical outcome.Clinicaltrialsgov identifierNCT00784134.

Project description:Intraventricular hemorrhage is a common complication of preterm infants. Mutations in the type IV procollagen gene, COL4A1, are associated with cerebral small vessel disease with hemorrhage in adults and fetuses. We report a rare variant in COL4A1 associated with intraventricular hemorrhage in dizygotic preterm twins. These results expand the spectrum of diseases attributable to mutations in type IV procollagens.

Project description:ImportanceIntraventricular thrombolysis reduces intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) volume in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), but it is unclear if a similar association with parenchymal ICH volume exists.ObjectiveTo evaluate the association between intraventricular alteplase use and ICH volume as well as the association between a change in parenchymal ICH volume and long-term functional outcomes.Design, setting, and participantsThis cohort study was a post hoc exploratory analysis of data from the Clot Lysis: Evaluating Accelerated Resolution of Intraventricular Hemorrhage phase 3 randomized clinical trial with blinded outcome assessments. Between September 1, 2009, and January 31, 2015, patients with ICH and IVH were randomized to receive either intraventricular alteplase or normal saline via an external ventricular drain. Participants with primary IVH were excluded. Data analyses were performed between January 1 and June 30, 2021.ExposureRandomization to receive intraventricular alteplase.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was the change in parenchymal ICH volume between the hematoma stability and end-of-treatment computed tomography scans. Secondary outcomes were a modified Rankin Scale score higher than 3 and mortality, both of which were assessed at 6 months. The association between alteplase and change in parenchymal ICH volume was assessed using multiple linear regression, whereas the associations between change in parenchymal ICH volume and 6-month outcomes were assessed using multiple logistic regression. Prespecified subgroup analyses were performed for baseline IVH volume, admission ICH volume, and ICH location.ResultsA total of 454 patients (254 men [55.9%]; mean [SD] age, 59 [11] years) were included in the study. Of these patients, 230 (50.7%) were randomized to receive alteplase and 224 (49.3%) to receive normal saline. The alteplase group had a greater mean (SD) reduction in parenchymal ICH volume compared with the saline group (1.8 [0.2] mL vs 0.4 [0.1] mL; P < .001). In the primary analysis, alteplase use was associated with a change in the parenchymal ICH volume in the unadjusted analysis per 1-mL change (β, 1.37; 95% CI, 0.92-1.81; P < .001) and in multivariable linear regression analysis that was adjusted for demographic characteristics, stability ICH and IVH volumes, ICH location, and time to first dose of study drug per 1-mL change (β, 1.20; 95% CI, 0.79-1.62; P < .001). In the secondary analyses, no association was found between change in parenchymal ICH volume and poor outcome (odds ratio [OR], 0.97; 95% CI 0.87-1.10; P = .64) or mortality (OR, 0.97; 95% CI 0.99-1.08; P = .59). Similar results were observed in the subgroup analyses.Conclusions and relevanceThis study found that intraventricular alteplase use in patients with a large IVH was associated with a small reduction in parenchymal ICH volume, but this association did not translate into improved functional outcomes or mortality. Intraventricular thrombolysis should be examined in patients with moderate to large ICH with IVH, especially in a thalamic location.
