Decreased neutrophil levels in mice with traumatic brain injury after cape administration.

ABSTRACT: Introduction:Peripheral leukocytes can worsen brain damage due to the release of cytotoxic mediators that interfere the blood brain barrier function. One of the oxidants released by activation leukocyte is hypochlorite acid (HOCl) which is formed through the myeloperoxidase (MPO)-H2O2-Cl- system. The neuroprotective effects of an experimental anti-inflammatory drug Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester (CAPE) tested in a Traumatic brain injury (TBI) model using Myeloperoxidase (MPO) analysis. Methods:This study compares the acute inflammatory response to TBI over time, as measured by MPO activity. Adult Sprague mice were treated for head trauma with marmarou model. At 24 h before trauma, all animals were blood test (n = 10) to examine MPO, then the animal was divided into 2 groups of injured animals treated with CAPE (n = 5), and those not treated with CAPE (n = 5). We used the MPO test to identify the level of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) on day 4 and day 7. Results:Showed an increase in PMNL infiltration in CAPE untreated animals, this change significantly (P < 0.05) decreased at group of animals treated with CAPE. MPO serum activity in the CAPE untreated group vs treated with CAPE on day 4 ± 11920410.076 (Standard deviation {SD} 895355.169) vs 6663184.485 (SD 895355.169) p < 0,05 and on day 7 ± 14223286.992 (SD 802762.401) vs 9284222.028 (SD 953098.093) p < 0,05. These data indicate that MPO activity after TBI increases on day 4 also on day 7 and improves after being treated with CAPE. Conclusion:CAPE can reduce Neutrophil serum levels there by preventing brain damage in TBI.

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. Progesterone has been shown to improve neurologic outcome in multiple experimental models and two early-phase trials involving patients with TBI.We conducted a double-blind, multicenter clinical trial in which patients with severe, moderate-to-severe, or moderate acute TBI (Glasgow Coma Scale score of 4 to 12, on a scale from 3 to 15, with lower scores indicating a lower level of consciousness) were randomly assigned to intravenous progesterone or placebo, with the study treatment initiated within 4 hours after injury and administered for a total of 96 hours. Efficacy was defined as an increase of 10 percentage points in the proportion of patients with a favorable outcome, as determined with the use of the stratified dichotomy of the Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale score at 6 months after injury. Secondary outcomes included mortality and the Disability Rating Scale score.A total of 882 of the planned sample of 1140 patients underwent randomization before the trial was stopped for futility with respect to the primary outcome. The study groups were similar with regard to baseline characteristics; the median age of the patients was 35 years, 73.7% were men, 15.2% were black, and the mean Injury Severity Score was 24.4 (on a scale from 0 to 75, with higher scores indicating greater severity). The most frequent mechanism of injury was a motor vehicle accident. There was no significant difference between the progesterone group and the placebo group in the proportion of patients with a favorable outcome (relative benefit of progesterone, 0.95; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.85 to 1.06; P=0.35). Phlebitis or thrombophlebitis was more frequent in the progesterone group than in the placebo group (relative risk, 3.03; CI, 1.96 to 4.66). There were no significant differences in the other prespecified safety outcomes.This clinical trial did not show a benefit of progesterone over placebo in the improvement of outcomes in patients with acute TBI.
