Gene Expression Signature of Traumatic Brain Injury.

ABSTRACT: Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a brain function change caused by external forces, which is one of the main causes of death and disability worldwide. The aim of this study was to identify early diagnostic markers and potential therapeutic targets for TBI. Methods: Differences between TBI and controls in GSE89866 and GSE104687 were analyzed. The two groups of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were combined for coexpression analysis, and the modules of interest were performed using enrichment analysis. Hub genes were identified by calculating area under curve (AUC) values of module genes, PPI network analysis, and functional similarity. Finally, the difference in immune cell infiltration between TBI and control was calculated by ssGSEA. Results: A total of 4,817 DEGs were identified in GSE89866 and 1,329 DEGs in GSE104687. They were clustered into nine modules. The genes of modules 1, 4, and 7 had the most crosstalk and were identified as important modules. Enrichment analysis revealed that they were mainly associated with neurodevelopment and immune inflammation. In the PPI network constructed by genes with top 50 AUC values in module genes, we identified the top 10 genes with the greatest connectivity. Among them, down-regulated RPL27, RPS4X, RPL23A, RPS15A, and RPL7A had similar functions and were identified as hub genes. In addition, DC and Tem were significantly up-regulated and down-regulated between TBI and control, respectively. Conclusion: We found that hub genes may have a diagnostic role for TBI. Molecular dysregulation mechanisms of TBI are associated with neurological and immune inflammation. These results may provide new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of TBI.

Gene expression profiles after traumatic brain injury

Project description:Time dependent-profiles in the gene expression level following lateral moderate fluid percussion injury in the rat brain We used microarray to elucidate relationship between the alteration of gene expression levels and the progression of brain damages following traumatic brain injury. To examine the levels of gene expression in the early phase of traumatic brain injury, we analyzed the gene expression at 3, 6, 12, and 48 h after trauma using the lateral moderate fluid percussion TBI model. The ratios of the gene expression level were compared between chips corresponding to the 3, 6 and 12 h fluid percussion groups and the sham group chips. On the other hand, the rations of gene expression level after 48 h FPI were compared with 48 h sham chip, because the gene expression levels of 48 h sham chip were distinct from sham group chips (3, 6 and 12 h) in the cluster and principal components analyses.

Analysis of Post-Traumatic Brain Injury Gene Expression Signature Reveals Tubulins, Nfe2l2, Nfkb, Cd44, and S100a4 as Treatment Targets.

Project description:We aimed to define the chronically altered gene expression signature of traumatic brain injury (TBI-sig) to discover novel treatments to reverse pathologic gene expression or reinforce the expression of recovery-related genes. Genome-wide RNA-sequencing was performed at 3 months post-TBI induced by lateral fluid-percussion injury in rats. We found 4964 regulated genes in the perilesional cortex and 1966 in the thalamus (FDR?<?0.05). TBI-sig was used for a LINCS analysis which identified 11 compounds that showed a strong connectivity with the TBI-sig in neuronal cell lines. Of these, celecoxib and sirolimus were recently reported to have a disease-modifying effect in in vivo animal models of epilepsy. Other compounds revealed by the analysis were BRD-K91844626, BRD-A11009626, NO-ASA, BRD-K55260239, SDZ-NKT-343, STK-661558, BRD-K75971499, ionomycin, and desmethylclomipramine. Network analysis of overlapping genes revealed the effects on tubulins (Tubb2a, Tubb3, Tubb4b), Nfe2l2, S100a4, Cd44, and Nfkb2, all of which are linked to TBI-relevant outcomes, including epileptogenesis and tissue repair. Desmethylclomipramine modulated most of the gene targets considered favorable for TBI outcome. Our data demonstrate long-lasting transcriptomics changes after TBI. LINCS analysis predicted that these changes could be modulated by various compounds, some of which are already in clinical use but never tested in TBI.

Chronic Gene Expression after Traumatic Brain Injury

Project description:This project continues our acute TBI studies and initiates chronic studies -- characterizing the temporal genomic profile of the injured brain up to 12 months post-TBI. Thus, the primary objective of this proposal is to determine the long-term effects of traumatic brain injury on gene expression in the hippocampus and cortex, two brain regions known to be particularly vulnerable to TBI.

The effect of progesterone dose on gene expression after traumatic brain injury.

Project description:Microarray-based transcriptional profiling was used to determine the effect of progesterone in the cortical contusion (CCI) model. Gene ontology (GO) analysis then evaluated the effect of dose on relevant biological pathways. Treatment (vehicle, progesterone 10 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg given i.p.) was started 4 h post-injury and administered every 12 h post-injury for up to 72 h, with the last injection 12 hr prior to death for the 24 h and 72 h groups. In the CCI-injured vehicle group compared to non-injured animals, expression of 1,114, 4,229, and 291 distinct genes changed >1.5-fold (p<0.05) at 24 h, 72 h, and 7 days, respectively. At 24 h, the effect of low-dose progesterone on differentially expressed genes was <20% the effect of higher dose compared to vehicle. GO analysis identified a significant effect of low- and high-dose progesterone treatment compared to vehicle on DNA damage response. At 72 h, high-dose progesterone treatment compared to vehicle affected expression of almost twice as many genes as did low-dose progesterone. Both low- and high-dose progesterone resulted in expression of genes regulating inflammatory response and apoptosis. At 7 days, there was only a modest difference in high-dose progesterone compared to vehicle, with only 14 differentially expressed genes. In contrast, low-dose progesterone resulted in 551 differentially expressed genes compared to vehicle. GO analysis identified genes for the low-dose treatment involved in positive regulation of cell proliferation, innate immune response, positive regulation of anti-apoptosis, and blood vessel remodeling.

Mild traumatic brain injury induces memory deficits with alteration of gene expression profile.

Project description:Repeated mild traumatic brain injury (rmTBI), the most common type of traumatic brain injuries, can result in neurological dysfunction and cognitive deficits. However, the molecular mechanisms and the long-term consequence of rmTBI remain elusive. In this study, we developed a modified rmTBI mouse model and found that rmTBI-induced transient neurological deficits and persistent impairments of spatial memory function. Furthermore, rmTBI mice had long-lasting detrimental effect on cognitive function, exhibiting memory deficits even 12 weeks after rmTBI. Microarray analysis of whole genome gene expression showed that rmTBI significantly altered the expression level of 87 genes which are involved in apoptosis, stress response, metabolism, and synaptic plasticity. The results indicate the potential mechanism underlying rmTBI-induced acute neurological deficits and its chronic effect on memory impairments. This study suggests that long-term monitoring and interventions for rmTBI individuals are essential for memory function recovery and reducing the risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases.

Gene expression in meningeal lymphatic endothelial cells following traumatic brain injury in mice.

Project description:Meningeal lymphatic vessels transport both the cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid to the deep cervical lymph nodes. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is accompanied by meningeal injury. We hypothesized that the TBI-induced meningeal injury would damage lymphatic vessels and affect brain function. We observed altered gene expression in meningeal lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) in a mouse model of TBI. Through flow cytometry-based cell sorting, meningeal LECs were obtained from a mouse model of controlled cortical impact 3 days after TBI. Microarray analysis, real-time polymerase chain reaction assays, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were performed to determine mRNA and protein expression levels in meningeal LECs. The number of meningeal LECs was significantly lower in the injury group than in the sham group 3 days after TBI. Additionally, the mRNA expression of lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan receptor 1 (a specific marker of lymphatic vessels) in meningeal LECs was significantly lower in the injury group than in the sham group. The mRNA and protein expression of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 4 and neuropilin 2 (markers of lymphangiogenesis) in meningeal LECs was significantly higher in the injury group than in the sham group. Our findings indicate that TBI is associated with the impairment of meningeal LECs and meningeal lymphangiogenesis, which implicates lymphatic vessel injury in the pathogenesis of this condition.

Effect of Xenon Treatment on Gene Expression in Brain Tissue after Traumatic Brain Injury in Rats.

Project description:The overactivation of inflammatory pathways and/or a deficiency of neuroplasticity may result in the delayed recovery of neural function in traumatic brain injury (TBI). A promising approach to protecting the brain tissue in TBI is xenon (Xe) treatment. However, xenon's mechanisms of action remain poorly clarified. In this study, the early-onset expression of 91 target genes was investigated in the damaged and in the contralateral brain areas (sensorimotor cortex region) 6 and 24 h after injury in a TBI rat model. The expression of genes involved in inflammation, oxidation, antioxidation, neurogenesis and neuroplasticity, apoptosis, DNA repair, autophagy, and mitophagy was assessed. The animals inhaled a gas mixture containing xenon and oxygen (ϕXe = 70%; ϕO2 25-30% 60 min) 15-30 min after TBI. The data showed that, in the contralateral area, xenon treatment induced the expression of stress genes (Irf1, Hmox1, S100A8, and S100A9). In the damaged area, a trend towards lower expression of the inflammatory gene Irf1 was observed. Thus, our results suggest that xenon exerts a mild stressor effect in healthy brain tissue and has a tendency to decrease the inflammation following damage, which might contribute to reducing the damage and activating the early compensatory processes in the brain post-TBI.

Cerebrovascular connexin expression: effects of traumatic brain injury.

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) results in dysfunction of the cerebrovasculature. Gap junctions coordinate vasomotor responses and evidence suggests that they are involved in cerebrovascular dysfunction after TBI. Gap junctions are comprised of connexin proteins (Cxs), of which Cx37, Cx40, Cx43, and Cx45 are expressed in vascular tissue. This study tests the hypothesis that TBI alters Cx mRNA and protein expression in cerebral vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells. Anesthetized (1.5% isoflurane) male Sprague-Dawley rats received sham or fluid-percussion TBI. Two, 6, and 24 h after, cerebral arteries were harvested, fresh-frozen for RNA isolation, or homogenized for Western blot analysis. Cerebral vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells were selected from frozen sections using laser capture microdissection. RNA was quantified by ribonuclease protection assay. The mRNA for all four Cx genes showed greater expression in the smooth muscle layer compared to the endothelial layer. Smooth muscle Cx43 mRNA expression was reduced 2 h and endothelial Cx45 mRNA expression was reduced 24 h after injury. Western blot analysis revealed that Cx40 protein expression increased, while Cx45 protein expression decreased 24 h after injury. These studies revealed significant changes in the mRNA and protein expression of specific vascular Cxs after TBI. This is the first demonstration of cell type-related differential expression of Cx mRNA in cerebral arteries, and is a first step in evaluating the effects of TBI on gap junction communication in the cerebrovasculature.
