Association of Plasma Metabolic Biomarker Sphingosine-1-Phosphate With Cerebral Collateral Circulation in Acute Ischemic Stroke.

ABSTRACT: Background: The contribution of metabolic profile to the cerebral collateral circulation in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has not been fully outlined. In this study, we conducted a metabolomic study to assess the relationship between the metabolic biomarkers and the collateral status of AIS. Methods: A two-stage study was conducted from September 2019 to June 2021 in our hospital. There were 96 subjects including 66 patients with AIS and 30 healthy controls in the discovery stage and 80 subjects including 53 patients with AIS and 27 healthy controls in the validation stage. Collateral circulation was assessed by the Tan score based on computed tomographic angiography (CTA). Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used to identify differential metabolic markers. Then, an ELISA was employed to detect the plasma levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). Results:There were 114 differential metabolites between patients with AIS and control groups and 37 differential metabolites between good collateral circulation (GCC) and poor collateral circulation (PCC) groups. The pathway enrichment analysis revealed that arginine biosynthesis was the only statistically significant pathway between AIS and control groups and sphingolipid metabolism was the only statistically significant pathway between GCC and PCC groups. The differential metabolites sphinganine-1-phosphate (SA1P) and S1P belong to the sphingolipid metabolism. In the discovery stage, when the GCC group was compared with the PCC group, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that plasma SA1P relative levels demonstrated an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.719 (95% CI: 0.582-0.834), and S1P levels demonstrated an AUC of 0.701 (95% CI: 0.567-0.819). In addition, both plasma SA1P and S1P relative levels showed significant negative correlations with the 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score. In the validation sample, higher plasma S1P levels were independent predictors of GCC (p = 0.014), and plasma S1P levels demonstrated an AUC of 0.738 (95% CI: 0.599-0.849) to differentiate patients with GCC from patients with PCC. In addition, plasma S1P levels also showed significant negative correlations with the 90-day mRS score. Conclusion: We first illustrated the association between plasma metabolic profiles and cerebral collateral circulation in patients with AIS. Plasma S1P levels might be a potential diagnostic biomarker for predicting collateral circulation status in patients with AIS.

Project description:Background and purposeCollateral growth after acute occlusion of an intracranial artery is triggered by increasing shear stress in preexisting collateral pathways. Recently, sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor-1 (S1PR1) on endothelial cells was reported to be essential in sensing fluid shear stress. Here, we evaluated the expression of S1PR1 in the hypoperfused mouse brain and investigated the effect of a selective S1PR1 agonist on leptomeningeal collateral growth and subsequent ischemic damage after focal ischemia.MethodsIn C57Bl/6 mice (n = 133) subjected to unilateral common carotid occlusion (CCAO) and sham surgery. The first series examined the time course of collateral growth, cell proliferation, and S1PR1 expression in the leptomeningeal arteries after CCAO. The second series examined the relationship between pharmacological regulation of S1PR1 and collateral growth of leptomeningeal anastomoses. Animals were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: LtCCAO and daily intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection for 7 days of an S1PR1 selective agonist (SEW2871, 5 mg/kg/day); sham surgery and daily i.p. injection for 7 days of SEW2871 after surgery; LtCCAO and daily i.p. injection for 7 days of SEW2871 and an S1PR1 inverse agonist (VPC23019, 0.5 mg/kg); LtCCAO and daily i.p. injection of DMSO for 7 days after surgery; and sham surgery and daily i.p. injection of DMSO for 7 days. Leptomeningeal anastomoses were visualized 14 days after LtCCAO by latex perfusion method, and a set of animals underwent subsequent permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) 7 days after the treatment termination. Neurological functions 1 hour, 1, 4, and 7 days and infarction volume 7 days after pMCAO were evaluated.ResultsIn parallel with the increase in S1PR1 mRNA levels, S1PR1 expression colocalized with endothelial cell markers in the leptomeningeal arteries, increased markedly on the side of the CCAO, and peaked 7 days after CCAO. Mitotic cell numbers in the leptomeningeal arteries increased after CCAO. Administration of the S1PR1 selective agonist significantly increased cerebral blood flow (CBF) and the diameter of leptomeningeal collateral vessels (42.9 ± 2.6 ?m) compared with the controls (27.6 ± 5.7 ?m; P < 0.01). S1PR1 inverse agonist administration diminished the effect of the S1PR1 agonist (P < 0.001). After pMCAO, S1PR1 agonist pretreated animals showed significantly smaller infarct volume (17.5% ± 4.0% vs. 7.7% ± 4.0%, P < 0.01) and better functional recovery than vehicle-treated controls.ConclusionsThese results suggest that S1PR1 is one of the principal regulators of leptomeningeal collateral recruitment at the site of increased shear stress and provide evidence that an S1PR1 selective agonist has a role in promoting collateral growth and preventing of ischemic damage and neurological dysfunction after subsequent stroke in patients with intracranial major artery stenosis or occlusion.
