Multiple Roles of Peripheral Immune System in Modulating Ischemia/Hypoxia-Induced Neuroinflammation.

ABSTRACT: Given combined efforts of neuroscience and immunology, increasing evidence has revealed the critical roles of the immune system in regulating homeostasis and disorders of the central nervous system (CNS). Microglia have long been considered as the only immune cell type in parenchyma, while at the interface between CNS and the peripheral (meninges, choroid plexus, and perivascular space), embryonically originated border-associated macrophages (BAMs) and multiple surveilling leukocytes capable of migrating into and out of the brain have been identified to function in the healthy brain. Hypoxia-induced neuroinflammation is the key pathological procedure that can be detected in healthy people at high altitude or in various neurodegenerative diseases, during which a very thin line between a beneficial response of the peripheral immune system in maintaining brain homeostasis and a pathological role in exacerbating neuroinflammation has been revealed. Here, we are going to focus on the role of the peripheral immune system and its crosstalk with CNS in the healthy brain and especially in hypobaric or ischemic hypoxia-associated neuroinflammation.

Pinoresinol diglucoside alleviates ischemia/reperfusion-induced brain injury by modulating neuroinflammation and oxidative stress.

Project description:Brain ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a common pathological process after ischemic stroke. Pinoresinol diglucoside (PDG) has antioxidation and anti-inflammation activities. However, whether PDG ameliorates brain I/R injury is still unclear. In this study, middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was established with male C57BL/6 mice, and the mice were treated with 5 and 10 mg/kg PDG via intravenous injection, respectively. The neurological deficit, infarct volume, and brain water content were then evaluated. HE staining and Nissl staining were used to analyze neuron injury. Besides, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and colorimetry assay were used to examine the level of inflammatory markers and oxidative stress markers, and Western blot was used to detect the expressions of p-p65, Nrf2, and HO-1. It was revealed that PDG could significantly alleviate the MCAO-induced neurological dysfunction of the mice and reduce the infarct volume, brain water content, and neuron injury. PDG treatment decreased the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, NO, ROS, and MDA, and significantly increased the activities of SOD, GSH, and GSH-Px in the brain tissue of the mice. Additionally, PDG could repress the activation of p65 and promote Nrf2 and HO-1 expressions. In conclusion, PDG exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidation effects via regulating the NF-κB pathway and Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, thereby reducing the I/R-induced brain injury of mice.

Hypoxia-induced miR-210 modulates tissue response to acute peripheral ischemia.

Project description:AIMS: Peripheral artery disease is caused by the restriction or occlusion of arteries supplying the leg. Better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underpinning tissue response to ischemia is urgently needed to improve therapeutic options. The aim of this study is to investigate hypoxia-induced miR-210 regulation and its role in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia. RESULTS: miR-210 expression was induced by femoral artery dissection. To study the role of miR-210, its function was inhibited by the systemic administration of a miR-210 complementary locked nucleic acid (LNA)-oligonucleotide (anti-miR-210). In the ischemic skeletal muscle, anti-miR-210 caused a marked decrease of miR-210 compared with LNA-scramble control, while miR-210 target expression increased accordingly. Histological evaluation of acute tissue damage showed that miR-210 inhibition increased both apoptosis at 1 day and necrosis at 3 days. Capillary density decrease caused by ischemia was significantly more pronounced in anti-miR-210-treated mice; residual limb perfusion decreased accordingly. To investigate the molecular mechanisms underpinning the increased damage triggered by miR-210 blockade, we tested the impact of anti-miR-210 treatment on the transcriptome. Gene expression analysis highlighted the deregulation of mitochondrial function and redox balance. Accordingly, oxidative damage was more severe in the ischemic limb of anti-miR-210-treated mice and miR-210 inhibition increased oxidative metabolism. Further, oxidative-stress resistant p66(Shc)-null mice displayed decreased tissue damage following ischemia. INNOVATION: This study identifies miR-210 as a crucial element in the adaptive mechanisms to acute peripheral ischemia. CONCLUSIONS: The physiopathological significance of miR-210 is context dependent. In the ischemic skeletal muscle it seems to be cytoprotective, regulating oxidative metabolism and oxidative stress.

?-Opioid Receptors, microRNAs, and Neuroinflammation in Cerebral Ischemia/Hypoxia.

Project description:Hypoxia and ischemia are the main underlying pathogenesis of stroke and other neurological disorders. Cerebral hypoxia and/or ischemia (e.g., stroke) can lead to neuronal injury/death and eventually cause serious neurological disorders or even death in the patients. Despite knowing these serious consequences, there are limited neuroprotective strategies against hypoxic and ischemic insults in clinical settings. Recent studies indicate that microRNAs (miRNAs) are of great importance in regulating cerebral responses to hypoxic/ischemic stress in addition to the neuroprotective effect of the ?-opioid receptor (DOR). Moreover, new discovery shows that DOR can regulate miRNA expression and inhibit inflammatory responses to hypoxia/ischemia. We, therefore, summarize available data in current literature regarding the role of DOR and miRNAs in regulating the neuroinflammatory responses in this article. In particular, we focus on microglia activation, cytokine production, and the relevant signaling pathways triggered by cerebral hypoxia/ischemia. The intent of this review article is to provide a novel clue for developing new strategies against neuroinflammatory injury resulting from cerebral hypoxia/ischemia.

Imatinib ameliorates neuroinflammation in a rat model of multiple sclerosis by enhancing blood-brain barrier integrity and by modulating the peripheral immune response.

Project description:Central nervous system (CNS) disorders such as ischemic stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS) or Alzheimers disease are characterized by the loss of blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity. Here we demonstrate that the small tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib enhances BBB integrity in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, an animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS). Treatment was accompanied by decreased CNS inflammation and demyelination and especially reduced T-cell recruitment. This was supported by downregulation of the chemokine receptor (CCR) 2 in CNS and lymph nodes, and by modulation of the peripheral immune response towards an anti-inflammatory phenotype. Interestingly, imatinib ameliorated neuroinflammation, even when the treatment was initiated after the clinical manifestation of the disease. We have previously shown that imatinib reduces BBB disruption and stroke volume after experimentally induced ischemic stroke by targeting platelet-derived growth factor receptor -? (PDGFR-?) signaling. Here we demonstrate that PDGFR-? signaling is a central regulator of BBB integrity during neuroinflammation and therefore imatinib should be considered as a potentially effective treatment for MS.

Peripheral immune tolerance alleviates the intracranial lipopolysaccharide injection-induced neuroinflammation and protects the dopaminergic neurons from neuroinflammation-related neurotoxicity.

Project description:Neuroinflammation plays a critical role in the onset and development of neurodegeneration disorders such as Parkinson's disease. The immune activities of the central nervous system are profoundly affected by peripheral immune activities. Immune tolerance refers to the unresponsiveness of the immune system to continuous or repeated stimulation to avoid excessive inflammation and unnecessary by-stander injury in the face of continuous antigen threat. It has been proved that the immune tolerance could suppress the development of various peripheral inflammation-related diseases. However, the role of immune tolerance in neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases was not clear.Rats were injected with repeated low-dose lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 0.3 mg/kg) intraperitoneally for 4 days to induce peripheral immune tolerance. Neuroinflammation was produced using intracranial LPS (15 ?g) injection. Inflammation cytokines were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Microglial activation were measured using immunostaining of Iba-1 and ED-1. Dopaminergic neuronal damage was evaluated using immunochemistry staining and stereological counting of TH-positive neurons. Behavioral impairment was evaluated using amphetamine-induced rotational behavioral assessment.Compared with the non-immune tolerated animals, pre-treatment of peripheral immune tolerance significantly decreased the production of inflammatory cytokines, suppressed the microglial activation, and increased the number of dopaminergic neuronal survival in the substantia nigra.Our results indicated that peripheral immune tolerance attenuated neuroinflammation and inhibited neuroinflammation-induced dopaminergic neuronal death.

Modulating the immune system through nanotechnology.

Project description:Nowadays, nanotechnology-based modulation of the immune system is presented as a cutting-edge strategy, which may lead to significant improvements in the treatment of severe diseases. In particular, efforts have been focused on the development of nanotechnology-based vaccines, which could be used for immunization or generation of tolerance. In this review, we highlight how different immune responses can be elicited by tuning nanosystems properties. In addition, we discuss specific formulation approaches designed for the development of anti-infectious and anti-autoimmune vaccines, as well as those intended to prevent the formation of antibodies against biologicals.

Dasatinib for Modulating Immune System After Autologous Stem Cell Transplants for Multiple Myeloma, Non-Hodgkin, or Hodgkin Lymphoma

Project description:This study uses a drug called dasatinib to produce an anti-cancer effect called large granular lymphocyte cellular expansion. Large granular lymphocytes are blood cells known as natural killer cells that remove cancer cells. Researchers think that dasatinib may cause large granular lymphocyte expansion to happen in patients who have received a blood stem cell transplant (SCT) between 3 to 15 months after the blood SCT. In this research study, researchers want to find how well dasatinib can be tolerated, the best dose to take of dasatinib and to estimate how often large granular lymphocytic cellular expansion happens at the best dose of dasatinib.

Hypoxia-induced miR-210 modulates gene expression in response to acute peripheral ischemia.

Project description:Peripheral Artery Disease is caused by the restriction or occlusion of arteries supplying the leg. Better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underpinning tissue response to acute and chronic ischemia is urgently needed to improve therapeutic options. The aim of this study is understanding miR-210 regulation and role in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia. To investigate miR-210 function, mice were injected with a miR-210 complementary LNA-oligonucleotide (anti-miR-210). Then, the left femoral artery was dissected in order to induce unilateral hindlimb ischemia. Mice were sacrified 3 days later and gene expression profiles of gastrocnemius muscles were obatained.

Exaggerated neuroinflammation and sickness behavior in aged mice after activation of the peripheral innate immune system

Project description:Acute cognitive impairment (i.e., delirium) is common in elderly emergency department patients and frequently results from infections that are unrelated to the central nervous system. Since activation of the peripheral innate immune system induces brain microglia to produce inflammatory cytokines that are responsible for behavioral deficits, we investigated if aging exacerbated neuroinflammation and sickness behavior after peripheral injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Microarray analysis revealed a transcriptional profile indicating the presence of primed or activated microglia and increased inflammation in the aged brain. Furthermore, aged mice had a unique gene expression profile in the brain after an intraperitoneal injection of LPS, and the LPS-induced elevation in the brain inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress was both exaggerated and prolonged compared with adults. Aged mice were anorectic longer and lost more weight than adults after peripheral LPS administration. Moreover, reductions in both locomotor and social behavior remained 24 h later in aged mice, when adults had fully recovered, and the exaggerated neuroinflammatory response in aged mice was not reliably paralleled by increased circulating cytokines in the periphery. Taken together, these data establish that activation of the peripheral innate immune system leads to exacerbated neuroinflammation in the aged as compared with adult mice. This dysregulated link between the peripheral and central innate immune system is likely to be involved in the severe behavioral deficits that frequently occur in older adults with systemic infections.
