Project description:Introduction: Plasma oxidized human serum albumin (OxHSA) is evidence of an active antioxidant mechanism as measured by oxidized species of HSA. CXCL-10 is a pro-inflammatory chemokine associated with ischemic conditions. Accordingly, we examined the relationship of admission OxHSA and CXCL-10 with discharge mRS in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods: Plasma samples and clinical data were collected prospectively at a Comprehensive Stroke Center. Admission biomarkers of oxidative stress, CXCL-10 and %OxHSA, were measured. We examined if CXCL-10 or %OxHSA correlated with age, admission NIHSS score, and discharge mRS score using Spearman's Rank correlation. Logistic regression was performed to identify independent predictors of a favorable discharge mRS (?2). Results: In 106 consecutive AIS patients, the median age was 73 (IQR 61-84), 47% were male, and the median admission NIHSS score was 11 (IQR 5-19). %OxHSA and CXCL-10 were significantly correlated (r = 0.23, p = 0.02). Both biomarkers were significantly correlated with age: %OxHSA (r = 0.44, p < 0.001) and CXCL-10 (r = 0.32, p = 0.001). Neither biomarker was correlated with admission NIHSS. There was a borderline significant correlation with discharge mRS and %OxHSA (r = -0.17, p = 0.08), where higher %OxHSA correlated with lower discharge mRS scores. For every 1% increase in %OxHSA, the odds of a favorable discharge mRS increased 11%. The odds of a favorable discharge mRS decreased 18% for every 1-point increase in the initial NIHSS. Conclusions: OxHSA, the result of an oxidative environment and evidence of the strong antioxidant buffering capacity of HSA, correlated with CXCL-10 and discharge mRS, implying that strong antioxidant activity of albumin may confer better outcomes.

Project description:This review provides a summary of the protein and RNA biomarkers that have been studied for the diagnosis and assessment of ischemic stroke. Many of the biomarkers identified relate to the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke, including ischemia of CNS tissue, acute thrombosis and inflammatory response. These biomarkers are summarized by their intended clinical application in ischemic stroke including diagnosis, prediction of stroke severity and outcome, and stratification of patients for stroke therapy. Among the biomarkers discussed are recent whole genome studies using RNA expression profiles to diagnose ischemic stroke and stroke etiology. Though many candidate blood based biomarkers for ischemic stroke have been identified, none are currently used in clinical practice. With further well designed study and careful validation, the development of blood biomarkers to improve the care of patients with ischemic stroke may be achieved.

Project description:Background and Purpose: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), encompassing myocardial infarction, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease. We hypothesized that those biomarkers indicative of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) seen in large vessel occlusion (LVO) may also be elevated in T2D and further enhanced by stress conditions; therefore, these proteins represent potentially predictive biomarkers for those T2D patients at high risk of AIS. Methods: We performed an exploratory proteomic analysis in control subjects (n = 23) versus those with type 2 diabetes (T2D) (n = 23) who underwent a hyperinsulinemic clamp study to transient severe hypoglycemia [blood glucose <2.0 mmol/L (36 mg/dl)] in a prospective case-control study. We compared these proteins described as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for AIS due to LVO: lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronic acid receptor-1 (LYVE1), thrombospondin-1 (THBS1), pro-platelet basic protein (PPBP), and cadherin 1 (CDH1). Results: At baseline (BL), PPBP (p < 0.05), THBS1 (p < 0.05), and CDH1 (p < 0.01) were elevated in T2D; LYVE1 was not different between controls and T2D subjects at BL or at subsequent timepoints. PPBP and THBS1 tended to increase at hypoglycemia in both cohorts, though reached significance only in controls (p < 0.05), returning to BL levels post-hypoglycemia. CDH1 levels were higher in T2D at BL, at hypoglycemia and up to 2-h posthypoglycemia, thereafter reverting to BL levels. Conclusion: Elevated levels of PPBP, THBS1, and CDH1, circulatory proteins suggested as biomarkers of AIS due to LVO, may, in T2D patients, be prognostically indicative of a cohort of T2D patients at increased risk of ischaemic stroke. Prospective studies are needed to determine if this reflects future clinical risk. Clinical trial reg. no: NCT03102801.

Project description:Ischemic stroke (IS) is the second leading cause of death worldwide. Multimodal neuroimaging techniques that have significantly facilitated the diagnosis of hyperacute IS are not widely used in underdeveloped areas and community hospitals owing to drawbacks such as high cost and lack of trained operators. Moreover, these methods do not have sufficient resolution to detect changes in the brain at the cellular and molecular levels after IS onset. In contrast, blood-based biomarkers can reflect molecular and biochemical alterations in both normal and pathophysiologic processes including angiogenesis, metabolism, inflammation, oxidative stress, coagulation, thrombosis, glial activation, and neuronal and vascular injury, and can thus provide information complementary to findings from routine examinations and neuroimaging that is useful for diagnosis. In this review, we summarize the current state of knowledge on blood-based biomarkers of hyperacute IS including those associated with neuronal injury, glial activation, inflammation and oxidative stress, vascular injury and angiogenesis, coagulation and thrombosis, and metabolism as well as genetic and genomic biomarkers. Meanwhile, the blood sampling time of the biomarkers which are cited and summarized in the review is within 6 h after the onset of IS. Additionally, we also discuss the diagnostic and prognostic value of blood-based biomarkers in stroke patients, and future directions for their clinical application and development.

Project description:BackgroundSerum albumin to globulin ratio (A/G) has been widely used as a representative biomarker for assessing inflammation and nutrition status. However, in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS), the predictive value of serum A/G has rarely been reported. We aimed to evaluate whether serum A/G is associated with prognosis in stroke.MethodsWe analyzed data from the Third China National Stroke Registry. The patients were categorized into quartile groups according to the serum A/G at admission. Clinical outcomes included poor functional outcomes (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] score of 3-6 or 2-6) and all-cause mortality at 3 months and1 year. Multivariable logistic regressions and Cox proportional hazards regressions were used to evaluate the association of serum A/G with the risk of poor functional outcomes and all-cause mortality.ResultsA total of 11, 298 patients were included in this study. After adjustment for confounding factors, patients in the highest serum A/G quartile had a lower proportion of mRS score 2-6 (odds ratio [OR], 0.87; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.76-1.00) and mRS score 3-6 (OR, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.73-1.03) at 3 months follow-up. At 1 year follow-up, there was a significant association between higher serum A/G and mRS score 3-6 (OR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.57-0.81). We also found that the highest serum A/G was related to decreased risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 0.58; 95% CI, 0.36-0.94) at 3 months follow-up. Similar results were found at 1-year follow-up.ConclusionsLower serum A/G levels were associated with poor functional outcomes and all-cause mortality at 3 months and 1-year follow-up in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Project description:Stroke is a common cause of physical disability. Biomarkers have been used to predict prognosis in ischemic stroke, but studies linking biomarkers to physical recovery from ischemic stroke have not been systematically evaluated since 2011. The purpose of this paper is to report the findings of a systematic review of the intervening literature to identify potential predictive biomarkers for recovery of physical function following ischemic stroke. The PubMed, Embase, and CINAHL databases were searched for studies reported between January 1, 2011, and September 18, 2018. Search criteria were adult ischemic stroke patients, blood sample collection within 24 ± 6 hrs of stroke onset, and outcome measures, including physical function. Identified from 18 studies and representing four biological classifications, 34 biomarkers were significantly associated with physical recovery after ischemic stroke: (1) immune response (15, 44%); (2) lipids/metabolism (4, 12%); (3) neuronal function (4, 12%); and (4) blood vessel/circulation (11, 32%). Of the predictive biomarkers associated with 1-month recovery, 60% (6 of 10) was classified into blood vessel/circulation; 54% (14 of 26) of the biomarkers associated with 3-6 month physical recovery involved the immune response. Blood biomarkers might provide useful information to improve the prediction of physical outcome after ischemic stroke. The data suggest that biomarkers from four biological classifications may predict physical recovery in patients after ischemic stroke.

Project description:Many hospitals lack facilities for accurate diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Circular RNA (circRNA) is highly expressed in the brain and is closely associated with stroke. In this study, we examined whether the blood-borne circRNAs can be promising candidates as adjunctive diagnostic biomarkers and their pathophysiological roles after stroke. We profiled the blood circRNA expression in mice subjected to experimental focal cerebral ischemia, and validated the selected circRNAs in AIS patients. We demonstrated that 128, 198 and 789 circRNAs were significantly altered at 5 min, 3 h and 24 h after ischemic stroke, respectively.

Project description:Background: There is growing interest in the use of new biomarkers such as glycated albumin (GA), but data are limited in acute ischemic stroke. We explored the impact of GA on short-term functional outcomes as measured using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 3 months compared to glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Methods: A total of 1163 AIS patients from two hospitals between 2016 and 2019 were included. Patients were divided into two groups according to GA levels (GA < 16% versus GA ≥ 16%). Results: A total of 518 patients (44.5%) were included in the GA ≥ 16% group. After adjusting for multiple covariates, the higher GA group (GA ≥ 16%) had a 1.4-fold risk of having unfavorable mRS (95% CI 1.02-1.847). However, HbA1c was not significantly associated with 3-month mRS. In addition, GA ≥ 16% was independently associated with unfavorable short-term outcomes only in patients without diabetes. Conclusions: In light of these results, GA level might be a novel prognostic biomarker compared to HbA1c for short-term stroke outcome. Although the impact of GA is undervalued in the current stroke guidelines, GA monitoring should be considered in addition to HbA1c monitoring.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with cancer and acute ischemic stroke (AIS) face high rates of recurrent thromboembolism or death.ObjectivesTo examine whether hematologic and embolic biomarkers soon after AIS are associated with subsequent adverse clinical outcomes.MethodsWe prospectively enrolled 50 adults with active solid tumor cancer and AIS at two hospitals from 2016 to 2020. Blood was collected 72-120 h after stroke onset. A 30-min transcranial Doppler (TCD) microemboli detection study was performed. The exposure variables were hematologic markers of coagulation (D-dimer, thrombin-antithrombin), platelet (P-selectin), and endothelial activation (thrombomodulin, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 [sICAM-1], soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 [sVCAM-1]), and the presence of TCD microemboli. The primary outcome was a composite of recurrent arterial/venous thromboembolism or death. We used Cox regression to evaluate associations between biomarkers and subsequent outcomes.ResultsDuring an estimated median follow-up time of 48 days (IQR, 18-312), 43 (86%) participants developed recurrent thromboembolism or death, including 28 (56%) with recurrent thromboembolism, of which 13 were recurrent AIS (26%). In unadjusted analysis, D-dimer (HR 1.6; 95% CI 1.2-2.0), P-selectin (HR 1.9; 95% CI 1.4-2.7), sICAM-1 (HR 2.2; 95% CI 1.6-3.1), sVCAM-1 (HR 1.6; 95% CI 1.2-2.1), and microemboli (HR 2.2; 95% CI 1.1-4.5) were associated with the primary outcome, whereas thrombin-antithrombin and thrombomodulin were not. D-dimer was the only marker associated with recurrent AIS (HR 1.2; 95% CI 1.0-1.5). Results were generally consistent in analyses adjusted for important prognostic variables.ConclusionsMarkers of hypercoagulability and embolic disease may be associated with adverse clinical outcomes in cancer-related stroke.

Project description:Many hospitals lack facilities for accurate diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Circular RNA (circRNA) is highly expressed in the brain and is closely associated with stroke. In this study, we examined whether the blood-borne circRNAs could be promising candidates as adjunctive diagnostic biomarkers and their pathophysiological roles after stroke. We profiled the blood circRNA expression in mice subjected to experimental focal cerebral ischemia and validated the selected circRNAs in AIS patients. We demonstrated that 128, 198, and 789 circRNAs were significantly altered at 5 min, 3 h, and 24 h after ischemic stroke, respectively. Our bioinformatics analysis revealed that the circRNA-targeted genes were associated with the Hippo signaling pathway, extracellular matrix-receptor interaction, and fatty acid metabolism at 5 min, 3 h and 24 h after ischemic stroke, respectively. We verified that many of these circRNAs existed in the mouse brain. Furthermore, we found that most of the predicted circRNA-miRNA interactions apparently exhibited functional roles in terms of regulation of their target gene expression in the brain. We also verified that many of these mouse circRNAs were conserved in human. Finally, we found that circBBS2 and circPHKA2 were differentially expressed in the blood of AIS patients. These results demonstrate that blood circRNAs may serve as potential biomarkers for AIS diagnosis and reveal the pathophysiological responses in the brain after ischemic stroke.
