Blood biomarkers of ischemic stroke.

ABSTRACT: 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.

Blood-Based Biomarkers: A Forgotten Friend of Hyperacute Ischemic Stroke.

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.

Blood biomarkers for physical recovery in ischemic stroke: a systematic review.

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.

Identification of Blood Circular RNAs as Potential Biomarkers for Acute 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 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.

Blood Biomarkers of Parenchymal Damage in Ischemic Stroke Patients Treated With Revascularization Therapies.

Project description:PurposePostischemic reperfusion injury may exacerbate cerebral damage and capillary dysfunction, leading to brain edema (BE), hemorrhagic transformation (HT), necrosis, and injury from free radicals with subsequent infarct growth (IG). Several plasmatic biomarkers involved in the ischemic cascade have been studied in relation to radiological and clinical outcomes of reperfusion injury in ischemic stroke with heterogeneous results. This article provides a brief overview of the contribution of circulating biomarkers to the pathophysiology of parenchymal damage in ischemic stroke patients treated with revascularization therapies.MethodsWe included full reports with measurements of plasma markers in patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with revascularization therapies.FindingsOur research included a large number of observational studies investigating a possible role of circulating biomarkers in the development of parenchymal damage after acute stroke treatments. To make the results clearer, we divided the review in 4 sections, exploring the relation of different biomarkers with each of the indicators of parenchymal damage (HT, BE, IG, recanalization).Discussion and conclusionDefinite conclusions are difficult to draw because of heterogeneity across studies. However, our review seems to confirm an association between some circulating biomarkers (particularly matrix metalloproteinase-9) and occurrence of parenchymal damage in ischemic stroke patients treated with revascularization therapies.

Blood genomic expression profile for ischemic stroke (IS)

Project description:Stroke is a “brain attack” cutting off vital blood, and consequently the nutrients and oxygen vital to the brain cells that control everything we do. Stroke is a complex disease with unclear pathogenesis resulting from environmental and genetic factors. To better understand IS´s etiology, we performed genomic expression profiling of patients and controls. Gene expression profiling was performed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 20 IS patients and 20 sex- and age-matched controls using Affymetrix microarrays.

Blood-based protein biomarkers during the acute ischemic stroke treatment window: a systematic review.

Project description:Rapid and accurate acute ischemic stroke (AIS) diagnosis is needed to expedite emergent thrombolytic and mechanical thrombectomy treatment. Changes in blood-based protein biomarkers during the first 24 h of AIS, the time window for treatment, could complement imaging techniques and facilitate rapid diagnosis and treatment. We performed a systematic review according to PRISMA guidelines. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched for eligible studies comparing levels of blood-based protein biomarkers in AIS patients with levels in healthy controls and stroke mimics. Protein biomarkers from the following pathophysiological categories were included: neurovascular inflammation (MMP-9, TNF-alpha), endothelial integrity (VCAM-1, ICAM-1), cell migration (E-Selectin, P-Selectin, L-Selectin), markers of glial and neuronal origin (GFAP, S100, S100B, NSE), and cardiac dysfunction (BNP, NT-proBNP). The literature search was limited to English-language publications before November 7th, 2023. A total of 61 studies from 20 different countries were identified, which included in total, 4,644 AIS patients, 2,242 stroke mimics, and 2,777 controls. Studies investigating TNF-alpha, MMP-9, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, E-Selectin, L-Selectin, GFAP, NSE, and S100B showed pronounced methodological heterogeneity, making between-study comparisons difficult. However, in 80% of NT-proBNP and BNP studies, and all P-selectin studies, higher biomarker levels were observed in AIS patients compared to healthy controls and/or patients with stroke mimics. None of the biomarkers included showed sufficient evidence for additional diagnostic benefit for AIS. Comprehensive standardized global multicenter studies are needed to (1) permit comparability, (2) enable valid statements about protein-based biomarkers, and (3) reflect real-world scenarios.

Oxidized Albumin and Cartilage Acidic Protein-1 as Blood Biomarkers to Predict Ischemic Stroke Outcomes.

Project description:Background: There is high demand for blood biomarkers that reflect the therapeutic response or predict the outcomes of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS); however, few biomarkers have been evidentially verified to date. This study evaluated two proteins, oxidized albumin (OxHSA) and cartilage acidic protein-1 (CRTAC1), as potential prognostic markers of AIS. Methods: The ratio of OxHSA to normal albumin (%OxHSA) and the level of CRTAC1 in the sera of 74 AIS patients were analyzed on admission (day 0), and at 1 and 7 days after admission. AIS patients were divided into two groups according to their modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 3 months after discharge: the low-mRS (mRS < 2) group included 48 patients and the high-mRS (mRS ≥ 2) group included 26 patients. The differences in %OxHSA and CRTAC1 between the two groups on days 0, 1, and 7 were evaluated. Results: The mean %OxHSA values of the high-mRS group on days 0, 1, and 7 were significantly higher than those of the low-mRS group (p < 0.05). The CRTAC1 levels continuously increased from day 0 to day 7, and those of the high-mRS group were significantly higher than those of the low-mRS group on day 7 (p < 0.05). Conclusions: These results suggest that higher %OxHSA and CRTAC1 are associated with poor outcomes in AIS patients. An index that combines %OxHSA and CRTAC1 can accurately predict the outcomes of AIS patients.

A Mouse Brain-based Multi-omics Integrative Approach Reveals Potential Blood Biomarkers for Ischemic Stroke.

Project description:Stroke remains a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Despite continuous advances, the identification of key molecular signatures in the hyper-acute phase of ischemic stroke is still a primary interest for translational research on stroke diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Data integration from high-throughput -omics techniques has become crucial to unraveling key interactions among different molecular elements in complex biological contexts, such as ischemic stroke. Thus, we used advanced data integration methods for a multi-level joint analysis of transcriptomics and proteomics data sets obtained from mouse brains at 2 h after cerebral ischemia. By modeling net-like correlation structures, we identified an integrated network of genes and proteins that are differentially expressed at a very early stage after stroke. We validated 10 of these deregulated elements in acute stroke, and changes in their expression pattern over time after cerebral ischemia were described. Of these, CLDN20, GADD45G, RGS2, BAG5, and CTNND2 were next evaluated as blood biomarkers of cerebral ischemia in mice and human blood samples, which were obtained from stroke patients and patients presenting stroke-mimicking conditions. Our findings indicate that CTNND2 levels in blood might potentially be useful for distinguishing ischemic strokes from stroke-mimicking conditions in the hyper-acute phase of the disease. Furthermore, circulating GADD45G content within the first 6 h after stroke could also play a key role in predicting poor outcomes in stroke patients. For the first time, we have used an integrative biostatistical approach to elucidate key molecules in the initial stages of stroke pathophysiology and highlight new notable molecules that might be further considered as blood biomarkers of ischemic stroke.
