Therapeutic window of globular adiponectin against cerebral ischemia in diabetic mice: the role of dynamic alteration of adiponectin/adiponectin receptor expression.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have demonstrated that adiponectin (APN) attenuates cerebral ischemic/reperfusion via globular adiponectin (gAD). However, the therapeutic role of gAD in cerebral ischemic injury in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) remains unclear. Our results showed that gAD improved neurological scores and reduced the infarct volumes in the 8-week T1DM (T1DM-8W) mice, but not in the 2-week T1DM (T1DM-2W) mice. Moreover, the ischemic penumbra APN levels increased and peaked in T1DM-2W mice, and reduced to normal in T1DM-8W mice, while the APN receptor 1 (AdipoR1) expression change was the opposite. Administration of rosiglitazone in T1DM-2W mice up-regulated the expression of AdipoR1 and restored the neuroprotection of gAD, while intracerebroventricular injection of AdipoR1 small interfering RNA (siRNA) in T1DM-8W mice reversed it. Furthermore, the expression of p-PERK, p-IRE1 and GRP78 were increased whereas the expressions of CHOP and cleaved caspase-12 as well as the number of apoptotic neurons were decreased after gAD treatment in T1DM-8W mice. These beneficial effects of gAD were reversed by pretreatment with AdipoR1 siRNA. These results demonstrated a dynamic dysfunction of APN/AdipoR1 accompanying T1DM progression. Interventions bolstering AdipoR1 expression during early stages and gAD supplementation during advanced stages may potentially reduce the cerebral ischemic injury in diabetic patients.

Project description:Free radicals have been implicated in cerebral ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury. Massive production of nitric oxide and superoxide results in continuous formation of peroxynitrite even several hours after IR insult. This can produce DNA strand nicks, hydroxylation and/or nitration of cytosolic components of neuron, leading to neuronal death. Peroxynitrite decomposition catalysts 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(N-methyl-4'-pyridyl)porphyrinato iron (III) (FeTMPyP) and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrinato iron (III) (FeTPPS) have been demonstrated to protect neurons in in vitro cultures; however, their neuroprotective efficacy in cerebral IR injury has not been explored. In the present study, we investigated the efficacy and the therapeutic time window of FeTMPyP and FeTPPS in focal cerebral ischemia (FCI). FCI was induced according to the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) method. After 2 h of MCAO and 70 h of reperfusion, the extent of neurological deficits, infarct and edema volume were measured in Sprague-Dawley rats. FeTMPyP and FeTPPS were administered at different time points 2, 6, 9 and 12 h post MCAO. FeTMPyP and FeTPPS (3 mg kg(-1), i.v.) treatment at 2 and 6 h post MCAO produced significant reduction in infarct volume, edema volume and neurological deficits. However, treatment at latter time points did not produce significant neuroprotection. Significant reduction of peroxynitrite in blood and nitrotyrosine in brain sections was observed on FeTMPyP and FeTPPS treatment. As delayed treatment of FeTMPyP and FeTPPS produced neuroprotection, we tested whether treatment had any influence over the apoptotic neuronal death. DNA fragmentation and in situ nick end-labeling assays showed that FeTMPyP and FeTPPS treatment reduced IR injury-induced DNA fragmentation. In conclusion, peroxynitrite decomposition catalysts (FeTMPyP and FeTPPS) produced prominent neuroprotection even if administered 6 h post MCAO and the neuroprotective effect is at least in part due to the reduction of peroxynitrite and apoptosis.
