Project description:We report an infantile case of midline ‘supratentorial ependymoma ZFTA fusion-positive’ involving both the infra- and the supra-tentorial compartments (i.e., cerebellar vermis, pons and midbrain). The radiological features, i.e., the upward displacement and compression of the supratentorial anatomical structures and the infiltrative margins of the tumour towards the cerebellar vermis, suggested an infratentorial origin of the lesion with secondary involvement of the supratentorial compartment. This case adds to the limited literature of non-hemispheric ‘supratentorial ependymoma ZFTA fusion-positive’ occurring in midline structures, both supratentorial (pineal region, thalamus) and infratentorial (cervico-medullary region and spinal cord), and in the cerebellum. These cases highlight the need to consider this entity in the differential diagnosis of paediatric non-hemispheric lesions and raise the question of whether the inclusion of the location within the WHO definition of this tumour type may be too restrictive

Project description:Traumatic brain injury is known to cause proliferation and migration of astrocytic and neuronal cells. To find out whether irradiation may influence migration of intracranial tumors, we performed expression profiling of orthotopically implanted glioblastomas following irradiation to the contralateral (non-diseased) hemisphere. Microarrays were used to identify differentially expressed genes associated with glioblastoma-malignancy in distinct tumor compartments following irradiation of brain tissue of contralateral (non-diseased) hemisphere. Differentially expressed genes were the object to functional network analysis with Ingenuity pathway analysis software

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify the transcriptomic response 6 hours after the MRT irradiation, in normal brain tissue (11 samples) and in glioma tissue (11 samples), in rat. The orthotopic tumor-bearing rats were either treated with MRT radiation (six MRT-tumors), or untreated (five No irradiated tumors). The contralateral half hemisphere without tumor received the MRT treatment for six rats (6 MRT-Contralateral samples) and no irradiation for five rats (5 Untreated contralateral samples). Six hours after treatment, the tumors and their controlateral regions were resected and analysed for transcriptomic response.

Project description:Carotid artery disease is frequent and can result in chronic modest hypoperfusion of the brain causing cognitive impairments even if classified asymptomatic without a transient ischemic attack or stroke. Paracrine Interleukin 6 (IL 6) improves functional outcome after stroke. However, in carotid artery disease it might have adverse long-term effects. With this exploratory study, we investigated the effect of paracrine IL 6 on cerebral remodeling in early stages after asymptomatic carotid artery occlusion. Therewith we aimed to distinguish IL 6 dependent targets with beneficial effects for long-term outcome from factors causing the detrimental long-term effects of IL 6. To mimic a human asymptomatic carotid artery disease, we used a mouse model of unilateral common carotid artery (CCA) occlusion. We developed a mouse model for inducible paracrine cerebral IL 6 expression (Cx30-Cre-ERT2;FLEX IL6) and induced IL 6 two days after CCA occlusion. We studied the effects of paracrine IL 6 after CCA occlusion on neuronal connectivity using diffusion tensor imaging and on local proteome regulations of the hypo-perfused striatum and contralateral motor cortex using mass spectrometry of laser capture micro-dissected tissues. Paracrine IL-6 induced cerebral remodeling leading to increased inter-hemispheric connectivity and changes in motor system connectivity. We identified changes in local protein abundance which might have adverse effects on functional outcome such as upregulation of Synuclein gamma (Sncg) or downregulation of Proline Dehydrogenase 1 (Prodh). However, we also identified changes in local protein abundance having potentially beneficial effects such as upregulation of Caprin1 or downregulation of GABA transporter 1 (Gat1).

Project description:Our group has been systematically investigating effects of the neuropeptide pituitary adenylate-cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) on the ischemic brain. To do so, we have established and utilizing the permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (PMCAO) mouse model, where PACAP38 (1 pmol) injection is given intracerebroventrically in comparison to a control saline (0.9% NaCl) injection, in conjunction with high-throughput DNA microarray analysis. In previous studies, we have accumulated a large volume of data (gene inventory) from the whole brain (ipsilateral and contralateral hemispheres) by this approach. In our latest research, we have targeted specifically infract/ischemic core (hereafter IC) and the penumbra (hereafter P) post-PACA38 injection, for re-examining the transcriptome at 6 and 24 h post-treatment. The aim of the current study is simple M-bM-^@M-^S to delineate the specificity of expression and localization of differentially expressed molecular factors influenced by PACAP38. Prior to this highly expensive and time-consuming omic analysis, we checked the validity of our hypothesis and experimental strategy wherein, ischemic core and penumbra were carefully sampled and compared to the corresponding contralateral (healthy) IC and P regions at 6 and 24 h, post PACAP38 or saline injections to reveal expected differences in gene and protein expression by traditional reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot analyses, respectively (Hori et al., 2014). Our present results using the mouse 4x44K whole genome DNA chip reveal numerous changes (M-bM-^IM-'/M-bM-^IM-& 1.5/0.75-fold) at both 6 h (654 and 456, and 522 and 449 up- and down-regulated genes for IC and P, respectively; and 24 h (2568 and 2684, and 1947 and 1592 up- and down-regulated genes for IC and P, respectively) after PACAP38 treatment. Using bioinformatics analysis by pathway- or specific-disease-state focused gene classifications and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), these genes were functionally classified and discussed. Taken together, the DNA microarray analysis provides not only a great resource for further study, but also reinforces the importance of region-specific analyses in genome-wide identification of target molecular factors that might play a role in the neuroprotective function of PACAP38. In the present study, we used three mice each in PMCAO groups for PACAP38 and saline injections, respectively, that exhibited neurological grades G1 and G2 for the subsequent downstream analysis. Six or 24 h post-injection of PACAP38 or saline, the mice were removed from their cages, decapitated, and their brains carefully removed on ice. The right (ipsilateral; ischemic) and left (contralateral) hemispheres were dissected, and from each hemisphere the ischemic core and penumbra regions and corresponding healthy core and penumbra were carefully removed with a sterile scalpel, and placed in 2 ml Eppendorf tubes. The samples were then quickly immersed in liquid nitrogen and stored in -80 M-BM-:C prior to further analysis. Effect of the intracerebroventricular PACAP38 administration into ischemic mouse brain was evaluated at the molecular level in the ischemic core and penumbra of ipsilateral (right) hemisphere over the saline injection by whole genome DNA microarray analysis (4x44K, Agilent).

Project description:Differential gene expression comparison between cortex of placebo and PSD-95 inhibitor (Tat-NR2B9c), treated cynomolgus macaques at 1 and 6 hours after middle cerebral artery occlusion. The purpose of this study was to identify changes in differential gene expression in the cortex of animals receiving strokes across the two time points and bewtwee the two treatment groups. Differential gene expression was defined as the ratio of fluroescene detected for expressed sequence tags in the left, unoperated cortex versus the contralateral, right, ischemic cortex at each time point. Two colour, Agilent, 4x44k whole genome macaca mulata microarrays with sample rna hybridized to Cy5 channel and universal macaca mulatta rna control on the Cy3 channel were obtained for each hemisphere. Comparisons between treatment groups at each time point and within in each treatment group across each time point were made to detect differential gene expression. Significant differential gene expression was defined as greater than 2-fold change and p<0.05 by T-test.

Project description:Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) encephalopathy can lead to severe brain damage and is a common cause of neurological handicaps in adulthood. To elucidate the molecular events occurring in cerebral cortices of mature rats (8 weeks old) after neonatal HI brain insult, we performed comprehensive gene expression and gene network analyses using a DNA microarray system (Agilent 4x44K). A rat model of neonatal HI encephalopathy (Rice model) was obtained by unilateral ligation of the common carotid artery of 7-day-old rats with hypoxia (exposure to 8% oxygen). Due to the HI insult-related breakdown of the ipsilateral hemisphere in the brain, RNAs were prepared from the contralateral cerebral cortices of 8-week-old rats and analyzed by DNA microarray. Biofunctional analysis of differentially regulated genes revealed that many upregulated genes were related to cell death signaling, such as the arachidonic acid cascade. In contrast, many downregulated genes were related to gene expression, reflecting progressive damage by the HI insult, even within the contralateral cerebral hemisphere.

Project description:The blood-brain barier (BBB) function is impaired in several neurological diseases such as stroke. To better study the BBB dysfunction in stroke and to identify novel therapeutic targets, a detailed analysis of the neurovascular unit (NVU) cells that together regulate the BBB function is needed. To this end, we isolated the NVU cells EC, PC, AC, MG post stroke in mice using our newly developed SGD (Spitzer, Guérit, Devraj) method from the same starting material followed by RNA sequencing. Cells were isolated from both healthy appearing contralateral hemisphere and ipsilateral stroke hemisphere post tMCAO (1h occlusion, 23h repurfusion) using the SGD method. Each sample comprised 6 biological replicates with each replicate pooled from 3-4 male C57BL6 adult mouse brains either from contralateral or ipsilateral hemisphere post stroke. Only mice with neurological scores (mNSS) of atleast 8 were included for the NVU cell isolation. Our data showed regulation of several genes post stroke in each of the cell types analyzed with novel candidates that were co-regulated in the NVU cell types. As the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is co-regulated by several NVU cell types, we propose targeting the candidates co-regulated in multiple NVU cell-ytpes for novel and effective therapeutic options in stroke.
