Cranial photo-immunologic regulation along the skull-meninges-brain axis for promoting recovery from ischemic brain injury

ABSTRACT: Stroke involves in the interaction between central and peripheral immune systems. Skull bone marrows serve as reservoirs for immune cells in brain borders, and can rapidly respond to perturbations in the brain environment. Hence, targeting the skull bone marrow to modulate neuroimmune communications along the calvaria-meninges-brain axis would potentially improve stroke prognosis. Here, we successfully achieved cranial immunomodulation via ultraviolet (UV) irradiation of the interparietal region, which was characterized by rich marrow cavities and channels connecting the skull and meninges. Utilizing the recently-developed long-term clearing cranial window that ensured the integrity of skull, we discovered that the cranial photo-immunologic regulation (CPR) could promote cerebrovascular regeneration and aid in neurovascular repair post ischemic stroke. Single-cell transcriptome analysis revealed that meninge could be a crucial neuroimmune interface for ischemic stroke-induced immune responses. And, CPR could restore the stroke-induced alterations in cellular gene expression, especially meningeal B cells. Further we demonstrated that CPR could effectively alleviate the excessive suppression of meningeal B cell activation caused by ischemic stroke. This work opens avenues for immunoregulation through the skull-meninges-brain axis and provides valuable insights for immunomodulatory therapies in brain diseases.

Project description:Background: Previous study showed that stroke may be a potential first sign of neoplasia. But the relationship between them remains unclear. Besides, ischemic stroke is a complex brain disease, which involves cell death or complex immune regulation. Thus, it is necessary to reveal the association of tumor immune microenvironment and cell death with ischemic stroke. Methods: Here, a photothrombosis-induced ischemic injury models of brain and skull was established. We compared and analyzed the pattern of gene expression profile between brain and skull after ischemic injury by transcriptome analysis. Further, we investigated the enrichment of relevant differential genes in cancer pathways and cell death pathways, and analyzed changes in the immune microenvironment after ischemic injury. Moreover, the pan-cancer genomic and prognosis analysis of ischemic injury related gene set were performed. Results: The results showed that the gene expression patterns were different in temporal and spatial locations after ischemic injury. We found that the effect on the transcriptome of the brain after skull ischemic injury was particularly large, but it could be recovered in a short period, while the effect on the skull after brain ischemic injury was long-lasting. The expression of genes related to ischemic injury is also associated with cell death and cancer hallmark pathways. In addition, changes in the abundance of immune cells indicate that brain ischemic injury may disrupt its immune microenvironment for a longer time, while skull can better balance the stability of immune microenvironment. Moreover, the brain ischemic injury-related gene sets are highly correlated with a variety of tumors, especially GBM, KIRC, LGG and UVM after stroke have a greater risk of death. Conclusion: This study gives us a new understanding of the role of the skull in brain ischemic injury, and reveals the association of tumor immune microenvironment and cell death with ischemic stroke.
