Project description:Ischemic stroke is a major threat to public health. Microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is a double-edged sword for neuronal survival after stroke. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (Trem2) is specifically expressed on the surface of myeloid cell, including microglia. Here, we applied a photothrombotic mouse model of stroke to better understand the role of Trem2 in post-stroke neuroinflammation. In this model, Trem2 was sufficiently induced with sustainably elevated inflammatory responses. Our results demonstrated that Trem2-depletion can ameliorate ischemic injury with enhanced neuronal survival, reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine levels, and improved neurological functions. Our results suggested that Trem2 depletion is neuroprotective during ischemic stroke.

Project description:Neuroinflammation is a hallmark of ischemic stroke, which is a leading cause of death and longterm disability. Understanding the exact cellular signaling pathways that initiate and propagate neuroinflammation after stroke will be critical for developing immunomodulatory stroke therapies. In particular, the precise mechanisms of inflammatory signaling in the clinically relevant hyperacute period, hours after stroke, have not been elucidated. We used the RiboTag technique to obtain Astrocyte IP and microglia-derived mRNA transcripts in a hyperacute (4 hours) and acute (3 days) period after stroke, as these two cell types are key modulators of acute neuroinflammation. Microglia initiated a rapid response to stroke at 4 hours by adopting an inflammatory profile associated with the recruitment of immune cells. The hyperacute Astrocyte IP profile was marked by stress response genes and transcription factors, such as Fos and Jun, involved in pro-inflammatory pathways such as TNF-α. By 3 days, microglia shift to a proliferative state and Astrocyte IPs strengthen their inflammatory response. The Astrocyte IP pro-inflammatory response at 3 days is partially driven by the upregulation of the transcription factors C/EBPβ, Spi1, and Rel, which comprise 25% of upregulated transcription factor-target interactions. Surprisingly, few sex differences across all groups were observed. Expression and log2 fold data for all sequenced genes are available on a user-friendly website for researchers to examine gene changes and generate hypotheses for stroke targets. Taken together our data comprehensively describe the Astrocyte IP and microglia-specific translatome response in the hyperacute and acute period after stroke and identify pathways critical for initiating neuroinflammation.

Project description:Previous research has suggested the potential of esketamine in alleviating post-stroke neuroinflammation, yet the underlying mechanism remained elusive. In our research, we have observed that esketamine increased the number of M2 anti-inflammatory phenotype microglia in the infarcted area after stroke, and this phenomenon is partly associated with the suppression of Panx1. Further research revealed that esketamine suppresses the phosphorylation of sarcoma kinase (Src) at the tyrosine 416 (Y416) site and inhibits the interaction between Src and Panx1, ultimately suppressing the function of Panx1. However, we found esketamine's inhibitory effect on post-stroke Panx1 activation is the underlying mechanism driving the increase in unactivated microglia, yet esketamine's influence on microglial polarization is mediated through a mechanism independent of Panx1.Our research suggests that esketamine, as a drug already used in clinical anesthesia, could potentially provide a solution during the periprocedural period to mitigate the damage caused by aseptic inflammation post-stroke.

Project description:VDR deficiency in microglia markedly aggravated infarct volumes, neurological deficits, and neuroinflammation after cerebral ischemia. To investigate the role of VDR in microglia-regulated neuroinflammation, we performed RNA-seq analysis on microglia isolated from poststroke microglia-conditional VDR knockout (Vdr-cKO) mice and littermate controls. VDR elimination dramatically alters the gene expression profiles of postischemic microglia, implying that vitamin D signaling play a crucial role in microglia-modulated stroke pathogenesis.

Project description:Excessive and unresolved neuroinflammation is part of the pathological cascade in brain injuries such as acute ischemia, as well as neurodegenerative diseases, including multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease. Particularly, timely resolution of inflammation is critical for the recovery and repair after brain injury. The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling plays a central role in neuroinflammation through transcriptional induction of proinflammatory genes. Here, we report that TRIM9, a brain-specific member of the TRIpartite motif (TRIM) family with ubiquitin E3 ligase activity, is upregulated in the peri-infarct cortical areas of mouse brain upon ischemic stroke, and governs the resolution of NF-κB-mediated neuroinflammation. Mechanistically, neuronal TRIM9 sequestered β-TrCP, a component of the Skp-Cullin-F-box (SCF) E3 ligase complex, from ubiquitinating IκBα, thereby mitigating NF-κB-dependent inflammatory responses including production of proinflammatory mediators and infiltration of immune cells. Consequently, Trim9 deficient mice were highly vulnerable to ischemia, manifesting uncontrolled neuroinflammation and exacerbated neuropathological and neurological outcomes. Systemic administration of recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV)-PHP.B, allowing brain-wide enriched TRIM9 expression, effectively resolved neuroinflammation and alleviated neuronal death in aging mice. This reveals that TRIM9 is essential for fine tuning of NF-κB-dependent neuroinflammation, and TRIM9-potentiation based therapy may offer a new approach for the treatment of stroke and inflammation-related neurological disorders.

Project description:Microglia/macrophages (Mi/MΦ) can profoundly influence stroke outcomes by acquiring functionally dominant phenotypes (pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory; neurotoxic or neuroprotective). Identification of the molecular mechanisms that dictate the functional status of Mi/MΦ after brain ischemia/reperfusion may reveal novel therapeutic targets for stroke. We hypothesized that activation of TGFβ-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), a key MAP3K upstream of multiple inflammation-regulating pathways, drives Mi/MΦ towards a pro-inflammatory phenotype and potentiates ischemia/reperfusion brain injury. Young adult mice were subjected to 1 h of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) followed by reperfusion. TAK1 was targeted by tamoxifen-induced Mi/MΦ-specific knockout (mKO). Mi/MΦ functional status and brain inflammatory profiles were assessed 3 days after MCAO by RNA-seq of flow cytometry-sorted brain Mi/MΦ. The results showed that TAK1 promotes ischemia/reperfusion-induced inflammation, brain injury, and maladaptive behavior by enhancing pro-inflammatory and neurotoxic Mi/MΦ responses.

Project description:Microglia are resident myeloid cells in the central nervous system (CNS) that regulate homeostasis and protect CNS from damage and infection. The phenotype of microglia is critical in regulating the propagation and resolution of inflammatory responses after ischemic stroke. However, little is known of its complexity and heterogeneity in the above context. Here, using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of over 11,000 cells from the mice ischemic brain tissues, we demonstrated a previously undefined molecular heterogeneity among microglia clusters following ischemic stroke.

Project description:Immune responses and neuroinflammation occurring after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) are closely related to brain injury. Histone lactylation is a metabolic stress-related histone modification that participates in the pathogenesis of various diseases. However, the role of histone regulation in cerebral ischemic stroke remains unknown. In this study, a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO/R) model and an oxygen–glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) model were used to simulate in vivo/in vitro ischemia–reperfusion injury. The underlying mechanism of microglial histone lactylation was investigated using microglia-specific SMEK1-overexpressing mice and BV2 cells. The results showed that lactate overload resulted in elevated histone lactylation after AIS. Decreased SMEK1 expression in microglia after ischemic stroke was associated with increased lactate levels and subsequent neuroinflammation. Microglia-specific SMEK1 deficiency in microglia after ischemia can promote lactate production by inhibiting the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 3-pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDK3-PDH) pathway. Specifically, H3 lysine 9 lactylation (H3K9la) activated Ldha and Hif-1α transcription in microglia and promoted glycolysis. SMEK1-overexpressing mice exhibited better neurologic recovery after ischemic stroke than control mice. Mechanistically, we provided new evidence that microglial histone lactylation promoted glycolysis in ischemia‒reperfusion injury and elucidated the potential role of SMEK1 as an upstream regulatory molecule in histone lactylation after cerebral ischemia. According to our results, microglial SMEK1 may be potential therapeutic targets for AIS.

Project description:The rapid accumulation of self-renewed polarized microglia in the penumbra is the critical neuroinflammatory process after the onset of ischemic stroke, leading to secondary demyelination and neuronal loss. HDAC3 has been reported to regulate cell proliferation of tumour cells and modulate neuroinflammation. However, the mechanism by which HDAC3 regulates microgliosis and microglial polarization remains ambiguous. Herein, we demonstrated that microglia-specific ablation of HDAC3 (HDAC3-miKO) ameliorated poststroke long-term functional and histological outcomes. Starting with unbiased RNA seq of microglia, we identified mitosis as the most significant process reversed by loss of HDAC3. Notably, HDAC3-miKO specifically inhibited the proliferation of M1-like microglia but not M2-like microglia, resulting in microglial transition to an M1-like state. Moreover, ATAC-seq (Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing) revealed that HDAC3 deletion induced drastic closing of accessible regions enriched with motifs for PU.1. Taken together, we uncovered for the first time that HDAC3/PU.1-mediated differential proliferation-related reprogramming in different microglia populations drives poststroke inflammatory state transition of microglia and thereby contributes to the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke.
