Project description:Dysregulated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to contribute to the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. However, the potential role of lncRNAs in post-stroke microglial reactivation remains largely unknown. Here, we uncovered that lncRNA-U90926 was significantly increased in the microglia exposed to ischemia/reperfusion in vivo and in vitro. In addition, adenovirus associated virus (AAV)-mediated microglial U90926 silencing alleviated neurological deficits and reduced infarct volume in experimental stroke mice. Microglial U90926 knockdown could reduce the infiltration of neutrophils into ischemic lesion site, which might be attributed to the downregulation of C-X-C motif ligand 2 (CXCL2). Mechanistically, U90926 directly bound to malate dehydrogenase (MDH2) and competitively inhibited MDH2-mediated decay of CXCL2 mRNA. Taken together, our study demonstrated that microglial U90926 aggravated ischemic brain injury via facilitating neutrophil infiltration, suggesting that U90926 might be a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for ischemic stroke.

Project description:The current treatment options for ischemic stroke aim to achieve reperfusion but are time critical. Novel therapeutic approaches that can be given beyond the limited time window of 3 - 4.5 hours are still an unmet need to be addressed to improve stroke outcome. The lack of oxygen and glucose in the area of ischemic injury initiates a pathological cascade leading to blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, inflammation and neuronal cell death, a process that may be intercepted to limit stroke progression. Pericytes located at the blood/brain interface are one of the first responders to hypoxia in stroke and therefore a potential target cell for early stroke interventions. Using single-cell RNA sequencing in a mouse model of permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion, we investigated the temporal differences in transcriptomic signatures in pericytes at 1, 12, and 24 hours after stroke compared to the contralateral hemisphere. Our results reveal a stroke-specific subcluster of pericytes that is present at 12 and 24 hours and characterized by the upregulation of genes mainly related to cytokine signalling and immune response. This study identifies temporal transcriptional changes in the acute phase of ischemic stroke that reflect the early response of pericytes to the ischemic insult and its secondary consequences and may constitute potential future therapeutic targets.

Project description:Blood monocytes/macrophages infiltrate the brain after ischemic stroke and critically influence brain injury and regeneration. We investigated stroke-induced transcriptomic changes of monocytes/macrophages by RNA sequencing profiling, using a mouse model of permanent focal cerebral ischemia. Compared to non-ischemic conditions, brain ischemia induced only moderate genomic changes in blood monocytes, but triggered robust genomic reprogramming in monocytes/macrophages invading the brain. Surprisingly, functional enrichment analysis of the transcriptome of brain macrophages revealed significant overrepresentation of biological processes linked to neurovascular remodeling, such as angiogenesis and axonal regeneration, as early as 5 days after stroke, suggesting a previously underappreciated role for macrophages in initiating post-stroke brain repair. Upstream Regulator analysis predicted peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) as a master regulator driving the transcriptional reprogramming in post-stroke brain macrophages. Importantly, myeloid cell-specific PPARγ knockout (mKO) mice demonstrated lower post-stroke angiogenesis and neurogenesis than wild-type mice, which correlated significantly with the exacerbation of post-stroke neurological deficits in mKO mice. Collectively, our findings reveal a novel repair-enhancing transcriptome in brain macrophages during post-stroke neurovascular remodeling. As a master switch controlling genomic reprogramming, PPARγ is a rational therapeutic target for promoting and maintaining beneficial macrophage functions, facilitating neurorestoration, and improving long-term functional recovery after ischemic stroke.

Project description:To further delineate tPA functions in the blood, we examined the gene expression profiles induced by tPA in a rat model of ischemic stroke. Forty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to: 2 hours of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO); a permanent-MCAO; or were used as controls. tPA was administered to half of the rats in each group at 3hours. Whole blood was drawn at 24 hours, and isolated RNA levels measured on Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 GeneChip microarrays to examine the entire RNA transcriptome. 42 samples, 7 groups in total ( 2 treatmented disease, 2 untreated disease, and 3 control groups), each group had 6 replicates

Project description:Ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and major healthcare and economic burden. It is a well recognized disease of aging, yet it is unclear how the age-dependent vulnerability occurs and what are the underlying mechanisms. To address these issues, we performed a comprehensive RNA-Seq analysis of aging, ischemic stroke and their interaction using a model of permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in 3 and 18 month old female mice. We assessed differential gene expression across injury status and age, estimated cell type proportion changes, assayed the results against a range of transcriptional signatures from the literature and performed unsupervised co-expression analysis, identifying modules of genes with varying response to injury. We uncovered selective vulnerability of neuronal populations and increased activation of type-I interferon (IFN-I) signaling and several other inflammatory pathways in aged mice. We extended these findings via targeted expression analysis in tissue as well as acutely purified cellular populations to show differential temporal dynamics of IFN-I signaling between age groups and contribution of individual cell types. Together, these results paint a picture of ischemic stroke as a complex age related disease and provide insights into interaction of aging and stroke on cellular and molecular level.

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:The purpose of this project was to elucidate gene expression in the peripheral whole blood of acute ischemic stroke patients to identify a panel of genes for the diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Peripheral blood samples were collected in Paxgene Blood RNA tubes from stroke patients who were >18 years of age with MRI diagnosed ischemic stroke and controls who were non-stroke neurologically healthy. The results suggest a panel of genes can be used to diagnose ischemic stroke, and provide information about the biological pathways involved in the response to acute ischemic stroke in humans. Total RNA extracted from whole blood in n=39 ischemic stroke patients compared to n=24 healthy control subjects.
