Project description:Traumatic brain injury dysregulates microRNA expression in the brain. We hypothesized that injury-induced epigenetic changes contribute to neurodegeneration and learning and memory deficits after TBI. These changes may provide a mechanistic explanation for neuropsychiatric comorbidities in TBI patients. Our objective is to compare and contrast the effects of several neuroprotective drugs (JM6, PMI-006 and E33-estrogen) on the TBI-induced changes in microRNA expression in the hippocampus, a region of the brain that is critical for learning and memory. We will also study if different neuroprotective drugs have similar effects on common microRNAs which may cooperatively regulate a common set of gene targets. 3 biological samples each of Naïve, Sham control, TBI and TBI plus JM6, TI plus PMI-006, and TBI plus E33 rat hippocampi were obtained 24 hr post-sham injury or TBI, stored in RNA later and sent to GenUs Biosystems for microRNA microarray analysis.

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) alters and dysregulates the expression of thousands of genes in the brain. Since some of the most common problems in TBI patients are learning and memory deficits, we are studying the effects of TBI on the hippocampus, a region of the brain which is essential for learning and memory and which is known to be particularly vulnerable to TBI. We are interested in understanding how potential neuroprotective drugs alter the TBI-induced gene expression profile. The objective of this study is to elucidate and compare the differential gene expression profiles in the hippocampus of naive, sham-control, TBI and TBI plus drug treated rats. JM6, PMI-006 and E33 are three compounds with neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects. Our goal is to determine if different neuroprotective compounds have similar effects on common gene targets. These genes and the cell signaling pathways linked to them would then be the target of new therapeutic strategies for TBI. Rats were prepared for fluid percussion traumatic brain injury or sham injury (naïve rats had no anesthesia and were not handled in any way and gene expression in their brains serve as baseline data) and 24 hr post-injury, hippocampi were obtained, and stored in RNA later. Total RNA was isolated, quantitified and used for Agilent microarray analysis at GenUs Biosystems. Each group of naive, sham control, TBI and TBI plus JM6, TBI plus PMI-006 and TBI plus E33 (estrogen) has three biological replicates.

Project description:The current lack of proven pharmacological treatment options for traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients reflects the poor translation of successful preclinical studies in clinical trials. This may be due to poor choice of therapeutic agents based on incomplete knowledge of critical elements of neuroprotection. Our goal is to expedite discovery and translation of therapeutic agents that can improve functional outcome by identifying the common molecular profile of neuroprotective drugs. Since damage to the hippocampus is associated with TBI-induced deficits in learning and memory, we analyzed of the hippocampal transcriptional profiles of TBI rats treated with two clinically used drugs metyrapone and carbenoxolone, which have been shown to improve cognitive deficits in previous studies. Despite their different structures, we found that MT and CB have similar effects on several known biological pathways. The neuroprotective effects of these drugs are associated with a distinctive molecular signature which is characterized not by changes in expression of any individual gene but by a common global effect on multiple cell signaling pathways. These data suggest that drug treatments that induce a coordinated attenuation of multiple injury-induced cell signaling networks, both deleterious and protective, have high translational potential. There were 16 samples for array analysis, two biological replicates each for control (4 and 24 hour), TBI (4 and 24 hour), TBI plus MT (4 and 24 hour) and TBI plus CB (4 and 24 hour). Each biological sample, which is a pooled RNA sample (laser captured CA3 pyramidal neurons) from the hippocampus of 3-6 rats, was hybridized to duplicate arrays so that there were 32 gene arrays in this study.

Project description:Sirt1, a NAD-dependent deacetylase, has been shown involved in many complex biological functions. We previously demonstrated that Sirt-1 gain of function is neuroprotective in a model of neurodegenenration. We recently found that Sirt1 loss of function (Sirt1Î mouse) impairs learning, memory, and synaptic plasticity. We used microarray screening to identify potential miRNAs that may be regulated by Sirt1 and ivolved in learning and memory. Total RNA from the hippocampus of SIRT1Î and control mice was extracted and used for microRNA expression level evaluation. Two group experiment, in duplicates. Each sample is compared to a common reference sample, comprised of an equal mixture of all 4 experimental samples.

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been postulated to initiate a disease process that interacts with vascular dysfunction. However, the combined effects of preexisting cerebral hypoperfusion and TBI remain poorly explored. This study aimed to investigate the combined effects of bilateral carotid artery stenosis (BCAS) and mild-moderate TBI on cerebral blood flow (CBF), cognitive function, histology, and transcriptomics in Swiss-Webster mice. Male and female mice underwent BCAS using steel microcoils around the carotid arteries, followed by TBI 30 days post coil implantation. CBF, spatial learning and memory, axonal damage, and gene expression profiles were assessed. BCAS led to a ~10% reduction in CBF, while TBI caused a similar decrease. However, mice exposed to both BCAS and TBI exhibited more pronounced reductions in CBF, associated with marked spatial learning and memory deficits, particularly in males. Axonal damage in male mice was also exacerbated by the combination of BCAS and TBI. Notably, females demonstrated differential vascular and cognitive responses to BCAS and TBI, suggesting sex-specific protective mechanisms. Single nuclei RNA sequencing revealed unique, cell type-specific gene expression alterations due to BCAS, TBI, or the combination. Moreover, BCAS and TBI induced significant gene expression changes in various cell types, hinting at complex cellular interactions following vascular challenges and trauma. The cellular and molecular interplay between hypoperfusion and TBI points to intricate vascular-neuronal interactions and potential avenues for targeted interventions.

Project description:Post-traumatic neuroinflammation is a key driver of secondary injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Pyroptosis, a proinflammatory form of programmed cell death, considerably activates strong neuroinflammation and amplifies the inflammatory response by releasing inflammatory contents. Therefore, treatments targeting pyroptosis may beneficially effects for the treatment of secondary brain damage after TBI. Herein, a cysteine-alanine-glutamine-lysine (CAQK) peptide-modified β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) nanoparticle was constructed to deliver disulfiram (DSF), C-β-LG/DSF, to inhibit pyroptosis and decrease neuroinflammation, thereby preventing TBI-induced secondary injury. In the post-TBI mice model, C-β-LG/DSF selectively targets the injured brain, increases DSF accumulation, and extends the time of the systemic circulation of DSF. C-β-LG/DSF can alleviate brain edema and inflammatory response, inhibit secondary brain injury, promote learning, and improve memory recovery in mice after trauma. Therefore, this study likely provided a new approach for reducing the secondary spread of TBI.

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of late onset dementia. However, to date, no efficient therapy for AD is available. Here, we identified a neuroprotective role of the liver contributing to brain amyloid-β (Aβ) homeostasis. The hippocampus is a crucial region for learning and memory and is one of the brain areas most affected by AD. To investigate brain mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective role of the liver in AD pathology, we performed proteomics analysis of hippocampus extracted from 5×FAD::Alb-CreERT2;Ephx2−/− mice and control littermates. After quality control, we identified 67 protein expressions that were differently regulated between the two genotypes, including nine proteins in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway of AD
