Influence of sex, age and diabetes on brain transcriptome and proteome modifications following cerebral ischemia

ABSTRACT: Ischemic stroke is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. Translation into the clinical setting of neuroprotective agents showing promising results in pre-clinical studies has systematically failed. One of the reasons that could explain this failure is that the animal models used to test neuroprotectants do not represent properly the population affected by stroke, as the majority of pre-clinical studies are performed in healthy young male mice. In this regard, we aimed to determine if the response to cerebral ischemia differed depending on age, sex and the presence of comorbidities. Thus, we explored proteomic and transcriptomic changes triggered during the hyperacute phase of cerebral ischemia (by transient intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion) in the brain of: (1) young male mice, (2) young female mice, (3) aged male mice and (4) diabetic young male mice. Moreover, we compared the proteomic and transcriptomic changes of each group using an integrative enrichment pathways analysis to disclose key common and exclusive altered proteins, genes and pathways in the first stages of the disease. We found 61 differentially expressed genes (DEG) in male mice, 77 in females, 699 in diabetic and 24 in aged mice. Of these, only 14 were commonly dysregulated in all four groups. The enrichment pathways analysis revealed that the inflammatory response was the biological process with more DEG in all groups of animals, followed by hemopoiesis and lymphoid organ development. Our findings indicate that the response to cerebral ischemia regarding proteomic and transcriptomic changes differs depending on the sex, age and comorbidities, highlighting the importance of incorporating these groups of animals in future stroke research studies.

Project description:Stroke remains a major leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Despite continuous advances, the identification of key molecular signatures of ischemic stroke within the hyper-acute phase of the disease is still of primary interest for a real translational research on stroke diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. High-throughput - omics technologies are enabling large-scale studies on stroke pathology at different molecular levels. Data integration resulting from these -omics approaches is becoming crucial to unravel the interactions among all different molecular elements and highly contribute to interpret all findings in a complex biological context. Here, we have used advanced data integration methods for multi-level joint analysis of transcriptomics and proteomics datasets depicted from the mouse brain 2h after cerebral ischemia. By modeling network-like correlation structures, we identified a set of differentially expressed genes and proteins by ischemia with a relevant association in stroke pathology. The ischemia-induced deregulation of 10 of these inter-correlated elements was successfully verified in a new cohort of ischemic mice, and changes in their expression pattern were also evaluated at a later time-point after cerebral ischemia. Of those, CLDN20, GADD45G, RGS2, BAG5 and CTNND2 were highlighted and evaluated as potential blood biomarkers of cerebral ischemia in blood samples from ischemic and sham-control mice and from ischemic strokes and other patients presenting stroke-mimicking conditions. Our findings indicated that CTNND2 and GADD45G levels in blood within the first hours after ischemic stroke might be potentially useful to discriminate ischemic strokes from mimics and to predict patients’ poor outcome after stroke, respectively. In summary, we have here used for the first time an integrative approach to elucidate by means of biostatistical tools key elements of the initial stages of the stroke pathophysiology, highlighting new outstanding proteins that might be further considered as blood biomarkers of ischemic stroke.
