Project description:The present study has used whole-rat genome microarray expression profiling to identify genes whose expression is significantly altered in hippocampal neuronal cultures submitted to oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD), an established in vitro model for cerebral global ischemia that is suitable for investigations at the molecular level. To do so, total RNA was extracted from hippocampal neuronal cultures at an early (7h) and delayed (24h) time point after OGD, as well as from control neurons. Analysis of gene ontology showed that OGD followed by 7h or 24h of recovery induces changes in the expression levels of genes related with inflammation, response to oxidative stress, metabolism, apoptosis, synaptic proteins and ion channels and, importantly, genes that show different expression levels are mainly specific to one of the two time points of recovery analyzed. The expression levels of several genes were confirmed by qPCR and were in good agreement with the microarray data, showing that the combined use of the OGD model and the microarray technology can be a useful tool for the study molecular mechanisms contributing to the neuronal demise after transient global ischemia. Ischemia induced gene expression in primary hippocampal neuronal rat cultures was measured at 7 and 24 hours after exposure to Oxygen and Glucose deprivation (OGD). Three independent experiments were performed at each time (7 or 24 hours) as independent biological replicates.
Project description:Brain microvascular endothelial cell (BMEC) injury can affect neuronal survival by modulating immune responses through the microenvironment. We used microarrays to detail the miRNAs expression in the exosomes from normal and oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD)-cultured BMECs.
Project description:Oxygen and glucose metabolism plays a pivotal role in many (patho)physiological conditions. In particular, oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) occurs during ischemia and stroke, resulting in extensive tissue injury and cell death. We applied time-resolved ribosome profiling technique to assess early events at the level of gene expression in rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells during short-term OGD. Most substantial alterations in transcripts levels and their translation were seen to occur in the first 20 minutes of OGD. The rapid adaptation of translation apparatus to OGD is global and involves altered elongation and initiation rates. We also observed salient and reproducible alterations in ribosome densities of individual mRNAs such as increased translation of particular upstream Open Reading Frames (uORFs); induced site-specific arrests of the ribosomes and synthesis of extended protein isoforms. Ribosome profiling (with mRNA-seq sequencing) was carried out at 0,20,40 and 60 minutes of OGD. Two biological replicates were used.

Project description:Migroglia cells were exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) for 3 h. The mRNA was isolated and the expression profiles of OGD-activated cells were compared with the profiles of resting cells.

Project description:Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) is initiated by perinatal asphyxia, leading to brain injury triggered by reduced blood and oxygen flow, resulting in neurological impairments such as cerebral palsy, epilepsy, cognitive deficits, and behavioral disorders.Recent insights collectively suggest the important roles of lysyl oxidase (LOX) in the pathological processes of several acute and chronic neurological diseases, but the molecular regulatory mechanisms in HIBD remain elusive.In this study, we found through the study of HIBD rat models and the oxygen-glucose deprivation/re-oxygenation (OGD/R) cell models that LOX significantly increased after HIBD or OGD/R. RNA seq results showed a significant increase in piezo1 after primary neuron OGD/R, and iron death data was also enriched. Moreover, inhibiting LOX or piezo1 can rescue neuronal ferroptosis and further improve cognitive function in rats. In addition, we also found that traumatic acid can inhibit the enzyme activity of LOX and improve a series of pathological features of neuronal damage caused by increased LOX.

Project description:miRNA microarray profiling of primary cortical neurons exposed to 4h oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) in vitro. RNA samples collected at 8h post-OGD terminaion. miRNAs were also profiled in mice exposed to 3- vessel occlusion model of stroke. RNA samples collected from contralateral (control) and ipsilateral (infarct) sides of the brain following 24h of reperfusion.
