Association of Ferroptosis with Severity and Outcomes in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients Undergoing Endovascular Thrombectomy: A Case-control Study
AbstractFerroptosis, an iron-dependent form of cell death, is characterized by intracellular accumulation of iron and reactive oxygen species-induced lipid peroxidation. Animal experiments have shown the important roles of ferroptosis in ischemic stroke, but the evidence in human stroke is insufficient. This prospective study evaluated the associations between plasma ferroptosis biomarkers at hyperacute stage and long-term outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke undergoing endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). The plasma samples were collected immediately before and after EVT (T1 and T2) and at 24  h (T3) for the 126 s...

SLC26A11 Inhibition Reduces Oncotic Neuronal Death and Attenuates Stroke Reperfusion Injury
In this study, electrophysiological properties of chloride current in primary cultured neurons were characterized using low chloride solution, 4,4 ′-diisothiocyano-2,2′-stilbenedisulfonic acid, and SLC26A11-specific siRNA under physiological conditions or ATP-depleted conditions. In vivo effect of SLC26A11 was evaluated on a rat stroke reperfusion model. We found that SLC26A11 mRNA in primary cultured neurons was upregulated as early as 6  h after oxygen glucose deprivation, and later, the protein level was elevated accordingly. Blockade of SLC26A11 activity could reduce chloride entry and attenuate hypoxia-induced ne...

Neuroprotective Effects of Phenolic Antioxidant Tert-butylhydroquinone (tBHQ) in Brain Diseases
This article reviews the effects of tBHQ on neuroinflammation and oxidative stress in recent years and looks into how tBHQ inhibits neuroinflammation and oxidative stress through human, animal, and cell experiments to play a neuroprotective role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), stroke, depression, and Parkinson’s disease (PD). It is anticipated that this article will be useful as a reference for upcoming research and the creation of drugs to treat brain diseases.

Exosomal circCNOT6L Regulates Astrocyte Apoptotic Signals Induced by Hypoxia Exposure Through miR99a-5p/SERPINE1 and Alleviates Ischemic Stroke Injury
In conclusion, CircCNOT6L attenuated the cell apopt otic signal of astrocytes via the miR99a-5p/SERPINE1 axis and then alleviated injury after hypoxia induced by ischemic stroke.

Age-Associated Resilience Against Ischemic Injury in Mice Exposed to Transient Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion
AbstractIschemic stroke is the leading cause of death and disability. Although stroke mainly affects aged individuals, animal research is mostly one on young rodents. Here, we examined the development of ischemic injury in young (9 –12-week-old) and adult (72-week-old) C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice exposed to 30 min of intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo). Post-ischemic reperfusion did not differ between young and adult mice. Ischemic injury assessed by infarct area and blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity assessed by IgG extravasation analysis was smaller in adult compared with young mice. Microvascular viabili...

Neuroprotective Effects of Piceatannol on Olfactory Bulb Injury after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
This study is the first to demonstrate the neuroprotective effects of PIC on OB injury after SAH. It suggests that PIC would be a potential therapeutic agent for alleviating OB injury after SAH.

MiR-17-5p Mediates the Effects of ACE2-Enriched Endothelial Progenitor Cell-Derived Exosomes on Ameliorating Cerebral Ischemic Injury in Aged Mice
AbstractAging is one of the key mechanisms of vascular dysfunction and contributes to the initiation and progression of ischemic stroke (IS). Our previous study demonstrated that ACE2 priming enhanced the protective effects of exosomes derived from endothelial progenitor cells (EPC-EXs) on hypoxia-induced injury in aging endothelial cells (ECs). Here, we aimed to investigate whether ACE2-enriched EPC-EXs (ACE2-EPC-EXs) could attenuate brain ischemic injury by inhibiting cerebral EC damage through their carried miR-17-5p and the underlying molecular mechanisms. The enriched miRs in ACE2-EPC-EXs were screened using the miR s...

Inhibition of Vesicular Glutamate Transporters (VGLUTs) with Chicago Sky Blue 6B Before Focal Cerebral Ischemia Offers Neuroprotection
In this study, we aimed to determine the effect of focal cerebral ischemia on the spatiotemporal expression of VGLUT1 and VGLUT2 in rats. Next, we investigated the influence of VGLUT inhibition with Chicago Sky Blue 6B (CSB6B) on Glu release and stroke outcome. The effect of CSB6B pretreatment on infarct volume and neurological deficit was compared with a reference model of ischemic preconditioning. The results of this study indicate that ischemia upregulated the expression of VGLUT1 in the cerebral cortex and in the dorsal striatum 3  days after ischemia onset. The expression of VGLUT2 was elevated in the dorsal striatum...

Lnc_000048 Promotes Histone H3K4 Methylation of MAP2K2 to Reduce Plaque Stability by Recruiting KDM1A in Carotid Atherosclerosis
AbstractStabilizing and inhibiting plaque formation is a key challenge for preventing and treating ischemic stroke. KDM1A-mediated histone modifications, which involved in the development of training immunity, ultimately exacerbate the outcomes of inflammation. Although lncRNAs can recruit KDM1A to participate in histone methylation modification and regulate inflammation, cell proliferation, and other biological processes, little is known about the role of KDM1A-lncRNA interaction during atherosclerosis. The present study sought to delineate the effect of the interaction between lnc_000048 and KDM1A on plaque rupture in ca...

Activation of CREB-BDNF Pathway in Pyramidal Neurons in the Hippocampus Improves the Neurological Outcome of Mice with Ischemic Stroke
In this study, overexpression of CREB protein in pyramidal neurons in vCA1 by AAV virus significantly upregulated the content of BDNF and ameliorated the dysfunction induced by ischemic stroke. Our results demonstrated activation of the CREB-BDNF pathway in vCA1 pyramidal neurons significantly improved neurological deficits, pain perception, anxiety, and depression induced by ischemic stroke.

The Weakened Interaction Between HECTD4 and GluN2B in Ischemic Stroke Promotes Calcium Overload and Brain Injury Through a Mechanism Involving the Decrease of GluN2B and MALT1 Ubiquitination
This study explores the relationship between HECTD4, GluN2B, and MALT1, focusing on their role in brain injury in ischemic stroke. Rats were subjected to 2  h-ischemia followed by 24-h reperfusion to establish an ischemic stroke model. We observed the downregulation of HECTD4 and the upregulation of MALT1. Additionally, an increased GluN2B phosphorylation was concomitant with weakened interactions between HECTD4 and GluN2B, followed by decreased stria tal-enriched protein phosphatase (STEP61). Knockdown of HECTD4 exacerbated hypoxia- or NMDA-induced injury in nerve cells coincident with a decrease in GluN2B and MALT1 ubiq...
