Early Ultrafast Ultrasound Imaging of Cerebral Perfusion correlates with Ischemic Stroke outcomes and responses to treatment in Mice
Conclusion: We thus provide the proof of concept that in a mouse model of thromboembolic stroke with an intact skull, early ultrafast ultrasound can be indicative of responses to treatment and cerebral tissue fates following stroke. It brings new tools to study ischemic stroke in preclinical models and is the first step prior translation to the clinical settings.

Circulating Exosomes of Neuronal Origin as Potential Early Biomarkers for Development of Stroke
AbstractStroke is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality globally, with devastating effects. It is diagnosed mainly by clinical assessment and brain imaging; however, it is challenging to discriminate stroke from similar conditions with parallel presentations. While brain imaging provides detection of stroke infarcts, it does not provide useful information on the biology and prognosis of the underlying disease process. The complex pathophysiology of stroke infarcts is a barrier in developing sensitive diagnostic tools, which consequently has a detrimental effect on development of treatment regimens. Early diagn...

Systemic inflammation after stroke: implications for post-stroke comorbidities
EMBO Mol Med. 2022 Aug 15:e16269. doi: 10.15252/emmm.202216269. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTImmunological mechanisms have come into the focus of current translational stroke research, and the modulation of neuroinflammatory pathways has been identified as a promising therapeutic approach to protect the ischemic brain. However, stroke not only induces a local neuroinflammatory response but also has a profound impact on systemic immunity. In this review, we will summarize the consequences of ischemic stroke on systemic immunity at all stages of the disease, from onset to long-term outcome, and discuss underlying mechanisms...

New insights into circRNA and its mechanisms in angiogenesis regulation in ischemic stroke: a biomarker and therapeutic target
Mol Biol Rep. 2022 Nov 4. doi: 10.1007/s11033-022-07949-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIschemic stroke accounts for about 71% of strokes worldwide. Due to limited recommended therapeutics for ischemic stroke, more attention is focused on angiogenesis in ischemic stroke. Not long after ischemic stroke, angiogenesis arises and is vital for the prognosis. Various pro-angiogenic, anti-angiogenic factors and their downstream pathways engage in angiogenesis regulation. CircRNAs are differentially expressed after ischemic stroke. Up to now, circRNAs have been found to exert many functions in regulating apoptosis, autophagy, pro...

Association between the MMP-9-1562 C>T polymorphism and the risk of stroke: a meta-analysis.
Association between the MMP-9-1562 C>T polymorphism and the risk of stroke: a meta-analysis. Mol Biol Rep. 2014 Jul 11; Authors: Fan ZZ, Ge ZM, Cai HB, Liu ZY, Liu P, Wang HY Abstract Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 so far is identified as extremely large and complicated MMP family member. Recently, dozens of studies have explored the association between a promoter polymorphism (-1562 C>T) in MMP-9 and stroke susceptibility. However, the conclusions of these studies still remain equivocal. Therefore, our current meta-analysis was conducted to investigate whether or not the MMP-9 promoter polymo...

Electroacupuncture promotes neural stem cell proliferation and neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of rats following stroke via upregulation of Notch1 expression.
In conclusion, to the best of our knowledge, the present study was the first to demonstrate that EA treatment promoted NSC proliferation and neurogenesis in the DG area through the upregulation of Notch signaling following a stroke; therefore, EA may be a useful novel therapeutic strategy in future stroke treatment.

Temporal profiles of blood pressure, circulating nitric oxide, and adrenomedullin as predictors of clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients.
Authors: Serrano-Ponz M, Rodrigo-Gasqué C, Siles E, Martínez-Lara E, Ochoa-Callejero L, Martínez A Abstract Stroke remains an important health and social challenge. The present study investigated whether blood pressure (BP) parameters and circulating levels of nitric oxide metabolites (NOx) and adrenomedullin (AM) may predict clinical outcomes of stroke. Patients (n=76) diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke were admitted to the stroke unit and clinical history data and monitored parameters were recorded. Blood plasma was collected at days 1, 2, and 7 to measure NOx and AM levels. Infarct volume, neurological sev...

Quercetin protects against heat stroke-induced myocardial injury in male rats: Antioxidative and antiinflammatory mechanisms.
Abstract Heat stroke is characterilized by hyperthermia, systemic inflammation, and multiple organ failure including arterial hypotension. This definition can be fulfilled by a rat model of heat stroke used in the present study. Anesthetized animals were exposed to heat exposure (43 °C for 70 min) and then returned to room temperature (26 °C) for recovery. One hour before heat exposure, an intraperitoneal dose of quercetin (30 mg/kg) or vehicle (normal saline 1 ml/kg) was administered to the experimental groups of rats. Additional injection was administered immediately after the onset of heat stroke. Immedi...

Identification of six polymorphisms as novel susceptibility loci for ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke by exome-wide association studies.
In this study, we performed exome-wide association studies (EWASs) to identify genetic variants that confer susceptibility to ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), or subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). EWAS for ischemic stroke was performed using 1,575 patients with this condition and 9,210 controls, and EWASs for ICH and SAH were performed using 673 patients with ICH, 265 patients with SAH and 9,158 controls. Analyses were performed with Illumina HumanExome-12 DNA Analysis BeadChip or Infinium Exome-24 BeadChip arrays. The relation of allele frequencies for 41,339 or 41,332 single nucleotide polymorphismsÂ...

Evaluation of serum levels of homocysteine and C-reactive protein in patients with ischemic stroke
Cell Mol Biol (Noisy-le-grand). 2022 Jul 31;68(7):56-62. doi: 10.14715/cmb/2022.68.7.10.ABSTRACTStroke is the third most common cause of death in the world. Plasma homocysteine is an emerging risk factor for stroke. Also, previous studies have shown that serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) are significantly associated with mortality and function in patients with ischemic stroke. In the present study, we examined homocysteine and serum CRP levels in patients with ischemic stroke. This descriptive-analytical study was performed on 100 patients with ischemic stroke. Blood samples were taken in the first 24 hours of a str...
