Background
Blood brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction is a common facet of cerebral ischemia, and the alteration of drug transporter, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), has been documented.Aims
This study explores influence of damaged BBB and elevated P-gp on cerebral verapamil penetration after ischemia both in vivo and in vitro.Methods
Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) induced ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) of rats, and Na2S2O4 induced hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) damage of rat brain mirovessel endothelial cells (RBMECs) respectively, served as BBB breakdown model in vivo and in vitro. Evans-Blue (EB) extravagation and 125I-albumin were used to quantify BBB dysfunction; UPLC–MS/MS analytical method was performed to determine accurately the concentration of verapamil in brain tissue and cell. Flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry and western blotting were applied to evaluate transport function and protein expression of P-gp.Results
Overexpressed ICAM-1 and MMP-9 mediated BBB dysfunction after ischemia, which induced EB leakage and 125I-albumin uptake increase. Enhanced accumulation of verapamil in brain tissue, but intracellular concentration reduced evidently after H/R injury. Transcellular transportation of verapamil elevated when P-gp function or expression was inhibited after H/R injury.Conclusion
These data indicated that BBB penetration of verapamil under ischemia condition was not only depending on BBB breakdown, but also regulated by P-gp. 相似文献2.
Background
Brain ischemia is the underlying cause of neuron death during stroke and brain trauma. Neural cells exposed to ischemia can undergo apoptosis. Adrenomedullin (AM) in combination with its enhancing binding protein, AMBP-1, has been shown to reduce tissue damage in inflammation.Methods
To evaluate a beneficial effect of AM/AMBP-1 administration in brain ischemia, we employed an in vitro model of neuronal hypoxia using differentiated human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells.Results
After exposure to 1% O2 for 20 h, neural cells were injured with decreased ATP levels and increased LDH release. Pre-administration of AM/AMBP-1 significantly reduced hypoxia-induced cell injury. Moreover, AM/AMBP-1 treatment reduced the number of TUNEL-positive cells and activation of caspase-3, compared to cells exposed to hypoxia alone. AM/AMBP-1 prevented a reduction of cAMP levels and protein kinase A (PKA) activity in neural cells after hypoxia exposure. Correspondingly, an elevation of cAMP levels by forskolin protected neural cells from hypoxia-induced injury. Inhibition of PKA by KT5720 abolished the protective effect of AM/AMBP-1 on hypoxia-induced apoptosis.Conclusions
AM/AMBP-1 elevates cAMP levels, followed by activating PKA, to protect neural cells from the injury caused by hypoxia.General significance
AM/AMBP-1 may be used as therapeutic agents to prevent neuron damage from brain ischemia. 相似文献3.

Aim
Aquaporin-4(AQP4) expression in the brain with relation to edema formation following focal cerebral ischemia was investigated. Studies have shown that brain edema is one of the significant factors in worsening stroke outcomes. While many mechanisms may aggravate brain injury, one such potential system may involve AQP4 up regulation in stroke patients that could result in increased edema formation. Post administration of melatonin following ischemic stroke reduces AQP4 mediated brain edema and confers neuroprotection.Materials and methods
An in-silico approach was undertaken to confirm effective melatonin-AQP4 binding. Rats were treated with 5 mg/kg, i.p. melatonin or placebo at 30 min prior, 60 min post and 120 min post 60 min of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) followed by 24 h reperfusion. Rats were evaluated for battery of neurological and motor function tests just before sacrifice. Brains were harvested for infarct size estimation, water content measurement, biochemical analysis, apoptosis study and western blot experiments.Key findings
Melatonin at 60 min post ischemia rendered neuroprotection as evident by reduction in cerebral infarct volume, improvement in motor and neurological deficit and reduction in brain edema. Furthermore, ischemia induced surge in levels of nitrite and malondialdehyde (MDA) were also found to be significantly reduced in ischemic brain regions in treated animals. Melatonin potentiated intrinsic antioxidant status, inhibited acid mediated rise in intracellular calcium levels, decreased apoptotic cell death and also markedly inhibited protein kinase C (PKC) influenced AQP4 expression in the cerebral cortex and dorsal striatum.Significance
Melatonin confers neuroprotection by protein kinase C mediated AQP4 inhibition in ischemic stroke. 相似文献5.

Aims
Pre-treatment with statins is known to ameliorate ischemic brain damage after experimental stroke, and is independent of cholesterol levels. We undertook pre- vs post-ischemic treatment with atorvastatin after focal cerebral ischemia in rats.Main methods
Male Sprague–Dawley rats underwent transient 90-min middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Atorvastatin (20 mg/kg/day) or vehicle was administered orally. Rats were divided into vehicle-treated, atorvastatin pre-treatment, atorvastatin post-treatment, and atorvastatin continuous-treatment groups. In the pre-treatment, rats were given atorvastatin or vehicle for 7 days before MCAO. In the post-treatment, rats received atorvastatin or vehicle for 7 days after MCAO. Measurement of infarct volume, as well as neurological and immunohistochemical assessments, were done 24 h and 7 days after reperfusion.Key findings
Each atorvastatin-treated group demonstrated significant reductions in infarct and edema volumes compared with the vehicle-treated group 24 h after reperfusion. Seven days after reperfusion, infarct volumes in the post-treatment group and continuous-treatment group (but not the pre-treatment group) were significantly smaller than in the vehicle-treated group. Only the continuous-treatment group had significantly improved neurological scores 7 days after reperfusion compared with the vehicle group. Post-treatment and continuous-treatment groups had significantly decreased lipid peroxidation, oxidative DNA damage, microglial activation, expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and neuronal damage in the cortical ischemic boundary area after 7 days of reperfusion.Significance
These results suggest that continuous oral administration (avoiding withdrawal) with statins after stroke may reduce the extent of post-ischemic brain damage and improve neurological outcome by inhibiting oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. 相似文献6.

Objective
Chronic pancreatitis is a gradual, long-term inflammation of the pancreas that results in alteration of its normal structure and function. The study aims to investigate the role of − 308 (G/A) polymorphism of TNF-α gene in chronic pancreatitis.Material and methods
A total of 200 subjects were included in this case–control study. A total of 100 in patients admitted in the Gastroenterology Unit of Gandhi Hospital and Osmania General Hospital, Hyderabad were included in the present study. An equal number of healthy control subjects were randomly selected for the study. The genotyping of TNF-α gene was carried out by tetra-primer ARMS PCR followed by gel electrophoresis. The TNF-α levels were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results
A significant variation with respect to the genotypic and allelic distribution in the disease group when compared to control subjects [OR = 2.001 (1.33–3.005), p < 0.0001**] was observed. Subjects homozygous for the A allele had higher TNF-α levels compared to G allele.Conclusion
The present study revealed a significant association of the TNF-α gene promoter polymorphism with chronic pancreatitis. Thus, TNF-α genotype can be considered as one of the biological markers in the etiology of chronic pancreatitis. 相似文献8.

Objective
Explore the possible protective effect of Sargentodoxa cuneata total phenolic acids on cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury rats.Methods
Focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion rats model were established by linear thrombus. Nimodipine group, Naoluotong group, the high, middle and low dose of Sargentodoxa cuneata total phenolic acids groups were given related drugs via intragastric administration before operation for seven days, once a day. At the same time sham operation group, and ischemia reperfusion group were given the same volume of physiological saline. One hour after the last administration, establish focal cerebral ischemia- reperfusion model in rats by thread method, and the thread was taken out after 2?h ischemia to achieve cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in rats. After reperfusion for 24?h, the rats were given neurologic deficit score. The brain tissue was taken to measure the levels of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, Bcl-2, Bax, Casp-3 and ICAM-1; HE staining observed histopathological changes in the hippocampus and cortical areas of the brain; Immunohistochemistry was used to observe the expression of NGF and NF-KBp65.Result
Focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion rats model was copyed successed. Compared with model group, each dose group of Sargentodoxa cuneata total phenolic acids could decreased the neurologic deficit score (P?<?0.05 or P?<?0.01), decreased the levels of IL-6, IL-1β, ICAM-1, TNF-α, Bax and Caspase-3 in brain tissue (P?<?0.05 or P?<?0.01), increased the levels of IL-10, Bcl-2, NGF in brain tissue (P?<?0.05 or P?<?0.01), decreased the express of NF-KBp65 in brain (P?<?0.05 or P?<?0.01).Conclusion
Sargentodoxa cuneata total phenolic acids can improve focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury rats tissue inflammation, apoptosis pathway, increase nutrition factor to protect the neurons, reduce the apoptosis of nerve cells, activate brain cells self-protect, improve the histopathological changes in the hippocampus and cortical areas of the brain, reduce cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury. 相似文献9.

Background and purpose
Prostaglandin ethanolamides or prostamides are naturally occurring neutral lipid derivatives of prostaglandins that have been shown to be synthesised in vivo following COX-facilitated oxygenation of arachidonoyl ethanolamine (anandamide). Although the actions of prostaglandins have been extensively studied, little is known about the physiological or pathophysiological effects of prostamides. Since prostaglandin E2 has potent immunosuppressive/immunomodulating actions, the aim of the present study was to determine whether the derivative, prostaglandin E2 ethanolamide (PGE2-EA), could modulate the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokine tumour necrosis factor-α in human blood and human monocytic cells and indicate whether this action involved the same receptor systems/signals as PGE2.Experimental approach
Whole human blood, monocytes isolated from the blood or the human monocytic cell line THP-1 was incubated with LPS and the level of TNF-α produced was measured by ELISA assay. The actions of PGE2-EA were assessed on the LPS-induced TNF-α release. In addition, in order to ascertain the receptors involved, the levels of cyclic AMP in cells were measured in monocytes and THP-1 cells in response to PGE2-EA and directly compared to those of PGE2. The effect of PGE2-EA on the binding of radiolabelled PGE2 to cells was also measured. Cells were incubated with radiolabelled arachidonic acid and ethanolamine to estimate the production of PGE2-EA.Key results
PGE2-EA potently suppressed TNF-α production in blood, monocytes and the cell line THP-1 in a concentration-dependent manner. This occurred via cyclic AMP pathways as indicated by agents which interfere with these pathways and also direct ligand binding experiments. It was also shown that the cells were able to endogenously produce PGE2-EA.Conclusions and implications
This study reports that PGE2-EA can downregulate the production of TNF-α by human mononuclear cells in response to an immune stimulus, i.e. LPS-activated TLR4, and that this appears to occur via a cAMP-dependent mechanism that most likely involves binding to the EP2 receptor. 相似文献12.

Background
Cellular plasticity and complex functional requirements of the periodontal ligament (PDL) assume a local stem cell (SC) niche to maintain tissue homeostasis and repair. Here, pathological alterations caused by inflammatory insults might impact the regenerative capacities of these cells. As bone homeostasis is fundamentally controlled by Wnt-mediated signals, it was the aim of this study to characterize the SC-like capacities of cells derived from PDL and to investigate their involvement in bone pathophysiology especially regarding the canonical Wnt pathway.Methods
PDLSCs were investigated for their SC characteristics via analysis of cell surface marker expression, colony forming unit efficiency, proliferation, osteogenic differentiation and adipogenic differentiation, and compared to bone marrow derived mesenchymal SCs (BMMSCs). To determine the impact of both inflammation and the canonical Wnt pathway on osteogenic differentiation, cells were challenged with TNF-α, maintained with or without Wnt3a or DKK-1 under osteogenic induction conditions and investigated for p-IκBα, p-NF-κB, p-Akt, β-catenin, p-GSK-3β, ALP and Runx2.Results
PDLSCs exhibit weaker adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation capacities compared to BMMSCs. TNF-α inhibited osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs more than BMMSCs mainly through regulating canonical Wnt pathway. Blocking the canonical Wnt pathway by DKK-1 reconstituted osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs under inflammatory conditions, whereas activation by Wnt3a increased osteogenic differentiation of BMMSCs.Conclusions
Our results suggest a diverse regulation of the inhibitory effect of TNF-α in BMMSCs and PDLSCs via canonical Wnt pathway modulation.General significance
These findings provide novel insights on PDLSC SC-like capacities and their involvement in bone pathophysiology under the impact of the canonical Wnt pathway. 相似文献13.

Background
Stroke is one of the leading causes of neuronal death. Sesamin is known for neuroprotection by its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties but it lacks blood–brain barrier (BBB) activity. A panel of sesamin derivatives was screened and 3-bis (3-methoxybenzyl) butane-1,4-diol (BBD) was selected for high BBB activity and tested for its neuroprotective effect.Methods
The focal cerebral ischemia of Sprague–Dawley rats and hypoxia models of murine BV-2 microglia or PC12 cells under oxygen/glucose deprivation were used for in vivo and in vitro test, respectively. Lipid peroxidation and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity from the ischemic brain were tested and reactive oxygen species (ROS), cytokine production, prostaglandin (PGE2) and related signaling pathways from hypoxic cells were examined by ELISA or Western blot assay, respectively.Results
BBD showed a protective effect when given 90 min after the focal cerebral ischemia. It also reduced lipid peroxidation and preserved SOD activity from the ischemic brain. The mechanism of BBD was further confirmed by attenuating ROS, cytokine production, and PGE2 release from hypoxic BV-2 or PC12 cells. BBD significantly reduced hypoxia-induced c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) and modulated AKT-1 and caspase-3 (survival and apoptotic pathways) in BV-2 cells, and inhibited hypoxia-induced JNK and cyclooxygenase-2 activation in PC12 cells.Conclusions
The neuroprotective effect of BBD on ischemia/hypoxia models was involved with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. The result would help the development of new CNS drug for protection of ischemia/hypoxia injury. 相似文献14.

Background
Blood-barrier systems are essential in controlling iron levels in organs such as the brain and eye, both of which experience hypoxia in pathological conditions. While hypoxia's effects on numerous iron regulatory and storage proteins have been studied, little is known about how hypoxia affects iron metabolism. Iron also controls glutamate production and secretion; therefore the effects of hypoxia on iron metabolism and glutamate secretion were studied in polarized retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cells.Methods
Primary canine RPE were cultured in Millicells to create polarized cell cultures. Iron uptake and efflux were measured in hypoxic and normoxic conditions. RPE were loaded with 59Fe-transferrin. Glutamate concentrations in the cell conditioned media were also measured.Results
Hypoxia induced a large increase in iron efflux from RPE in the basolateral direction. Glutamate secretion occurred mainly in the basolateral direction which is away from the retina and out of the eye in vivo. Glutamate secretion was doubled under hypoxic conditions.Conclusions
Hypoxia is known to induce oxidative damage. The current results show that iron, a key catalyst of free radical generation, is removed from RPE under hypoxic conditions which may help protect RPE from oxidative stress. Results obtained here indicate the importance of using polarized tight junctional cells as more physiologically relevant models for blood-barrier-like systems.General significance
While the effects of hypoxia on iron efflux and glutamate secretion may be protective for RPE cells and retina, increased glutamate secretion in the brain could cause some of the damaging neurological effects seen in stroke. 相似文献15.
Aims
Melatonin possesses various pharmacological effects including neuroprotective effects against brain ischemia. Post-ischemic increases in matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression and activity mainly contribute to neuronal damage by degradation of the extracellular matrix. This study was designed to examine whether melatonin has a neuroprotective effect and an influence on MMP-9 in transient global brain ischemia.Main methods
Mice were subjected to 20 min of global brain ischemia and sacrificed 72 h later. Melatonin (30 mg/kg) was administered 30 min before and 2 h after ischemia as well as once daily until sacrifice.Key findings
Hippocampal pyramidal cell damage after ischemia was significantly decreased by melatonin. As observed by zymography, melatonin inhibited the increase of MMP-9 activity after ischemia. In the brain sections, the increased gelatinase activity was mainly observed in the hippocampus after ischemia and melatonin also reduced gelatinase activity. The laminin and NeuN expression levels were reduced in the hippocampal CA1 and CA2 regions after ischemia, and melatonin reduced laminin degradation and neuronal loss. A TUNEL assay demonstrated that there were TUNEL-positive cells in the hippocampus and the number of TUNEL-positive cells was significantly decreased by melatonin. There was no difference in the ischemia-induced hippocampal neuronal damage between the vehicle- and melatonin-treated groups of MMP-9 knock-out mice.Significance
These data demonstrate that melatonin suppressed the occurrence of neuronal injury, which might be partly due to its inhibitory effects on MMP-9 in addition to its anti-oxidative effects. MMP-9 may be an important key target of melatonin in neuroprotection against global ischemia. 相似文献16.

Objective
This study is to explore the role of 78 kD glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) in the development of hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) in rats.Methods
The rat model of liver cirrhosis and HPS were induced with multiple pathogenic factors. Hematoxylin and eosin (H & E) staining was performed to detect the pathological changes of the lung and liver tissues. The levels of alanine transferase (ALT), endotoxin, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in plasma and TNF-α and malondialdehyde (MDA) in lung tissues were detected. RT-PCR and Western blotting were conducted to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of GRP78 in lungs.Results
The plasma endotoxin level was gradually increased as HPS developed, and the mRNA and protein expression levels of GRP78 in lungs were also increased as the disease progressed. The levels of ALT and TNF-α in plasma and the contents of TNF-α and MDA in lung tissues were gradually increased along with the disease progression, with a strong positive correlation. Compared with controls, the plasma TNF-α level and the mRNA and protein expression levels of GRP78 in lung tissues were significantly higher in rats with HPS. The levels of endotoxin and ALT in plasma and the level of MDA in lungs were significantly higher in rats with HPS than controls.Conclusions
The increased GRP78 expression is indicative of endoplasmic reticulum stress response during HPS, which may play an important role in the disease pathogenesis. 相似文献17.

Aims
Septic shock, the severe form of sepsis, is associated with development of progressive damage in multiple organs. Kidney can be injured and its functions altered by activation of coagulation, vasoactive-peptide and inflammatory processes in sepsis. Endothelin (ET)-1, a potent vasoconstrictor, is implicated in the pathogenesis of sepsis and its complications. Protease-activated receptors (PARs) are shown to play an important role in the interplay between inflammation and coagulation. We examined the time-dependent alterations of ET-1 and inflammatory cytokine, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in kidney tissue in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic rat model and the effects of PAR2 blocking peptide on the LPS-induced elevations of renal ET-1 and TNF-α levels.Main methods
Male Wistar rats at 8 weeks of age were administered with either saline solution or LPS at different time points (1, 3, 6 and 10 h). Additionally, we treated LPS-administered rats with PAR2 blocking peptide for 3 h to assess whether blockade of PAR2 has a regulatory role on the ET-1 level in septic kidney.Key findings
An increase in ET-1 peptide level was observed in kidney tissue after LPS administration time-dependently. Levels of renal TNF-α peaked (around 12-fold) at 1 h of sepsis. Interestingly, PAR2 blocking peptide normalized the LPS-induced elevations of renal ET-1 and TNF-α levels.Significance
The present study reveals a distinct chronological expression of ET-1 and TNF-α in LPS-administered renal tissues and that blockade of PAR2 may play a crucial role in treating renal injury, via normalization of inflammation, coagulation and vaso-active peptide. 相似文献18.

Background
Tiliroside is a dietary glycosidic flavonoid which has shown in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. This study is aimed at evaluating the effect of tiliroside on neuroinflammation in BV2 microglia, and to identify its molecular targets of anti-neuroinflammatory action.Methods
BV2 cells were stimulated with LPS + IFNγ in the presence or absence of tiliroside. TNFα, IL-6, nitrite and PGE2 production was determined with ELISA, Griess assay and enzyme immunoassay, respectively. iNOS, COX-2, phospho-p65, phospho-IκBα, phospho-IKKα, phospho-p38, phospho-MK2, phosopho-MKK3/6 and TRAF-6 were determined by western blot analysis. NF-κB activity was also investigated using a reporter gene assay in HEK293 cells. LPS-induced microglia ROS production was tested using the DCFDA method, while HO-1 and Nrf2 activation was determined with western blot.Results
Tiliroside significantly suppressed TNFα, IL-6, nitrite and PGE2 production, as well as iNOS and COX-2 protein expression from LPS + IFNγ-activated BV2 microglia. Further mechanistic studies showed that tiliroside inhibited neuroinflammation by targeting important steps in the NF-κB and p38 signalling in LPS + IFNγ-activated BV2 cells. This compound also inhibited LPS-induced TRAF-6 protein expression in BV2 cells. Antioxidant activity of tiliroside in BV2 cells was demonstrated through attenuation of LPS + IFNγ-induced ROS production and activation of HO-1/Nrf2 antioxidant system.Conclusions
Tiliroside inhibits neuroinflammation in BV2 microglia through a mechanism involving TRAF-6-mediated activation of NF-κB and p38 MAPK signalling pathways. These activities are possibly due, in part, to the antioxidant property of this compound.General Significance
Tiliroside is a potential novel natural compound for inhibiting neuroinflammation in neurodegenerative disorders. 相似文献19.
Objectives
δ-opioid receptor (DOR) activation reduced brain ischemic infarction and attenuated neurological deficits, while DOR inhibition aggravated the ischemic damage. The underlying mechanisms are, however, not well understood yet. In this work, we asked if DOR activation protects the brain against ischemic injury through a brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) -TrkB pathway.Methods
We exposed adult male Sprague-Dawley rats to focal cerebral ischemia, which was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). DOR agonist TAN-67 (60 nmol), antagonist Naltrindole (100 nmol) or artificial cerebral spinal fluid was injected into the lateral cerebroventricle 30 min before MCAO. Besides the detection of ischemic injury, the expression of BDNF, full-length and truncated TrkB, total CREB, p-CREB, p-ATF and CD11b was detected by Western blot and fluorescence immunostaining.Results
DOR activation with TAN-67 significantly reduced the ischemic volume and largely reversed the decrease in full-length TrkB protein expression in the ischemic cortex and striatum without any appreciable change in cerebral blood flow, while the DOR antagonist Naltrindole aggregated the ischemic injury. However, the level of BDNF remained unchanged in the cortex, striatum and hippocampus at 24 hours after MCAO and did not change in response to DOR activation or inhibition. MCAO decreased both total CREB and pCREB in the striatum, but not in the cortex, while DOR inhibition promoted a further decrease in total and phosphorylated CREB in the striatum and decreased pATF-1 expression in the cortex. In addition, MCAO increased C11b expression in the cortex, striatum and hippocampus, and DOR activation specifically attenuated the ischemic increase in the cortex but not in the striatum and hippocampus.Conclusions
DOR activation rescues TrkB signaling by reversing ischemia/reperfusion induced decrease in the full-length TrkB receptor and reduces brain injury in ischemia/reperfusion 相似文献20.
