Stroke remains a major health problem worldwide, and is the leading cause of serious long-term disability. Recent findings now suggest that strategies to enhance angiogenesis after focal cerebral ischemia may provide unique opportunities to improve clinical outcomes during stroke recovery. In this mini-review, we survey emerging mechanisms and potential targets for angiogenic therapies in brain after stroke. Multiple elements may be involved, including growth factors, adhesion molecules and progenitor cells. Furthermore, cross talk between angiogenesis and neurogenesis may also provide additional substrates for plasticity and remodeling in the recovering brain. A better understanding of the molecular interplay between all these complex pathways may lead to novel therapeutic avenues for tackling this difficult disease. 相似文献

Neuronal loss is a common component of a variety of neurodegenerative disorders (including Alzheimer''s, Parkinson''s, and Huntington''s disease) and brain traumas (stroke, epilepsy, and traumatic brain injury). One brain region that commonly exhibits neuronal loss in several neurodegenerative disorders is the hippocampus, an area of the brain critical for the formation and retrieval of memories. Long-lasting and sometimes unrecoverable deficits caused by neuronal loss present a unique challenge for clinicians and for researchers who attempt to model these traumas in animals. Can these deficits be recovered, and if so, is the brain capable of regeneration following neuronal loss? To address this significant question, we utilized the innovative CaM/Tet-DTA mouse model that selectively induces neuronal ablation. We found that we are able to inflict a consistent and significant lesion to the hippocampus, resulting in hippocampally-dependent behavioral deficits and a long-lasting upregulation in neurogenesis, suggesting that this process might be a critical part of hippocampal recovery. In addition, we provide novel evidence of angiogenic and vasculature changes following hippocampal neuronal loss in CaM/Tet-DTA mice. We posit that angiogenesis may be an important factor that promotes neurogenic upregulation following hippocampal neuronal loss, and both factors, angiogenesis and neurogenesis, can contribute to the adaptive response of the brain for behavioral recovery. 相似文献

Blockade of L-type voltage-gated Ca channel inhibits ischemia-induced neurogenesis by down-regulating iNOS expression in adult mouse 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Neurogenesis in the adult mammalian hippocampus may contribute to repairing the brain after injury. The signals that regulate neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus following ischemic stroke insult are not well known. We have previously reported that inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression is necessary for ischemia-stimulated neurogenesis in the adult dentate gyrus. Here, we show that mice subjected to 90 min of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) significantly increased the number of new neurons and up-regulated iNOS expression in the dentate gyrus. Blockade of the L-type voltage-gated Ca(2+) channel (L-VGCC) prevented neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus and subventricular zone (SVZ), and down-regulated iNOS expression in the dentate gyrus after cerebral ischemia. This study suggests that Ca(2+) influx through L-VGCC is involved in ischemia-induced neurogenesis by up-regulating iNOS expression. 相似文献

Angiogenesis within an ischemic region of the brain may increase tissue viability and act to limit the extent of an infarct. The ANG II pathway can both stimulate and inhibit angiogenesis depending on the tissue and the activated receptors. Previous work showed that 2-wk losartan administration (ANG II type 1 receptor blockade) initiates a significant cerebral angiogenic response. We hypothesized that administration of losartan in the drinking water of rats for 2 wk before initiation of focal ischemia would decrease the extent of the resulting infarct. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were given losartan (50 mg/day) in drinking water for 2 wk before initiation of cerebral focal ischemia produced by cauterization of cortical surface vessels. Controls received normal drinking water. In control animals, three main vessels feeding the whisker barrel cortex were cauterized, resulting in cessation of blood flow. The same protocol was followed for losartan-treated animals but did not result in cessation of blood flow in the whisker barrel cortex. Another group of losartan-treated animals received between 8 and 14 cauterizations of surface vessels feeding the whisker barrel cortex, and cessation of blood flow was verified. Rats were killed 72 h after surgery. Morphological examination revealed angiogenesis, maintained vascular delivery, and significantly decreased infarct size in losartan-treated animals compared with controls. These results demonstrate that pretreatment with losartan reduces infarct size after cerebral focal ischemia and support the hypothesis that cerebral angiogenesis may be one of the mechanisms responsible. 相似文献

The adult mammalian brain retains the capacity for neurogenesis, by which new neurons may be generated to replace those lost through physiological or pathological processes. However, neurogenesis diminishes with aging, and this casts doubt on its feasibility as a therapeutic target for cell replacement therapy in stroke and neurodegenerative disorders, which disproportionately affect the aged brain. In previous studies, neurogenesis was stimulated by cerebral ischemia in young rodents, and the neurogenesis response of the aged rodent brain to physiological stimuli, such as hormonal manipulation and growth factors, was preserved. To investigate the effect of aging on ischemia-induced neurogenesis, transient (60 min) middle cerebral artery occlusion was induced in young adult (3-month) and aged (24-month) rats, who were also given bromodeoxyuridine to label newborn cells. As found in prior studies, basal neurogenesis in control, nonischemic rats was reduced with aging. Ischemia failed to stimulate neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus (DG) subgranular zone (SGZ), in contrast to results obtained previously after more prolonged (90-120 min) middle cerebral artery occlusion, but increased the number of BrdU-labeled cells in the forebrain subventricular zone (SVZ). This effect was less prominent in aged than in young adult rats, with fold-stimulation of BrdU incorporation reduced by approximately 20% and the total number of cells generated diminished by approximately 50%. BrdU-labeled cells in SVZ coexpressed neuronal lineage markers, consistent with newborn neurons. We conclude that ischemia-induced neurogenesis occurs in the aged brain, and that measures designed to augment this phenomenon might have therapeutic applications. 相似文献

Cerebral ischemia triggers robust phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) and CRE-mediated gene expression in neurons. Glutamate receptor activation and subsequent calcium influx may activate CREB shortly after ischemia. CREB activation leads to expression of genes encoding neuroprotective molecules, such as the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2, and contributes to survival of neurons after ischemic insult. Recent studies have suggested that CREB may be involved in acquisition of ischemic tolerance, a phenomenon that occurs after sublethal ischemic stress. CREB activation is also involved in the survival of newborn neurons in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus after ischemia. Therefore, CREB-related therapeutics may be promising for brain protection and endogenous neurogenesis and could promote functional recovery in ischemic stroke patients. This minireview summarizes our current understanding for the role of CREB in regulating CRE-mediated gene expression during cerebral ischemia. 相似文献

Vascular growth factors in cerebral ischemia 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
During the past decade, there has been a surge of interest in growth factors (GFs) that act selectively on vascular endothelium
and perivascular cells. Studies employing mutant mice or the administration of recombinant proteins have suggested that these
factors not only mediate the proliferation of endothelial cells, but also regulate vascular differentiation, regression, and
permeability. During and after cerebral ischemia, brain vasculature becomes leaky and unstable, and the normally impermeable
blood-brain barrier breaks down. Several days after the ischemic insult, endothelial cells begin to proliferate, and angiogenesis
occurs. Expression studies have shown that key vascular GFs are regulated, during these processes, in a complex and coordinated
manner. The distinct pattern of regulation exhibited by each vascular GF suggests a unique role for each factor during the
initial vascular destabilization and subsequent angiogenesis that occurs after cerebral ischemia. Data from studies in other
biological systems support these suggested roles. Thus, manipulation of vascular GFs may prove to be an effective means of
stabilizing or enriching brain vasculature after ischemia, and ameliorating the detrimental effects of blood-brain barrier
breakdown and vessel regression after stroke. 相似文献

The compensatory angiogenesis that occurs after cerebral ischemia increases blood flow to the injured area and limits extension of the ischemic penumbra. In this way, it improves the local blood supply. Fostering compensatory angiogenesis is an effective treatment for ischemic cerebrovascular disease. However, angiogenesis in the adult organism is a complex, multi-step process, and the mechanisms underlying the regulation of angiogenesis are not well understood. Although Notch signaling reportedly regulates the vascularization process that occurs in ischemic tissues, little is known about the role of Notch signaling in the regulation of ischemia-induced angiogenesis after ischemic stroke. Recent research has indicated that miR-210, a hypoxia-induced microRNA, plays a crucial role in regulating the biological processes that occur in blood vessel endothelial cells under hypoxic conditions. This study was undertaken to investigate the role of miR-210 in regulating angiogenesis in response to brain ischemia injury and the role of the Notch pathway in the body’s response. We found miR-210 to be significantly up-regulated in adult rat ischemic brain cortexes in which the expression of Notch1 signaling molecules was also increased. Hypoxic models of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVE-12) were used to assess changes in miR-210 and Notch1 expression in endothelial cells. Results were consistent with in vivo findings. To determine the molecular mechanisms behind these phenomena, we transfected HUVE-12 cells with miR-210 recombinant lentiviral vectors. We found that miR-210 overexpression caused up-regulation of Notch1 signaling molecules and induced endothelial cells to migrate and form capillary-like structures on Matrigel. These data suggest that miR-210 is involved in the regulation of angiogenesis in response to ischemic injury to the brain. Up-regulation of miR-210 can activate the Notch signaling pathway, which may contribute to angiogenesis after cerebral ischemia. 相似文献

Enhanced neurogenesis and cell migration following focal ischemia and peripheral stimulation in mice
Peripheral stimulation and physical therapy can promote neurovascular plasticity and functional recovery after CNS disorders such as ischemic stroke. Using a rodent model of whisker-barrel cortex stroke, we have previously demonstrated that whisker activity promotes angiogenesis in the penumbra of the ischemic barrel cortex. This study explored the potential of increased peripheral activity to promote neurogenesis and neural progenitor migration toward the ischemic barrel cortex. Three days after focal barrel cortex ischemia in adult mice, whiskers were manually stimulated (15 min x 3 times/day) to enhance afferent signals to the ischemic barrel cortex. 5-Bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU, i.p.) was administered once daily to label newborn cells. At 14 days after stroke, whisker stimulation significantly increased vascular endothelial growth factor and stromal-derived factor-1 expression in the penumbra. The whisker stimulation animals showed increased doublecortin (DCX) positive and DCX/BrdU-positive cells in the ipsilateral corpus of the white matter but no increase in BrdU-positive cells in the subventricular zone, suggesting a selective effect on neuroblast migration. Neurogenesis indicated by neuronal nuclear protein and BrdU double staining was also enhanced by whisker stimulation in the penumbra at 30 days after stroke. Local cerebral blood flow was better recovered in mice that received whisker stimulation. It is suggested that the enriched microenvironment created by specific peripheral stimulation increases regenerative responses in the postischemic brain and may benefit long-term functional recovery from ischemic stroke. 相似文献

Murine brain-specific angiogenesis inhibitor 1 and 2 (mBAI1, mBAI2) are involved in angiogenesis after cerebral ischemia. In this study, mBAI3 was cloned and characterized. Northern and Western blot analyses demonstrated a unique developmental expression pattern in the brain. The level of mBAI3 in brain peaked 1 day after birth, unlike mBAI1 and mBAI2, which peaked 10 days after birth. In situ hybridization analyses of the brain showed the same localization of BAI3 as BAI1 and BAI2, which includes most neurons of cerebral cortex and hippocampus. In the in vivo focal cerebral ischemia model, BAI3 expression decreased from 0.5 h after hypoxia until 8 h, but returned to control level after 24 h. The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor following ischemia showed an inverse pattern. The decreased expressions of BAIs in high-grade gliomas were observed, but BAI3 expression was generally lower in malignant gliomas than in normal brain. Our results indicate that the expression and distribution of BAI3 in normal brain, but not its developmental expression, are very similar to those of BAI1 and BAI2, and that BAI3 may participate in the early phases of ischemia-induced brain angiogenesis and in brain tumor progression. 相似文献

The human adult brain possesses intriguing plasticity, including neurogenesis and angiogenesis, which may be mediated by the activated sonic hedgehog (Shh). By employing a coculture system, brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) cocultured with astrocytes, which were incubated under oxygen–glucose deprivation (OGD) condition, we tested the hypothesis that Shh secreted by OGD-activated astrocytes promotes cerebral angiogenesis following ischemia. The results of this study demonstrated that Shh was mainly secreted by astrocytes and the secretion was significantly upregulated after OGD. The proliferation, migration, and tube formation of BMECs cocultured with astrocytes after OGD were significantly enhanced, but cyclopamine (a Shh antagonist) or 5E1 (an antibody of Shh) reversed the change. Furthermore, silencing Ras homolog gene family, member A (RhoA) of BMECs by RNAi and blocking Rho-dependent kinase (ROCK) by Y27632, a specific antagonist of ROCK, suppressed the upregulation of proliferation, migration, and tube formation of BMECs after OGD. These findings suggested that Shh derived from activated astrocytes stimulated RhoA/ROCK pathway in BMECs after OGD, which might be involved in angiogenesis in vitro. 相似文献

Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) plays a role in the generation of post-ischemic edema. Pharmacological modulation of AQP4 function may thus provide a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of stroke, tumor-associated edema, epilepsy, traumatic brain injury, and other disorders of the central nervous system (CNS) associated with altered brain water balance. Edaravone, a free radical scavenger, is used for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in Japan. In this study, edaravone significantly reduced the infarct area and improved the neurological deficit scores at 24 h after reperfusion in a rat transient focal ischemia model. Furthermore, edaravone markedly reduced AQP4 immunoreactivity and protein levels in the cerebral infarct area. In light of observations that edaravone specifically inhibited AQP4 in a rat transient focal ischemia model, we propose that edaravone might reduce cerebral edema through the inhibition of AQP4 expression following cerebral infarction. 相似文献

There is a positive relation between decreases of triiodothyronine (T3) amounts and severity of stroke. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of exogenous T3 application on levels of neurogenesis markers in the subventricular zone. Cerebral ischemia was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion in male Wistar rats. There were 4 experimental groups: sham, ischemic, vehicle, and treatment. Rats were injected with T3 (25 μg/kg, IV injection) at 24 hours after ischemia. Animals were sacrificed at day 7 after ischemia. There were high levels of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor, nestin, and Sox2 expressions in gene and protein levels in the T3 treatment group (P ≤ .05 vs ischemic group). Treatment group showed high levels of sera T3 and thyroxine (T4) but low levels of thyrotropin (TSH), tumor necrosis factor‐α, and interleukin‐6 (P ≤ .05 vs ischemic group) at day 4 after ischemia induction. Findings of this study revealed the effectiveness of exogenous T3 application in the improvement of neurogenesis possibly via regulation of proinflammatory cytokines. 相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO), a free radical with signaling functions in the CNS, is implicated in some developmental processes, including neuronal survival, precursor proliferation, and differentiation. However, neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) -derived NO and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) -derived NO play opposite role in regulating neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus after cerebral ischemia. In this study, we show that focal cerebral ischemia reduced nNOS expression and enzymatic activity in the hippocampus. Ischemia-induced cell proliferation in the dentate gyrus was augmented in the null mutant mice lacking nNOS gene (nNOS−/−) and in the rats receiving 7-nitroindazole, a selective nNOS inhibitor, after stroke. Inhibition of nNOS ameliorated ischemic injury, up-regulated iNOS expression, and enzymatic activity in the ischemic hippocampus. Inhibition of nNOS increased and iNOS inhibitor decreased cAMP response element-binding protein phosphorylation in the ipsilateral hippocampus in the late stage of stroke. Moreover, the effects of 7-nitroindazole on neurogenesis after ischemia disappeared in the null mutant mice lacking iNOS gene (iNOS−/−). These results suggest that reduced nNOS is involved in ischemia-induced hippocampal neurogenesis by up-regulating iNOS expression and cAMP response element-binding protein phosphorylation. 相似文献

Angiogenesis is positively correlated with the survival rate of stroke patients. Therefore, studying factors that initiate and promote angiogenesis after ischemic stroke is crucial for finding novel and effective treatment targets that improve the prognosis of stroke. X-box binding protein l splicing (XBP1s) plays a positive regulatory role in cell proliferation and angiogenesis. However, the role and mechanism of XBP1s on the proliferation of brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) and angiogenesis after cerebral ischemia remains unclear. In the current study, we investigated the role XBP1s plays in BMEC proliferation and angiogenesis following cerebral ischemia. In this study, the roles of XBP1s on cell survival, apoptosis, cycle migration, and angiogenesis were determined in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) treated BMECs. The expression of XBP1s in BMECs, which were exposed to OGD at 0, 2, 4, and 6 hr, increased in a time-dependent manner. The overexpression of XBP1s promoted cell survival, cell cycle, migration, and angiogenesis of BMECs, and inhibited the apoptosis in OGD-treated BMECs. In addition, the overexpression of XBP1s promoted the expression of cyclin D1, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-2), and MMP-9, but inhibited cleaved Caspase-3 and cleaved Caspase-9 expression in OGD-treated BMECs. The overexpression of XBP1s also promoted the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha, vascular endothelial growth factor, phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase, p-AKT, p-mTOR, p-GSK3β, and p-extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 in OGD-treated BMECs. The effect of XBP1s silencing was opposite to that of XBP1s overexpression. In conclusion, using an in vitro OGD model, we demonstrated that XBP1s may be a promising target for ischemic stroke therapy to maintain BMECs survival and induce angiogenesis. 相似文献

Expression and transport activity of Sodium-dependent Vitamin C Transporter 2 (SVCT2) was shown in various tissues and organs. Vitamin C was shown to be cerebroprotective in several animal models of stroke. Data on expression, localization and transport activity of SVCT2 after cerebral ischemia, however, has been scarce so far. Thus, we studied the expression of SVCT2 after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in mice by immunohistochemistry. We found an upregulation of SVCT2 after stroke. Co-stainings with Occludin, Von-Willebrand Factor and CD34 demonstrated localization of SVCT2 in brain capillary endothelial cells in the ischemic area after stroke. Time-course analyses of SVCT2 expression by immunohistochemistry and western blots showed upregulation in the subacute phase of 2-5 days. Radioactive uptake assays using (14)C-labelled ascorbic acid showed a significant increase of ascorbic acid uptake into the brain after stroke. Taken together, these results provide evidence for the expression and transport activity of SVCT2 in brain capillary endothelial cells after transient ischemia in mice. These results may lead to the development of novel neuroprotective strategies in stroke therapy. 相似文献
