The Impact

Background: Stroke associated with pre-existing diabetes worsens ischemic injury and impairs recovery. We have previously shown that type-2-diabetic rats subjected to cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury develop hemorrhagic transformation (HT) and greater neurological deficits. These diabetic rats also exhibit enhanced dysfunctional cerebral neovascularization that increases the risk of bleeding post-stroke. However, our knowledge of vascular and functional plasticity during the recovery phase of diabetic stroke is limited. This study tested the hypothesis that post-stroke neovascularization is impaired in diabetes and this is associated with poor sensorimotor and cognitive outcomes. Methods: Reparative neovascularization was assessed in the lesional and non-lesional areas in diabetic rats after 14 days of ischemic reperfusion injury. 3-dimensional reconstruction of the FITC stained vasculature were obtained by confocal microscopy and stereological parameters including vascular volume and surface area were measured. Astrogliosis was also determined by GFAP staining. The relative rates of sensorimotor recovery, cognitive decline and spontaneous activity were assessed. Results: Diabetes impairs reparative neovascularization in the lesional areas compared to control rats. Astroglial swelling and reactivity was pronounced in diabetic stroke compared to control stroke. Rate of sensorimotor recovery was significantly slower in diabetic stroke compared to the controls. Diabetes also exacerbated anxiety-like symptoms and cognitive decline post-stroke relative to control. Conclusion: Diabetes impairs post-stroke reparative neovascularization and impedes functional recovery. The impact of glycemic control on poor recovery in this critical period needs to be tested.

Renal Ischemic Reperfusion Injury

Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is a central component of many acute inflammatory processes. Blocking IL-1 receptor (IL-1R) with IL-1R antagonist (IL-1Ra) has attenuated ischemic reperfusion injury in brain, heart, and liver models. However, the role of IL-1 in renal ischemic reperfusion injury (IRI) is not known. Therefore, the role of IL-1 in renal IRI was evaluated using the complementary approaches of IL-1R blockade in wild-type mice in addition to the study of renal IRI in IL-1R knockout (KO) mice. Ischemia was induced by bilateral renal pedicle clamping for 30 min. IL-1Ra was administered at 10 mg/kg every 4 h, high doses that have been protective in previous organ injury models in mice. IL-1R KO animals, previously characterized as insensitive to IL-1, had the absence of IL-1R1 confirmed by DNA blots. IL-1Ra, IL-1R KO, and control groups had similar elevations of blood urea nitrogen (114 +/- 13, 133 +/- 11, and 120 +/- 11 mg/dl) and serum creatinine (1.7 +/- 0.3, 2.1 +/- 0.2, and 1.6 +/- 0.3 mg/dl) 24 h after ischemia. Furthermore, acute tubular necrosis scores were also similar in IL-1Ra-treated mice (3.0 +/- 0.3), IL-1R KO mice (2.7 +/- 0.3), and control mice (3.1 +/- 0.2). However, both IL-1Ra and IL-1R KO groups, compared with control animals, developed significantly less infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes per 10 high-power fields in postischemic renal tissue (1111 +/- 228 and 967 +/- 198 versus 1820 +/- 190, P < 0.05). In contrast to the comparable renal functions at 24 h, recovery of renal function was significantly accelerated in the IL-1R KO group compared with control at both 48 (P < 0.05) and 72 (P < 0.05) h. Recovery in the IL-1Ra group was similar to that in the control animals. These data demonstrate that IL-1 is unlikely to be beneficial in the recovery of renal function after ischemia and may play a deleterious role.

Pharmacological Preconditioning

The present study was to investigate the effect of pharmacological preconditioning of total flavones of Abelmoschl Manihot (TFA) on cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury in rats. Rat cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury was induced by occluding the right middle cerebral artery (MCA). The infarct size was determined by staining with 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazalium chloride (TTC). The serum malonaldehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were measured by using spectrophotometry; Inducible NO synthase (iNOS) mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR method. The percentage of cerebral infarction volume was 28.1 ± 0.8 in the model group, while TFA or nimodipine (Nim) pretreatment 36 hours prior to the ischemic insult significantly decreased the infarction volume. Increases of serum LDH activity and MDA level were observed after ischemia/reperfusion, but these changes were inhibited in rats pretreated with either TFA (20, 40, 80, 160 mg/kg) or Nim, indicating a delayed protective effect of TFA preconditioning on cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury. In addition, the serum NO level and the cerebral iNOS mRNA were up-regulated, suggesting a possible mechanism for the protective effect of TFA pretreatment on cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury.
