Apoptosis And Inflammation

In acute stroke, neuronal apoptosis and inflammation are considered to be important mechanisms on the road to tissue loss and neurological deficit. Both apoptosis and inflammation depend on gene transcription. We have identified a signalling pathway that regulates transcription of genes involved in apoptosis and inflammation. In a mouse model of focal cerebral ischaemia, there is an induction of the cytokine TWEAK (tumour necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis) and its membrane receptor Fn14. TWEAK promotes neuronal cell death and activates the transcription factor NF-κB (nuclear factor κB) through the upstream kinase IKK [IκB (inhibitory κB) kinase]. In vivo, IKK is activated in neurons. Neuron-specific deletion of the subunit IKK2 or inhibition of IKK activity reduced the infarct size and neuronal cell loss. A pharmacological inhibitor of IKK also showed neuroprotective properties. IKK-dependent ischaemic brain damage is likely to be mediated by NF-κB, because neuron-specific inhibition of NF-κB through transgenic expression of the NF-κB superrepressor was found to reduce the infarct size. In summary, there is evidence that IKK/NF-κB signalling contributes to ischaemic brain damage and may provide suitable drug targets for the treatment of stroke.

Natural Tolerance

Progression of acute ischaemic brain damage is complex and multifactorial. Also, evidence suggests that participating molecules and signal transduction pathways can function differently in different cellular contexts. Hibernation torpor, a model of natural tolerance to profoundly reduced blood flow and oxygen delivery to brain, along with models of induced ischaemic tolerance can guide efforts to identify cytoprotective mechanisms that are multifactorial and that target multiple mechanisms in multiple cellular contexts. Post-translational modification of proteins by conjugation with the SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier) is massively increased in hibernation and may be such a mechanism.
