Effect of large dose hyperbaric oxygenation therapy on prognosis and oxidative stress of acute permanent cerebral ischemic stroke in rats

Abstract Background: Effective amelioration of neuronal damages in the case of cerebral ischemic stroke (CIS) is essential for the protection of brain tissues and their functional recovery. However, most drugs can not penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB), resulting in the poor therapeutic outcomes. Results: In this study, the derivatization and dual targeted delivery technologies were used to actively transport antioxidant melatonin (MLT) into the mitochondria of oxidative stress-damaged cells in brain tissues. A mitochondrial targeting molecule triphenylphosphine (TPP) was conjugated to melatonin (TPP-MLT) to increase the distribution of melatonin in intracellular mitochondria with the push of mitochondrial transmembrane potential. Then, TPP-MLT was encapsulated in dual targeted micelles mediated by TGN peptide (TGNYKALHPHNG) with high affinity for BBB and SHp peptide (CLEVSRKNG) for the glutamate receptor of oxidative stress-damaged neural cells.TGN/SHp/TPP-MLT micelles could effectively scavenge the overproduced ROS to protect neuronal cells from oxidative stress injury during CIS occurrence, as reflected by the improved infarct volume and neurological deficit in CIS model animals.Conclusions: These promising results showed this stepwise-targeting drug-loaded micelles potentially represent a significant advancement in the precise treatment of CIS.

Hypoxia Reoxygenation

Cardiovascular disease including cerebral ischemic stroke is the major complication that increases the morbidity and mortality in patients with diabetes mellitus as much as four times. It has been well established that irisin, with its ability to regulate glucose and lipid homeostasis as well as anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic properties, has been widely examined for its therapeutic potentials in managing metabolic disorders. However, the mechanism of irisin in the regulation of cerebral ischemic stroke remains unclear. Using PC12 cells as a model, we have shown that hypoxia/reoxygenation inhibits cell viability and increases lactic dehydrogenase. Irisin, in a dose-dependent manner, reversed these changes. The increase in inflammatory mediators (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) by hypoxia/reoxygenation was reversed by irisin. Furthermore, the cell apoptosis promoted by hypoxia/reoxygenation was also inhibited by irisin. Irisin suppressed TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway leading to amelioration of inflammation and apoptosis in PC12 cells. Thus, inhibition of TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway via irisin could be an important mechanism in the regulation of hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced inflammation and apoptosis in PC12 cells.

And Oxidative Stress

Background: Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury involves complex biological processes and molecular mechanisms such as autophagy. Oxidative stress plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of I/R injury. LncRNAs are the regulatory factor of cerebral I/R injury. Methods: This study constructs cerebral I/R model to investigate role of autophagy and oxidative stress in cerebral I/R injury and the underline regulatory mechanism of SIRT1/ FOXO3a pathway. In this study, lncRNA SNHG12 and FOXO3a expression was up-regulated and SIRT1 expression was down-regulated in HT22 cells of I/R model. Results: Overexpression of lncRNA SNHG12 significantly increased the cell viability and inhibited cerebral ischemicreperfusion injury induced by I/Rthrough inhibition of autophagy. In addition, the transfected p-SIRT1 significantly suppressed the release of LDH and SOD compared with cells co-transfected with SIRT1 and FOXO3a group and cells induced by I/R and transfected with p-SNHG12 group and overexpression of cells co-transfected with SIRT1 and FOXO3 further decreased the I/R induced release of ROS and MDA. Conclusion: In conclusion, lncRNA SNHG12 increased cell activity and inhibited oxidative stress through inhibition of SIRT1/FOXO3a signaling-mediated autophagy in HT22 cells of I/R model. This study might provide new potential therapeutic targets for further investigating the mechanisms in cerebral I/R injury and provide.
