Abstract Background This study aimed to explore the role of miR-380-5p in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (CIR) injury-induced neuronal cell death and the potential signaling pathway involved. Methodology Human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y cells were used in this study. Oxygen and glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) model was used to mimic ischemia/reperfusion injury. CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry were used to examine cell survival. Quantitative real time PCR (RT-qPCR) assay and Western blotting were used to measure the change of RNA and protein expression, respectively. TargetScan and Luciferase assay was used to confirm the target of miR-380-5p. Malondialdehyde (MDA) superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) were measured using commercial kits. Results miR-380-5p was downregulated in SH-SY5Y cells after OGD/R. Cell viability was increased by miR-380-5p, while cell apoptosis was reduced by miR-380-5p mimics. MDA was reduced by miR-380-5p mimics, while SOD and GSHPx were increased by miR-380-5p. Results of TargetScan and luciferase assay have showed that BACH1 is the direct target of miR-380-5p. Expression of NRF2 was upregulated after OGD/R, but was not affected by miR-380-5p. mRNA expression of HO-1 and NQO1 and ARE activity were increased by miR-380-5p. Overexpression of BACH1 reversed the antioxidant and neuroprotective effects of miR-380-5p. Conclusion miR-380-5p inhibited cell death induced by CIR injury through target BACH1 which also facilitated the activation of NRF2, indicating the antioxidant and neuroprotective effects of miR-380-5p.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether Gastrodin can activate the Notch 1 signaling pathway in the ischemic brain area to produce neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, and to elucidate the role of Notch 1 and NF-κB signaling pathways in the Gastrodin-induced cerebral ischemic tolerance. Material and methods: The focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion model of middle cerebral artery embolism was established. TTC staining was applied to detect cerebral infarction. Tunel/NeuN immunofluorescence double labeling was employed to detect apoptosis. WB was used to detect the expressions of proteins related to the Notch 1 and NF-κB pathways. Results: Gastrodin can reduce neuron apoptosis in hippocampus after MCAO/R injury. After DAPT blocked Notch 1 signaling, the neuroprotective effects of Gastrodin improving neural function score, reducing cerebral infarction volume, and inhibiting neuronal apoptosis, were all reversed. Compared with the MCAO/R group, DAPT blocking Notch 1 signaling can also improve the neurological score of rats after MCAO/R injury, reduce cerebral infarct volume, and reduce neuronal apoptosis. Gastrodin can activate Notch 1 and NF-κB signaling pathways in cerebral ischemic areas and increase the expression of related proteins. After DAPT inhibited the Notch 1 signaling in the ipsilateral brain region, the phosphorylation level was significantly decreased, indicating that the activity of the NF-κB pathway was regulated by the Notch 1 signaling. Conclusion: Gastrodin-mediated protection against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury is related to the activation of Notch 1 signaling and the up-regulation of NF-κB signaling pathway activity in neurons of ischemic brain area.

Numerous studies indicate a role for oxidative stress in the neuronal degeneration and cell death that occur during ischemia–reperfusion injury. Recent data suggest that inhibition of the proteasome may be a means by which oxidative stress mediates neuronal cell death. In the current study, the authors demonstrate that there is a time-dependent decrease in proteasome activity, which is not associated with decreased expression of proteasome subunits, after cerebral ischemia–reperfusion injury. To determine the role of oxidative stress in mediating proteasome inhibition, ischemia–reperfusion studies were conducted in mice that either overexpressed the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase [GPX 1(+)], or were devoid of glutathione peroxidase activity (GPX −/−). After ischemia–reperfusion, GPX 1(+) mice displayed decreased infarct size, attenuated neurologic impairment, and reduced levels of proteasome inhibition compared with either GPX −/− or wild type mice. In addition, GPX 1(+) mice displayed lower levels of 4-hydroxynonenal-modified proteasome subunits after ischemia–reperfusion injury. Together, these data indicate that proteasome inhibition occurs during cerebral ischemia–reperfusion injury and is mediated, at least in part, by oxidative stress.
