Abstract The lack of effective therapy mandates development of treatment for cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI. The previous study suggested that Cyclovirobuxine D (CVBD) encapsulated in Angiopep-conjugated Polysorbate 80-Coated Liposomes showed a better brain targeting by intranasal administration. Therefore, this study focused on the protection and mechanism of CVBD brain-targeted liposomes in treating CIRI. In order to evaluate these, the CIRI rat model was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)-reperfusion. Pharmacological evaluation was assessed in vivo by general indexs, neurobehavioral scores, triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, histopathological staining (HE staining and Nissl staining), small animal magnetic resonance imaging, biochemical assay and Western blot. The results show that CVBD liposomes alleviated pathological damage of brain. Futhermore, the protective effect of CVBD liposomes on OGD/R-injured HT22 cell was investigated by cell fusion degree, cell proliferation curve and cell viability. OGD/R-injured HT22 cell was infected by mRFP-GFP-LC3 adenovirus. The autophagosome and autophagy flow were observed by laser confocal microscopy, and autophagy-related protein expressions (LC3, p62 and Beclin 1) were analyzed by Western blot. Meanwhile, the classic autophagy inhibitor, chloroquine, was used to explore the autophagy-regulated mechanism of CVBD brain-targeted liposomes in treating CIRI. In cell model of oxygen and glucose deprivation/re-oxygenation, CVBD liposomes increased cell viability and decreased ROS level. CVBD liposomes improved oxidative stress protein expressions and activated autophagy in vitro. Furthermore, CVBD liposomes reversed the decrease of cell viability, increase of ROS level, and reduction of protein expressions associated to anti-oxidative stress and autophagy induced by chloroquine. Collectively, CVBD liposomes inhibited CIRI via regulating oxidative stress and enhancing autophagy level in vivo and in vitro, showing a great potential in treating CIRI in clinic.

Cerebral Ischemia Reperfusion Injury

The mechanism of Golgi apparatus (GA) stress responses mediated by GOLPH3 has been widely studied in ischemic stroke, and the neuroprotection effect of olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem cells (OM-MSCs) against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) has been preliminarily presented. However, the exact role of OM-MSCs in the GA stress response following cerebral IRI remains to be elucidated. In the present study, we used an oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) model and reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model to simulate cerebral IRI in vitro and in vivo. Our results showed that the level of GOLPH3 protein, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and Ca2+ was upregulated, SPCA1 level was downregulated, and GA fragmentation was increased in ischemic stroke models, and OM-MSC treatment clearly ameliorated these GA stress responses in vitro and in vivo. Subsequently, the knockdown of PEDF in OM-MSCs using PEDF-specific siRNA further demonstrated that secretion of PEDF in OM-MSCs protected OGD/R-treated N2a cells and MCAO rats from GA stress response. Additionally, rescue experiment using specific pathway inhibitors suggested that OM-MSCs could promote the phosphorylation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, thereby mitigating OGD/R-induced GA stress response and excessive autophagy. In conclusion, OM-MSCs minimized the GA stress response following cerebral IRI, at least partially, through the PEDF-PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway.

To study the role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, we clarified the mechanism by which lncRNA MEG3 regulates the secretion of inflammatory cytokines in microglia through in vitro and in vivo experiments. We discovered that inhibition of MEG3 could alleviate cerebral I/R injury via inhibiting M1 polarization and promoting M2 polarization through Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4), indicating an effective theoretical basis for potential therapeutic targets of cerebral I/R injury.

Prepared Tanshinone IIA lipid microspere and evaluated its physicochemical properties in vitro and pharmacodynamics properties in vivo. Particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency, quantitative determination and stability of Tan-IIA-LM with different dilution medium were investigated respectively by Dynamic Light Scattering, HPLC and Sephadex G-50 Microcolumn, and osmotic pressure and solution pH of Tan-IIA-LM were measured to evaluate the preparation comprehensively. Further more, comparative study of protection on focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats between Tan-IIA-LM and STS was studied.The results showed that average particle size was 203nm, zeta potential was-36.10 mV, content was 0.8mg·mL-1, entrapment efficiency was 93% and the Tan-IIA-LM which was diluted by 0.9% sodium chloride injection and 5.0% glucose injection were stable within 6 hours. Tan-IIA-LM had obvious protection on focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats.
