Planas AM. Role of microglia in stroke. Glia 2024; 72:1016-1053. [PMID: 38173414 DOI: 10.1002/glia.24501] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
Microglia play key roles in the post-ischemic inflammatory response and damaged tissue removal reacting rapidly to the disturbances caused by ischemia and working to restore the lost homeostasis. However, the modified environment, encompassing ionic imbalances, disruption of crucial neuron-microglia interactions, spreading depolarization, and generation of danger signals from necrotic neurons, induce morphological and phenotypic shifts in microglia. This leads them to adopt a proinflammatory profile and heighten their phagocytic activity. From day three post-ischemia, macrophages infiltrate the necrotic core while microglia amass at the periphery. Further, inflammation prompts a metabolic shift favoring glycolysis, the pentose-phosphate shunt, and lipid synthesis. These shifts, combined with phagocytic lipid intake, drive lipid droplet biogenesis, fuel anabolism, and enable microglia proliferation. Proliferating microglia release trophic factors contributing to protection and repair. However, some microglia accumulate lipids persistently and transform into dysfunctional and potentially harmful foam cells. Studies also showed microglia that either display impaired apoptotic cell clearance, or eliminate synapses, viable neurons, or endothelial cells. Yet, it will be essential to elucidate the viability of engulfed cells, the features of the local environment, the extent of tissue damage, and the temporal sequence. Ischemia provides a rich variety of region- and injury-dependent stimuli for microglia, evolving with time and generating distinct microglia phenotypes including those exhibiting proinflammatory or dysfunctional traits and others showing pro-repair features. Accurate profiling of microglia phenotypes, alongside with a more precise understanding of the associated post-ischemic tissue conditions, is a necessary step to serve as the potential foundation for focused interventions in human stroke.

LXA4 protected mice from renal ischemia/reperfusion injury by promoting IRG1/Nrf2 and IRAK-M-TRAF6 signal pathways. Clin Immunol 2024; 261:110167. [PMID: 38453127 DOI: 10.1016/j.clim.2024.110167] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
Excessive inflammatory response and increased oxidative stress play an essential role in the pathophysiology of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced acute kidney injury (IRI-AKI). Emerging evidence suggests that lipoxin A4 (LXA4), as an endogenous negative regulator in inflammation, can ameliorate several I/R injuries. However, the mechanisms and effects of LXA4 on IRI-AKI remain unknown. In this study, A bilateral renal I/R mouse model was used to evaluate the role of LXA4 in wild-type, IRG1 knockout, and IRAK-M knockout mice. Our results showed that LXA4, as well as 5-LOX and ALXR, were quickly induced, and subsequently decreased by renal I/R. LXA4 pretreatment improved renal I/R-induced renal function impairment and renal damage and inhibited inflammatory responses and oxidative stresses in mice kidneys. Notably, LXA4 inhibited I/R-induced the activation of TLR4 signal pathway including decreased phosphorylation of TAK1, p36, and p65, but did not affect TLR4 and p-IRAK-1. The analysis of transcriptomic sequencing data and immunoblotting suggested that innate immune signal molecules interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-M (IRAK-M) and immunoresponsive gene 1 (IRG1) might be the key targets of LXA4. Further, the knockout of IRG1 or IRAK-M abolished the beneficial effects of LXA4 on IRI-AKI. In addition, IRG1 deficiency reversed the up-regulation of IRAK-M by LXA4, while IRAK-M knockout had no impact on the IRG1 expression, indicating that IRAK-M is a downstream molecule of IRG1. Mechanistically, we found that LXA4-promoted IRG1-itaconate not only enhanced Nrf2 activation and increased HO-1 and NQO1, but also upregulated IRAK-M, which interacted with TRAF6 by competing with IRAK-1, resulting in deactivation of TLR4 downstream signal in IRI-AKI. These data suggested that LXA4 protected against IRI-AKI via promoting IRG1/Itaconate-Nrf2 and IRAK-M-TRAF6 signaling pathways, providing the rationale for a novel strategy for preventing and treating IRI-AKI.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 319:117211. [PMID: 37739100 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117211] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2023] [Revised: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/24/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Portulaca oleracea L. (PO), popularly known as purslane, has been documented in ethnopharmacology in various countries and regions. Traditional application records indicated that PO might be used extensively to treat the common cold, dysentery, urinary tract infections, coughing, eye infections, skin problems, gynecological diseases, and pediatric illnesses. AIM OF THE REVIEW This paper includes a systematic review of the traditional usage, phytochemicals, pharmacological activity, and potential uses of PO to provide an overview of the research for further exploitation of PO resources. MATERIALS AND METHODS This article uses "Portulaca oleracea L." and "purslane" as the keywords and collects relevant information on PO from different databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Springer, Science Direct, ACS, Wiley, CNKI, Baidu Scholar, Google Scholar, and ancient meteria medica. RESULTS PO is a member of the Portulacaceae family and is grown worldwide. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that purslane has the effect of improving eyesight, eliminating evil qi, quenching thirst, purgation, diuresis, hemostasis, regulating qi, promoting hair growth, detoxifying, and avoiding epidemic qi. Recent phytochemical investigations have shown that PO is a rich source of flavonoids, homoisoflavonoids, alkaloids, organic acids, esters, lignans, terpenoids, catecholamines, sterols, and cerebrosides. The purslane extracts or compounds have exhibited numerous biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, antioxidant, anticancer, renoprotective, hepatoprotective, gastroprotective, metabolic, muscle relaxant, anti-asthmatic and anti-osteoporosis properties. The significant omega-3 fatty acids, vital amino acids, minerals, and vitamins found in purslane also provide nutritional benefits. Purslane as a food/feed additive in the food industry and animal husbandry has caused concern. Its global wide distribution and tolerance to abiotic stress characteristics make it in the future sustainable development of agriculture a certain position. CONCLUSIONS Based on traditional usage, phytochemicals, and pharmacological activity, PO is a potential medicinal and edible plant with diverse pharmacological effects. Due to purslane's various advantages, it may have vast application potential in the food and pharmaceutical industries and animal husbandry.

[PMID: 38169195 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2023.117754] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 3 (IRAK3) may modulate inflammation in brain immunity. We determined the prognostic role of serum IRAK3 in severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). METHODS In this prospective longitudinal cohort study, serum IRAK3 concentrations of 131 sTBI patients and 131 controls were quantified. Extended Glasgow outcome scale (GOSE) scores of 1-4 at 180 days after trauma signified a poor prognosis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were sequentially adopted to appraise severity correlations and prognosis associations. RESULTS There were significantly higher serum IRAK3 concentrations in patients than in controls. Serum IRAK3 concentrations of patients were independently correlated with Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores, Rotterdam computed tomography (CT) scores and posttraumatic180-day GOSE scores. Also, IRAK3 concentrations were independently associated with 180-day poor prognosis, but not with death. Prognosis prediction model, in which GCS scores, Rotterdam scores and serum IRAK3 concentrations were merged, was portrayed using the nomogram. The model was rather stable, clinically usable and efficiently discriminative of poor prognosis under calibration curve, decision curve and receiver operating characteristic curve. CONCLUSIONS A substantial enhancement of serum IRAK3 concentrations after head trauma is independently related to severity and neurological outcome, substantializing serum IRAK3 as a promising prognostic biomarker of sTBI.

Abstract
Emerging evidence has proved that inflammatory responses aggravate the pathological progression of Parkinson's disease. This study aimed to identify the role of Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-M (IRAK-M) as an important negative regulator of innate immunity, in the pathological progression of Parkinson's disease. In the present study, a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) injection was administered to prepare the acute and sub-acute Parkinson's disease mouse models. Western blot analysis was utilized to examine the protein expressions of tyrosine hydroxylase and IRAK-M. The mRNA expression levels of IRAK-M, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-β, and cyclooxygenase-2 were evaluated via using reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). The expression of tyrosine hydroxylase-positive neurons in corpus striatum and substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) tissues was detected using immunohistochemistry. The results showed that the protein and mRNA levels of IRAK-M were considerably upregulated in corpus striatum and SNc tissues in the sub-acute Parkinson's disease model. Furthermore, IRAK-M knockout significantly enhanced the MPTP-induced loss of tyrosine hydroxylase-positive fibers in corpus striatum and tyrosine hydroxylase-positive neurons in SNc, and intensified the effect of MPTP on the activation of microglial cells and the expression of inflammatory cytokines. In addition, sub-acute Parkinson's disease mice with IRAK-M deletion exhibited worse motor abilities than those of wild-type littermates. Overall, the present study suggested that IRAK-M reduces dopaminergic neuron damage in sub-acute Parkinson's disease by suppressing inflammation, which may provide a new therapeutic target for Parkinson's disease treatment.

Abstract
Background Ischemic stroke (IS) is the second leading cause of mortality worldwide, continuing to be a serious health concern. It is well known that oxidative stress and neutrophil response play vital roles in the pathophysiology of early IS. However, the complex interactions and critical genes associated with them have not been fully understood. Methods Two datasets (GSE37587 and GSE16561) from the Gene Expression Omnibus database were extracted and integrated as the discovery dataset. Subsequent GSVA and WGCNA approaches were used to investigate IS-specific oxidative stress-related genes (ISOSGS). Then, we explored IS-specific neutrophil-associated genes (ISNGS) using CIBERSORT analysis. Next, the protein-protein interaction network was established to ascertain candidate critical genes related with oxidative stress and neutrophil response. Furthermore, these candidate genes were validated using GSE58294 dataset and our clinical samples by RT-qPCR method. Finally, functional annotation, diagnostic capability evaluation and drug-gene interactions were performed by using GSEA analysis, ROC curves and DGIDB database. Result In our analysis of discovery dataset, 155 genes were determined as ISOSGS and 559 genes were defined as ISNGS. Afterward, 9 candidate genes were identified through the intersection of ISOSGS and ISNGS, PPI network construction, and filtration by degree algorithm. Then, six real critical genes, including STAT3, MMP9, AQP9, SELL, FPR1, and IRAK3, passed the validation using the GSE58294 dataset and our clinical samples. Further functional annotation analysis indicated these critical genes were associated with neutrophil response, especially neutrophil extracellular trap. Meanwhile, they had a good diagnostic performance. Lastly, 53 potential drugs targeting these genes were predicted by DGIDB database. Conclusion We identified 6 critical genes, STAT3, FPR1, AQP9, SELL, MMP9 and IRAK3, related to oxidative stress and neutrophil response in early IS, which may provide new insights into understanding the pathophysiological mechanism of IS. We hope our analysis could help develop novel diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic strategies for IS.

Abstract
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) has dual functions as a nonhistone nucleoprotein and an extracellular inflammatory cytokine. In the resting state, HMGB1 is mainly located in the nucleus and regulates key nuclear activities. After spinal cord injury, HMGB1 is rapidly expressed by neurons, microglia and ependymal cells, and it is either actively or passively released into the extracellular matrix and blood circulation; furthermore, it also participates in the pathophysiological process of spinal cord injury. HMGB1 can regulate the activation of M1 microglia, exacerbate the inflammatory response, and regulate the expression of inflammatory factors through Rage and TLR2/4, resulting in neuronal death. However, some studies have shown that HMGB1 is beneficial for the survival, regeneration and differentiation of neurons and that it promotes the recovery of motor function. This article reviews the specific timing of secretion and translocation, the release mechanism and the role of HMGB1 in spinal cord injury. Furthermore, the role and mechanism of HMGB1 in spinal cord injury and, the challenges that still need to be addressed are identified, and this work will provide a basis for future studies.

Recombinant High-Mobility Group Box 1 (rHMGB1) Promotes NRF2-Independent Mitochondrial Fusion through CXCR4/PSMB5-Mediated Drp1 Degradation in Endothelial Cells. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:9993240. [PMID: 34394840 PMCID: PMC8358426 DOI: 10.1155/2021/9993240] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2021] [Revised: 06/22/2021] [Accepted: 07/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Mitochondrial dynamics plays an important role in maintaining normal endothelial cell function and in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. It is not identified whether high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a representative damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) molecule, could influence mitochondrial dynamics in endothelial cells. The objective of this study is to clarify the effect of HMGB1 on mitochondrial dynamics in endothelial cells and the underlying mechanism. EA.hy926 human endothelial cells were incubated with recombinant HMGB1 (rHMGB1); mitochondrial morphology was observed with a confocal microscope and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The expression of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), Mitofusin 1 (Mfn1), Mitofusin 2 (Mfn2), Optic atrophy 1 (Opa1), phosphatase and tensin homolog- (PTEN-) induced kinase 1 (PINK1), NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3), caspase 1, cleaved caspase 1, 20S proteasome subunit beta 5 (PSMB5), and antioxidative master nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (NRF2) and the concentration of interleukin 1β (IL-1β) were determined. Specific inhibitors C29, TAK-242, FPS-ZM1, AMD3100, and epoxomicin were used to block toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), C-X-C-chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), and PSMB5, respectively. siRNAs were used to silence the expression of NRF2. rHMGB1 promoted mitochondrial fusion in endothelial cells, while no significant proinflammatory effects were found. The expression of mitochondrial fission protein Drp1 and phosphorylated subtypes p-Drp1-S616 and p-Drp1-S637 were all downregulated; no significant expression changes of PINK1 and Mfn1, Mfn2, and Opa1 were found. Inhibition of CXCR4 but not TLR4, RAGE, or TLR2 reversed rHMGB1-induced Drp1 downregulation and mitochondrial fusion. Interestingly, inhibition of TLR4 with TAK-242 promoted Drp1 downregulation and mitochondrial fusion. rHMGB1 increased the expression of NRF2 and PSMB5; inhibition of PSMB5 but not silencing NRF2 abolished rHMGB1-induced Drp1 downregulation and mitochondrial fusion. These results indicate that rHMGB1 promotes NRF2 independent mitochondrial fusion via CXCR4/PSMB5 pathway-mediated Drp1 proteolysis. rHMGB1 may influence mitochondrial and endothelial function through this effect on mitochondrial dynamics.

Abstract
Acute brain injury (ABI) is a broad concept mainly comprised of sudden parenchymal brain injury. Acute brain injury outcomes are dependent not only on the severity of the primary injury, but the delayed secondary injury that subsequently follows as well. These are both taken into consideration when determining the patient's prognosis. Growing clinical and experimental evidence demonstrates that "preconditioning," a prophylactic approach in which the brain is exposed to various pre-injury stressors, can induce varying degrees of "tolerance" against the impact of the ABI by modulating neuroinflammation. In this review, we will summarize the pathophysiology of ABI, and discuss the involved mechanisms of neuroinflammation in ABI, as well as existing experimental and clinical studies demonstrating the efficacy of preconditioning methods in various types of ABI by modulating neuroinflammation.

BACKGROUND Lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI) is a complex pathophysiological process that can lead to poor patient outcomes. Inflammasome-dependent macrophage pyroptosis contributes to organ damage caused by ischemia/reperfusion injury. Oxidative stress and antioxidant enzymes also play an important role in LIRI. In this study, we conducted experiments to investigate whether and how preconditioning with rHMGB1 could ameliorate LIRI in a mouse model. METHODS Adult male BALB/c mice were anesthetized, the left hilus pulmonis was clamped, and reperfusion was performed. rHMGB1 was administered via intraperitoneal injection before anesthesia, and brusatol was given intraperitoneally every other day before surgery. We measured pathohistological lung tissue damage, wet/dry mass ratios of pulmonary tissue, and levels of inflammatory mediators to assess the extent of lung injury. Alveolar macrophage pyroptosis was evaluated by measuring release of lactate dehydrogenase, caspase-1 expression was assessed using flow cytometry, and gasdermin-D expression was analyzed using immunofluorescent staining. Levels of oxidative stress markers and antioxidant enzymes were also analyzed. RESULTS Preconditioning with rHMGB1 significantly ameliorated lung injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion, based on measurements of morphology, wet/dry mass ratios, as well as expression of IL-1β, IL-6, NF-κB, and HMGB1 in lung tissues. It also alleviated alveolar macrophage pyroptosis, reduced oxidative stress and restored the activity of antioxidant enzymes. These beneficial effects were mediated at least in part by the Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, since they were reversed by the pathway inhibitor brusatol. CONCLUSIONS Preconditioning with rHMGB1 may protect against LIRI by suppressing alveolar macrophage pyroptosis. This appears to involve reduction of oxidative stress and promotion of antioxidant enzyme activity via the Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Abstract
High-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) is a crucial proinflammatory cytokine that contributes to acute lung injury (ALI). Macrophages are known to express the primary receptors (Toll-like receptor [TLR] 2, and TLR4) of HMGB1 for transmitting intracellular signals. Studies have revealed that double-stranded RNA activated protein kinase R (PKR), which is expressed in macrophages, participates in ALI by regulating macrophage polarization and proinflammatory cytokine release, and that PKR is normally activated by a subset of TLRs. The present study investigated whether HMGB1 engages in ALI by activating PKR in macrophages and inducing classically activated macrophage (M1) polarization via TLR2- and TLR4-mediated nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling pathways. In an vivo mouse model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI, anti-HMGB1, rHMGB1, LPS-RS (TLR2 and TLR4 antagonist), or C16 (PKR inhibitor) was administered to mice 2 h after LPS challenge or 1 h before LPS challenge. In vitro, bone marrow-derived macrophages from mice primed with LPS were stimulated with or without anti-HMGB1, rHMGB1, LPS-RS, or C16. Our studies revealed that rHMGB1 stimulation induced M1 polarization in ALI, and that anti-HMGB1 and C16 treatments had the opposite effect. Anti-HMGB1 and LPS-RS significantly inhibited LPS-induced PKR expression in macrophages; however, rHMGB1 administration increased PKR expression. These results indicate that HMGB1 participates in the pathogenesis of ALI by activating PKR in macrophages and inducing M1 polarization through TLR2- and TLR4-mediated NF-κB signaling pathways.

Abstract
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a crucial proinflammatory cytokine, was reported to activate the absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) inflammasome, which are both essential in acute lung injury (ALI). However, their interaction mechanism has remained elusive. Macrophages are known to express the AIM2 inflammasome and the main receptors [receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), Toll‑like receptor 2/4 (TLR‑2/TLR‑4)] of HMGB1 to transmit intracellular signals. The present study aimed to indicate whether HMGB1 participates in the process of lipopolysaccharides (LPS)‑induced ALI through activating the AIM2 inflammasome in macrophages, as well as inducing polarization of M1 macrophages via TLR2, TLR4 and RAGE/ nuclear factor‑κB (NF‑κB) signaling pathways. In an in vivo mouse model of LPS‑induced ALI, anti‑HMGB1, recombinant (r)HMGB1, LPS from Rhodobacter sphaeroides (LPS‑RS, TLR2/4 antagonist) or FPS‑ZM1 (RAGE antagonist) were administrated. In in vitro studies, bone marrow‑derived macrophages from mice primed with LPS were stimulated with or without anti‑HMGB1, rHMGB1, LPS‑RS, or FPS‑ZM1. The findings revealed that anti‑HMGB1, LPS‑RS and FPS‑ZM1 significantly decreased infiltration of inflammatory cells, wet‑to‑dry ratio, myeloperoxidase activity in the lung, the levels of cytokines, as well as macrophages and neutrophil infiltration in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. However, rHMGB1 aggravated the inflammatory response in ALI. Mechanistically, anti‑HMGB1, LPS‑RS and FPS‑ZM1 attenuated activation of TLR2, TLR4, and RAGE/NF‑κB signaling pathways and expression of the AIM2 inflammasome in macrophages. However, rHMGB1 enhanced their expression levels and induced polarization of M1 macrophages. These results indicated that HMGB1 could participate in the pathogenesis of ALI by activating the AIM2 inflammasome in macrophages, as well as inducing polarization of M1 macrophages through TLR2, TLR4 and RAGE/NF‑κB signaling pathways.

Abstract
Trained immunity and immune tolerance have been identified as long-term response patterns of the innate immune system. The causes of these opposing reactions remain elusive. Here, we report about differential inflammatory responses of microglial cells derived from neonatal mouse brain to increasing doses of the endotoxin LPS. Prolonged priming with ultra-low LPS doses provokes trained immunity, i.e., increased production of pro-inflammatory mediators in comparison to the unprimed control. In contrast, priming with high doses of LPS induces immune tolerance, implying decreased production of inflammatory mediators and pronounced release of anti-inflammatory cytokines. Investigation of the signaling processes and cell functions involved in these memory-like immune responses reveals the essential role of phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ), one of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase species highly expressed in innate immune cells. Together, our data suggest profound influence of preceding contacts with pathogens on the immune response of microglia. The impact of these interactions—trained immunity or immune tolerance—appears to be shaped by pathogen dose.

Abstract
Background: Innate immune response to neuronal death is one of the key events of the pathogenesis of ischemic brain injury. Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK)-M, encoded by gene Irak3, negatively regulates toll-like receptor signaling by interacting with the MyD88–IRAK-4–IRAK-1 complex and blocking the phosphorylation and dissociation of IRAK-1. Its function in the ischemic stroke is unknown. Objective: This study aims to investigate whether IRAK-M deficiency could exacerbate neuroinflammation and neurovascular injuries during cerebral ischemia and reperfusion. Methods: Male C57BL/6 mice and Irak3 knockout mice were subjected to 45 min of middle cerebral artery occlusion and 4 or 24 h of reperfusion. Transcription of Irak3 gene was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Then, infarct volume, neurological score, brain water content, and Evans blue leakage were compared between knock-out and wild-type mice after reperfusion. Through the observation of gross brain specimen after cerebral ischemia, the incidence of hemorrhage transformation was compared between KO and WT mice. To explore underlying signaling pathways involved in IRAK-M deficiency, major proinflammatory cytokines and NF-κB signaling were measured by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Results: The expression of IRAK-M peaked at 1 h after reperfusion, and then gradually decreased within the first 24 h, which was abolished by blocking the expression of hypoxia induced factor 1α. IRAK-M deficiency increased infarct volume, brain edema, the incidence of hemorrhage transformation, and the permeability of blood–brain barrier. In addition, the NF-κB-mediated expressions of proinflammatory cytokines and the activation of microglia in the ipsilateral brain from knock-out mice were much higher than those in wild-type littermates. Conclusion: IRAK-M deletion exacerbates neurovascular damages which are related to the pronounced activation of NF-κB signaling and neuroinflammatory responses during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in mice. Our study indicates that IRAK-M has neuroprotective effect and has potential to facilitate the development of new pharmaceuticals that reduce neurovascular complications.

Abstract
Innate immune receptors, well known mediators of response to non-self-molecules and inflammation, also act as mediators of immunity triggered by 'damage-associated molecular patterns' (DAMPs). Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) cause inflammation in mammals and a rapid immune response in plants, while DAMPs trigger more complex responses, including immunity, tissue maintenance and repair. DAMPs, their receptors and downstream transduction mechanisms are often conserved within a kingdom or, due to convergent evolution, are similar across the kingdoms of life. Herein, we describe the dynamics and functionality of specific extracellular DAMP classes and their receptors in immunity, inflammation and repair of tissue damage in plants and mammals.

Abstract
Background: Toll-like receptors play an integral role in the process of inflammatory response after ischemic in-jury. The therapeutic potential acting on TLRs is worth of evaluations. The aim of this review was to introduce readers some potential medications or compounds which could alleviate the ischemic damage via TLRs. Methods: Research articles online on TLRs were reviewed. Categorizations were listed according to the follows, methods acting on TLRs directly, modulations of MyD88 or TRIF signaling pathway, and the ischemic tolerance induced by the pre-conditioning or postconditioning with TLR ligands or minor cerebral ischemia via acting on TLRs. Results: There are only a few studies concerning on direct effects. Anti-TLR4 or anti-TLR2 therapies may serve as promis-ing strategies in acute events. Approaches targeting on inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway and enhancing interferon regu-latory factor dependent signaling have attracted great interests. Not only drugs but compounds extracted from traditional Chinese medicine have been used to identify their neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia. In addition, many re-searchers have reported the positive therapeutic effects of preconditioning with agonists of TLR2, 3, 4, 7 and 9. Several trails have also explored the potential of postconditioning, which provide a new idea in ischemic treatments. Considering all the evidence above, many drugs and new compounds may have great potential to reduce ischemic insults. Conclusion: This review will focus on promising therapies which exerting neuroprotective effects against ischemic injury by acting on TLRs.

Abstract
Ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD) and the herb medicine borneol can both facilitate the delivery of therapeutic agents to diseased brain regions and serve as promising adjuvant neuroprotective therapies. Our preliminary experiments showed that UTMD could exacerbate ischemic blood–brain barrier (BBB) opening, while borneol can protect the BBB. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that the combination of UTMD and borneol could attenuate UTMD-induced injury to the BBB under ischemic stroke conditions. Male albino mice were subjected to 60-min middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) with reperfusion. Borneol and UTMD was given to mice 3 days before and 24 h after MCAO induction. BBB permeability, brain water contents, ultrastructural changes of the BBB and histopathological alterations were evaluated. Our data demonstrated that UTMD aggravated the leakage of Evans blue dye, ultrastructural alterations of cerebral microvasculature, brain edema, and even induced cerebral hemorrhage in ischemic stroke mice. Pretreatment with borneol significantly attenuated the above detrimental effects of UTMD on the BBB. This study indicates that under ischemic stroke conditions, the BBB becomes vulnerable to UTMD intervention, and the combination of borneol can help to maintain the integrity of the BBB.

Abstract
Activated microglia can phagocytose dying, stressed, or excess neurons and synapses via the phagocytic receptor Mer tyrosine kinase (MerTK). Galectin-3 (Gal-3) can cross-link surface glycoproteins by binding galactose residues that are normally hidden below terminal sialic acid residues. Gal-3 was recently reported to opsonize cells via activating MerTK. We found that LPS-activated BV-2 microglia rapidly released Gal-3, which was blocked by calcineurin inhibitors. Gal-3 bound to MerTK on microglia and to stressed PC12 (neuron-like) cells, and it increased microglial phagocytosis of PC12 cells or primary neurons, which was blocked by inhibition of MerTK. LPS-activated microglia exhibited a sialidase activity that desialylated PC12 cells and could be inhibited by Tamiflu, a neuraminidase (sialidase) inhibitor. Sialidase treatment of PC12 cells enabled Gal-3 to bind and opsonize the live cells for phagocytosis by microglia. LPS-induced microglial phagocytosis of PC12 was prevented by small interfering RNA knockdown of Gal-3 in microglia, lactose inhibition of Gal-3 binding, inhibition of neuraminidase with Tamiflu, or inhibition of MerTK by UNC569. LPS-induced phagocytosis of primary neurons by primary microglia was also blocked by inhibition of MerTK. We conclude that activated microglia release Gal-3 and a neuraminidase that desialylates microglial and PC12 surfaces, enabling Gal-3 binding to PC12 cells and their phagocytosis via MerTK. Thus, Gal-3 acts as an opsonin of desialylated surfaces, and inflammatory loss of neurons or synapses may potentially be blocked by inhibiting neuraminidases, Gal-3, or MerTK.

Abstract
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) has been implicated as a key factor in several neuroinflammatory conditions. Our previous study suggested that the release of central HMGB1 acts as a late-phase mediator in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced depression. Recent findings indicate that the redox state of HMGB1 is a critical determinant of its immunomodulatory properties. Here, we aimed to investigate the potential mechanisms that link the redox states of HMGB1 to depression in mice. Distinct redox forms of recombinant HMGB1 (rHMGB1) were used that included fully reduced HMGB (fr-HMGB1), which acted as a chemokine, and disulfide-HMGB1 (ds-HMGB1), which possessed cytokine activity. Fr-HMGB1 in vivo was partially oxidized into ds-HMGB1; thus, the mutant protein non-oxidizable chemokine-HMGB (nonoxid-HMGB1) was applied. Concurrent with depressive behavior induced by four-week stress exposure, the HMGB1 concentrations in the serum and cerebral cortex substantially increased. Therefore, a single dose of rHMGB1 (200ng/5μl/mice) or vehicle was administered to mice via intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection. The receptor inhibitors of TLR4/RAGE/CXCR4 (TAK-242/FPS-ZM1/AMD3100) (3mg/kg) were intraperitoneally injected 30min prior to rHMGB1 treatment. Depressive-like behavior was measured 20h post i.c.v. injection. Administration of fr-HMGB1 prolonged the immobility duration in the tail suspension test (TST) and decreased sucrose preference. In addition to depressive behavior, the hippocampal TNF-α protein slightly increased. These depressive behaviors and upregulation of hippocampal TNF-α were alleviated or abrogated by pretreatment with the inhibitors AMD3100, FPS-ZM1, and TAK-242. Alternatively, nonoxid-HMGB1 failed to induce TNF-α protein or prolong the immobility duration. As expected, ds-HMGB1 administration substantially upregulated hippocampal TNF-α protein, increased the immobility time in the TST and decreased sucrose preference. Moreover, both glycyrrhizin and TAK-242 improved ds-HMGB1-induced depressive behavior. Furthermore, TAK-242 significantly blocked the upregulation of hippocampal TNF-α protein and protected hippocampal myelin basic protein from ds-HMGB1-induced reduction. These drugs had no effect on the total or central distance in the open field test. Collectively, this initial experiment demonstrates the role and receptor mechanisms of HMGB1 under different redox states on the induction of depressive-like behavior. Both ds-HMGB1 and fr-HMGB1 may induce depressive-like behavior in vivo mainly via neuroinflammatory response activation.
