Abstract
Poststroke depression (PSD) does not exist before and occurs after the stroke. PSD can appear shortly after the onset of stroke or be observed in the weeks and months after the acute or subacute phase of stroke. The pathogenesis of PSD is unclear, resulting in poor treatment effects. With research advancement, immunoactive cells in the central nervous system, particularly microglia, play a role in the occurrence and development of PSD. Microglia affects the homeostasis of the central nervous system through various factors, leading to the occurrence of depression. The research progress of microglia in PSD has been summarized to review the evidence regarding the pathogenesis and treatment target of PSD in the future.

Central Noradrenergic Agonists in the Treatment of Ischemic Stroke-an Overview. Transl Stroke Res 2019; 11:165-184.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality with a significant health burden worldwide and few treatment options. Among the short- and long-term effects of ischemic stroke is the cardiovascular sympathetic autonomic dysfunction, presented in part as the by-product of the ischemic damage to the noradrenergic centers of the brain. Unlike high levels in the plasma, the brain may face suboptimal levels of norepinephrine (NE), with adverse effects on the clinical and functional outcomes of ischemic stroke. The intravenous administration of NE and other sympathomimetic agents, in an attempt to increase cerebral perfusion pressure, often aggravates the ischemia-induced rise in blood pressure (BP) with life-threatening consequences for stroke patients, the majority of whom present with hypertension at the time of admission. Unlike the systemic administration, the central administration of NE reduces BP while exerting anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. These characteristics of centrally administered NE, combined with the short latency of response, make it an ideal candidate for use in the acute phase of stroke, followed by the use of centrally acting noradrenergic agonists, such as NE reuptake inhibitors and B2-adrenergic receptor agonists for stroke rehabilitation. In addition, a number of nonpharmacological strategies, such as transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) and trigeminal nerve stimulation (TNS), have the potential to enhance the central noradrenergic functional activities and improve stroke clinical outcomes. Many factors could influence the efficacy of the noradrenergic treatment in stroke patients. These factors include the type of the noradrenergic agent; the dose, frequency, and duration of administration; the timing of administration in relation to the acute event; and the site and characteristics of the ischemic lesions. Having this knowledge, combined with the better understanding of the regulation of noradrenergic receptors in different parts of the brain, would pave the path for the successful use of the centrally acting noradrenergic agents in the management of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Brain tissue injury is often accompanied by spreading depolarization (SD) events, marked by widespread cellular depolarization and cessation of neuronal firing. SD recruits viable tissue into the lesion, making it a focus for intervention. During SD, drastic fluctuations occur in ion gradients, extracellular neurotransmitter concentrations, cellular metabolism, and cerebral blood flow. Measuring SD requires a multimodal approach to capture the array of changes. However, the use of multiple sensors can inflict tissue damage. Here, we use carbon-fiber microelectrodes to characterize several aspects of SD with a single, minimally invasive sensor in the deep brain region of the nucleus accumbens. Fast-scan cyclic voltammetry detects large changes in oxygen, which reflect the balance between cerebral blood flow and energy consumption, and also supraphysiological release of electroactive neurotransmitters (i.e., dopamine). We verify waves of SD with concurrent single-unit or DC potential electrophysiological recordings. The single-unit recordings reveal bursts of action potentials followed by inactivity. The DC potentials exhibit a slow negative voltage shift in the extracellular space indicative of wide-spread cellular depolarization. Here, we characterize the multiple modalities of our sensor and demonstrate its utility for improved SD recordings.

Abstract
Dopamine, a major neurotransmitter, plays a role in a wide range of brain sensorimotor functions. Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia are two major human neuropsychiatric disorders typically associated with dysfunctional dopamine activity levels, which can be alleviated through the druggability of the dopaminergic systems. Meanwhile, several studies suggest that optimal brain dopamine activity levels are also significantly impacted in other serious neurological conditions, notably stroke, but this has yet to be fully appreciated at both basic and clinical research levels. This is of utmost importance as there is a need for better treatments to improve recovery from stroke. Here, we discuss the state of knowledge regarding the modulation of dopaminergic systems following stroke, and the use of dopamine boosting therapies in animal stroke models to improve stroke recovery. Indeed, studies in animals and humans show stroke leads to changes in dopamine functioning. Moreover, evidence from animal stroke models suggests stimulation of dopamine receptors may be a promising therapeutic approach for enhancing motor recovery from stroke. With respect to the latter, we discuss the evidence for several possible receptor-linked mechanisms by which improved motor recovery may be mediated. One avenue of particular promise is the subtype-selective stimulation of dopamine receptors in conjunction with physical therapy. However, results from clinical trials so far have been more mixed due to a number of potential reasons including, targeting of the wrong patient populations and use of drugs which modulate a wide array of receptors. Notwithstanding these issues, it is hoped that future research endeavors will assist in the development of more refined dopaminergic therapeutic approaches to enhance stroke recovery.

Abstract
Incubation of rat striatal slices in anoxic medium caused significant alterations in dopamine (DA) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) outputs; while DA release increased several times, 50% decline in DOPAC output was observed under this condition. Tissue ATP level, on the other hand, was decreased 40% by anoxia. Presence of resveratrol in the medium decreased anoxia-induced DA release in a concentration-dependent manner. Enhanced DA output, however, was declined slightly by epicatechine and catechine, and not altered significantly by morin hydrate and quercetin dehydrate which are other penolic compounds present in the red wine. In contrary to DA output, anoxia-induced decline in tissue ATP level was not ameliorated by resveratrol. In addition to anoxia, resveratrol, as observed with DA uptake blocker nomifensine, also reduced DA release stimulated by ouabain. Efficiencies of both resveratrol and nomifensine to attenuate ouabain-induced DA output, however, were closely dependent on ouabain concentration in the medium. These results indicate that some phenolic compounds, particularly resveratrol decrease anoxia-induced DA output and appear promising agents to improve the alterations occurred under anoxic-ischemic conditions.

Abstract
Endogenous striatal dopamine (DA) overflow has been associated with neuropathological conditions resulting from ischemia, psychostimulants, and metabolic inhibition. Malonate, a reversible inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase, models the effects of energy impairment in neurodegenerative disorders. We have previously reported that the striatal DA efflux and damage to DA nerve terminals resulting from intrastriatal malonate infusions is prevented by prior DA depletion, suggesting that DA plays a role in the neuronal damage. We presently report that the malonate-induced DA efflux is partially mediated by reverse transport of DA from the cytosol to the extracellular space via the DA transporter (DAT). Pharmacological blockade of the DAT with a series of structurally different inhibitors [cocaine, mazindol, 1-(2-(bis(4-fluophenyl methoxy) ethyl)-4-(3-(4-fluorophenyl)-propyl)piperazine) dimethane sulfonate (GBR 13098) and methyl(-)-3beta-(p-fluorophenyl)-1alphaH,5alphaH-tropane-2beta-carboxylate1,5-naphthalene (Win 35,428)] attenuated malonate-induced DA overflow in vivo and protected mice against subsequent damage to DA nerve terminals. Consistent with these findings, the DAT inhibitors prevented malonate-induced damage to DA neurons in mesencephalic cultures and also protected against the loss of GABA neurons in this system. The DAT inhibitors did not modify malonate-induced formation of reactive oxygen species or lactate production, indicating that the DAT inhibitors neither exert antioxidant effects nor interfere with the actions of malonate. Taken together, these findings provide direct evidence that mitochondrial impairment and metabolic stress cause striatal DA efflux via the DAT and suggest that disruptions in DA homeostasis resulting from energy impairment may contribute to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Stroke contributes significantly to death, disability, and healthcare costs; however, recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is the only approved thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic stroke. One area of development for new ischemic stroke treatment options is focused on neuroprotection of viable tissue in the ischemic vascular bed. The ischemic penumbra is recognizable on MRI by decreased perfusion, in contrast to the core area of ischemia, which includes diffusion and perfusion abnormalities. Understanding the mechanisms of neuronal death, including the role of excitotoxic neurotransmitters, free radical production, and apoptotic pathways, is important in developing new therapies for stroke. This article reviews these causes and results of stroke, as well as current and future neuroprotective treatment options. Several compounds have shown neuroprotective effects in animal studies, but have failed to be effective in human clinical trials. Several promising therapeutic areas include targeting of free radicals, modulation of glutamatergic transmission, and membrane stabilization via ion channels.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemia results in a rapid depletion of energy stores that triggers a complex cascade of cellular events such as cellular depolarization and Ca2+ influx, resulting in excitotoxic cell death. The critical determinant of severity of brain injury is the duration and severity of the ischemic insult and early restoration of CBF. Induced therapeutic hypothermia following CA is the only strategy that has demonstrated improvement in outcomes in prospective, randomized clinical trials. Although pharmacologic neuro-protection has been disappointing thus far in a variety of experimental animal models, further research efforts are directed at using some agents that demonstrate marginal or moderate efficacy in combination with hypothermia. Although the signal transduction pathways and intracellular molecular events during cerebral ischemia and reperfusion are complex, potential therapeutic neuroprotective strategies hold promise for the future.

Abstract
This article provides an update about catecholamine metabolism, with emphasis on correcting common misconceptions relevant to catecholamine systems in health and disease. Importantly, most metabolism of catecholamines takes place within the same cells where the amines are synthesized. This mainly occurs secondary to leakage of catecholamines from vesicular stores into the cytoplasm. These stores exist in a highly dynamic equilibrium, with passive outward leakage counterbalanced by inward active transport controlled by vesicular monoamine transporters. In catecholaminergic neurons, the presence of monoamine oxidase leads to formation of reactive catecholaldehydes. Production of these toxic aldehydes depends on the dynamics of vesicular-axoplasmic monoamine exchange and enzyme-catalyzed conversion to nontoxic acids or alcohols. In sympathetic nerves, the aldehyde produced from norepinephrine is converted to 3,4-dihydroxyphenylglycol, not 3,4-dihydroxymandelic acid. Subsequent extraneuronal O-methylation consequently leads to production of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol, not vanillylmandelic acid. Vanillylmandelic acid is instead formed in the liver by oxidation of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol catalyzed by alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenases. Compared to intraneuronal deamination, extraneuronal O-methylation of norepinephrine and epinephrine to metanephrines represent minor pathways of metabolism. The single largest source of metanephrines is the adrenal medulla. Similarly, pheochromocytoma tumor cells produce large amounts of metanephrines from catecholamines leaking from stores. Thus, these metabolites are particularly useful for detecting pheochromocytomas. The large contribution of intraneuronal deamination to catecholamine turnover, and dependence of this on the vesicular-axoplasmic monoamine exchange process, helps explain how synthesis, release, metabolism, turnover, and stores of catecholamines are regulated in a coordinated fashion during stress and in disease states.

Abstract
The in vivo signaling of ischemic neuroprotection provided by sigma-receptor ligands remains unclear. Catecholamines have been implicated in the propagation of ischemic neuronal injury, and previous in vitro studies suggest that sigma ligands modulate dopaminergic neurotransmission. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that the potent sigma(1)-receptor ligand 4-phenyl-1-(4-phenylbutyl) piperidine (PPBP) attenuates the increase of extracellular dopamine in ischemic striatum. Under controlled physiological conditions, a microdialysis probe was implanted in right caudoputamen (CP) complex of adult male Wistar rats. Rats were subjected to 2 h of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) by the intraluminal suture technique. In a blinded, randomized fashion, rats were divided into five treatment groups: Group 1 (n = 8; saline-saline) continuous i.v. infusion of saline vehicle 30 min before MCAO followed by saline at reperfusion until the end of the experiment; Group 2 (n = 8; PPBP-PPBP) i.v. PPBP 30 min before MCAO followed by 1 micromol x kg(-1) x h(-1) of PPBP; Group 3 (n = 8; saline-PPBP) i.v. saline before MCAO followed by PPBP; Group 4 (n = 4) surgical shams (saline-saline); and Group 5 (n = 4) surgical shams (PPBP-PPBP). Infarction volume at 22 h of reperfusion in the CP complex (percentage of ipsilateral structure) was significantly attenuated in rats treated with PPBP-PPBP (27.3% +/- 9.1%) and saline-PPBP (27.8% +/- 12.7%) compared with saline-saline (59.3% +/- 7.3%) treatment. There was a three- to fourfold increase in dopamine concentrations in the microdialysates within 40 min of the onset of MCAO. Dopamine and its metabolites dihydroxy phenylacetic acid and homovallinic acid levels were similar among the three groups subjected to MCAO. Therefore, PPBP provides significant ischemic neuroprotection in the CP complex without altering the acute accumulation of dopamine in vivo during transient focal ischemia in the rat.

Abstract
Defects in mitochondrial energy metabolism have been implicated in the pathology of several neurodegenerative disorders. In addition, the reactive metabolites generated from the metabolism and oxidation of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) are thought to contribute to the damage to neurons of the basal ganglia. We have previously demonstrated that infusions of the metabolic inhibitor malonate into the striata of mice or rats produce degeneration of DA nerve terminals. In the present studies, we demonstrate that an intrastriatal infusion of malonate induces a substantial increase in DA efflux in awake, behaving mice as measured by in vivo microdialysis. Furthermore, pretreatment of mice with tetrabenazine (TBZ) or the TBZ analogue Ro 4-1284 (Ro-4), compounds that reversibly inhibit the vesicular storage of DA, attenuates the malonate-induced DA efflux as well as the damage to DA nerve terminals. Consistent with these findings, the damage to both DA and GABA neurons in mesencephalic cultures by malonate exposure was attenuated by pretreatment with TBZ or Ro-4. Treatment with these compounds did not affect the formation of free radicals or the inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation resulting from malonate exposure alone. Our data suggest that DA plays an important role in the neurotoxicity produced by malonate. These findings provide direct evidence that inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase causes an increase in extracellular DA levels and indicate that bioenergetic defects may contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic neurodegenerative diseases through a mechanism involving DA.

Abstract
The contribution of glutamatergic and dopaminergic mechanisms to bladder hyperactivity after left middle cerebral artery occlusion was evaluated by determining the effects of intravenous cumulative doses of an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamatergic antagonist (MK-801) and D1-selective (Sch-23390), D2-selective (sulpiride), or nonselective (haloperidol) dopaminergic antagonists on bladder activity in sham-operated (SO) and cerebral-infarcted (CI) rats. MK-801 (1 and 10 mg/kg) or sulpiride (3-30 mg/kg) significantly increased bladder capacity (BC) in CI but decreased or had no effect, respectively, on BC in SO. Sch-23390 (0.1-3 mg/kg) decreased BC in both SO and CI. In both CI and SO, low doses of haloperidol (0.1-1 mg/kg) increased BC, but a higher dose (3 mg/kg) reversed this effect. Administration of haloperidol (0.3 mg/kg) or sulpiride (10 mg/kg) in combination with MK-801 (0.01-10 mg/kg) markedly increased BC in CI but produced small decreases or increases in BC depending on the dose of MK-801 in SO. These results indicate that the bladder hyperactivity induced by cerebral infarction is mediated in part by NMDA glutamatergic and D2 dopaminergic excitatory mechanisms.

Abstract
Incubation of rat striatal slices in the absence of oxygen (anoxia), glucose (aglycemia), or oxygen plus glucose (ischemia) caused significant increases in dopamine (DA) release. Whereas anoxia decreased extracellular 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid levels by 50%, aglycemia doubled it, and ischemia returned this aglycemia-induced enhancement to its control level. Although nomifensine, a DA uptake blocker, completely protected the slices against anoxia-induced DA depletion, aglycemia- and ischemia-induced increases were not altered. Moreover, hypothermia differentially affected DA release stimulated by anoxia, aglycemia, and ischemia. Involvement of glutamate in DA release induced by each experimental condition was tested by using MK-801 and also by comparing the glutamate-induced DA release with that during anoxia, aglycemia, or ischemia. MK-801 decreased the anoxia-induced DA depletion in a dose-dependent manner. This treatment, however, showed a partial protection in aglycemic conditions but failed to improve ischemia-induced DA depletion. Like anoxia, DA release induced by exogenous glutamate was also sensitive to nomifensine and hypothermia. These results indicate that anoxia enhances DA release by a mechanism involving both the reversed DA transporter and endogenous glutamate. Partial or complete lack of effect of nomifensine, hypothermia, or MK-801 in the absence of glucose or oxygen plus glucose also suggests that experimental conditions, such as the degree of anoxia/ischemia, may alter the mechanism(s) involved in DA depletion.

Abstract
Massive striatal dopamine release during cerebral ischaemia has been implicated in the resulting neuronal damage. Sodium influx is an early event in the biochemical cascade during ischaemia and blockade of sodium channels may increase resistance to ischaemia by reducing energy demand involved in compensation for sodium and potassium fluxes. In this study, we have determined the effects of opening and blockade of voltage-gated sodium channels on hypoxia/hypoglycaemia-induced dopamine release. Slices of rat caudate nucleus were maintained in a slice chamber superfused by an oxygenated artificial cerebrospinal fluid containing 4 mM glucose. Ischaemia (hypoxia/hypoglycaemia) was mimicked by a switch to a deoxygenated artificial cerebrospinal fluid containing 2 mM glucose and dopamine release was measured using fast cyclic voltammetry. In drug-free (control) slices, there was a 2-3 min delay after the onset of hypoxia/hypoglycaemia followed by a rapid dopamine release event which was associated with anoxic depolarization. In slices treated with the Na+ channel opener, veratridine (1 microM), the time to onset of dopamine release was shortened (101 +/- 20 s, compared with 171 +/- 8 s in controls, P < 0.05). Conversely, phenytoin (100 microM), lignocaine (200 microM) and the highly selective sodium channel blocker, tetrodotoxin (1 microM) markedly delayed and slowed dopamine release vs paired controls. In the majority of cases, dopamine release was biphasic after sodium channel blockade: a slow phase preceded a more rapid dopamine release event. The latter was associated with anoxic depolarization. Neither the fast nor the slow release events were affected by pretreatment with the selective dopamine uptake blocker GBR 12935 (0.2 microM), suggesting that uptake carrier reversal did not contribute to these events. In conclusion, sodium channel antagonism delays and slows hypoxia/hypoglycaemia-induced dopamine release in vitro. Furthermore, sodium channel blockade delays anoxic depolarization and its associated neurotransmitter release, revealing an earlier dopamine release event that does not result from reversal of the uptake carrier.

Abstract
A 10-min period of bilateral carotid occlusion (BCO)-induced forebrain ischemia in gerbils triggers a delayed retrograde degeneration of 35-40% of dopaminergic nigrostriatal (NS) neurons. The mechanism of the NS degeneration is believed to involve oxygen radical formation secondary to a postischemic increase in dopamine turnover (monoamine oxidase, MAO). If the oxygen radical increase is sufficiently severe, lipid peroxidative injury to the striatal NS terminals is followed by retrograde degeneration of the NS cell bodies. In the present study, we examined whether the novel brain-penetrating lipid antioxidant pyrrolopyrimidine, U-101033E, and its aromatized analog, U-104067F, could attenuate dopaminergic neurodegeneration in this model. Male Mongolian gerbils were dosed with U-101033E (1.5, 5, or 15 mg/kg, by mouth, twice daily) or U-104067F (5 or 15 mg/kg, by mouth, twice daily) for 27 days beginning on the day of the 10-min ischemic insult. Preservation of NS neurons was assessed by tyrosine hydroxylase immunohistochemistry at 28 days. In vehicle (40% hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin)-treated animals, there was a 42% loss of NS neurons. In contrast, gerbils that received 5 or 15 mg/kg U-101033E twice daily had only a 23% or 28% loss of NS neurons, respectively (P < 0.002 vs. vehicle). U-104067F showed little effect at sparing neurons at the 10 mg/kg dose, but did significantly attenuate neuronal loss to only 20% at the 30 mg/kg dose (P < 0.01 vs. vehicle). The results show that both the pyrrolopyrimidines (U-101033E and U-104067F) significantly attenuate the postischemic loss of NS dopaminergic neurons and further support the involvement of a dopamine metabolism-derived, oxygen radical-induced lipid peroxidative mechanism.

Abstract
Calcium influx and transmitter efflux are central events in the neuropathological cascade that occurs during and following cerebral ischaemia. This study explored the role of voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) in ischaemia-induced striatal dopamine (DA) release in vitro. Slices (350 microm thickness) of rat neostriatum were superfused (400 ml/h) with an artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) at 34 degrees C and subjected to episodes of 'ischaemia' by reduction of the glucose concentration from 4 to 2 mM and gassing with 95% N2/5% CO2. DA release was monitored with fast cyclic voltammetry at implanted carbon fibre microelectrodes. The time to onset, time to peak, rate and magnitude of DA release were measured. Non-selective blockade of VGCCs with a high concentration of Ni2+ (2.5 mM), markedly delayed (P < 0.01) and slowed (P < 0.05) DA release but preferential blockade of T-type VGCCs with a lower concentration (200 microM) had no effect. DA release was also unaffected by selective antagonism of L-type VGCCs with nimodipine and nicardipine (10 microM each). Selective blockade of N-type VGCCs with omega-conotoxin GVIA (100 nM) delayed DA release (P < 0.05) but did not affect its rate or magnitude. Blockade of P- and possibly Q-type VGCCs with omega-agatoxin IVA (up to 200 nM) both delayed (P < 0.05) and slowed (P < 0.05) DA release. Preferential blockade of P- type VGCCs with neomycin (500 microM) also delayed (P < 0.05) and slowed (P < 0.05) DA release. These findings suggest that N-, P- and possibly Q- but not L- or T-type VGCCs mediate ischaemia-induced DA release. Although it is not possible to say, on the basis of these results, that the effects are directly upon the dopamine terminals, these calcium channels nevertheless constitute promising targets for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
We have examined the neuroprotective efficacy of the selective dopamine (DA) D2/D3 receptor agonist pramipexole in two models of nigrostriatal (NS) degeneration. The first involves the delayed (28-day) postischemic retrograde NS degeneration that takes place in gerbils following a 10-min episode of bilateral carotid arterial occlusion-induced forebrain ischemia. In vehicle (40% hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin)-treated male gerbils, there was a 40-45% loss of NS cell bodies in the pars compacta and pars reticulata (TH immunohistochemistry and Cresyl violet histochemistry) by 28 days after ischemia/reperfusion. Daily postischemic oral dosing (1 mg/kg p.o., b.i.d., beginning at 1 h after insult) decreased the 28-day postischemic loss of NS DA neurons by 36% (P < 0.01 vs. vehicle-treated). The effect was specific for dopamine neurons since no significant salvage of hippocampal CA1 neurons was observed. In a second model, pramipexole's effects were examined on methamphetamine-induced (10 mg/kg, i.p. X 4, each 2 h apart) NS degeneration in male Swiss-Webster mice. In vehicle-treated mice, there was a 40% loss of NS neurons by day 5. In contrast, pramipexole dosing (1 mg/kg, p.o., 1 h after the last methamphetamine dose, plus daily) attenuated the NS degeneration from 40% to only 8% (P < 0.00001 vs. vehicle). We postulated that pramipexole acts in both of these models to reduce the elevated DA turnover and the associated elevation in hydroxyl radical production secondary to increased MAO activity that could be responsible for oxidative damage to the NS neurons. Indeed, in the gerbil ischemia model, we documented by HPLC-ECD a 135% postreperfusion increase in DA turnover (DOPAC + HVA/DA) at 5 min after reperfusion. Pramipexole at the 1 mg/kg, p.o., dose level was able to significantly reduce the increased DA turnover, but by only 16%. Thus, it is conceivable that other mechanisms may also contribute to pramipexole's dopaminergic neuroprotection. Based on a preliminary examination of pramipexole's oxidation potential, it appears that the compound may possess significant intrinsic antioxidant properties that might contribute to its neuroprotective effects.

Abstract
We examined in 5-day-old rats the effects of either anoxia or 8% hypoxia on extracellular monoamines such as dopamine (DA), 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), homovanillic acid (HVA), norepinephrine (NE), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (5-HIAA) using in vivo microdialysis and subsequent HPLC. After stabilization 64 animals were exposed to 100% nitrogen for 16 min and 40 animals to 8% oxygen for 128 min. Both anoxia and hypoxia produced acute increase in the striatal extracellular DA (anoxia: P < 0.001, hypoxia: P < 0.01). Especially in anoxia, DA levels increased transiently to 2000-times the basal levels and 6-times higher than those in hypoxia. NE also increased in both anoxia and hypoxia. DOPAC and HVA decreased during hypoxia (P < 0.01 and P < 0.001, respectively), while those in anoxia were unchanged. In anoxia, decrease tendency of their levels were in short duration and that of 5-HIAA was followed by gradual increase (P < 0.001). These data demonstrated that brief exposure to anoxia or hypoxia had significant influence on striatal monoamine metabolism in immature brain and the pattern of change of monoamine in anoxia was different from that in hypoxia.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) is released in large quantities from the striatum during cerebral ischemia. Along with excitatory neurotransmitters, DA plays a role in cellular neuronal ischemic injury. In this study we examined the role of nitric oxide (NO) in the ischemia-induced release of DA. A microdialysis probe was stereotactically placed into the corpus striatum of 16 Sprague-Dawley rats for DA, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), and homovanillic acid (HVA) level determinations. After probe stabilization, the animals received either NG-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester (L-NAME), a NO synthase inhibitor, or vehicle through the microdialysis probe. Temporary global forebrain ischemia was induced using bilateral carotid artery ligature tightening and controlled hemorrhagic hypotension for 15 min. L-NAME administration caused a reduction in ischemic estimated extraneuronal DA concentration by 60% (P < 0.005) compared with control. There was an increase in both DOPAC and HVA concentrations during the recovery period compared to baseline values in the control group (P < 0.05). L-NAME also caused a reduction in HVA concentration compared to vehicle administration during the latter part of recovery (P < 0.05). These data support the concept that ischemic dopamine release may be mediated by NO. This NO-modulated DA release may contribute to the previously reported deleterious neurotoxic effects of NO during ischemia.

Abstract
The hippocampus is among those brain regions which are selectively vulnerable to ischemic damage. Hippocampal damage due to transient cerebral ischemia is mainly of the delayed, non-necrotic type which may arise after disruption or activation of specific cellular systems, including transmitter release through excitatory amino acid receptors. We investigated the contribution of L-type voltage dependent calcium channels (VDCCs) to glycine (GLY) potentiated N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor- and potassium-stimulated [3H]norepinephrine (NE) release in a canine model of global cerebral ischemia and reperfusion. Tissue was collected from four experimental groups: non-arrested controls (NA), global cerebral ischemia induced by 10 minute cardiac arrest (CA), and CA followed by 30 min or 24 hours reperfusion after restoration of spontaneous circulation. Brain slices prepared from all groups accumulated approximately equivalent amounts of [3H]NE. The sensitivity of [3H]NE release to stimulation by NMDA/GLY or elevated potassium was unchanged after ischemia and reperfusion. About 30% of release stimulated by the addition of 20 mM potassium was inhibited by the NMDA receptor-operated channel antagonist MK801 in all groups except CA in which only 4% of release was inhibited by MK801. The ability of 1 microM nitrendipine (NTP) to block stimulated release indicated that the contribution of the L-type VDCC to potassium or NMDA/GLY-stimulated release was significant only in NA and 24 hour reperfused animals.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Neurotransmitter release during cerebral ischemia has been extensively studied and is thought to play a key role in excitotoxic neuronal death. The changes in neurotransmitter release and its metabolism may reflect changes in cellular metabolism during ischemia. The purpose of this study is to assess alterations in extracellular dopamine and serotonin and their metabolites under varied degrees of ischemia in rat striatum to elucidate the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia. Twenty rats were used to induce varied forebrain ischemia by means of bilateral common carotid artery occlusion along with hemorrhagic hypotension. Cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the striatum was measured every 40 minutes by methods of hydrogen clearance and maintained within certain ranges for 6 hours. Dopamine, serotonin, and their metabolites were measured every 20 minutes by in vivo microdialysis. Varying degrees of ischemia were obtained, ranging from 9.4 to 81.3% of control CBF. The animals were divided into three groups according to CBF levels measured 20 minutes after the induction of ischemia. In the mild ischemia group (n = 5), CBF ranged from 65 to 88% of baseline levels and resulted in only a slight increase of dopamine. In the moderate ischemia group (n = 10), CBF ranged from 21 to 48% of baseline levels and resulted in transient increases of dopamine (24-fold) and serotonin (5-fold). In the severe ischemia group (n = 5), CBF was below 14% of baseline levels and resulted in marked increases in dopamine (462-fold) and serotonin (225-fold). These alterations remained elevated for 3 hours.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Striatal microdialysis was performed in rats exposed to carbon monoxide (CO). Extracellular changes of dopamine, serotonin, and their metabolites were monitored before and after CO exposure at 15-min intervals by HPLC analysis. After CO exposure, extracellular dopamine increased (3.8 times that of baseline), whereas 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA) decreased (by 20-25% of baseline). The decrease in HVA at individual time points, however, was not significant. After a transient increment of the dopamine, it was cleared from the extracellular fluid within 45 min and reached a stable level. Serotonin and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) showed a pattern different to that of dopamine and its acid metabolites, i.e., the changes in extracellular levels were small. Pretreatment with dizocilpine (MK-801), a noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, 45 min before CO exposure antagonized the changes in the extracellular concentration of DOPAC. However, the change in dopamine levels was not antagonized by pretreatment with MK-801. MK-801 itself had no effect on the levels of monoamines. Therefore, NMDA receptors may not have an important role for regulating striatal dopamine neurons in hypoxic condition.

Abstract
The cerebral dialysis technique was employed to monitor extracellular concentrations of dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), and homovanillic acid (HVA) in the dorsal hippocampus of gerbils before and after cerebral ischemia induced by carotid artery occlusion. Extracellular concentrations of DA and NE in the dorsal hippocampus increased from baseline levels of less than 35 fmol/collection interval to 180 and 200 fmol/collection, respectively, within 36 minutes following carotid artery ligation (n = 8 animals). Extracellular concentrations of the DA metabolites, DOPAC and HVA, did not change significantly following carotid artery ligation. These data demonstrate that ischemia in the dorsal hippocampus is associated with a mared release of DA and NE. This release may contribute to the selective vulnerability of the dorsal hippocampus to neuronal damage during ischemia.

Abstract
The effects of 20-min transient, global, forebrain ischaemia and cardiac arrest on extracellular concentrations of dopamine (DA), serotonin (5-HT), and their respective metabolites, homovanillic acid (HVA) and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), were measured in vivo by dialysis of rat striatum and hippocampus. During the ischaemic period, striatal DA content increased (250-fold basal concentrations) with parallel but much less marked increases of both striatal and hippocampal 5-HT content (eight- to 10-fold). Baseline values were restored during reperfusion. Subsequent increases of DA and 5-HT levels on cardiac arrest were comparable after both sham operation and ischaemia. Significant decreases of HVA and 5-HIAA levels were observed following ischaemia or cardiac arrest. The differential effects of ischaemia on DA and 5-HT suggest selective alterations in disposition or metabolism of the two transmitters and that dopaminergic neurones may be more vulnerable to ischaemic insults.

Abstract
We examined whether pentobarbital (PB) inhibited the acute extracellular release of dopamine that occurs in the striatum following the onset of ischemic injury in the gerbil model of stroke. The cerebral dialysis technique was employed to monitor striatal extracellular dopamine concentrations before and after carotid artery occlusion while perfusing either a control solution of artificial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or a 1 mM solution of pentobarbital in CSF (PB/CSF). During perfusion with CSF, extracellular dopamine increased from a baseline concentration of 0.40 +/- 0.09 (SEM) pmoles/10 minute collection interval to 30.0 +/- 9.0 pmoles/10 minutes after carotid artery occlusion. In contrast, during perfusion with PB/CSF, dopamine levels increased from a baseline of 1.37 +/- 0.3 pmoles/10 minutes to 8.30 +/- 2.6 pmoles/10 minutes; this increase was significantly less than the increase in controls. In animals with established ischemia, repeatedly alternating the perfusion fluid between CSF and PB/CSF demonstrated that dopamine concentrations were significantly increased with CSF alone and decreased with PB/CSF. These findings demonstrate that pentobarbital perfusion either before or following the onset of ischemia inhibits extracellular release of dopamine in the striatum. Inhibition of neurotransmitter release may, in part, be responsible for the protective effect of pentobarbital in ischemic brain injury.

Abstract
Microdialysis probes were inserted bilaterally into the striatum of 7-day-old rat pups (n = 30) to examine extracellular fluid levels of dopamine, its metabolites 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA), and the serotonin metabolite 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA). The dialysis samples were assayed by HPLC with electrochemical detection. Baseline levels, measured after a 2-h stabilization period, were as follows: dopamine, not detected; DOPAC, 617 +/- 33 fmol/min; HVA, 974 +/- 42 fmol/min; and 5-HIAA, 276 +/- 15 fmol/min. After a 40-min baseline sampling period, 12 animals were exposed to 8% oxygen for 120 min. Hypoxia produced marked reductions in the striatal extracellular fluid levels of both dopamine metabolites (p less than 0.001 by analysis of variance) and a more gradual and less prominent reduction in 5-HIAA levels (p less than 0.02 by analysis of variance), compared with controls (n = 12) sampled in room air. In the first hour after hypoxia, DOPAC and HVA levels rose quickly, whereas 5-HIAA levels remained suppressed. The magnitude of depolarization-evoked release of dopamine (elicited by infusion of potassium or veratrine through the microdialysis probes for 20 min) was evaluated in control and hypoxic animals. Depolarization-evoked dopamine efflux was considerably higher in hypoxic pups than in controls: hypoxic (n = 7), 257 +/- 32 fmol/min; control (n = 12), 75 +/- 14 fmol/min (p less than 0.001 by analysis of variance). These data demonstrate that a brief exposure to moderate hypoxia markedly disrupts striatal catecholamine metabolism in the immature rodent brain.

Abstract
Unilateral ligation of the left common carotid artery in anesthetized Mongolian gerbils resulted in a steep rise in extracellular dopamine in the ipsilateral striatum in 9 out of 19 animals. Extracellular dopamine was measured by cerebral dialysis in vivo and reached a peak of 0.19 mM at 40 min. At the same time, the level of homovanillic acid fell, whereas the levels of ascorbate and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid remained relatively constant. In a separate group of animals studied with a combined dialysis/electrochemistry probe, a rise in the in vivo chronoamperometric signal in three out of six animals correlated with a rise in extracellular dopamine. The number of animals responding in these experiments (roughly 50%) corresponds to the frequency of incompetent Circle of Willis, as well as literature reports of the frequency of signs of stroke in unanesthetized gerbils. These results show a remarkable accumulation of dopamine in extracellular fluid in response to cerebral ischemia. Released dopamine appears to be responsible for the elevated in vivo electrochemical signal previously reported.

Abstract
Infusion of the dopamine neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine, unilaterally into the substantia nigra of rats, resulted in a unilateral depletion of dopamine in the ipsilateral striatum. When these rats were subjected to global forebrain ischemia by the four-vessel occlusion technique, there was a significant protection of the dopamine depleted striatum from the ischemia-induced loss of medium sized neurons seen in the intact striatum. These results imply a role for dopamine in ischemia-induced striatal cell death.

Abstract
Twenty-one patients with acute brain infarction, 8 with transient ischemic attack and 20 controls were investigated for lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) monoamine metabolites and cholinesterases. The diseased patients were lumbar punctured on 2 occasions, mean Days 1 (0-3) and 5 (3-9) after debut of symptoms. Monoamine concentrations were determined by reverse phase liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection and the cholinergic enzymes were measured photometrically. Increased concentrations of 3-methoxytyramine (3-MT), homovanillic acid (HVA), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HI-AA) and increased activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) in lumbar cerebrospinal fluid was found in patients with acute brain infarction when compared to control values, while the levels of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG) were not altered. No change of any neurotransmitter metabolite concentration/enzyme activity were found between Day 1 and Day 5 in the diseased patients. These data suggest an increased release of these neurotransmitter markers from necrotic brain areas into the cerebrospinal fluid and/or altered barriers between blood, brain and CSF and/or a dysfunction of the arachnoid villi to clear substances from the CSF. We therefore concluded that CSF neurotransmitters may be useful as specific brain markers in acute stroke.

Abstract
The potassium-stimulated release of acetylcholine (ACh), glutamate (GLU) and dopamine (DA) from mouse striatal slices was studied during anoxia and/or 3,4-diaminopyridine (DAP) treatment. Anoxia, in the presence of calcium, increased DA and GLU release, but depressed ACh release. Omission of calcium from an anoxic incubation further stimulated GLU and DA release and impaired ACh release. Under normoxic conditions, DAP (100 microM) increased the release of all three neurotransmitters; the sensitivity of the slices to DAP changed with the presence or absence of an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor in the preincubation media. During an anoxic incubation, DAP did not ameliorate the anoxic-induced, K+-stimulated impairment of ACh release, but significantly reduced the K+-stimulated release of GLU and DA. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that hypoxia induces a presynaptic deficit that may underlie postsynaptic ischemic-induced changes. Amelioration of these presynaptic alterations in neurotransmitter release may be an effective approach to preventing hypoxic-induced damage.

Abstract
The time course of changes in monoamine metabolism in ischemic striatum was assessed by measurement of levels of dopamine (DA), dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), homovanillic acid (HVA), serotonin (5-HT) and 5-hydroxy-indole-acetic acid (5-HIAA) 2, 4, 7 and 16 hours after irreversible unilateral carotid ligation in Mongolian gerbils with stroke. DA was reduced to 30% of the level in the contralateral non-ischemic striata by 2 hours after stroke, but DOPAC was significantly elevated (p less than 0.01) to 227%, while HVA remained equal to control. At 4 hours after stroke, DOPAC was 86% of the contralateral non-ischemic striata but HVA had risen to 130%. At 7 hours after stroke, DOPAC in the ischemic striata was 148% of control, while HVA remained at 133%. By 16 hours after stroke, DA, DOPAC and HVA were depleted from the ischemic striata, corresponding to the time course for irreversible damage to the neurotransmitter uptake function of nerve terminals. 5-HT levels in the ischemic striata were 30% of control at 2 hours, 46% at 4 hours, 30% at 7 hours and 21% at 16 hours, while 5-HIAA remained equal to control throughout the time course. These studies indicate that monoamine metabolism continues in ischemic striatum for up to 8 hours after the onset of stroke following irreversible unilateral carotid ligation in the Mongolian gerbil, but metabolism of DA is disrupted by 16 hours after stroke while metabolism of 5-HT continues.

Abstract
The effects of several concentrations of amines and reducing agents on the activity of creatine (CK) and adenylate (AK) kinases were determined in homogenates of the brain of the rat at 0 and 37 degrees C. The order of decreasing irreversible inhibition of the enzymes was peroxide, 6-hydroxydopamine, dopamine, norepinephrine, 5-hydroxytryptamine. At 37 degrees C, approx. 50% of the activity of creatine kinase was lost in 30 min in the presence of 20 microM dopamine. 5-Hydroxytryptamine was several orders of magnitude less toxic. The action of dopamine was not prevented by inhibition of monoamine oxidase, chelation of metals or the addition of a catalase, indicating that formation of peroxide by monoamine oxidase was not the primary cause of the loss of enzyme. Although auto-oxidation of dopamine to a toxic quinone was considered, the degree of inhibition of creatine kinase was not affected when auto-oxidation was prevented under anaerobic conditions. Glutathione (GSH), present during the incubation, protected the enzymes but could not restore activity after exposure to amine. Concentrations of glutathione above 5 mM and of oxidized glutathione as low as 10 microM inhibited creatine kinase. Ascorbate protected the enzymes even when present at a concentration much less than that of the amine, but ascorbate was itself toxic. The findings indicate that dopamine, at concentrations attained after drug-induced release or ischemia, can be toxic to a metabolic enzyme present in the synaptosomal membrane.

Abstract
The effects of cerebral ischemia, induced for 10 min by bilateral common carotid ligation in the Mongolian gerbil, on the brain and synaptosomal content of phospholipids and free fatty acids were measured. Moreover, the incorporation of arachidonic acid and oleoyl-CoA into phospholipids, as well as the respiration and the accumulation of 45Ca, norepinephrine, dopamine, choline, glutamate, and gamma-aminobutyrate in the ischemic brain synaptosomal fraction were studied. Analyses of lipids showed a drop in phospholipids content with concomitant increase of lysocompounds and free fatty acids in ischemic cerebral cortex. Disturbances in lipid metabolism including rapid phospholipids hydrolysis and changes in the incorporation of arachidonic acid into inositol and choline phosphoglycerides were also shown in the synaptosomal fraction of ischemic brain. The uptake of neurotransmitter substances, expressed as a percent of control value, was reduced 21% for norepinephrine, 40% for dopamine, 20% for choline, 24% for glutamate and 13% for gamma-aminobutyrate in ischemic synaptosomes. There was no significant effect of ischemia on synaptosomal respiration and 45Ca uptake in both control and high potassium media. The inhibition of neurotransmitter uptake in ischemic brain synaptosomes may be caused by the disturbance of fatty acid metabolism.
