Abstract
Malnutrition after stroke may lessen the beneficial effects of rehabilitation on motor recovery through influences on both brain and skeletal muscle. Enriched rehabilitation (ER), a combination of environmental enrichment and forelimb reaching practice, is used preclinically to study recovery of skilled reaching after stroke. However, the chronic food restriction typically used to motivate engagement in reaching practice is a barrier to using ER to investigate interactions between nutritional status and rehabilitation. Thus, our objectives were to determine if a modified ER program comprised of environmental enrichment and skilled reaching practice motivated by a short fast would enhance post-stroke forelimb motor recovery and preserve forelimb muscle size and metabolic fiber type, relative to a group exposed to stroke without ER. At one week after photothrombotic cortical stroke, male, Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to modified ER or standard care for 2 weeks. Forelimb recovery was assessed in the Montoya staircase and cylinder task before stroke and on days 5-6, 22-23, and 33-34 after stroke. ER failed to improve forelimb function in either task (p > 0.05). Atrophy of extensor digitorum communis (EDC) and triceps brachii long head (TBL) muscles was not evident in the stroke-targeted forelimb on day 35, but the area occupied by hybrid fibers was increased in the EDC muscle (p = 0.038). ER bilaterally increased EDC (p = 0.046), but not TBL, muscle size; EDC muscle fiber type was unchanged by ER. While the modified ER did not promote forelimb motor recovery, it does appear to have utility for studying the role of skeletal muscle plasticity in post-stroke recovery.

Abstract
Injury to the brain after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) results from numerous complex cellular mechanisms. At present, effective therapy for ICH is limited and a better understanding of the mechanisms of brain injury is necessary to improve prognosis. There is increasing evidence that ion channel dysregulation occurs at multiple stages in primary and secondary brain injury following ICH. Ion channels such as TWIK-related K+ channel 1, sulfonylurea 1 transient receptor potential melastatin 4 and glutamate-gated channels affect ion homeostasis in ICH. They in turn participate in the formation of brain edema, disruption of the blood-brain barrier, and the generation of neurotoxicity. In this review, we summarize the interaction between ions and ion channels, the effects of ion channel dysregulation, and we discuss some therapeutics based on ion-channel modulation following ICH.

Abstract
Acquired brain injuries, such as ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and traumatic brain injury (TBI), can cause severe neurologic damage and even death. Unfortunately, currently, there are no effective and safe treatments to reduce the high disability and mortality rates associated with these brain injuries. However, environmental enrichment (EE) is an emerging approach to treating and rehabilitating acquired brain injuries by promoting motor, sensory, and social stimulation. Multiple preclinical studies have shown that EE benefits functional recovery, including improved motor and cognitive function and psychological benefits mediated by complex protective signaling pathways. This article provides an overview of the enriched environment protocols used in animal models of ischemic stroke, ICH, and TBI, as well as relevant clinical studies, with a particular focus on ischemic stroke. Additionally, we explored studies of animals with stroke and TBI exposed to EE alone or in combination with multiple drugs and other rehabilitation modalities. Finally, we discuss the potential clinical applications of EE in future brain rehabilitation therapy and the molecular and cellular changes caused by EE in rodents with stroke or TBI. This article aims to advance preclinical and clinical research on EE rehabilitation therapy for acquired brain injury. © 2024 American Physiological Society. Compr Physiol 14:5291-5323, 2024.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating stroke with many mechanisms of injury. Edema worsens outcome and can lead to mortality after ICH. Glibenclamide (GLC), a sulfonylurea 1- transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (Sur1-Trpm4) channel blocker, has been shown to attenuate edema in ischemic stroke models, raising the possibility of benefit in ICH. This meta-analysis synthesizes current pre-clinical (rodent) literature regarding the efficacy of post-ICH GLC administration (vs. vehicle controls) on behaviour (i.e., neurological deficit, motor, and memory outcomes), edema, hematoma volume, and injury volume. Six studies (5 in rats and 1 in mice) were included in our meta-analysis (PROSPERO registration = CRD42021283614). GLC significantly improved behaviour (standardized mean difference (SMD) = -0.63, [-1.16, -0.09], n = 70-74) and reduced edema (SMD = -0.91, [-1.64, -0.18], n = 70), but did not affect hematoma volume (SMD = 0.0788, [-0.5631, 0.7207], n = 18-20), or injury volume (SMD = 0.2892, [-0.4950, 1.0734], n = 24). However, these results should be interpreted cautiously. Findings were conflicted with 2 negative and 4 positive reports, and Egger regressions indicated missing negative edema data (p = 0.0001), and possible missing negative behavioural data (p = 0.0766). Experimental quality assessed via the SYRCLE and CAMARADES checklists was concerning, as most studies demonstrated high risks of bias. Studies were generally low-powered (e.g., average n = 14.4 for behaviour), and future studies should employ sample sizes of 41 to detect our observed effect size in behaviour and 33 to detect our observed effect in edema. Overall, missing negative studies, low study quality, high risk of bias, and incomplete attention to key recommendations (e.g., investigating female, aged, and co-morbid animals) suggest that further high-powered confirmatory studies are needed before conclusive statements about GLC's efficacy in ICH can be made, and before further clinical trials are performed.

Abstract
Understanding the chemical events following trauma to the central nervous system could assist in identifying causative mechanisms and potential interventions to protect neural tissue. Here, we apply a partial optic nerve transection model of injury in rats and use synchrotron X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM) to perform elemental mapping of metals (K, Ca, Fe, Cu, Zn) and other related elements (P, S, Cl) in white matter tracts. The partial optic nerve injury model and spatial precision of microscopy allow us to obtain previously unattained resolution in mapping elemental changes in response to a primary injury and subsequent secondary effects. We observed significant elevation of Cu levels at multiple time points following the injury, both at the primary injury site and in neural tissue near the injury site vulnerable to secondary damage, as well as significant changes in Cl, K, P, S, and Ca. Our results suggest widespread metal dyshomeostasis in response to central nervous system trauma and that altered Cu homeostasis may be a specific secondary event in response to white matter injury. The findings highlight metal homeostasis as a potential point of intervention in limiting damage following nervous system injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The formation and degradation of an intracerebral hemorrhage causes protracted cell death, and an extended window for intervention. Experimental studies find that rehabilitation mitigates late cell death, with accelerated hematoma clearance as a potential mechanism. OBJECTIVE We assessed whether early, intense, enriched rehabilitation (ER, environmental enrichment and massed skills training) enhances functional benefit, reduces brain injury, and augments hematoma clearance. METHODS In experiment 1, rats (n = 56) were randomized to intervention in the light (-L) or dark phase (-D) of their housing cycle, then to 10 days of ER or control (CON) treatment after collagenase-induced striatal intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). ER rats were treated from 5 to 14 days after ICH. Behavior and residual hematoma volume was assessed on day 14. In experiment 2, rats (n = 72) were randomized to ER-D10, ER-D20, or CON-D. ER rats completed 10 or 20 days of training in the dark. Rats were euthanized on day 60 for histology. In both experiments, behavioral assessment was completed pre-ICH, pre-ER (day 4 post-ICH), and post-ER (experiment 1: days 13-14; experiment 2: days 16-17 and 30-31). RESULTS Reaching intensity was high but similar between ER-D10 and ER-L10. Unlike previous work, rehabilitation did not alter skilled reaching or hematoma resolution. Varying ER duration also did not affect reaching success or lesion volume. CONCLUSIONS In contrast to others, and under these conditions, our findings show that striatal ICH was generally unresponsive to rehabilitation. This highlights the difficulty of replicating and extending published work, perhaps owing to small inter-study differences.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant global health problem, for which no disease-modifying therapeutics are currently available to improve survival and outcomes. Current neuromonitoring modalities are unable to reflect the complex and changing pathophysiological processes of the acute changes that occur after TBI. Raman spectroscopy (RS) is a powerful, label-free, optical tool which can provide detailed biochemical data in vivo. A systematic review of the literature is presented of available evidence for the use of RS in TBI. Seven research studies met the inclusion/exclusion criteria with all studies being performed in pre-clinical models. None of the studies reported the in vivo application of RS, with spectral acquisition performed ex vivo and one performed in vitro. Four further studies were included that related to the use of RS in analogous brain injury models, and a further five utilised RS in ex vivo biofluid studies for diagnosis or monitoring of TBI. RS is identified as a potential means to identify injury severity and metabolic dysfunction which may hold translational value. In relation to the available evidence, the translational potentials and barriers are discussed. This systematic review supports the further translational development of RS in TBI to fully ascertain its potential for enhancing patient care.

Abstract
Objective: The accurate evaluation of outcomes at a personalized level in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is critical clinical implications. This study aims to evaluate how machine learning integrates with routine laboratory tests and electronic health records (EHRs) data to predict inpatient mortality after ICH. Methods: In this machine learning-based prognostic study, we included 1,835 consecutive patients with acute ICH between October 2010 and December 2018. The model building process incorporated five pre-implant ICH score variables (clinical features) and 13 out of 59 available routine laboratory parameters. We assessed model performance according to a range of learning metrics, such as the mean area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUROC]. We also used the Shapley additive explanation algorithm to explain the prediction model. Results: Machine learning models using laboratory data achieved AUROCs of 0.71–0.82 in a split-by-year development/testing scheme. The non-linear eXtreme Gradient Boosting model yielded the highest prediction accuracy. In the held-out validation set of development cohort, the predictive model using comprehensive clinical and laboratory parameters outperformed those using clinical alone in predicting in-hospital mortality (AUROC [95% bootstrap confidence interval], 0.899 [0.897–0.901] vs. 0.875 [0.872–0.877]; P <0.001), with over 81% accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. We observed similar performance in the testing set. Conclusions: Machine learning integrated with routine laboratory tests and EHRs could significantly promote the accuracy of inpatient ICH mortality prediction. This multidimensional composite prediction strategy might become an intelligent assistive prediction for ICH risk reclassification and offer an example for precision medicine.

Abstract
It is now well established that transition metals, such as Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), and Zinc (Zn) are necessary for healthy brain function. Although Fe, Cu, and Zn are essential to the brain, imbalances in the amount, distribution, or chemical form ("metallome") of these metals is linked to the pathology of numerous brain diseases or disorders. Despite the known importance of metal ions for both brain health and disease, the metallome that exists within specific types of brain cells is yet to be fully characterised. The aim of this mini-review is to present an overview of the current knowledge of the metallome found within specific brain cells (oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, microglia, and neurons), as revealed by direct elemental mapping techniques. It is hoped this review will foster continued research using direct elemental mapping techniques to fully characterise the brain cell metallome.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the main cause of disability and mortality in individuals under the age of 45 years. Elucidation of the molecular and structural alterations in brain tissue due to TBI is crucial to understand secondary and long-term effects after traumatic brain injury, and to develop and apply the correct therapies. In the current study, the molecular effects of TBI were investigated in rat brain at 24 h and 1 month after the injury to determine acute and chronic effects, respectively by Fourier transform infrared imaging. This study reports the time-dependent contextual and structural effects of TBI on hippocampal brain tissue. A mild form of TBI was induced in 11-week old male Sprague Dawley rats by weight drop. Band area and intensity ratios, band frequency and bandwidth values of specific spectral bands showed that TBI causes significant structural and contextual global changes including decrease in carbonyl content, unsaturated lipid content, lipid acyl chain length, membrane lipid order, total protein content, lipid/protein ratio, besides increase in membrane fluidity with an altered protein secondary structure and metabolic activity in hippocampus 24 h after injury. However, improvement and/or recovery effects in these parameters were observed at one month after TBI.

[PMID: 33429020 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2020.12.451] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Revised: 12/26/2020] [Accepted: 12/29/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Epoxiconazole is one of the most commonly used fungicides in the world. The exposition of humans to pesticides is mainly attributed to its residue in food or occupational exposure in agricultural production. Because of its lipophilic character, Epoxiconazole can accumulate in the brain Heusinkveld et al. (2013) [1]. Consequently, it is urgent to explore efficient strategies to prevent or treat Epoxiconazole-related brain damages. The use of natural molecules commonly found in our diet represents a promising avenue. Flavonoids belong to a major sub-group compounds possessing powerful antioxidant activities based on their different structural and sterical properties [2]. We choose to evaluate Myricetin, a flavonoid with a wide spectrum of pharmacological effects, for its possible protective functions against Epoxiconazole-induced toxicities. The cytotoxicity induced by this fungicide was evaluated by the cell viability, cell cycle arrest, ROS generation, antioxidant enzyme activities, and Malondialdehyde production, as previously described in Hamdi et al., 2019 [3]. The apoptosis was assessed through the evaluation of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential (ΔΨm), caspases activation, DNA fragmentation, cytoskeleton disruption, nuclear condensation, appearance of sub-G0/G1 peak (fragmentation of the nucleus) and externalization of Phosphatidylserine. This study indicates that pre-treatment of F98 cells with Myricetin during 2 h before Epoxiconazole exposure significantly increased the survival of cells, restored DNA synthesis of the S phase, abrogated the ROS generation, regulated the activities of Catalase (CAT) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), and reduced the MDA level. The loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, DNA fragmentation, cytoskeleton disruption, chromatin condensation, Phosphatidylserine externalization, and Caspases activation were also reduced by Myricetin. Together, these findings indicate that Myricetin is a powerful natural product able to protect cells from Epoxiconazole-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis.

Abstract
Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability in adults and a leading cause of death in developed nations. The cascade of cellular events and signalling that occur after cerebral ischemia are complex, however, analyzing global element markers of metabolic state affords the means to monitor stroke severity, status of injury, and recovery. These markers provide a multi-parameter method for assessing changes through the post-stroke time course. We employ synchrotron-based elemental mapping to follow elemental changes in the brain at 1 h, 1-, 2-, and 3-days, and at 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-weeks post-stroke in a photothrombotic stroke model in mice. Our analysis reveals a highly consistent metabolic penumbra that can be readily identified based on the level of dysregulated potassium and other key elements. Maps of elemental distributions are also useful to demarcate events in the cellular response to the inflammatory cascade, including ion dysregulation, recruitment of cells to the lesion, and glial scar formation.

Abstract
Aims Over the past two decades, animal intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) model studies have indicated that iron, released after hemoglobin degradation, is neurotoxic. Iron phantom and animal experiments have shown that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) relaxivity maps correlate with iron concentration. This study expands this into patients. Methods Eighteen human subjects with ICH underwent MRI at 3, 14, and 30 days. R2* relaxivity maps were used to calculate perihematomal iron concentrations and T2 imaging to determine hematoma and edema volumes. Results Perihematomal iron concentrations were increased at all three time points and decreased with distance from the hematoma. While perihematomal iron concentrations did not vary with hematoma size, the total iron overload (increased iron concentration x volume of affected tissue) did. Total iron overload correlated with edema volume. Conclusions These results demonstrate the feasibility of measuring perihematomal iron in ICH patients which may be important for monitoring treatment strategies and assessing efficacy noninvasively.

Abstract
Metals play an essential role in biological systems and are required as structural or catalytic co-factors in many proteins. Disruption of the homeostatic control and/or spatial distributions of metals can lead to disease. Imaging technologies have been developed to visualize elemental distributions across a biological sample. Measurement of elemental distributions by imaging mass spectrometry and imaging X-ray fluorescence are increasingly employed with technologies that can assess histological features and molecular compositions. Data from several modalities can be interrogated as multimodal images to correlate morphological, elemental, and molecular properties. Elemental and molecular distributions have also been axially resolved to achieve three-dimensional volumes, dramatically increasing the biological information. In this review, we provide an overview of recent developments in the field of metal imaging with an emphasis on multimodal studies in two and three dimensions. We specifically highlight studies that present technological advancements and biological applications of how metal homeostasis affects human health.

Abstract
There is increased recognition of the effects of diffuse traumatic brain injury (dTBI), which can initiate yet unknown biochemical cascades, resulting in delayed secondary brain degeneration and long-term neurological sequela. There is limited availability of therapies that minimize the effect of secondary brain damage on the quality of life of people who have suffered TBI, many of which were otherwise healthy adults. Understanding the cascade of biochemical events initiated in specific brain regions in the acute phase of dTBI and how this spreads into adjacent brain structures may provide the necessary insight into drive development of improved therapies. In this study, we have used direct biochemical imaging techniques (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic imaging) and elemental mapping (X-ray fluorescence microscopy) to characterize biochemical and elemental alterations that occur in corpus callosum white matter in the acute phase of dTBI. The results provide direct visualization of differential biochemical and ionic changes that occur in the highly vulnerable medial corpus callosum white matter relative to the less vulnerable lateral regions of the corpus callosum. Specifically, the results suggest that altered ionic gradients manifest within mechanically damaged medial corpus callosum, potentially spreading to and inducing lipid alterations to white matter structures in lateral brain regions.

Abstract
Diffusible ions (Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Cl-) are vital for healthy function of all cells, especially brain cells. Unfortunately, the diffusible nature of these ions renders them difficult to study with traditional microscopy in situ within ex vivo brain tissue sections. This mini-review examines the recent progress in the field, using direct elemental mapping techniques to study ion homeostasis during normal brain physiology and pathophysiology, through measurement of ion distribution and concentration in ex vivo brain tissue sections. The mini-review examines the advantages and limitations of specific techniques: proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE), X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), laser-ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), and the sample preparation requirements to study diffusible ions with these methods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tailored rehabilitation programs for stroke patients cannot be made without knowledge of their recovery potential. The aim of this study is to characterize the functional recovery patterns of ischemic stroke (IS) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients under post-acute care stroke rehabilitation. METHODS This retrospective study analyzed the data of patients enrolled in the Post-Acute Care-Cerebrovascular Disease (PAC-CVD) rehabilitation program, which provides an individualized 1- to 3-hour intensive physical, occupational, and speech and language therapy for post-acute stroke patients in Taoyuan Chang Gung Memorial hospital in Taiwan. Our primary endpoint measure was Barthel Index (BI), and secondary endpoint measures included other 12 functional measures. RESULTS A total of 489 patients were included for analysis. Patients with stroke history had less BI improvement than those who suffered their first-ever stroke. In first-ever stroke patients who had completed 6 to 12 weeks of PAC-CVD program, subcortical ICH patients had greater BI, quality of life, sensation, and balance improvements, and had greater late-phase recovery than their IS counterparts. In IS patients, those with age >75 had less BI improvement; those with National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score 1-5 had greater Motor Activity Log quality of use (MAL-quality) improvement than those with NIHSS score >5; those with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score ≥24 had greater BI and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) improvement. Using the general linear model, previous stroke (ß: -6.148, p=0.01) and subcortical ICH (ß: 5.04, p=0.03) were factors associated with BI improvement. CONCLUSION Subcortical ICH patients have greater functional improvement and greater late-phase recovery than their IS counterparts following PAC rehabilitation. More studies are needed to validate our findings and unravel the underlying mechanisms of stroke recovery to optimize the treatment strategy following a stroke.

Abstract
Background. Few studies have addressed early out-of-bed mobilization specifically in acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients. Patient benefit in such cases is unclear, with early intervention timing and duration identical to those in standard care. Objective. We investigated the efficacy of an early mobilization (EM) protocol, administered within 24 to 72 hours of stroke onset, for early functional independence in mild-moderate ICH patients. Methods. Sixty patients admitted to a stroke center within 24 hours of ICH were randomly assigned to early mobilization (EM) or standard early rehabilitation (SER). The EM group underwent an early out-of-bed mobilization protocol, while the SER group underwent a standard protocol focusing on in-bed training in the stroke center. Intervention in both groups lasted 30 minutes per session, once a day, 5 days a week. Motor subscales of the Functional Independence Measure (FIM-motor; primary outcome), Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke Patients, and Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) were evaluated (assessor-blinded) at baseline, and at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 3 months after stroke. Length of stay in the stroke center was also recorded. Results. The EM group showed significant improvement in FIM-motor score at all evaluated time points (P = .004) and in FAC outcomes at 2 weeks (P = .033) and 4 weeks (P = .011) after stroke. Length of stay in the stroke center was significantly shorter for the EM group (P = .004). Conclusion. Early out-of-bed mobilization via rehabilitation in a stroke center, within 24 to 72 hours of ICH, may improve early functional independence compared with standard early rehabilitation. Clinical Trial Registration: NCT03292211.

Abstract
Background Cationic arginine-rich peptides (CARPs) have demonstrated neuroprotective and/or behavioural efficacy in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke and traumatic brain injury models. Therefore, in this study we investigated the safety and neuroprotective efficacy of the CARPs poly-arginine-18 (R18; 18-mer of arginine) and its D-enantiomer R18D given in the acute bleeding phase in an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) model. Methods One hundred and fifty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats received collagenase-induced ICH. Study 1 examined various doses of R18D (30, 100, 300, or 1000 nmol/kg) or R18 (100, 300, 1000 nmol/kg) administered intravenously 30 minutes post-collagenase injection on hemorrhage volume 24 hours after ICH. Study 2 examined R18D (single intravenous dose) or R18 (single intravenous dose, plus 6 daily intraperitoneal doses) at 300 or 1000 nmol/kg commencing 30 minutes post-collagenase injection on behavioural outcomes (Montoya staircase test, and horizontal ladder test) in the chronic post-ICH period. A histological assessment of tissue loss was assessed using a Nissl stain at 28 days after ICH. Results When administered during ongoing bleeding, neither R18 or R18D exacerbated hematoma volume or worsened functional deficits. Lesion volume assessment at 28 days post-ICH was not reduced by the peptides; however, animals treated with the lower R18D 300 nmol/kg dose, but not with the higher 1000 nmol/kg dose, demonstrated a statistically increased lesion size compared to saline treated animals. Conclusion Overall, both R18 and R18D appeared to be safe when administered during a period of ongoing bleeding following ICH. Neither peptide appears to have any statistically significant effect in reducing lesion volume or improving functional recovery after ICH. Additional studies are required to further assess dose efficacy and safety in pre-clinical ICH studies.

Abstract
We aim to confirm the impairment of chlorpyrifos (CPF) in PC12 cells, evaluate the protective effect of edaravone on CPF-induced injury, and try to unravel its underlying mechanism perspective from Nrf2 signaling pathway. Viability of PC12 cells treated with CPF and edaravone (Ed) were evaluated by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was observed by the Hoechst 33342 stain. The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were detected to evaluate the oxidative stress injury. The expression of Nrf2 was detected by Western blot; profoundly, RNA interference was conducted to construct Nrf2 gene knockdown PC12 cells and to uncover its underlying mechanism. MTT results showed CPF injured PC12 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Increased ROS and MDA content, decreased total SOD activity, or even apoptosis were occurred in PC12 cells when treated with CPF. Interestingly, CPF-induced cell injury was conspicuously reversed after Ed administration. Nrf2 signaling pathway was activated after Ed treatment and the neuroprotective effect of Ed was not significant in cells after Nrf2 gene knockdown. In conclusion, Ed exerts neuroprotective effect on CPF-induced oxidative stress injury and its mechanism was correlated with the Nrf2 signaling pathway.

Glibenclamide, a Sur1-Trpm4 antagonist, does not improve outcome after collagenase-induced intracerebral hemorrhage. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0215952.

Abstract
The sulfonylurea 1 transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (Sur1-Trpm4) receptor is selectively expressed after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). This upregulation contributes to increases in intracellular sodium. Water follows sodium through aquaporin channels, leading to cytotoxic edema. Even after edema is thought to have resolved, ionic dyshomeostasis persists, as does blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage. Glibenclamide, a hypoglycemic agent that inhibits Sur1-Trpm4, has been shown to reduce BBB damage and edema following infusion of autologous blood into the brain (ICH) as well as after other brain injuries. In order to further assess efficacy, we used the collagenase ICH model in rats to test whether glibenclamide reduces edema, attenuates ion dyshomeostasis, improves BBB damage, and reduces lesion volume. We tested a widely-used glibenclamide dose shown effective in other studies (10 μg/kg loading dose followed by 200 ng/hr for up to 7 days). Early initiation of glibenclamide did not significantly impact edema (72 hours), BBB permeability (72 hours), or lesion volume after ICH (28 days). Recovery from neurological impairments was also not improved by glibenclamide. These results suggest that glibenclamide will not improve outcome in ICH. However, the treatment appeared to be safe as there was no effect on bleeding or other physiological variables.

Abstract
The incidence of brain disease and brain disorders is increasing on a global scale. Unfortunately, development of new therapeutic strategies has not increased at the same rate, and brain diseases and brain disorders now inflict substantial health and economic impacts. A greater understanding of the fundamental neurochemistry that underlies healthy brain function, and the chemical pathways that manifest in brain damage or malfunction, are required to enable and accelerate therapeutic development. A previous limitation to the study of brain function and malfunction has been the limited number of techniques that provide both a wealth of biochemical information, and spatially resolved information (i.e., there was a previous lack of techniques that provided direct biochemical or elemental imaging at the cellular level). In recent times, a suite of direct spectroscopic imaging techniques, such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM), and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) have been adapted, optimized and integrated into the field of neuroscience, to fill the above mentioned capability-gap. Advancements at synchrotron light sources, such as improved light intensity/flux, increased detector sensitivities and new capabilities of imaging/optics, has pushed the above suite of techniques beyond "proof-of-concept" studies, to routine application to study complex research problems in the field of neuroscience (and other scientific disciplines). This review examines several of the major advancements that have occurred over the last several years, with respect to FTIR, XFM and XAS capabilities at synchrotron facilities, and how the increases in technical capabilities have being integrated and used in the field of neuroscience.

Abstract
After intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), brain edema commonly occurs and can cause death. Along with edema, there are significant alterations in the concentrations of key ions such as sodium, potassium, and chloride, which are essential to brain function. NKCC1, a cation-chloride cotransporter, is upregulated after brain damage, such as traumatic injury and ischemic stroke. NKCC1 brings sodium and chloride into the cell, possibly worsening ion dyshomeostasis. Bumetanide, a specific NKCC1 antagonist, blocks the transport of chloride into cells, and thus should attenuate the increases in chloride, which should lessen brain edema and improve neuronal functioning post-ICH, as with other injuries. We used the collagenase model of ICH to test whether bumetanide treatment for three days (vs. vehicle) would improve outcome. We gave bumetanide beginning at two hours or seven days post-ICH and measured behavioural outcome, edema, and brain ion content after treatment. There was some evidence for a minor reduction in edema after early dosing, but this did not improve behaviour or lessen injury. Contrary to our hypothesis, bumetanide did not normalize ion concentrations after late dosing. Bumetanide did not improve behavioural outcome or affect lesion volume. After ICH, bumetanide is safe to use in rats but does not improve functional outcome in the majority of animals.

Abstract
Objectives N‐acetylcysteine (NAC) is a clinically approved thiol‐containing redox modulatory compound currently in trials for many neurological and psychiatric disorders. Although generically labeled as an “antioxidant,” poor understanding of its site(s) of action is a barrier to its use in neurological practice. Here, we examined the efficacy and mechanism of action of NAC in rodent models of hemorrhagic stroke. Methods Hemin was used to model ferroptosis and hemorrhagic stroke in cultured neurons. Striatal infusion of collagenase was used to model intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in mice and rats. Chemical biology, targeted lipidomics, arachidonate 5‐lipoxygenase (ALOX5) knockout mice, and viral‐gene transfer were used to gain insight into the pharmacological targets and mechanism of action of NAC. Results NAC prevented hemin‐induced ferroptosis by neutralizing toxic lipids generated by arachidonate‐dependent ALOX5 activity. NAC efficacy required increases in glutathione and is correlated with suppression of reactive lipids by glutathione‐dependent enzymes such as glutathione S‐transferase. Accordingly, its protective effects were mimicked by chemical or molecular lipid peroxidation inhibitors. NAC delivered postinjury reduced neuronal death and improved functional recovery at least 7 days following ICH in mice and can synergize with clinically approved prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). Interpretation NAC is a promising, protective therapy for ICH, which acted to inhibit toxic arachidonic acid products of nuclear ALOX5 that synergized with exogenously delivered protective PGE2 in vitro and in vivo. The findings provide novel insight into a target for NAC, beyond the generic characterization as an antioxidant, resulting in neuroprotection and offer a feasible combinatorial strategy to optimize efficacy and safety in dosing of NAC for treatment of neurological disorders involving ferroptosis such as ICH.

Abstract
Western society is facing a health epidemic due to the increasing incidence of dementia in aging populations, and there are still few effective diagnostic methods, minimal treatment options, and no cure. Aging is the greatest risk factor for memory loss that occurs during the natural aging process, as well as being the greatest risk factor for neurodegenerative disease such as Alzheimer's disease. Greater understanding of the biochemical pathways that drive a healthy aging brain toward dementia (pathological aging or Alzheimer's disease), is required to accelerate the development of improved diagnostics and therapies. Unfortunately, many animal models of dementia model chronic amyloid precursor protein overexpression, which although highly relevant to mechanisms of amyloidosis and familial Alzheimer's disease, does not model well dementia during the natural aging process. A promising animal model reported to model mechanisms of accelerated natural aging and memory impairments, is the senescence accelerated murine prone strain 8 (SAMP8), which has been adopted by many research group to study the biochemical transitions that occur during brain aging. A limitation to traditional methods of biochemical characterization is that many important biochemical and elemental markers (lipid saturation, lactate, transition metals) cannot be imaged at meso- or microspatial resolution. Therefore, in this investigation, we report the first multimodal biospectroscopic characterization of the SAMP8 model, and have identified important biochemical and elemental alterations, and colocalizations, between 4 month old SAMP8 mice and the relevant control (SAMR1) mice. Specifically, we demonstrate direct evidence of Zn deficiency within specific subregions of the hippocampal CA3 sector, which colocalize with decreased lipid unsaturation. Our findings also revealed colocalization of decreased lipid unsaturation and increased lactate in the corpus callosum white matter, adjacent to the hippocampus. Such findings may have important implication for future research aimed at elucidating specific biochemical pathways for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) after stroke can lead to poor outcome and death. Novel treatments to combat ICP rises are needed. The carbonic anhydrase inhibitor acetazolamide diminishes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production, reduces ICP in healthy animals, and is beneficial for idiopathic intracranial hypertension patients. We tested whether acetazolamide mitigates ICP elevations by presumably decreasing CSF volume after collagenase-induced striatal hemorrhage in rats. We confirmed that acetazolamide did not adversely affect hematoma formation in this model or physiological variables, such as temperature. Then, we assessed the effects of acetazolamide on ICP. Lastly, we tested the effects of acetazolamide on behavioral and histological outcome. Acetazolamide reduced the magnitude and occurrence of short-timescale ICP spikes, assessed as disproportionate increases in ICP (sudden ICP increases > 10 mmHg), 1-min peak ICP, and the magnitude of spikes > 20 mmHg. However, mean ICP was unaffected. In addition, acetazolamide reduced ICP variability, reflecting improved intracranial compliance. Compliance measures were strongly correlated with high peak and mean ICP, whereas ipsilateral hemisphere water content was not correlated with ICP. Despite effects on ICP, acetazolamide did not improve behavioral function or affect lesion size. In summary, we show that intracerebral hemorrhage creates an impaired compliance state within the cranial space that can result in large, transient ICP spikes. Acetazolamide ameliorates intracranial compliance and mitigates ICP spikes, but does not improve functional outcome, at least for moderate-severity ICH in rats.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) causes blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage along with altered element levels in the brain. BBB permeability was quantified at 3, 7, and 14 days with Evans Blue dye after collagenase-induced ICH in rat. At peak permeability (day 3), a gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agent was injected to further characterize BBB disruption, and X-ray fluorescence imaging (XFI) was used to map Gd, Fe, Cl, and other elements. XFI revealed that Ca, Cl, Gd, and Fe concentrations were significantly elevated, whereas K was significantly decreased. Therefore, using Gd-XFI, we co-determined BBB dysfunction with alterations in the metallome, including those that contribute to cell death and functional outcome. Warfarin was administered 3 days post-ICH to investigate whether additional or new bleeding occurs during peak BBB dysfunction, and hematoma volume was assessed on day 4. Warfarin administration prolonged bleeding time after a peripheral cut-induced bleed, but warfarin did not worsen hematoma volume. Accordingly, extensive BBB leakage occurred after ICH, but did not appear to affect total hematoma size.

Abstract
Provide the state of the art concerning (1) biology and aetiology, (2) classification, (3) clinical assessment and (4) conservative treatment of lower limb muscle injuries (MI) in athletes. Seventy international experts with different medical backgrounds participated in the consensus conference. They discussed and approved a consensus composed of four sections which are presented in these documents. This paper represents a synthesis of the consensus conference, the following four sections are discussed: (i) The biology and aetiology of MIs. A definition of MI was formulated and some key points concerning physiology and pathogenesis of MIs were discussed. (ii) The MI classification. A classification of MIs was proposed. (iii) The MI clinical assessment, in which were discussed anamnesis, inspection and clinical examination and are provided the relative guidelines. (iv) The MI conservative treatment, in which are provided the guidelines for conservative treatment based on the severity of the lesion. Furthermore, instrumental therapy and pharmacological treatment were discussed. Knowledge of the aetiology and biology of MIs is an essential prerequisite in order to plan and conduct a rehabilitation plan. Another important aspect is the use of a rational MI classification on prognostic values. We propose a classification based on radiological investigations performed by ultrasonography and MRI strongly linked to prognostic factors. Furthermore, the consensus conference results will able to provide fundamental guidelines for diagnostic and rehabilitation practice, also considering instrumental therapy and pharmacological treatment of MI. Expert opinion, level IV.

Abstract
Stroke exacts a heavy financial and economic burden, is a leading cause of death, and is the leading cause of long-term disability in those who survive. The penumbra surrounds the ischemic core of the stroke lesion and is composed of cells that are stressed and vulnerable to death, which is due to an altered metabolic, oxidative, and ionic environment within the penumbra. Without therapeutic intervention, many cells within the penumbra will die and become part of the growing infarct, however, there is hope that appropriate therapies may allow potential recovery of cells within this tissue region, or at least slow the rate of cell death, therefore, slowing the spread of the ischemic infarct and minimizing the extent of tissue damage. As such, preserving the penumbra to promote functional brain recovery is a central goal in stroke research. While identification of the ischemic infarct, and the infarct/penumbra boundary is relatively trivial using classical histology and microscopy techniques, accurately assessing the penetration of the penumbra zone into undamaged brain tissue, and evaluating the magnitude of chemical alterations in the penumbra, has long been a major challenge to the stroke research field. In this study, we have used synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence imaging to visualize the elemental changes in undamaged, penumbra, and infarct brain tissue, following ischemic stroke. We have employed a Gaussian mixture model to cluster tissue areas based on their elemental characteristics. The method separates the core of the infarct from healthy tissue, and also demarcates discrete regions encircling the infarct. These regions of interest can be combined with elemental and metabolic data, as well as with conventional histology. The cell populations defined by clustering provide a reproducible means of visualizing the size and extent of the penumbra at the level of the single cell and provide a critically needed tool to track changes in elemental status and penumbra size.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a form of brain bleeding and minor subtype of stroke, leads to significant mortality and long-term disability. There are currently no validated approaches to promote functional recovery after ICH. Research in stroke recovery and rehabilitation has largely focused on ischemic stroke, but given the stark differences in the pathophysiology between ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, it is possible that strategies to rehabilitate the brain in distinct stroke subtypes will be different. Here, we review our current understanding of recovery after primary intracerebral hemorrhage with the intent to provide a framework to promote novel, stroke-subtype specific approaches.

Abstract
Potentially fatal intracranial pressure (ICP) rises commonly occur after large intracerebral hemorrhages (ICH). We monitored ICP after infusing 100-160 μL of autologous blood (vs. 0 μL control) into the striatum of rats in order to test the validity of this common model with regard to ICP elevations. Other endpoints included body temperature, behavioral impairment, lesion volume, and edema. Also, we evaluated hippocampal CA1 sector and somatosensory cortical neuron morphology to assess whether global ischemic injury occurred. Despite massive blood infusions, ICP only modestly increased (160 μL 10.8 ± 2.1 mmHg for <36 h vs. control 3.4 ± 0.5 mmHg), with little peri-hematoma edema at 3 days. Body temperature was not affected. Behavioral deficits and tissue loss were infusion volume-dependent. There was no histological evidence of hippocampal or cortical injury, indicating that cell death was confined to the hematoma and closely surrounding tissue. Surprisingly, the most severe hemorrhages significantly increased cell density (~15-20%) and reduced cell body size (~30%) in regions outside the injury site. Additionally, decreased cell size and increased density were observed after collagenase-induced ICH. Parenchymal volume is seemingly reduced after large ICH. Thus, in addition to well-known compliance mechanisms (e.g., displacement of cerebrospinal fluid and cerebral blood), reduced brain parenchymal volume appears to limit ICP rises in rodents with very large mass lesions.
