Singh B, Huang D. The Role of Circadian Rhythms in Stroke: A Narrative Review. Neurochem Res 2024; 49:290-305. [PMID: 37838637 DOI: 10.1007/s11064-023-04040-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2023] [Revised: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 09/24/2023] [Indexed: 10/16/2023]
Abstract
Stroke, a debilitating condition often leading to long-term disability, poses a substantial global concern and formidable challenge. The increasing incidence of stroke has drawn the attention of medical researchers and neurologists worldwide. Circadian rhythms have emerged as pivotal factors influencing stroke's onset, pathogenesis, treatment, and outcomes. To gain deeper insights into stroke, it is imperative to explore the intricate connection between circadian rhythms and stroke, spanning from molecular mechanisms to pathophysiological processes. Despite existing studies linking circadian rhythm to stroke onset, there remains a paucity of comprehensive reviews exploring its role in pathogenesis, treatment, and prognosis. This review undertakes a narrative analysis of studies investigating the relationship between circadian variation and stroke onset. It delves into the roles of various physiological factors, including blood pressure, coagulation profiles, blood cells, catecholamines, cortisol, and the timing of antihypertensive medication, which contribute to variations in circadian-related stroke risk. At a molecular level, the review elucidates the involvement of melatonin, circadian genes, and glial cells in the pathophysiology. Furthermore, it provides insights into the diverse factors influencing stroke treatment and outcomes within the context of circadian variation. The review underscores the importance of considering circadian rhythms when determining the timing of stroke interventions, emphasizing the necessity for personalized stroke management strategies that incorporate circadian rhythms. It offers valuable insights into potential molecular targets and highlights areas that require further exploration to enhance our understanding of the underlying pathophysiology. In comparison to the published literature, this manuscript distinguishes itself through its coverage of circadian rhythms' impact on stroke across the entire clinical spectrum. It presents a unique synthesis of epidemiological, clinical, molecular, and cellular evidence, underscoring their collective significance.

[PMID: 38191908 PMCID: PMC10774401 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-50785-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Despite its demonstrated biological significance, time of day is a broadly overlooked biological variable in preclinical and clinical studies. How time of day affects the influence of peripheral tumors on central (brain) function remains unspecified. Thus, we tested the hypothesis that peripheral mammary cancer tumors alter the transcriptome of immune responses in the brain and that these responses vary based on time of day; we predicted that time of day sampling bias would alter the interpretation of the results. Brain tissues collected at mid dark and mid light from mammary tumor-bearing and vehicle injected mice were analyzed using the Nanostring nCounter immune panel. Peripheral mammary tumors significantly affected expression within the brain of over 100 unique genes of the 770 represented in the panel, and fewer than 25% of these genes were affected similarly across the day. Indeed, between 65 and 75% of GO biological processes represented by the differentially expressed genes were dependent upon time of day of sampling. The implications of time-of-day sampling bias in interpretation of research studies cannot be understated. We encourage considering time of day as a significant biological variable in studies and to appropriately control for it and clearly report time of day in findings.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1185890. [PMID: 37600060 PMCID: PMC10434281 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1185890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Ischemic stroke (IS) is one of the most common serious secondary diseases of atrial fibrillation (AF) within 1 year after its occurrence, both of which have manifestations of ischemia and hypoxia of the small vessels in the early phase of the condition. The fundus is a collection of capillaries, while the retina responds differently to light of different wavelengths. Predicting the risk of IS occurring secondary to AF, based on subtle differences in fundus images of different wavelengths, is yet to be explored. This study was conducted to predict the risk of IS occurring secondary to AF based on multi-spectrum fundus images using deep learning. Methods A total of 150 AF participants without suffering from IS within 1 year after discharge and 100 IS participants with persistent arrhythmia symptoms or a history of AF diagnosis in the last year (defined as patients who would develop IS within 1 year after AF, based on fundus pathological manifestations generally prior to symptoms of the brain) were recruited. Fundus images at 548, 605, and 810 nm wavelengths were collected. Three classical deep neural network (DNN) models (Inception V3, ResNet50, SE50) were trained. Sociodemographic and selected routine clinical data were obtained. Results The accuracy of all DNNs with the single-spectral or multi-spectral combination images at the three wavelengths as input reached above 78%. The IS detection performance of DNNs with 605 nm spectral images as input was relatively more stable than with the other wavelengths. The multi-spectral combination models acquired a higher area under the curve (AUC) scores than the single-spectral models. Conclusions The probability of IS secondary to AF could be predicted based on multi-spectrum fundus images using deep learning, and combinations of multi-spectrum images improved the performance of DNNs. Acquiring different spectral fundus images is advantageous for the early prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The method in this study is a beneficial preliminary and initiative exploration for diseases that are difficult to predict the onset time such as IS.

Abstract
Stroke remains one of the leading causes of mortality and long-term and permanent disability worldwide despite technological innovations and developments in pharmacotherapy. In the last few decades, the growing data have evidenced the role of the circadian system in brain vulnerability to damage, the development and evolution of stroke, and short-term and long-term recovery. On the other hand, the stroke itself can affect the circadian system via direct injury of specific brain structures involved in circadian regulation (i.e., hypothalamus, retinohypothalamic tracts, etc.) and impairment of endogenous regulatory mechanisms, metabolic derangement, and a neurogenic inflammatory response in acute stroke. Moreover, the disruption of circadian rhythms can occur or exacerbate as a result of exogenous factors related to hospitalization itself, the conditions in the intensive care unit and the ward (light, noise, etc.), medication (sedatives and hypnotics), and loss of external factors entraining the circadian rhythms. In the acute phase of stroke, patients demonstrate abnormal circadian variations in circadian biomarkers (melatonin, cortisol), core body temperature, and rest-activity patterns. The approaches aimed at the restoration of disrupted circadian patterns include pharmacological (melatonin supplementation) and non-medication (bright light therapy, shifting feeding schedules, etc.) interventions; however, their effects on short- and long-term recovery after stroke are not well understood.

Influence of Temperature Chronobiology on Stroke Outcome. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24043746.

Abstract
The circadian system regulates numerous physiological variables, including body temperature. Additionally, a circadian patter has been described in stroke onset. Considering this, we hypothesised that the chronobiology of temperature may have an impact on stroke onset and functional outcomes. We also studied the variation of blood biomarkers according to stroke onset time. This is a retrospective observational study. Of the patients included, 2763 had a stroke between midnight and 8:00 h; 1571 between 8:00-14:00 h; and 655 between 14:00 h and midnight. Axillary temperature was measured at admission. At this time, blood samples were collected for biomarker analysis (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, and glutamate). Temperature was higher in patients admitted from 8:00 h to midnight (p < 0.0001). However, the percentage of poor outcome at 3 months was highest in patients from midnight to 8:00 h (57.7%, p < 0.001). The association between temperature and mortality was highest during night time (OR: 2.79; CI 95%: 2.36-3.28; p < 0.001). These patients exhibited high glutamate (220.2 ± 140.2 µM), IL-6 (32.8 ± 14.3 pg/mL) and low IL-10 (9.7 ± 14.3 pg/mL) levels. Therefore, temperature chronobiology could have a significant impact on stroke onset and functional outcome. Superficial body hyperthermia during sleep seems to be more dangerous than during wakefulness. Further studies will be necessary to confirm our data.

Front Neurosci 2022; 16:1013027. [PMID: 36570843 PMCID: PMC9772621 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.1013027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2022] [Accepted: 11/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Accumulating evidence suggests that astrocytes, the abundant cell type in the central nervous system (CNS), play a critical role in maintaining the immune response after cerebral infarction, regulating the blood-brain barrier (BBB), providing nutrients to the neurons, and reuptake of glutamate. The circadian clock is an endogenous timing system that controls and optimizes biological processes. The central circadian clock and the peripheral clock are consistent, controlled by various circadian components, and participate in the pathophysiological process of astrocytes. Existing evidence shows that circadian rhythm controls the regulation of inflammatory responses by astrocytes in ischemic stroke (IS), regulates the repair of the BBB, and plays an essential role in a series of pathological processes such as neurotoxicity and neuroprotection. In this review, we highlight the importance of astrocytes in IS and discuss the potential role of the circadian clock in influencing astrocyte pathophysiology. A comprehensive understanding of the ability of the circadian clock to regulate astrocytes after stroke will improve our ability to predict the targets and biological functions of the circadian clock and gain insight into the basis of its intervention mechanism.
