Introduction: Pharmacologic induction of metabolic tolerance to spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury (SCI) after thoracoabdominal aortic intervention is not well established. We previously demonstrated that nicorandil pretreatment preserved motor function in a murine SCI model via direct mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel activation and nitric oxide (NO) donation. However, the independent role of NO-mediated neuroprotection has not been elucidated. Hypothesis: Nitroglycerin pretreatment will induce neuroprotection through NO-mediated KATP channel activation. Methods: SCI was induced by 7 minutes of thoracic aortic cross-clamping in adult male C57BL/6 mice. Pretreatment constituted intraperitoneal injection 3 consecutive days before injury. Experimental groups: sham (no pretreatment or ischemia, n=10), SCI control (normal saline, n=20), nitroglycerin 1 mg/kg (n=18), nitroglycerin 1 mg/kg + 5-hydroxydecanonate 5 mg/kg (5HD, mitochondrial KATP channel blocker, n=13), 5HD 5 mg/kg (n=10), nitroglycerin 1 mg/kg + carboxy-PTIO (cPTIO) 1 mg/kg (NO scavenger, n=16), and cPTIO 1 mg/kg (n=10). Limb motor function and the number of viable neurons within the anterior horn of the spinal cord were evaluated. Results: Compared to SCI control, motor function was significantly preserved in the nitroglycerin pretreatment group at every time point after ischemia. In the nitroglycerin+5HD and nitroglycerin+cPTIO groups, motor preservation was significantly attenuated compared to nitroglycerin pretreatment (p<0.001). Histological analysis showed significant neuron preservation in the nitroglycerin pretreatment group compared with SCI control (p=0.011). This preservation was completely attenuated with 5HD or cPTIO co-administration (p=0.001). Conclusions: Nitroglycerin pretreatment significantly preserved motor function in a murine SCI model through NO-mediated KATP channel activation.

Background: Spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury (SCIRI) is usually caused by spinal surgery or aortic aneurysm surgery and can eventually lead to paralysis or paraplegia and neurological dysfunction. Exosomes are considered as one of the most promising therapeutic strategies for SCIRI as they can pass the blood-spinal barrier. Previous studies have proved that exosomes secreted by osteocytes have a certain slowing effect on SCIRI. Aim: We aimed to explore the effect of osteoblast secreted exosomes on SCIRI. Methods: Firstly, neurons and osteoblasts were co-cultured under different conditions. GEO database was utilized to detect the expression of miR-23a-3p in osteoblast exosomes. SCIRI cells were treated with exosomes, and the detection was taken to prove whether miR-23a-3p could slow the progression of SCIRI. Downstream gene and the potential regulatory mechanism were explored through database and functional experiments. Results: MiR-23a-3p was highly expressed in exosomes and it slowed down the process of SCIRI. Downstream mRNA KLF3 could bind to miR-23a-3p and was highly expressed in IRI. Moreover, CCNL2 was regulated by KLF3 and was highly expressed in IRI. Rescue experiments verified that miR-23a-3p suppressed the transcription of CCNL2 by targeting KLF3. Conclusion: Exosome miR-23a-3p from osteoblast alleviates SCIRI by down-regulating KLF3-activated CCNL2 transcription.
