Abstract Co-treatment of neuroprotective reagents may improve the therapeutic efficacy of hypothermia in protecting neurons during ischemic stroke. This study aimed to find promising drugs that enhance the neuroprotective effect of mild hypothermia (MH). 26 candidate drugs were selected based on different targets. Primary cultured cortical neurons were exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) to induce neuronal damage, followed by either single treatment (a drug or MH) or a combination of a drug and MH. Results showed that, compared with single treatment, combination of MH with brain derived neurotrophic factor, glibenclamide, dizocilpine, human urinary kallidinogenase or neuroglobin displayed higher proportion of neuronal cell viability. The latter three drugs also caused less apoptosis rate in combined treatment. Furthermore, co-treatment of those three drugs and MH decreased the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and intracellular calcium accumulation, as well as stabilized mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), indicating the combined neuroprotective effects are probably via inhibiting mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. Taken together, the study suggests that combined treatment with hypothermia and certain neuroprotective reagents provide a better protection against OGD/R-induced neuronal injury.

Objective: To investigate how nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) involved in the protective effect of isoflurane (Iso) preconditioning in oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced cortical neuron injury. Methods: Primary mouse cortical neurons were divided into Control, ML385 (an Nrf2 inhibitor), Iso, Iso + ML385, OGD, ML385 + OGD, Iso + OGD, and Iso + ML385 + OGD groups. Lactate dehydrogenase activity (LDH) release and oxidative stress indexes were quantified. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to detect cell viability, Annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide (PI) staining to measure cell apoptosis, dichloro-dihydro-fluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) method to test reactive oxygen species (ROS), and quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting to evaluate genes and protein expression. Results: Iso preconditioning reduced LDH release and inhibited cell cytotoxicity in OGD-induced cortical neurons, which was abolished by ML385. Iso preconditioning increased the Nrf2 nuclear translocation in cortical neurons. Meanwhile, Iso decreased the OGD-induced apoptosis with the down-regulations of Bax and Caspase-3 and the up-regulation of Bcl-2, which was reversed by ML385. OGD enhanced the level of ROS and malondialdehyde (MDA) in cortical neurons, but reduced the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), which were aggravated in ML385 + OGD group and mitigated in Iso + OGD group. No observable difference was found between OGD group and Iso + ML385 + OGD group regarding apoptosis-related proteins and oxidative stress-related indexes. Conclusion: Iso preconditioning up-regulated Nrf2 level to play its protective role in OGD-induced mouse cortical neuron injury.

Induced Apoptosis

We reported that a high level of autophagy was initiated by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) and was maintained in neurons even after oxygen-glucose deprivation followed by reoxygenation (OGD/R), accompanied by neuronal apoptosis. This study focused on autophagy-induced apoptosis and its signaling network, especially the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS). Analysis of primary cultured cortical neurons from mice showed that the autophagy-induced apoptosis depended on Caspase-8 and -9 but not Caspase-12. This finding did not mean that the endoplasmic reticulum did not participate in this process. Increases in the levels of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) biomarkers and Binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP) were induced by autophagy in OGD/R-treated neurons. In addition, as an apoptotic transcription factor induced by ER stress, C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) expression was significantly increased in neurons after OGD/R. This result suggested that the autophagy-Bip-CHOP-caspase (8 and 9)-dependent apoptotic signaling pathway at least partly participated in autophagy-induced apoptosis in primary cortical neurons. It revealed that ER induced apoptosis in neurons suffering from OGD/R injury in an ER stress-CHOP-dependent manner rather than a caspase-12-dependent manner. However, more research on signaling or cross-linking networks and intermediate links are needed. The realization of caspase-12-independent BiP-CHOP neuronal apoptosis pathway has expanded our understanding of the neuronal apoptosis network, which may eventually provide endogenous interventional strategies for OGD/R injury after stroke.
