Hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) could very probably trigger white matter injury in patients. Through the continuous study of white matter injury after hypertensive ICH, we achieve a more profound understanding of the pathophysiological mechanism of its occurrence and development. At the same time, we found a series of drugs and treatment methods for the white matter repair. In the current reality, the research paradigm of white matter injury after hypertensive ICH is relatively obsolete or incomplete, and there are still lots of deficiencies in the research. In the face of the profound changes of stroke research perspective, we believe that the combination of the lenticulostriate artery, nerve nuclei of the hypothalamus-thalamus-basal ganglia, and the white matter fibers located within the capsula interna will be beneficial to the research of white matter injury and repair. This paper has classified and analyzed the study of white matter injury and repair after hypertensive ICH and also rethought the shortcomings of the current research. We hope that it could help researchers further explore and study white matter injury and repair after hypertensive ICH.

Object. The authors previously demonstrated, in a large-animal intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) model, that markedly edematous (“translucent”) white matter regions (> 10% increases in water contents) containing high levels of clotderived plasma proteins rapidly develop adjacent to hematomas. The goal of the present study was to determine the concentrations of high-energy phosphate, carbohydrate substrate, and lactate in these and other perihematomal white and gray matter regions during the early hours following experimental ICH. Methods. The authors infused autologous blood (1.7 ml) into frontal lobe white matter in a physiologically controlled model in pigs (weighing approximately 7 kg each) and froze their brains in situ at 1, 3, 5, or 8 hours postinfusion. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), phosphocreatine (PCr), glycogen, glucose, lactate, and water contents were then measured in white and gray matter located ipsi- and contralateral to the hematomas, and metabolite concentrations in edematous brain regions were corrected for dilution. In markedly edematous white matter, glycogen and glucose concentrations increased two- to fivefold compared with control during 8 hours postinfusion. Similarly, PCr levels increased several-fold by 5 hours, whereas, except for a moderate decrease at 1 hour, ATP remained unchanged. Lactate was markedly increased (approximately 20 µmol/g) at all times. In gyral gray matter overlying the hematoma, water contents and glycogen levels were significantly increased at 5 and 8 hours, whereas lactate levels were increased two- to fourfold at all times. Conclusions. These results, which demonstrate normal to increased high-energy phosphate and carbohydrate substrate concentrations in edematous perihematomal regions during the early hours following ICH, are qualitatively similar to findings in other brain injury models in which a reduction in metabolic rate develops. Because an energy deficit is not present, lactate accumulation in edematous white matter is not caused by stimulated anaerobic glycolysis. Instead, because glutamate concentrations in the blood entering the brain's extracellular space during ICH are several-fold higher than normal levels, the authors speculate, on the basis of work reported by Pellerin and Magistretti, that glutamate uptake by astrocytes leads to enhanced aerobic glycolysis and lactate is generated at a rate that exceeds utilization.

Introduction: The Boston criteria are used worldwide for in vivo diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Given substantial advances in CAA research, we aimed to update the Boston criteria and externally validate their diagnostic accuracy across the spectrum of CAA-related presentations and across international sites. Methods: As part of an International CAA Association multicenter study, we identified patients age 50 or older with potential CAA-related clinical presentations (spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, cognitive impairment, or transient focal neurological episodes), available brain MRI, and histopathologic assessment for the diagnosis of CAA. We derived Boston criteria v2.0 by selecting MRI features to optimize diagnostic specificity and sensitivity in a pre-specified derivation sample (Boston cases 1994 to 2012, n=159), then externally validated in pre-specified temporal (Boston cases 2012-2018, n=59) and geographical (non-Boston cases 2004-2018; n=123) validation samples and compared their diagnostic accuracy to the currently used modified Boston criteria. Results: Based on exploratory analyses in the derivation sample, we derived provisional criteria for probable CAA requiring presence of at least 2 strictly lobar hemorrhagic lesions (intracerebral hemorrhage, cerebral microbleed, or cortical superficial siderosis focus) or at least 1 strictly lobar hemorrhagic lesion and 1 white matter characteristic (severe degree of visible perivascular spaces in centrum semiovale or white matter hyperintensities multispot pattern). Sensitivity/specificity of the criteria were 74.8/84.6% in the derivation sample, 92.5/89.5% in the temporal validation sample, 80.2/81.5% in the geographic validation sample, and 74.5/95.0% in cases across all samples with autopsy as the diagnostic gold standard. The v2.0 criteria for probable CAA had superior accuracy to the currently modified Boston criteria (p<0.005) in the autopsied cases. Conclusion: The Boston criteria v.2.0 incorporate emerging MRI markers of CAA to enhance sensitivity without compromising their high specificity. Validation of the criteria across independent patient settings firmly supports their adoption into clinical practice and research.

Introduction: Extracellular vesicles such as exosomes has opened a new field of research. Exosomes are able to transfer DNAs, mRNAs, microRNAs, non-coding RNAs, proteins, trophic factors and lipids associated with brain plasticity enhancement after stroke. Aim: To investigate white matter repair after exosomes administration in two experimental models of subcortical stroke: ischemic and hemorrhage. Material/Methods: Subcortical ischemic stroke was induced by Endothelin-1 and Collagenase IV was used to induce subcortical hemorrhagic stroke into striatum. Intravenous exosomes or saline only were administrated at 24h after cerebral infarct as treatment. Exosomes were isolated from culture of adipose mesenchymal stem cell and they were characterized by Nanoshight, Electronic microscope, Western blot and Immunofluorescence. Proteins contained into exosomes were analyzed by Orbitrab. We analyzed functional recovery by Rotarod, beam walking and Rogers tests. Lesion volume and tract connectivity were studied by magnetic resonance image. Anterograde and retrograde tracers were used to analyze axonal sprouting. Myelin formation was analyzed by cryomielin. Results: Proteomics analysis of exosomes identified more than 1400 proteins, many of them involved in intercellular communication. DiI labeled-Exosomes were detected in brain and peripheral organs (liver, lung and spleen). After 28 days, treated groups showed smaller functional deficit compared to control groups in both hemorrhagic and ischemic models. Moreover, treated group showed an increase in tract connectivity at 7 and 28 days compared to control groups. Also, animals which received exosomes showed an increase axonal sprouting and myelin formation at 28 days after stroke in both hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke. The treated groups also showed higher levels of white matter-associated markers in the injured area than the control groups. Conclusion: White matter integrity in different subcortical strokes is in part restored by exosomes treatment, probably mediated by repair molecular factors implicated in axonal sprouting, remyelination and oligodendrogenesis. These findings are associated with improved functional recovery in both kinds of strokes.

Objectives: White matter injury aggravates neurological and cognitive impairment in experimental ischemic stroke. M2 microglia promote oligodendrocyte precursor cells survival and differentiation, and further enhance white matter repair. However, the molecular mechanism is unclear. Here, we explored the effect and mechanism of M2 microglia-derived exosomes on white matter repair after focal cerebral ischemia in mice. Methods: Microglia BV2 cells were polarized to M2 phenotype by IL-4 stimulation. Exosomes were isolated from M2 microglia (M2-Exo) and unstimulated microglia as a control (M0-Exo). M2-Exo and M0-Exo (100 μg) were intravenously injected after 90-minute middle cerebral artery occlusion in mice (n=72). Brain atrophy volume and neuro behavioral outcomes were examined in 28 days following focal cerebral ischemia. Oligodendrocyte precursor cells survival, differentiation and white matter integrity were evaluated. Exosomal miRNA and target gene were further examined to explore molecular mechanism. Results: M2-Exo treatment promoted sensorimotor and memory function recovery ( p <0.05), and further reduced brain atrophy compared to the M0-Exo control group ( p <0.001). Immunostaining showed that M2-Exo increased the number of BrdU + /Pdgfr-α + and BrdU + /adenomatous polyposis coli + cells, enhanced myelin basic protein fluorescence-intensity compared to the control ( p <0.05). M2-Exo increased oligodendrocyte precursor cell survival under OGD in vi tro , ( p <0.05) and differentiation ( p <0.05). Exosomal miRNA sequencing and PCR identified that miR-23a-5p was enriched in M2-Exo. Conclusion: Our results showed that M2-Exo treatment enhanced oligodendrocyte precursor cell survival and differentiation, further promoted white matter repair and long-term functional recovery, suggesting that M2-Exo is a novel therapeutic strategy for the white matter repair after ischemic brain injury.
