While an effect of inflammation on cerebrovascular breakdown has been observed, little is known about the specific contribution of brain pericytes to the inflammatory response in TBI. Here, we focused on studying the pericyte response to inflammatory stimuli commonly found in the brain following TBI.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Mouse brain vascular pericytes were exposed to IL-1β, TNF-α and IFN-γ for 2 h and 24 h and probed for markers of pericyte health and a panel of inflammatory mediators. As the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) pathway is critical to pericyte function, we also assessed the effect of PDGF-BB stimulation on the inflammatory response in pericytes. Cultured pericytes were treated with PDGF-BB (10 ng/mL) prior to, simultaneously, and following inflammatory insult. To further investigate their role in brain immunosurveillance, we analyzed the cytokine secretome in mouse pericyte cultures treated with PDGF-BB, as well as in brain vascular pericytes isolated from repetitive mild TBI (r-mTBI) mice that were fed phenytoin-enriched chow, an inducer of PDGF-BB secretion.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Cytokine stimulation with TNF-α, IL-1β, and IFN-γ for 2 and 24 h led to significant upregulation of PDGFRβ in cultured pericytes, with an 8-fold increase after 24 h. MTT assays showed no significant change in cell viability, indicating that cytokine treatment did not induce cytotoxicity. Further, elevated levels of pro-inflammatory markers STAT1 and p-NFkB were observed in response to cytokine exposure, with a concurrent increase in VCAM1 and MMP9 expression. PDGF-BB treatment significantly attenuated the inflammatory response in pericytes, reducing PDGFRβ levels and the activation of inflammatory pathways, including STAT1 and NFkB. Cytokine secretion profiles also revealed that PDGF-BB, when administered post-inflammatory insult, selectively reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β and IFN-γ. Additionally, phenytoin treatment in r-mTBI mice decreased IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-5, and KC/GRO levels in isolated brain pericytes, while IL-2, IL-4, and IL-6 levels were unchanged compared to untreated r-mTBI animals.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Our results indicate an immunoreactive role for brain pericytes in the propagation of neuroinflammation.

Driving this autoimmune response are self-antigens, such as highly abundant structural proteins and cellular proteins, which can lead to the production of auto-antibodies. However, controversy surrounds the detection of some of these auto-antibodies as they have often been screened against native, unmodified proteins. Autoantigens arise as a result of a conformational change in the native protein exposing hidden epitopes or by the creation of neo-epitopes through chemical or enzymatic modifications, often caused by oxidative/carbonyl stress. In this study, we screened for auto-antibodies targeting key structural proteins modified by oxidative/carbonyl stress in peripheral blood from stable COPD patients versus control subjects using ELISA. We found an auto-antibody response against unmodified, carbonyl-modified and citrinylated vimentin, with the highest response observed against carbonyl-modified vimentin. Both the IgG and IgM antibody titres against carbonyl-modified were significantly increased in COPD patients compared to healthy non-smokers. Smokers also displayed increased antibody levels against carbonyl-modified vimentin, but only for the IgG isotype. Selectivity analysis indicated that 70% and 63% of COPD patients had higher IgM and IgG titres, respectively, compared to non-smokers. In contrast only 26% and 48% of smokers had higher IgM and IgG titres, respectively, than non-smokers. ROC analysis gave AUC values of 0.78 (p < 0.01) and 0.84 (p < 0.001) for IgM and IgG, respectively, for COPD versus non-smokers, which fell to 0.70 (p < 0.01) and 0.64 (NS), respectively, when asymptomatic smokers were included. No significant increase in antibody titre against carbonyl-modified elastin or collagen was observed in COPD patients or asymptomatic smokers.

To access the subretinal space, transvitreal (TV) and transscleral (TS) subretinal injections have been widely used in humans and animal models. In this work, we investigated recent trends and outcomes of utilizing TV and TS subretinal models of retinal detachment (RD). A literature review revealed an increasing utilization of both models over the past two decades, with TS emerging as the predominant model since 2012. Subretinal injection in CX3CR1 + /GFP CCR2 + /RFP mice revealed early inflammatory responses, with TS injections inducing higher infiltration of CD11b + CCR2 + cells compared to TV. Further leukocyte immunophenotyping indicated divergent infiltration patterns, with the TS approach exhibiting higher proportions of neutrophils and macrophages/microglia-like cells, while the TV injections had higher CD45hi CD11b + Ly6G- Ly6C + infiltration. Notably, late-stage analysis demonstrates higher photoreceptor cell death in the TS approach, paralleled by increased subretinal infiltration of CD11b + cells. Both models showed significant reactive gliosis, suggesting comparable late-stage wound healing responses. These findings underscore the utility of these approaches for subretinal delivery, offering insights into their distinctive leukocyte infiltration and late-stage tissue responses.</p>","PeriodicalId":56120,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Inflammation-London","volume":"22 1","pages":"5"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11806547/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143371389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
