Traumatic brain injury (TBI) triggers a robust inflammatory response that is closely linked to worsened clinical outcomes. S100A8/A9, also known as calprotectin or myeloid-related protein-8/14 (MRP8/14), an alarmin primarily secreted by activated neutrophils with potent pro-inflammatory property. In this study, we explored the roles of S100A8/A9 in modulating neuroinflammation and influencing TBI outcomes, delving into underlying mechanisms. S100A8/A9-enriched were present injured tissue patients, elevated plasma levels correlated poorer neurological function. Furthermore, using mouse model, demonstrated treatment selective inhibitor Paquinimod significantly mitigated neuronal death, thereby improving prognosis mice. Mechanistically, found conjunction neutrophil activation infiltration brain, enhances reactive oxygen species (ROS) production within neutrophils, accelerating PAD4-mediated extracellular trap (NET) formation, which turn exacerbates neuroinflammation. These findings suggest amplifies neuroinflammatory responses promoting NET formation neutrophils. Inhibition effectively attenuated NET-mediated neuroinflammation; however, when PAD4 was overexpressed adenovirus, leading increased anti-inflammatory effects inhibition markedly diminished. Further experiments knockout mice confirmed reduction NETs could substantially alleviate S100A8/A9-driven Finally, established suppression mediated through AMPK/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. underscore critical pathological role emphasize need for further exploration potential therapeutic strategy TBI.

Neuroinflammation is one of the most important pathogeneses in secondary brain injury after traumatic (TBI). Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) forming neutrophils were found throughout tissue TBI patients and elevated plasma NET biomarkers correlated with worse outcomes. However, biological function underlying mechanisms NETs TBI-induced neural damage are not yet fully understood. Here, we used Cl-amidine, a selective inhibitor to investigate role TBI.Controlled cortical impact model was performed establish TBI. 2'3'-cGAMP (an activator stimulating Interferon genes (STING)), C-176 (a STING inhibitor), Kira6 [a selectively phosphorylated inositol-requiring enzyme-1 alpha [IRE1α] inhibitor] administrated explore mechanism by which promote neuroinflammation neuronal apoptosis Peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4), an essential enzyme for neutrophil trap formation, overexpressed adenoviruses cortex mice 1 day before The short-term neurobehavior tests, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), laser speckle contrast (LSCI), Evans blue extravasation assay, Fluoro-Jade C (FJC), TUNEL, immunofluorescence, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), western blotting, quantitative-PCR this study.Neutrophils form presenting circulation at 3 days Cl-amidine treatment improved neurological functions, reduced cerebral lesion volume, edema, restored blood flow (CBF) In addition, exerted neuroprotective effects attenuating BBB disruption, inhibiting immune cell infiltration, alleviating death Moreover, inhibited microglia/macrophage pro-inflammatory polarization promoted anti-inflammatory Mechanistically, ligand abolished neuroprotection via IRE1α/ASK1/JNK signaling pathway Importantly, overexpression PAD4 promotes or IRE1α effectively neurodestructive TBI.Altogether, first demonstrate that inhibition ameliorated neuroinflammation, apoptosis, deficits STING-dependent Thus, may provide promising therapeutic approach early management

Abstract The notion that the central nervous system is an immunologically immune-exempt organ has changed over past two decades, with increasing evidence of strong links and interactions between peripheral immune system, both in healthy state after ischemic hemorrhagic stroke. Although primary injury stroke certainly important, limited therapeutic efficacy, poor neurological prognosis high mortality have led researchers to realize secondary damage may also play important roles influencing long-term neuroinflammatory process one most influences on disease progression.

Neutrophils are the first responders among peripheral immune cells to infiltrate central nervous system following a traumatic brain injury (TBI), triggering neuroinflammation that can exacerbate secondary tissue damage. The precise molecular controls dictate inflammatory behavior of neutrophils post-TBI, however, remain largely elusive. Our comprehensive analysis landscape surrounding trauma in TBI mice has revealed significant alteration abundance β2 integrin (ITGB2), predominantly expressed by and closely associated with responses. Using fluid percussion (FPI) mouse model, we investigated therapeutic efficacy Rovelizumab, an agent blocks ITGB2. treatment demonstrated improvements neurologic function mice, attenuating blood–brain barrier permeability, mitigating oxidative stress mediator release, enhancing cerebral perfusion. Moreover, ITGB2 blockade effectively limited adherence, migration, infiltration neutrophils, impeded formation neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) upon their activation. Finally, it was mediates these effects mainly through its interaction intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM 1) endotheliocyte. These findings collectively illuminate as crucial switch governs adverse post-TBI could be targeted improve clinical outcome patients.
