Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Brain hemorrhage was found between 13 and 16 days after acute whole-body 9.5 Gy Co-γ irradiation (IR). This study tested countermeasures mitigating brain hemorrhage and increasing survival from IR. Previously, we found that pegylated G-CSF therapy (PEG) (i.e., Neulasta, an FDA-approved drug) improved survival post-IR by 20-40%. This study investigated whether Ciprofloxacin (CIP) could enhance PEG-induced survival and whether IR-induced brain hemorrhage could be mitigated by PEG alone or combined with CIP.

METHODS

B6D2F1 female mice were exposed to Co-γ-radiation. CIP was fed to mice for 21 days. PEG was injected on days 1, 8, and 15. 30-day survival and weight loss were studied in mice treated with vehicles, CIP, PEG, or PEG + CIP. For the early time point study, blood and sternums on days 2, 4, 9, and 15 and brains on day 15 post-IR were collected. Platelet numbers, brain hemorrhage, and histopathology were analyzed. The cerebellum/pons/medulla oblongata were detected with glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), p53, p16, interleukin-18 (IL-18), ICAM1, Claudin 2, ZO-1, and complement protein 3 (C3).

RESULTS

CIP + PEG enhanced survival after IR by 85% vs. the 30% improvement by PEG alone. IR depleted platelets, which was mitigated by PEG or CIP + PEG. Brain hemorrhage, both surface and intracranial, was observed, whereas the sham mice displayed no hemorrhage. CIP or CIP + PEG significantly mitigated brain hemorrhage. IR reduced GFAP levels that were recovered by CIP or CIP + PEG, but not by PEG alone. IR increased IL-18 levels on day 4 only, which was inhibited by CIP alone, PEG alone, or PEG + CIP. IR increased C3 on day 4 and day 15 and that coincided with the occurrence of brain hemorrhage on day 15. IR increased phosphorylated p53 and p53 levels, which was mitigated by CIP, PEG or PEG + CIP. P16, Claudin 2, and ZO-1 were not altered; ICAM1 was increased.

DISCUSSION

CIP + PEG enhanced survival post-IR more than PEG alone. The Concurrence of brain hemorrhage, C3 increases and p53 activation post-IR suggests their involvement in the IR-induced brain impairment. CIP + PEG effectively mitigated the brain lesions, suggesting effectiveness of CIP + PEG therapy for treating the IR-induced brain hemorrhage by recovering GFAP and platelets and reducing C3 and p53.

摘要

简介

脑出血发生在急性全身 9.5GyCo-γ 照射后 13 至 16 天。本研究测试了减轻脑出血和提高辐射后存活率的对策。此前,我们发现聚乙二醇化 G-CSF 治疗(PEG)(即 FDA 批准的药物 Neulasta)可将辐射后的存活率提高 20-40%。本研究探讨了环丙沙星(CIP)是否可以增强 PEG 诱导的存活率,以及 PEG 单独或与 CIP 联合是否可以减轻辐射引起的脑出血。

方法

B6D2F1 雌性小鼠接受 Co-γ 辐射。用 CIP 喂养小鼠 21 天。PEG 于第 1、8 和 15 天注射。用载体、CIP、PEG 或 PEG+CIP 处理的小鼠研究 30 天存活率和体重减轻。在辐射后第 2、4、9 和 15 天以及第 15 天收集血液和胸骨以及大脑,以研究血小板数量、脑出血和组织病理学。用胶质纤维酸性蛋白(GFAP)、p53、p16、白细胞介素 18(IL-18)、ICAM1、Claudin2、ZO-1 和补体蛋白 3(C3)检测小脑/脑桥/延髓。

结果

CIP+PEG 使辐射后的存活率提高了 85%,而 PEG 单独使存活率提高了 30%。辐射耗尽了血小板,PEG 或 CIP+PEG 可减轻血小板的减少。观察到脑出血,包括表面和颅内出血,而假手术组小鼠无出血。CIP 或 CIP+PEG 可显著减轻脑出血。IR 降低了 CIP 或 CIP+PEG 恢复的 GFAP 水平,但 PEG 单独不能恢复。IR 仅在第 4 天增加了 IL-18 水平,而 CIP 单独、PEG 单独或 CIP+PEG 可抑制该水平的增加。IR 在第 4 天和第 15 天增加了 C3,这与第 15 天的脑出血发生时间一致。IR 增加了磷酸化 p53 和 p53 水平,CIP、PEG 或 CIP+PEG 可减轻该水平的增加。p16、Claudin2 和 ZO-1 没有改变;ICAM1 增加。

讨论

CIP+PEG 使辐射后的存活率提高了 85%,而 PEG 单独使存活率提高了 30%。IR 后脑出血、C3 增加和 p53 激活同时发生,表明它们参与了 IR 引起的脑损伤。CIP+PEG 可有效减轻脑损伤,提示 CIP+PEG 疗法通过恢复 GFAP 和血小板、降低 C3 和 p53 来治疗 IR 引起的脑出血的有效性。
