BACKGROUND: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) causes severe sensorimotor dysfunction and cognitive decline which are aggravated by secondary brain injury, yet there are no effective management to alleviate these outcomes. Pyroptosis is strongly related to neuroinflammation, which plays a crucial role in the pathophysiological processes of secondary brain injury after ICH. OXT (oxytocin), as a pleiotropic neuropeptide, has multiple functions including anti-inflammation and antioxidation. This study aims to investigate the role of OXT in improving ICH outcomes and the underlying mechanisms.
METHODS: C57BL/6 mice were used to establish the ICH model by autologous blood injection. OXT was administered intranasally (0.2 μg/g) after ICH. Combing behavioral tests, Western blot, immunofluorescence staining, electron microscopy, and pharmacological approaches, we evaluated the effect of intranasal OXT application on neurological outcomes after ICH and explored the underlying mechanism.
RESULTS: Endogenous OXT level was decreased, whereas OXTR (oxytocin receptor) expression was increased after ICH. OXT treatment improved the short-term and long-term neurological functions and alleviated neuronal pyroptosis and neuroinflammation. In addition, OXT reduced excessive mitochondrial fission and mitochondrial-derived oxidative stress 3 days after ICH. OXT decreased the expression of pyroptotic and proinflammatory factors including NLRP3 (NOD-like receptor protein 3), ASC (apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD), GSDMD (gasdermin D), caspase-1, IL (interleukin)-1β, and IL-18 and increased the expression of p-PKA (phospho-protein kinase A) and p-DRP1 (S637; DRP1 [dynamin-related protein 1] phosphorylation at Ser637). OXT-induced neuroprotective effects were blocked by either OXTR inhibitor or PKA inhibitor.
CONCLUSIONS: Intranasal application of OXT can ameliorate neurological deficits and alleviate neural pyroptosis, inflammation, and excessive mitochondrial fission via OXTR/p-PKA/DRP1 signaling pathway after ICH. Thus, OXT administration may be a potential therapeutic strategy to improve the prognosis of ICH.
