Astrocyte-derived microparticles initiate a neuroinflammatory cycle due to carbon monoxide poisoning

| Sumario: | We hypothesized that carbon monoxide (CO) establishes an inflammatory cycle mediated by microparticles (MPs). Mice exposed to a CO protocol (1000 ppm for 40 min and then 3000 ppm for 20 min) that causes neuroinflammation exhibit NF-κB activation in astrocytes leading to generation of MPs expressing thrombospondin-1(TSP-1) that collect in deep cervical lymph nodes draining the brain glymphatic system. TSP-1 bearing MPs gain access to the blood stream where they activate neutrophils to generate a new family of MPs, and also stimulate endothelial cells as documented by leakage of intravenous 2000 kDa dextran. At the brain microvasculature, neutrophil and MPs sequestration, and myeloperoxidase activity result in elevations of the p65 subunit of NF-κB, serine 536 phosphorylated p65, CD36, and loss of astrocyte aquaporin-4 that persist for at least 7 days. Knock-out mice lacking the CD36 membrane receptor are resistant to all CO inflammatory changes. Events triggered by CO are recapitulated in naïve wild type mice injected with cervical node MPs from CO-exposed mice, but not control mice. All MPs-mediated events are inhibited with a NF-κB inhibitor, a myeloperoxidase inhibitor, or anti-TSP-1 antibodies. We conclude that astrocyte-derived MPs expressing TSP-1 establish a feed-forward neuroinflammatory cycle involving endothelial CD36-to-astrocyte NF-κB crosstalk. As there is currently no treatment for CO-induced neurological sequelae, these findings pose several possible sites for therapeutic interventions. |
