    Abstract Functional ultrasound (FUS) has emerged as a novel imaging method to reliably assess relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) and infer perfusion, with good spatiotemporal resolution. Brunner and colleagues provide what appears to be its first application to characterize peri-infarct spreading depolarizations (SDs) in experimental stroke through recording of transient hyperemic events. They also report incomplete overlap between acute perfusion deficits and subsequent infarct distribution, specifically noting a rostral expansion to involve penumbral territory from which propagating depolarizations had preferentially originated. This observation would not be straightforward using other methodologies. Other strengths and limitations of the study are considered.

    Abstract Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is the second most common type of stroke and a major cause of mortality and disability worldwide. Despite advances in surgical interventions and acute ICH management, there is currently no effective therapy to improve functional outcomes in patients. Recently, there has been tremendous progress uncovering new pathophysiological mechanisms underlying ICH that may pave the way for the development of therapeutic interventions. Here, we highlight emerging targets, but also existing gaps in preclinical animal modelling that prevent their exploitation. We particularly focus on (1) ICH aetiology, (2) the haematoma, (3) inflammation, and (4) post-ICH pathology. It is important to recognize that beyond neurons and the brain, other cell types and organs are crucially involved in ICH pathophysiology and successful interventions likely will need to address the entire organism. This review will spur the development of successful therapeutic interventions for ICH and advanced animal models that better reflect its aetiology and pathophysiology.

    Abstract E-selectin is expressed on endothelial cells in response to inflammatory cytokines and mediates leukocyte rolling and extravasation. However, studies have been hampered by lack of experimental approaches to monitor expression in real time in living cells. Here, NanoLuc Binary Technology (NanoBiT) in conjunction with CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing was used to tag endogenous E-selectin in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with the 11 amino acid nanoluciferase fragment HiBiT. Addition of the membrane-impermeable complementary fragment LgBiT allowed detection of cell surface expression. This allowed the effect of inflammatory mediators on E-selectin expression to be monitored in real time in living endothelial cells. NanoBiT combined with CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing allows sensitive monitoring of real-time changes in cell surface expression of E-selectin and offers a powerful tool for future drug discovery efforts aimed at this important inflammatory protein.

    Abstract Following ischemic stroke, substance P (SP)-mediated neurogenic inflammation is associated with profound blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction, cerebral edema, and elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). SP elicits its effects by binding the neurokinin 1 tachykinin receptor (NK1-R), with administration of an NK1-R antagonist shown to ameliorate BBB dysfunction and cerebral edema in rodent and permanent ovine stroke models. Given the importance of reperfusion in clinical stroke, this study examined the efficacy of NK1-R antagonist treatment in reducing cerebral edema and ICP in an ovine model of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAo).

    Abstract Despite promising results in preclinical stroke research, translation of experimental data into clinical therapy has been difficult. One reason is the heterogeneity of the disease with outcomes ranging from complete recovery to continued decline. A successful treatment in one situation may be ineffective, or even harmful, in another. To overcome this, treatment must be tailored according to the individual based on identification of the risk of damage and estimation of potential recovery. Neuroimaging, particularly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), could be the tool for a rapid comprehensive assessment in acute stroke with the potential to guide treatment decisions for a better clinical outcome. This review describes current MRI techniques used to characterize stroke in a preclinical research setting, as well as in the clinic. Furthermore, we will discuss current developments and the future potential of neuroimaging for stroke outcome prediction.

    Abstract Background: Connectome analysis of neuroimaging data is a rapidly expanding field that offers the potential to diagnose, characterize, and predict neurological disease. Animal models provide insight into biological mechanisms that underpin disease, but connectivity approaches are currently lagging in the rodent.
    Methods: We present a pipeline adapted for structural and functional connectivity analysis of the mouse brain, and we tested it in a mouse model of vascular dementia.
    Results: We observed lacunar infarctions, microbleeds, and progressive white matter change across 6 months. For the first time, we report that default mode network activity is disrupted in the mouse model. We also identified specific functional circuitry that was vulnerable to vascular stress, including perturbations in a sensorimotor, visual resting state network that were accompanied by deficits in visual and spatial memory tasks.
    Conclusions: These findings advance our understanding of the mouse connectome and provide insight into how it can be altered by vascular insufficiency.
