DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose to identify molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate the endogenous neuroprotective phenomenon of rapid ischemic tolerance. Our prior studies have shown that rapid ischemic tolerance is mediated by selective protein degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Using proteomics we have identified a pattern of ubiquitinated proteins in rapid tolerance: many of the proteins are involved with the regulation or function of the post synaptic density. Following preconditioning ischemia protein degradation of key post-synaptic structural elements results in rearrangement of actin filaments and the retraction of dendritic spines. These changes in neuronal morphology following preconditioning ischemia result in altered NMDA cell signaling and decreased NMDA-induced neurotoxicity in tolerant cells. Therefore further understanding the mechanisms of rapid ischemic tolerance may identify morphological and cell signaling at the synapse, and reveal novel targets for neuroprotective therapies. Our central hypothesis for this proposal is thus: - Rapid ischemic tolerance following preconditioning ischemia results in a) actin cytoskeletal re-arrangement and synaptic reorganization leading to b) the disruption of NMDA receptor anchoring to the cytoskeleton, c) thus altering NMDA receptor function with resultant protection from harmful ischemia. These events occur rapidly- within one hour- and have relevance for acute stroke therapy. This project with test our hypothesis and well as investigating whether morphological re-organization is a generalized response to preconditioning agents. The project utilizes both in vivo and in vitro models of ischemia. The proposal has 4 aims. SPECIFIC AIM ONE: Test the hypothesis that proteins regulating actin cytoskeleton reorganization mediate neuroprotection following preconditioning ischemia. Specifically the effect of preconditioning ischemia on WAVE-1, CYFIP, and actin related protein 2/3 (Arp2/3) complex protein levels and interactions. In addition both pharmacological and viral transfer mediated peptide inhibitors of the Arp2/3 complex and upstream regulatory proteins will be investigated for their role in rapid ischemic tolerance. SPECIFIC AIM TWO: Test the hypothesis that preconditioning ischemia induces a change in NMDA receptor function. We will investigate the effect of preconditioning on NMDA receptor-mediated electrophysiological responses, calcium signaling, nitric oxide synthesis and cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB) phosphorylation. In addition we will investigate the effect of reconditioning on NMDA receptor interactions with, and activation of, the tyrosine kinases src and pyk. SPECIFIC AIM THREE: Test the hypothesis that dendritic spine loss, actin re-organization and NMDA protection is a common phenotype following pharmacological as well as ischemic preconditioning. We will test whether two pharmacological inducers of rapid tolerance (adenosine and diazoxide) have a protective phenotype similar to rapid ischemic tolerance. Specifically we will determine the effect of adenosine and diazoxide on actin filaments reorganization, dendritic spine density and tolerance to NMDA excitotoxicity. SPECIFIC AIM FOUR: Test the hypothesis that preconditioning ischemia induces synaptic structural re-organization in an in vivo model ischemia. To determine the therapeutic potential of our observations we will determine, in a focal model of ischemia, whether preconditioning induces changes to dendrite morphology, actin organization, NMDA receptor scaffolding and NMDA mediated excitotoxicity. The rapid and selective degradation of specific brain proteins induces a protective state and may reveal suitable targets for pharmacological therapeutics. Indeed, the long-term aim of these studies is to discover endogenous protective mechanisms that can be translated into effective rapid-acting, but long lasting, neuroprotective agents for stroke or where ischemia may be predicted for example, heart bypass surgery. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Our novel observations suggest that the morphology of neurons change as part of a protective mechanism following brief ischemia (stroke). It is our aim to investigate these mechanisms to help develop new therapeutics for stroke, or for circumstances where ischemia can be predicted, such as heart bypass surgery.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们建议确定调节快速缺血性耐受性内源性神经保护现象的分子和细胞机制。我们先前的研究表明，快速缺血性耐受性是通过泛素 - 蛋白酶体系统的选择性蛋白质降解来介导的。使用蛋白质组学，我们已经确定了一种快速耐受性的泛素化蛋白质模式：许多蛋白质与突触后密度的调节或功能有关。关键后突触后结构元素的预处理缺血蛋白降解导致肌动蛋白丝的重排和树突状棘的缩回。预处理缺血后神经元形态的这些变化导致NMDA细胞信号的改变，并降低了NMDA诱导的耐受细胞中NMDA诱导的神经毒性。因此，进一步了解快速缺血性耐受性的机制可以鉴定突触处的形态和细胞信号传导，并揭示神经保护疗法的新靶标。因此，我们对该提案的中心假设是： - 预处理缺血后的快速缺血性耐受性导致a）肌动蛋白细胞骨架重新安排和突触重组，从而导致b）NMDA受体锚定锚定为细胞骨架的破坏，从而改变了NMDA受体受到nmda受体功能，从而改变了nmda受体的功能。这些事件迅速发生 - 在一个小时内 - 与急性中风疗法相关。该项目通过测试我们的假设以及研究形态重组是否是对预处理的一般反应。该项目利用体内和体外缺血模型。该提案有4个目标。特定目的一：检验以下假设：调节肌动蛋白细胞骨架重组的蛋白质在预处理缺血后介导神经保护。具体而言，预处理缺血对波1，CYFIP和肌动蛋白相关的蛋白质2/3（ARP2/3）复杂蛋白水平和相互作用的影响。此外，将研究ARP2/3复合物和上游调节蛋白的药理和病毒转移介导的肽抑制剂，以研究其在快速缺血性耐受性中的作用。具体目标两个：检验预处理缺血引起NMDA受体功能的变化的假设。我们将研究预处理对NMDA受体介导的电生理反应，钙信号，一氧化氮合成和环状AMP反应元件结合蛋白（CREB）磷酸化的影响。此外，我们将研究重新调节对NMDA受体相互作用与酪氨酸激酶SRC和PYK的激活的影响。特定目的三：测试假说，即树突状脊柱丧失，肌动蛋白重组和NMDA保护是药理学和缺血性预处理后的常见表型。我们将测试两个快速耐受性（腺苷和二氮氧化物）是否具有类似于快速缺血性耐受性的保护性表型。具体而言，我们将确定腺苷和二氮氧化物对肌动蛋白细丝的影响，树突状脊柱密度以及对NMDA兴奋性毒性毒性的耐受性。特定目的四：检验以下假设：预处理缺血会在体内模型缺血中诱导突触结构重组。为了确定观察结果的治疗潜力，我们将在缺血的焦点模型中确定预处理是否会导致对树突形态，肌动蛋白组织，NMDA受体支架和NMDA介导的兴奋性毒性的变化。特定脑蛋白的快速和选择性降解会诱导保护状态，并可能揭示适当的药理治疗靶标。实际上，这些研究的长期目的是发现内源性保护机制，这些机制可以转化为有效的快速作用但持久的，神经保护剂的中风或可能预测的缺血，例如心脏搭桥手术。公共卫生相关性：我们的新颖观察结果表明，在短暂缺血（Stroke）之后，神经元的形态变化是保护机制的一部分。我们的目的是研究这些机制，以帮助开发中风的新疗法，或者在可以预测缺血的情况下，例如心脏搭桥手术。
