Objective: The main goal of this application is to study the mechanism whereby the low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) modulates the permeability of the BBB under physiological conditions and after an ischemic stroke. Methods In Aim I we will test the hypothesis that under non-ischemic conditions astrocytic LRP1 preserves the integrity of the basement membrane-astrocyte (BM-A) interface by promoting the recruitment of integrins to the membrane of perivascular astrocytic end- feet processes and their binding to its ligands in the basement membrane (BM). In Aim II we propose that this function is lost under ischemic conditions when the cleavage of the extracellular domain of LRP1 from perivascular astrocytes activates a cell-signaling pathway that increases the permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In Aim III we will study in an animal model of ischemic stroke whether inhibition of LRP1 cleavage from perivascular astrocytes with the receptor-associated protein (RAP) prevents the harmful effects of endogenous tPA and/or rtPA on the permeability of the BBB. Research Plan In the first Aim of this application we will use astrocytic cell cultures and a cell adhesion assay. In the second Aim we will use astrocytic cultures, an in vitro model of the blood- brain barrier, real-time PCR, confocal microscopy and co-immunoprecipitation assays. In the third Aim we will use a nanocarrier that we engineered to selectively deliver its content to the BBB in the ischemic tissue and an animal model of cerebral ischemia.

客观的： 该应用的主要目标是研究低密度的机制 脂蛋白受体相关蛋白1（LRP1）调节BBB的渗透性 在生理条件下和缺血性中风之后。 方法 目的我将测试以下假设：在非缺血条件下星形胶质细胞LRP1 通过 促进整联蛋白募集到周围星形胶质细胞末端的膜上 脚的过程及其与地下膜（BM）中的配体的结合。在AIM II中 我们建议，当裂解的裂解在缺血条件下丢失 血管周星形胶质细胞中LRP1的细胞外结构域激活细胞信号 增加血脑屏障（BBB）的渗透性的途径。在AIM III中我们 将在缺血性中风的动物模型中研究是否抑制LRP1裂解 来自具有受体相关蛋白（RAP）的血管周星形胶质细胞可防止 内源性TPA和/或RTPA对BBB渗透性的有害影响。 研究计划 在此应用的第一个目的中，我们将使用星形细胞培养物和细胞粘附 测定。在第二个目标中，我们将使用星形胶质细胞培养物，这是血液的体外模型 脑屏障，实时PCR，共聚焦显微镜和共免疫沉淀测定。在 第三个目标我们将使用我们设计的纳米载体来有选择地交付其 对缺血组织中的BBB和脑缺血的动物模型。
