#METABOLOMICS WORKBENCH zhouyiyang_20250221_183530 DATATRACK_ID:5665 STUDY_ID:ST003767 ANALYSIS_ID:AN006184 PROJECT_ID:PR002350 VERSION 1 CREATED_ON February 24, 2025, 4:44 pm #PROJECT PR:PROJECT_TITLE N-acetylneuraminic Acid may play Links Secondary Neurodegeneration and Cognitive PR:PROJECT_TITLE Impairment in Cortical Photothrombotic Stroke Mouse Model PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY ABSTRACT Background: Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is a major sequelae PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY of ischemic stroke (IS), but the associated mechanisms remain unclear. Recent PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY studies have shown that cortical stroke can cause distal brain disturbances, PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY leading to cognitive decline. This study aims to investigate the PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY neuropathological and metabolic changes over time in the remote brain region PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY associated with cognitive impairment after cortical stroke. Methods: We assessed PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY cognitive function in photothrombotic (PT) mice for 84 days and identified PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY distal brain regions with secondary neurodegeneration (SND) using voxel-based PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY morphometry (VBM). Integrated untargeted and targeted metabolomics method was PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY established to comprehensively analyze the molecular mechanism of SND in this PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY brain region and screen the potential predictive biomarker of PSCI. Furthermore, PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY the mechanism of the biomarker with PSCI and SND was studied in vitro. Results: PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY The results show that recent memory impairment, remote dysfunction, and anxiety PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY persisted for 84 days in PT mice. The hippocampus of cognitively impaired PT PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY mice developed SND and metabolic disorders, particularly oxidative stress, lipid PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY peroxidation, and inflammation. N-acetylneuramic acid (Neu5Ac) was screened in PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY the hippocampus of mice, serum of mice and 154 IS patients. Neu5Ac promotes PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY oxidative stress and inflammation in microglia. Conclusions: Our results suggest PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY that hippocampal SND is closely related to cognitive impairment in PT mice, PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY while oxidative stress and inflammation are important factors in hippocampal PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY SND. Neu5Ac may aggravate PSCI by causing hippocampal SND through inducting of PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY microglia-driven oxidative stress and inflammation, and it may thus be a PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY potential predictive biomarker of PSCI.

CO:SAMPLE_TYPE Hippocampus #TREATMENT TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY After one week of acclimatization, 8-week-old C57BL/6J mice were randomly TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY divided into a sham surgery group (Sham) and a photothrombotic surgery group TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY (Photothrombotic surgery, PT). We utilized a PT stroke model targeting the TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY frontal cortex of mice, which has been demonstrated to be suitable for studying TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY post-stroke dementia. Mice in the PT group were anesthetized with 2% isoflurane TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY and maintained under general anesthesia throughout the procedure. Rose Bengal TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY (200 µL, 10 mg/mL in sterile saline solution, Sigma-Aldrich, USA) was TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY intraperitoneally injected and circulated for 8 minutes. Subsequently, a cold TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY light source with a diameter of 4.5 mm was used to irradiate the exposed skull TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY for 15 minutes, positioned 3.5 mm to the left of the bregma, targeting the left TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY frontal lobe. The Sham group underwent the same surgical procedure but was TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY administered 200 µL of sterile saline (0.9% NaCl, Pfizer, Australia) instead of TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY Rose Bengal. Both the Sham and PT groups were then further divided based on the TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY time post-stroke into T1 (C1 n=11, M1 n=11), T2 (C2 n=11, M2 n=11), and T3 (C3 TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY n=11, M3 n=11) groups, where C1, C2, and C3 represent the Sham groups at 14, 32, TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY and 84 days post-stroke, respectively, and M1, M2, and M3 represent the PT TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY groups at 14, 32, and 84 days post-stroke, respectively. #SAMPLEPREP SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY Take 10 mg of mouse hippocampus in a 1.5 mL EP tube, add 400 µL of cold SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY acetonitrile:methanol (v:v = 1:1) to 200 µL of plasma to precipitate proteins, SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY mix for 60 seconds, and then centrifuge to collect the supernatant. Sequentially SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY add methanol:water:dichloromethane (v:v:v = 1:1:2), three mass SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY spectrometry-grade extraction solvents, homogenize at 60 Hz for 2 minutes, and SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY let stand at 4°C for 30 minutes. Centrifuge at 4°C, 15000 rpm for 15 minutes. SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY The liquid separates into two layers: proteins and tissue precipitate in the SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY middle, the upper layer is a methanol-water solution mainly containing polar SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY small molecules, and the lower layer is a dichloromethane solution mainly SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY composed of lipid-soluble small molecules. Take the upper layer solution, dry it SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY under N2, and reconstitute it with 200 µL of 50% acetonitrile aqueous solution SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY containing an internal standard (2-chlorophenylalanine). Centrifuge at 4°C, SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY 15000 rpm for 15 minutes, then draw 60 µL and inject it into a liquid phase SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY vial with a glass liner for analysis. Take the lower layer solution, dry it SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY under N2, and reconstitute it with 100 µL of chloroform SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY (dichloromethane):methanol = 1:1 solution containing an internal standard SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY (2-chlorophenylalanine). Centrifuge at 4°C, 15000 rpm for 15 minutes, then draw SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY 100 µL and inject it into a liquid phase vial with a glass liner for analysis. SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY Simultaneously, take 10 µL of all supernatant to prepare Quality Control (QC) SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY samples to monitor the stability of the instrument acquisition method. #CHROMATOGRAPHY CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_TYPE Reversed phase CH:INSTRUMENT_NAME Waters Acquity CH:COLUMN_NAME Phenomenex Kinetex C18 (100 x 2.1 mm, 2.6 µm) CH:SOLVENT_A 100% Water; 5 mM ammonium acetate; 0.1% formic acid CH:SOLVENT_B 100% Acetonitrile CH:FLOW_GRADIENT 0-0.5 min 98% B;0.5-13 min,98-40% B;13-3.1 min,40-98% B;13.1-18 CH:FLOW_GRADIENT min,98-98% CH:FLOW_RATE 0.3 mL/min CH:COLUMN_TEMPERATURE 35°C #ANALYSIS AN:ANALYSIS_TYPE MS #MS MS:INSTRUMENT_NAME ABI Sciex 6600 TripleTOF MS:INSTRUMENT_TYPE Triple TOF MS:MS_TYPE ESI MS:ION_MODE NEGATIVE MS:MS_COMMENTS The electrospray ionization (ESI) negtive ion mode was employed, with a mass MS:MS_COMMENTS detection range of 80-1000 m/z, and the collision energy for secondary fragments MS:MS_COMMENTS was set at -40±15 V. After data acquisition, the raw data were preprocessed MS:MS_COMMENTS using Markerview software. The main parameters included: peak extraction time of MS:MS_COMMENTS 0.5-15 minutes, retention time deviation of 0.1 minutes, mass-to-charge ratio MS:MS_COMMENTS deviation of 10 ppm, and peak intensity >500. Metabolites with an overall MS:MS_COMMENTS detection rate of less than 80% were excluded from the analysis. An Excel MS:MS_COMMENTS spreadsheet containing m/z, retention time (RT), and peak intensity was MS:MS_COMMENTS exported. Prior to the next step of analysis, peaks with intensities below 500 MS:MS_COMMENTS were excluded. The coefficient of variation (CV: standard deviation/mean × MS:MS_COMMENTS 100%) was calculated, and peaks with CV% >30% were identified as MS:MS_COMMENTS high-variability peaks and thus also excluded. Multivariate statistical analysis MS:MS_COMMENTS of the data was performed using SMICA-P software (v14.0, Umetrics, Umea, MS:MS_COMMENTS Sweden), primarily including principal component analysis (PCA). PCA is an MS:MS_COMMENTS unsupervised model used to examine changes in the metabolic patterns of the MS:MS_COMMENTS mouse hippocampus. Significant differential metabolites were screened through MS:MS_COMMENTS univariate statistical analysis, and volcano plots were generated to represent MS:MS_COMMENTS these findings. Metabolite identification was primarily based on accurate m/z MS:MS_COMMENTS values and MS/MS characteristic fragments, using software such as MS-DIAL (Mass MS:MS_COMMENTS spectrometry-data independent analysis software), MetDNA2 MS:MS_COMMENTS (http://metdna.zhulab.cn/), and One-MAP (http://www.5omics.com/). These MS:MS_COMMENTS identified metabolites were further validated using HMDB (https://hmdb.ca/). MS:MS_COMMENTS Pathway enrichment analysis was conducted via Metaboanalyst MS:MS_COMMENTS (https://www.metaboanalyst.ca/).
