Disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity occurring during the early
onset of stroke is not only a consequence of, but also contributes to the further
progression of stroke. Although it has been well documented that brain
microvascular endothelial cells and astrocytes play a critical role in the
maintenance of BBB integrity, pericytes, sandwiched between endothelial cells and
astrocytes, remain poorly studied in the pathogenesis of stroke. Our findings
demonstrated that treatment of human brain microvascular pericytes with sodium
cyanide (NaCN) and glucose deprivation resulted in increased expression of
vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) via the activation of tyrosine kinase
Src, with downstream activation of mitogen activated protein kinase and PI3K/Akt
pathways and subsequent translocation of NF-?B into the nucleus. Conditioned
medium from NaCN-treated pericytes led to increased permeability of endothelial
cells, and this effect was significantly inhibited by VEGF-neutralizing antibody.
The in vivo relevance of these findings was further corroborated in the stroke
model of mice wherein the mice, demonstrated disruption of the BBB integrity and
concomitant increase in the expression of VEGF in the brain tissue as well as in
the isolated microvessel. These findings thus suggest the role of
pericyte-derived VEGF in modulating increased permeability of BBB during stroke.
Understanding the regulation of VEGF expression could open new avenues for the
development of potential therapeutic targets for stroke and other neurological
disease.
