HISTOLOGICAL COMPARISON OF REPEATED MILD WEIGHT DROP AND LATERAL FLUID PERCUSSION INJURY MODELS OF TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY IN FEMALE AND MALE RATS.
Abstract: In preclinical traumatic brain injury (TBI) research, the animal model should be selected based on the research question and outcome measures of interest. Direct side-by-side comparisons of different injury models are essential for informing such decisions. Here, we used immunohistochemistry to compare the outcomes from two common models of TBI, lateral fluid percussion (LFP) and repeated mild weight drop (rmWD) in adult female and male Wistar rats. Specifically, we measured the effects of LFP and rmWD on markers of cerebrovascular and tight junction disruption, neuroinflammation, mature neurons, and perineuronal nets in the cortical site of injury, cortex adjacent to injury, dentate gyrus, and the CA 2/3 area of the hippocampus. Animals were randomized into the LFP or rmWD group. On day 1, the LFP group received a craniotomy, and on day 4, injury (or sham procedure; randomly assigned). The rmWD animals underwent either injury or isoflurane only (randomly assigned) on each of those 4 days. Seven days after injury, brains were harvested for analysis. Overall, our observations revealed that the most significant disruptions were evident in response to LFP, followed by craniotomy only, whereas rmWD animals showed the least residual changes compared with isoflurane-only controls, supporting consideration of rmWD as a mild injury. LFP led to longer-lasting disruptions, perhaps more representative of moderate TBI. We also report that craniotomy and LFP produced greater disruptions in females relative to males. These findings will assist the field in the selection of animal models based on target severity of postinjury outcomes and support the inclusion of both sexes and appropriate control groups.
期刊介绍:
SHOCK®: Injury, Inflammation, and Sepsis: Laboratory and Clinical Approaches includes studies of novel therapeutic approaches, such as immunomodulation, gene therapy, nutrition, and others. The mission of the Journal is to foster and promote multidisciplinary studies, both experimental and clinical in nature, that critically examine the etiology, mechanisms and novel therapeutics of shock-related pathophysiological conditions. Its purpose is to excel as a vehicle for timely publication in the areas of basic and clinical studies of shock, trauma, sepsis, inflammation, ischemia, and related pathobiological states, with particular emphasis on the biologic mechanisms that determine the response to such injury. Making such information available will ultimately facilitate improved care of the traumatized or septic individual.
