Blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption caused by reperfusion injury after ischemic stroke is an intractable event conducive to further injury. Brain pericytes play a vital role in maintaining BBB integrity by interacting with other components of the BBB. In this study, we found that sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor (S1PR)2 expressed in pericytes was significantly up-regulated after ischemia in vivo and in vitro. By using a S1PR2 antagonist (JTE-013), we showed that S1PR2 plays a critical role in the induction of BBB permeability of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) rats and the in vitro BBB model. Furthermore, we discovered that S1PR2 may decrease N-cadherin expression and increase pericyte migration via NF-kappa B p65 signal and found that S1PR2 could be regulated by miR-149-5p negatively, which was decreased in the ischemic boundary zone and cultured pericytes after ischemia. Overexpression of miR-149-5p in cultured pericytes substantially increased N-cadherin expression and decreased pericyte migration, which decreased BBB leakage in the in vitro model. Up-regulating miR-149-5p by intracerebroventricular injection of agomir-149-5p attenuated BBB permeability and improved the outcomes of tMCAO rats significantly. Thus, our data suggest that miR-149-5p may serve as a potential target for treatment of BBB disruption after ischemic stroke.
