项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Heart failure (HF) patients show brain injury in regions which control the autonomic (insular lobes), cognition (hippocampus, frontal cortex), and breathing (cerebellum) functions. Abnormalities in these sites are associated with symptoms which are linked to increased morbidity and mortality and decreased quality of life in HF. However, the underlying cause of brain injury in these areas in HF is unclear. Alteration in blood- brain barrier (BBB) function is a potential cause of brain damage in HF, as functional changes in the BBB are associated with neural injury in other diseases. However, there are no published reports of BBB changes in HF or regarding any association between BBB function and brain damage in this condition. Using non-invasive brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures, our preliminary studies are the first to report BBB abnormalities (via diffusion-weighted pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling [pCASL] procedures) in HF and that these BBB changes are associated with brain injury (as examined by diffusion tensor imaging based mean diffusivity [MD], an MRI measure of tissue integrity) in the insular lobes, hippocampus, frontal cortices, and cerebellar regions in HF subjects compared to controls. However, while promising, the sample size in this preliminary study was quite small and did not allow us to control for important covariates, such as age and gender. Therefore, the specific aims of this proposal are to: 1) compare global BBB function (calculated from diffusion-weighted pCASL) between HF and age- and gender-matched control subjects; 2) compare regional brain injury (assessed by MD) in the insular lobes, hippocampus, frontal cortices, and cerebellum between HF and age- and gender-matched healthy controls; 3) examine the relationship between altered BBB function (as indicated by diffusion-weighted pCASL data) and insular, hippocampal, frontal, and cerebellar injury (as indicated by MD measures) in HF patients. In summary, HF patients show significant regional brain injury in areas that control autonomic, cognitive, and breathing functions. A potential cause of this brain injury may be alterations in the BBB function. Abnormal BBB activity has not been reported previously in HF, but our preliminary studies have shown that BBB function is compromised and that this alteration is associated with brain injury in areas which control autonomic, cognitive, and breathing functions. The proposed study will examine global BBB function, assess regional tissue injury, and evaluate the relationships between BBB function and brain injury. Information from this study has the potential to disclose the processes contributing to brain injury in HF. Thus, it has important implications on identification of effectve treatments for HF by repairing BBB function, as used in other conditions (such as stroke), which could dramatically improve the mortality, morbidity, and quality of life in this high risk patient population.
描述(由申请人提供):心力衰竭(HF)患者表现为控制自主神经(岛叶)、认知(海马、额叶皮质)和呼吸(小脑)功能的脑损伤。这些部位的异常与心衰患者发病率和死亡率增加以及生活质量下降相关的症状有关。然而,心衰患者这些区域脑损伤的潜在原因尚不清楚。血脑屏障(BBB)功能的改变是心衰患者脑损伤的潜在原因,因为血脑屏障功能的改变与其他疾病的神经损伤有关。然而,目前还没有关于HF患者血脑屏障改变的报道,也没有关于这种情况下血脑屏障功能与脑损伤之间的任何关联的报道。使用非侵入性脑磁共振成像(MRI)程序,我们的初步研究首次报道了HF中的血脑屏障异常(通过弥散加权伪连续动脉自旋标记[pCASL]程序),并且这些血脑屏障变化与脑损伤有关(通过基于弥散张量成像的平均扩散率[MD],一种组织完整性的MRI测量),包括岛叶、海马、额叶、和小脑区域的差异。然而,虽然有希望,但本初步研究的样本量很小,无法控制重要的协变量,如年龄和性别。因此,本提案的具体目的是:1)比较HF与年龄和性别匹配的对照组之间的整体血脑卒中功能(由扩散加权pCASL计算);2)比较HF与年龄和性别匹配的健康对照者的岛叶、海马、额皮质和小脑区域脑损伤(以MD评估);3)研究HF患者血脑屏障功能改变(如弥散加权pCASL数据所示)与岛叶、海马、额叶和小脑损伤(如MD测量所示)之间的关系。总之,心衰患者在控制自主神经、认知和呼吸功能的区域表现出明显的区域性脑损伤。脑损伤的一个潜在原因可能是血脑屏障功能的改变。先前在心衰患者中未见血脑屏障活动异常的报道,但我们的初步研究表明血脑屏障功能受损,这种改变与控制自主神经、认知和呼吸功能区域的脑损伤有关。该研究将检查脑屏障功能,评估局部组织损伤,并评估脑屏障功能与脑损伤之间的关系。这项研究的信息有可能揭示导致心衰脑损伤的过程。因此,这对于通过修复血脑屏障功能来识别HF的有效治疗具有重要意义,如用于其他疾病(如中风),这可以显着提高这一高危患者人群的死亡率、发病率和生活质量。
