ABSTRACT

The SUR1-TRPM4-AQP4 complex is overexpressed in the initial phase of edema induced after cerebral ischemia, allowing the massive internalization of Na+ and water within the brain micro endothelial cells (BMEC) of the blood-brain barrier. The expression of the Abcc8 gene encoding SUR1 depends on transcriptional factors that are responsive to oxidative stress. Because reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated during cerebral ischemia, we hypothesized that antioxidant compounds might be able to regulate the expression of SUR1. Therefore, the effect of resveratrol (RSV) on SUR1 expression was evaluated in the BMEC cell line HBEC-5i subjected to oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) for 2 h followed by different recovery times. Different concentrations of RSV were administered. ROS production was detected with etidine, and protein levels were evaluated by Western blotting and immunofluorescence. Intracellular Na+ levels and cellular swelling were detected by imaging; cellular metabolic activity and rupture of the cell membrane were detected by MTT and LDH release, respectively; and EMSA assays measured the activity of transcriptional factors. OGD/recovery increased ROS production induced the AKT kinase activity and the activation of SP1 and NFκB. SUR1 protein expression and intracellular Na+ concentration in the HBEC-5i cells increased after a few hours of OGD. These effects correlated with cellular swelling and necrotic cell death, responses that the administration of RSV prevented. Our results indicate that the ROS/AKT/SP1-NFκB pathway is involved in SUR1 expression during OGD/recovery in BMEC of the blood-brain barrier. Thus, RSV prevented cellular edema formation through modulation of SUR1 expression.
