Abstract

In patients with stroke and neurodegenerative diseases, overactivation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) causes harmful effects by inducing apoptosis, necrosis, neuroinflammation, and immune dysregulation. The current study investigated the neuroprotective effect of a novel PARP-1 inhibitor, JPI-289, in an animal model of ischemic stroke. A transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO, 2 h) model was used to determine the therapeutic effect and the most effective dose and time window of administration of JPI-289. We also investigated the long-term outcomes of treatment with JPI-289 by diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) MRI and by measuring neurological function at 24 h, 7 days, and 28 days after MCAO. The most effective dose and time window of administration of JPI-289 was 10 mg/kg administered 2 h after MCAO with reperfusion. Twenty-four hours after MCAO, infarct volume was reduced by 53% and the number of apoptotic cells was reduced by 56% compared with control. JPI-289 also reduced infarct volume by 16% in the permanent MCAO model. In an MRI-based study, initial infarct volume, as measured using DWI, was similar in the control and JPI-289-treated groups. However, infarct volume and brain swelling were significantly reduced in the group treated with JPI-289 (2 h) at 24 h and 7 days after MCAO. Neurological functions also improved in the group treated with JPI-289 (2 h) until 28 days after MCAO. Inhibition of PARP-1 has neuroprotective effects (reduction of infarct volume and brain swelling) in both tMCAO and pMCAO models of ischemic stroke.
