Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating stroke type with high mortality and disability. Inflammatory response induced by macrophages/microglia (M/Ms) activation is one of the leading causes of brain damage after ICH. The anti-inflammatory effects of resveratrol (RSV) have already been evaluated in several models of central nervous system disease. Therefore, we designed the current study to assess the role of RSV in ICH and explore its downstream mechanism related to Sirt3. The autologous artery blood injection was administrated to create an ICH mouse model. M/Ms-specific Sirt3 knockout Sirt3f/f; CX3CR1-Cre (Sirt3 cKO) mouse was used to evaluate the role of Sirt3 on RSV treatment. Neuronal function and hematoma volume were assessed to indicate brain damage. The pro-inflammatory marker (CD16) and cytokine (TNF) were measured to evaluate the inflammatory effects. Our results showed that RSV treatment alleviates neurological deficits, reduces cell death, and increases hematoma clearance on day 7 after ICH. In addition, RSV effectively suppressed CD16+ M/Ms activation and decreased TNF release. In Sirt3 cKO mice, the protective effects of RSV were abolished, indicating the potential mechanism of RSV was partially due to Sirt3 signaling activation. Therefore, RSV could be a promising candidate and therapeutic agent for ICH and Sirt3 could be a potential target to inhibit inflammation.
