tPA Variant tPA-S481A prevents impairment of cerebral autoregulation during hypotension and histopathology after TBI William M. Armstead, John Riley, Serge Yarovoi, Douglas B. Cines, Douglas H. Smith, and Abd Al-Roof Higazi  Departments of Anesthesiology and Critical Care, Pharmacology, Pathology, and Neurosurgery University of Pennsylvania
Freeman, Udomphorn, Armstead, Fisk, Vavilala Anesthesiology 108:  588-595, 2008. Impairment of autoregulation correlates with GCS Impaired Cerebral Autoregulation MAP or CPP CBF (ml/100g/min)   Intact Cerebral Autoregulation MAP or CPP CBF (ml/100g/min)
Cerebral autoregulation (ARI) is more impaired after  moderate-severe TBI in children < 4 years. Glasgow outcome score (6 month GOS) is worse after moderate-severe TBI in children < 4 yrs.

Plasminogen activators, NMDA, and outcome in TBI ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
tPA contributes to impaired NMDA cerebrovasodilation through activation of JNK and ERK MAPK.  Neurologic Res, in press. Impaired NMDA receptor mediated cerebrovasodilation contributes to disturbed autoregulation during hypotension after TBI.  Develop Brain Res 139: 19-28, 2002.
Purpose ,[object Object],Hypothesis Generation of a mutant tPA that competes with wild type tPA for binding to NMDA receptors and protects it from cleavage/activation by wild type tPA will improve outcome after TBI. In the context of the neurovascular unit, impaired cerebral hemodyanamics contributes to outcome.
General Methodology ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Advantages of the piglet model 1-5 day old pig ≈ 1-2 yr old child gyrencephalic brain more white than grey matter selective vulnerability of white matter
FPI produces pial artery vasoconstriction, which was  Blocked by tPA-S481A (1 mg/kg iv) 30 min post injury Pial artery dilation during hypotension blunted after FPI, but tPA-S481A prevented such impairment.
FPI was associated with marked neuronal cell loss in CA1 and CA3 hippocampus, which was prevented by tPA-S481A
Conclusions ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
