Abstract

Clusterin is a glycoprotein highly expressed in response to tissue injury. Using clusterin-deficient (Clu-/-) mice, we investigated the role of clusterin after permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). In wild-type (WT) mice, clusterin mRNA displayed a sustained increase in the peri-infarct area from 14 to 30 days post-MCAO. Clusterin transcript was still present up to 90 days post-ischemia in astrocytes surrounding the core infarct. Western blot analysis also revealed an increase of clusterin in the ischemic hemisphere of WT mice, which culminates up to 30 days post-MCAO. Concomitantly, a worse structural restoration and higher number of GFAP-reactive astrocytes in the vicinity of the infarct scar were observed in Clu-/- as compared to WT mice. These findings go beyond previous data supporting a neuroprotective role of clusterin in early ischemic events in that they demonstrate that this glycoprotein plays a central role in the remodeling of ischemic damage.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
