Anti-Nogo-A antibody infusion 24 hours after experimental stroke improved behavioral outcome and corticospinal plasticity in normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats
Abstract
Nogo-A is a myelin-associated neurite outgrowth inhibitory protein limiting recovery and plasticity after central nervous system injury. In this study, a purified monoclonal anti-Nogo-A antibody (7B12) was evaluated in two rat stroke models with a time-to-treatment of 24 hours after injury. After photothrombotic cortical injury (PCI) and intraventricular infusion of a control mouse immunoglobulin G for 2 weeks, long-term contralateral forepaw function was reduced to about 55% of prelesion performance until the latest time point investigated (9 weeks). Forepaw function was significantly better in the 7B12-treated group 6 to 9 weeks after PCI, and reached about 70% of prelesion levels. Cortical infarcts were also produced in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) by permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). In the control group, forepaw function remained between 40% and 50% of prelesion levels 4 to 12 weeks after MCAO. In contrast, 7B12-treated groups showed significant improvement between 4 and 7 weeks after MCAO from around 40% of prelesion levels at week 4 to about 60% to 70% at 7 to 12 weeks after MCAO. Treatment in both models was efficacious without influencing infarct volume or brain atrophy. Neuroanatomically in the spinal cord, a significant increase of midline crossing corticospinal fibers originating in the unlesioned sensorimotor cortex was found in 7B12-treated groups, reaching 2.3 +/- 1.5% after PCI (control group: 1.1 +/- 0.5%) and 4.5 +/- 2.2% after MCAO in SHR rats (control group: 1.8 +/- 0.8%). Behavioral outcome and the presence of midline crossing fibers in the cervical spinal cord correlated significantly, suggesting a possible contribution of the crossing fibers for forepaw function after PCI and MCAO. The results suggest that specific anti-Nogo-A antibodies bear potential as a new rehabilitative treatment approach for ischemic stroke with a prolonged time-to-treatment window.

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.
