1 Research progress on the use of estrogen receptor agonist for treatment of spinal cord injury Swapan K. Ray, PhD Professor, Department of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology USC School of Medicine, Columbia, SC SC SCIRF Presentation at HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital, Columbia, SC May 2, 2014

2 Spinal cord injury (SCI) and treatment strategies SCI at lower spinal cord regions (thoracic, lumbar, or sacral) causes paraplegia. SCI at cervical region causes quadriplegia that may affect all four limbs (arms and the legs). The pathophysiology of SCI is highly complex. Currently, more than 250,000 SCI patients cost more than 4 billion dollars annually in the US. At present, methylprednisolone (MP) at high-dose (30 mg/kg) is the only FDA recommended treatment for acute SCI in humans. High-dose MP may also cause muscle damage or myopathy in acute SCI patients. There are no suitable therapeutic strategies yet for treatment of chronic SCI patients. New therapeutic strategies must be developed for treatment of both acute and SCI patients. Nuclear receptors are ligand-inducible transcription factors that control expression of their target genes. We think that nuclear receptors are significant molecular targets for neuroprotection in acute and chronic SCI in rats. Estrogen receptor agonists target estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) or/and ER beta (ERβ), which are nuclear receptors, to provide neuroprotection and improve motor function in SCI in rats. Ray et al. Brain Res Rev 42: , 2003; Ray et al. Neurotherapeutics 8: , 2011.

3 Estrogen receptor (ER) agonists and antagonist Compound 1,3,5-Tris (4- hydroxyphenyl)-4- propyl-1h-pyrazole (PPT) ER selectivity PPT is a selective ERα agonist that displays 400-fold selectivity for ERα over ERβ. 7-Bromo-2-(4- hydroxyphenyl)-1,3- benzoxazol-5-ol (WAY ) 17-β-Estradiol or estrogen (EST) ICI 182,780 WAY is a selective ERβ agonist with 68 folds more affinity over ERα. EST is a naturally occurring hormone that binds to both ERα and ERβ. ICI 182,780 is an ER antagonist. It is known to down regulate both estrogen receptors in vitro and in vivo. Functions of ER agonists and antagonist An ER agonist provides neuroprotection by modulating angiogenesis, inflammatory responses, and oxidative stress. An ER antagonist inhibits the neuroprotective functions of an ER agonist.

4 Involvement of ERα and ERβ in neuroprotection Figure 2. RT-PCR and Western blotting for levels of ERα and ERβ in VSC4.1 motoneunons. (A) RT-PCR for alterations in mrna expression of ERα and ERβ. (B) Determination of percent changes in mrna expression of ERα and ERβ. (C) Western blotting for alterations in protein expression of ERα and ERβ. (D) Determination of percent changes in protein expression of ERα and ERβ. Chakrabarti et al. Neuroscience 256: , 2014.

5 Alterations in expression of specific micrornas (mirs) in VSC4.1 cells following treatment with CI and ER agonist Figure 3. Qualitative RT-PCR and real-time qrt-pcr to determine levels of specific mirs in VSC4.1 motoneurons. (A) Qualitative RT-PCR products of mirs were resolved by 2.2% agarose gel electrophoresis. (B) Real-time qrt-pcr products were analyzed for levels of expression of mirs after normalizing with U6 RNA. Chakrabarti et al. Neuroscience 256: , 2014.

6 Overexpression of mir-7-1 enhanced efficacy of ER agonists in preventing apoptosis in motoneurons Figure 4. Overexpression of mir-7-1 enhanced the efficacy of WAY or EST for prevention of apoptosis in the CI insulted VSC4.1 motoneurons. Cells were then subjected to Annexin V-FITC/PI staining and flow cytometry for percentages of apoptotic cells. Chakrabarti et al. Neuroscience 256: , 2014.

7 Combination of mir-7-1 and ER agonist provided functional neuroprotection to motoneurons Figure 7.

(D) Percent changes in the mitochondrial and cytosolic cytochrome c (Cyt c) and cytosolic Smac/Diablo. Chakrabarti et al. Neuroscience 256: , 2014.

8 Induction and treatment of subacute SCI in rats Pathological and experimental therapeutic studies can be designed for acute (0-1 week), subacute (1-4 weeks), and chronic (1-6 months) phases following SCI in adult Sprague-Dawley rats. Figure 1. Schematic presentation of induction of subacute SCI (40 g.cm force) at T10 in rats. The putative SCI penumbra is shown at 1 day and 14 days after induction of injury.

9 Figure 2. Use of the Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan (BBB) rating scale to assess locomomor function in subacute SCI in Sprague-Dawley rats. The BBB scores were recorded every day for 14 days. Significant early stage (scale of 0-7) improvements in locomotor function were noted in the treated SCI animals when compared with the vehicle treated SCI animals on day 14. Figure 3. Determination of expression of ERα and ERβ in subacute SCI rats following treatments for 14 days. (A) RT-PCR for assessing mrna expression of ERα and ERβ in SCI lesion segment. (B) Western blotting for assessing protein expression of ERα and ERβ in SCI lesion segment.

Extraction of protein sample to perform Western blotting for assessing protein expression of Bax, Bcl-2, Cytochrome c (Cyto c), Caspase-9, Caspase-3, sprectrin break down product (SBDP), and β- Actin in SCI lesion segment. β-actin expression was used as a loading control.
