Repurposing antimycotic ciclopirox olamine as a promising anti-ischemic stroke agent

Ischemic stroke is a severe disorder resulting from acute cerebral thrombosis.Here we demonstrated that post-ischemic treatment with ciclopirox olamine (CPX),a potent antifungal clinical drug,alleviated brain infarction,neurological deficits and brain edema in a classic rat model of ischemic stroke.Single dose post-ischemic administration of CPX provided a long-lasting neuroprotective effect,which can be further enhanced by multiple doses administration of CPX.CPX also effectively reversed ischemia-induced neuronal loss,glial activation as well as blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage.Employing quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis,130 phosphosites in 122 proteins were identified to be significantly regulated by CPX treatment in oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD)-exposed SH-SY5Y cells,which revealed that phosphokinases and cell cycle-related phosphoproteins were largely influenced.Subsequently,we demonstrated that CPX markedly enhanced the AKT (protein kinase B,PKB/AKT) and GSK3β (glycogen synthase kinase 3β) phosphorylation in OGD-exposed SH-SY5Y cells,and regulated the cell cycle progression and nitric oxide (NO) release in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced BV-2 cells,which may contribute to its ameliorative effects against ischemia-associated neuronal death and microglial inflammation.Our study suggests that CPX could be a promising compound to reduce multiple ischemic injuries;however,further studies will be needed to clarify the molecular mechanisms involved.
