摘要

Controlled cortical impact (CCI), one of the most common models of traumatic brain injury, is being increasingly used with mice for exploration of cell injury mechanisms and pre-clinical evaluation of therapeutic strategies. Although CCI brain injury was originally effected using an impactor with a rounded tip, the majority of studies with mouse CCI use a flat or beveled tip. Recent finite element modeling analyses demonstrate that tip geometry is a significant determinant of predicted cortical tissue strains in rat CCI, and that cell death is proportional to predicted tissue strains. In the current study, a three-dimensional finite element model of a C57BL/6J mouse brain predicted higher maximum principal strains during a simulated 1.0-mm, 3.5-m/s CCI injury with a flat tip when compared to a rounded tip. Consistent with this prediction, experimental CCI with a flat-tip impactor resulted in greater acute cortical hemorrhage and neuron loss in adult male C57BL/6J mice. The amount of neocortical tissue damage was equivalent for the two tip geometries at 9 days following injury, but the rate of neocortical neurodegeneration was markedly slower following CCI with a rounded-tip impactor, with damage reaching a plateau after 24?h as opposed to after 4?h for the flat tip. The flat-tip impactor was associated in general with more regional hippocampal neurodegeneration, especially at early time points such as 4?h. Impactor tip geometry did not have a notable effect on blood?brain barrier breakdown, traumatic axonal injury, or motor and cognitive dysfunction. Execution of CCI injury with a rounded-tip impactor is posited to provide a substantially enhanced temporal window for the study of cellular injury mechanisms and therapeutic intervention while maintaining critical aspects of the pathophysiological response to contusion brain injury.
