Abstract
AbstractDrainage of intraparenchymal hematoma is crucial for the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We investigated here the possible function of the meningeal lymphatic vessels (mLVs) in ICH resolution. Meningeal lymphatics have been reported to be involved in cerebrospinal fluid drainage, but their role in the drainage and clearance of brain parenchyma has not been characterized in details. Using two preclinical models of ICH, mimicking focal cortical ischemic hemorrhage and subcortical extended hemorrhage, we characterized the dynamics of blood drainage through the dorsal mLVs by two-photon real time imaging in awake mice. After ICH induction, we observe the flow of blood-derived components within the mLVs, suggesting that meningeal lymphatics can play a role in facilitating the drainage of the hemorrhage. We also found that local formation of new mLVs is directly correlated with ICH-related neuroinflammation levels. These findings suggest that meningeal lymphatics could provide a valuable therapeutic target for ICH resolution.SummaryIn vivo awake imaging reveals the direct drainage of extravasated blood-solutes from brain parenchyma into dorsal meningeal lymphatic vessels, following focal or diffuse intracranial hemorrhage
