Introduction
• Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-
CSF) is a hematopoietic cytokine initially
used in the treatment of neutropenia for its
effects on proliferation and maturation of
the granulocyte cell line.
• G-CSF displayed a neuroprotective effect
when used during experimental stroke by
both decreasing the infarct size and
improving motor function recovery.3VIT
Introduction
• However, the tPA-therapeutic window is
limited due to induced-hemorrhages.
• The objective of this work was to analyze
the impact of G-CSF on the risk of
hemorrhage when used in combination
with tPA during the acute phase of an
experimental ischemic stroke.
4VIT
Method
• Blood samples were collected before
surgery (MCA occlusion).
• Samples received G-CSF or 0.9% saline
subcutaneously just before tPA.

Method
Neutrophil count on peripheral blood before surgery, 24 h, and 72 h of reperfusion
Evaluation of infarct and hemorrhage (quantifying infarct volume)
Myeloperoxidase immunohistochemistry analysis (assaying MPO which expressed by neutrophil cells)
Vasoreactivity analysis (measuring lumen diameter)
MMP-9 analyzed on gelatin zymography

Discussion
• G-CSF administered in combination with
tPA during the acute phase of cerebral
ischemia worsened the risk of
hemorrhage.
18VIT
Discussion
In Infarct Region
• The neuroprotective effect is probably
independent from G-CSF’s action on
neutrophils; directly related to G-CSF’s
effect on neurons: inducing neurogenesis,
anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic
mechanisms.

Conclusion
The potential hemorrhagic risk in
administering G-CSF in combination with
tPA during the acute phase of cerebral
ischemia, probably though vascular
alterations mediated by the MMP-9 release
from peripheral neutrophils.
