Beta blockade in TBI: Dose-dependent reductions in BBB leukocyte mobilization and permeability in vivo

imageBACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is accompanied by a hyperadrenergic catecholamine state that can cause penumbral neuroinflammation. Prospective human studies demonstrate improved TBI survival with beta blockade (bb), although mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesized that deranged post-TBI penumbral blood brain barrier (BBB) leukocyte mobilization and permeability are improved by bb. METHODS CD1 male mice (n = 64) were randomly assigned to severe TBI—controlled cortical impact: 6 m/s velocity, 1 mm depth, 3 mm diameter—or sham craniotomy, and IP injection of either saline or propranolol (1, 2, or 4 mg/kg) every 12 hours for 2 days. At 48 hours, in vivo pial intravital microscopy visualized live endothelial-leukocyte (LEU) interactions and BBB microvascular leakage. Twice daily clinical recovery was assessed by regaining of lost body weight and the Garcia Neurological Test (motor, sensory, reflex, balance assessments). Brain edema was determined by hemispheric wet-to-dry ratios. RESULTS Propranolol after TBI reduced both in vivo LEU rolling and BBB permeability in a dose-dependent fashion compared with no treatment (p
