- W2797519206 abstract "Despite higher rates of hospitalization and mortality following traumatic brain injury (TBI) in patients over 65 years old, older patients remain underrepresented in drug development studies. Worse outcomes in older individuals compared to younger adults could be attributed to exacerbated injury mechanisms including oxidative stress, inflammation, blood-brain barrier disruption, and bioenergetic dysfunction. Accordingly, pleiotropic treatments are attractive candidates for neuroprotection. Taurine, an endogenous amino acid with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, osmolytic, and neuromodulator effects, is neuroprotective in adult rats with TBI. However, its effects in the aged brain have not been evaluated. We subjected aged male rats to a unilateral controlled cortical impact injury to the sensorimotor cortex, and randomized them into four treatment groups: saline or 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, or 200 mg/kg i.p. taurine. Treatments were administered 20 min post-injury and daily for 7 days. We assessed sensorimotor function on post-TBI days 1-14 and tissue loss on day 14 using T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. Experimenters were blinded to the treatment group for the duration of the study. We did not observe neuroprotective effects of taurine on functional impairment or tissue loss in aged rats after TBI. These findings in aged rats are in contrast to previous reports of taurine neuroprotection in younger animals. Advanced age is an important variable for drug development studies in TBI, and further research is required to better understand how aging may influence mechanisms of taurine neuroprotection." @default.
