Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has a high mortality and disability rate. Numerous basic studies on pathogenesis and therapeutics have been performed in mice. However, the consistency of the experimental mouse model and the human ICH patient remains unclear. This has slowed progress in translational medicine. Furthermore, effective therapeutic targets and reliable regulatory networks for ICH are needed. Therefore, we determined the differentially expressed (DE) messenger RNAs (mRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs) before and after murine ICH and analyzed their regulatory relationships. Subsequently, data on mRNAs from human peripheral blood after ICH were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The DE mRNAs after human ICH were compared with those of the mouse. Finally, we obtained seven genes with translational medicine research value and verified them in mice. Then the regulatory network of these genes was analyzed in humans. Similarly, species homologies of these regulatory pathways were identified. In conclusion, we found that the mouse ICH model mimics the human disease mainly in terms of chemokines and inflammatory factors. This has important implications for future research into the mechanisms of ICH injury and repair.
