Profile of intravenous glyburide for the prevention of cerebral edema following large hemispheric infarction: evidence to date

Drug Design, Development and Therapy
Zachary A KingJ Marc Simard

Abstract

Glyburide (also known as glibenclamide) is a second-generation sulfonylurea drug that inhibits sulfonylurea receptor 1 (Sur1) at nanomolar concentrations. Long used to target KATP (Sur1-Kir6.2) channels for the treatment of diabetes mellitus type 2, glyburide was recently repurposed to target Sur1-transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (Trpm4) channels in acute central nervous system injury. Discovered nearly two decades ago, SUR1-TRPM4 has emerged as a critical target in stroke, specifically in large hemispheric infarction, which is characterized by edema formation and life-threatening brain swelling. Following ischemia, SUR1-TRPM4 channels are transcriptionally upregulated in all cells of the neurovascular unit, including neurons, astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes and microvascular endothelial cells. Work by several independent laboratories has linked SUR1-TRPM4 to edema formation, with blockade by glyburide reducing brain swelling and death in preclinical models. Recent work showed that, following ischemia, SUR1-TRPM4 co-assembles with aquaporin-4 to mediate cellular swelling of astrocytes, which contributes to brain swelling. Additionally, recent work linked SUR1-TRPM4 to secretion of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MM...Continue Reading

Brain Ischemia

Brain ischemia is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. Discover the latest research on brain ischemia here.

Astrocytes & Neurodegeneration

Astrocytes are important for the health and function of the central nervous system. When these cells stop functioning properly, either through gain of function or loss of homeostatic controls, neurodegenerative diseases can occur. Here is the latest research on astrocytes and neurodegeneration.

CV Disorders & Type 2 Diabetes

This feed focuses on the association of cardiovascular diseases in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Astrocytes in Repair & Regeneration

Astrocytes are glial cells found within the CNS and are able to regenerate new neurons. They become activated during CNS injury and disease. The activation leads to the transcription of new genes and the repair and regeneration of neurons. Discover the latest research on astrocytes in repair and regeneration here.

Astrocytes

Astrocytes are glial cells that support the blood-brain barrier, facilitate neurotransmission, provide nutrients to neurons, and help repair damaged nervous tissues. Here is the latest research.
