Abstract:
:Visual dysfunction is a common occurrence after traumatic brain injury (TBI). We investigated in this study effects of single or multiple mild TBI on visual function in mice using a closed head injury model that permits unconstrained head movement after impact. Adult mice were briefly anesthetized with isoflurane and given one or three mild TBI with the closed head injury by mechanically engineered rotational acceleration (CHIMERA) device with an interinjury interval of 24 h. Mice were then tested in the Morris water maze, visual cliff, and open field tests from day 19 to day 32 and for visual evoked potential at 5 weeks after the last injury and euthanized. Mice with multiple TBI showed impaired performance in the visible platform water maze test and had increased errors in the visual cliff test. Further, there was a graded difference in visual evoked potential, with the single injury mice showing modest reduction in N1 amplitude whereas the multiple injuries produced significant reduction compared to sham and single injury groups. The optic tract of the injured mice showed increases in glial cell immunostaining. The increase in glial fibrillary acid protein immunostaining reached statistical significance for both injured groups whereas the ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 immunostaining was only significantly increased in the optic tract of repeatedly injured mice. These results indicate that multiple injuries using CHIMERA may result in visual deficits, which can affect certain behavioral performances. The change in vision may be a useful marker when monitoring repeated TBI outcome and screening for protective agents from TBI.
