Abstract:
:1. The original concept of the ischemic penumbra surrounding a focus of dense cerebral ischemia is based on electrophysiological observations. In the cortex of baboons following middle cerebral artery occlusion, complete failure of the cortical evoked potential was observed at a cerebral blood flow (CBF) threshold level of approx. 0.15 ml/g/min--a level at which extracellular potassium ion activity was only mildly elevated. With a greater CBF decrement to the range of 0.06-0.10 ml/g/min, massive increases in extracellular potassium occurred and were associated with complete tissue infarction. Thus, the ischemic penumbra has been conceptualized as a region in which CBF reduction has exceeded the threshold for failure of electrical function but not that for membrane failure. 2. Recent studies demonstrate that the penumbra as defined classically by the flow thresholds does not survive prolonged periods of ischemia. The correlation of CBF autoradiograms with diffusion-weighted MR images and the regional distribution of cerebral metabolites reveals that the ischemic core region enlarges when adjacent, formerly penumbral, areas undergo irreversible deterioration during the initial hours of vascular occlusion. At the same time, the residual penumbra becomes restricted to the periphery of the ischemic territory, and its fate may depend critically upon early therapeutic intervention. 3. In the border zone of brain infarcts, marked uncoupling of local CBF and glucose utilization is consistently observed. The correlation with electrophysiological measurements shows that metabolism-flow uncoupling is associated with sustained deflections of the direct current (DC) potential resembling transient depolarizations. Such penumbral cell depolarizations, which are associated with an increased metabolic workload, induce episodes of tissue hypoxia due to the constrained collateral flow, stimulate anaerobic glycolysis leading to lactacidosis, suppress protein synthesis, and, finally, compromise energy metabolism. The frequency of their occurrence correlates with the final volume of ischemic injury. Therefore, penumbral depolarizations are regarded as a key event in the pathogenesis of ischemic brain injury. Periinfarct DC deflections can be suppressed by NMDA and non-NMDA antagonists, resulting in a significant reduction of infarct size. 4. The histopathological sequelae within the penumbra consist of various degrees of scattered neuronal injury, also termed "incomplete infarction." The reduction of neuronal density at the infarct border is a flow- and time-dependent event which is accompanied by an early response of glial cells. As early as 3 hr after vascular occlusion a generalized microglial activation can be detected throughout the ipsilateral cortex. Astrocytic activation is observed in the intact parts of the ischemic hemisphere from 6 hr postocclusion onward. Thus, the penumbra is a spatially dynamic brain region of limited viability which is characterized by complex pathophysiological changes involving neuronal function as well as well as glial activation in response to local ischemic injury.
