Description

Ren and co-authors study a mitochondrial protein that may worsen brain bleed harm. Bleeding in the brain triggers swelling and cell death near the clot. Microglia, the brain immune cells, drive much of that harm. The protein ATP5J rose in microglia after a bleed in mice. Raising ATP5J made brain scores, barrier leaks, and water content worse.

Lowering ATP5J had the reverse effect and eased the damage. High ATP5J also fired up microglia and raised cell death nearby. In cell tests, ATP5J pushed microglia toward a harmful state. Blocking ATP5J calmed excess mitochondrial splitting and cut reactive oxygen output. The work names ATP5J as a possible drug target after brain bleeds.
