Regardless of the severity of TBI\, pediatric patients suffer long-term cognitive and emotional impairments but the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms are still poorly understood and there are no effective treatments available. The neurovascular unit is composed by blood vessels\, neurons and astrocytes. Astrocytes are crucial for various physiological functions of this unit such as brain homeostasis and neurovascular coupling. In injuries astrocytes become “reactive”\, and this “astrocytopathy” can impact their physiological roles and worsen the outcome after injury. \nWe investigated the astrocytopathy in juvenile TBI and hypothesized that: (1) reactive astrocytes contribute to spread of edema through connexin gap junctions after juvenile moderate TBI; (2) astrocytopathy also develops after juvenile mild TBI with calcium changes that could contribute to (3) impaired vascular reactivity\, all of which impacts the behavioral outcome after injury. \nWe showed that: \n\nReducing astrocytopathy by downregulating connexin 43 improved behavioral outcome after juvenile moderate TBI\, but did not impact the spread of edema.\nAstrocytes became reactive and underwent morphological changes after juvenile mild TBI with disturbances in purinergic-calcium signaling related to expression changes of the water channel aquaporin 4 (AQP4).\nMajor vascular dysfunction developed after juvenile mild TBI with functional and morphological changes of the intraparenchymal vessels that paralleled behavioral impairments and preceded axonal damage after injury.\n\nThis work brings new insights in the pathophysiology of juvenile TBI and opens prospects for developing therapeutics targeting astrocytopathy after injury. \nKey words: traumatic brain injury\, astrocytes\, calcium\, aquaporin 4\, connexin 43\, blood vessels \n\n		\n	\n”List\n\n	\n		\n			\nIchkova A.\, Rodriguez-Grande B.\, Aussudre J.\, Fournier\, ML.\, Obenaus A.\, Badaut J.\, Juvenile mild traumatic injury impacts “invisible” intracortical blood vessels properties beyond blood-brain barrier dysfunction (in preparation)\nIchkova A.\, Fukuda\, A.
