Targets of vascular protection in acute ischemic stroke differ in type 2 diabetes.
Hemorrhagic transformation is an important complication of acute ischemic stroke, particularly in diabetic patients receiving thrombolytic treatment with tissue plasminogen activator, the only approved drug for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. The objective of the present study was to determine the effects of acute manipulation of potential targets for vascular protection [i.e., NF-κB, peroxynitrite, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)] on vascular injury and functional outcome in a diabetic model of cerebral ischemia. Ischemia was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion in control and type 2 diabetic Goto-Kakizaki rats. Treatment groups received a single dose of the peroxynitrite decomposition catalyst 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)prophyrinato iron (III), the nonspecific NF-κB inhibitor curcumin, or the broad-spectrum MMP inhibitor minocycline at reperfusion. Poststroke infarct volume, edema, hemorrhage, neurological deficits, and MMP-9 activity were evaluated. All acute treatments reduced MMP-9 and hemorrhagic transformation in diabetic groups. In addition, acute curcumin and minocycline therapy reduced edema in these animals. Improved neurological function was observed in varying degrees with treatment, as indicated by beam-walk performance, modified Bederson scores, and grip strength; however, infarct size was similar to untreated diabetic animals. In control animals, all treatments reduced MMP-9 activity, yet bleeding was not improved. Neuroprotection was only conferred by curcumin and minocycline. Uncovering the underlying mechanisms contributing to the success of acute therapy in diabetes will advance tailored stroke therapies.

Treatment of recurrent thyroid cysts by injection of tetracycline or minocycline.
We analyzed the effects of tetracycline hydrochloride or minocycline hydrochloride sclerotherapy on 66 recurrent thyroid cysts. All were hemorrhagic lesions except one serous cyst; cytologic study showed all were benign. On average, three treatments were given until resolution or the patient became unavailable for follow-up. The cumulative frequency of cyst disappearance was 33%, 45%, 52%, and 59% after 1, 2, 3, and 4 treatments. Five additional patients had cyst resolution after six to 19 treatments, and the serous lesion did not resolve. Cysts requiring more than two treatments were larger at presentation than those resolving after one or two treatments. Side effects in 179 treatments were local pain lasting ten to 20 minutes in 4.5%, radiated pain lasting one to two hours in 4.5%, fatigue lasting one to two days in 3.9%, and a febrile sensation lasting one to two days in 2.8%. Hemorrhagic thyroid cysts can usually be cured by repeated tetracycline or minocycline sclerotherapy with tolerable side effects.
