Ectopic expression of the cation-chloride cotransporter KCC2 in blood exosomes as a biomarker for functional rehabilitation by L. Caccialupi Da Prato, A. Rezzag Lebza, A. Consumi, M. Tessier, A. Srinivasan, C. Rivera, C. Rivera, J. Laurin, C. Pellegrino

“…In this study, we described the use of KCC2, a neuronal-specific potassium–chloride cotransporter, as a potent biomarker to predict cognitive dysfunction after TBI.MethodsUsing neuronal and total exosome collections from the blood serum of the controls and patients with TBI, we were able to anticipate the decline in cognitive performance.ResultsAfter TBI, we observed a significant and persistent loss of KCC2 expression in the blood exosomes, which was correlated with the changes in the network activity and cellular processes such as secondary neurogenesis. …”
