Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has poor outcomes due to high mortality and morbidity, but until now, the effective treatments remain limited. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are vital regulators of gene expression and demonstrated to be linked to the pathogenesis of various central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Exosomes are considered as cell-to-cell communication vectors and secreted largely by mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). The present study investigated the role of miR-133b delivered by exosomes secreted from MSCs to brain tissues in rats after ICH. An autologous arterial blood ICH model in adult male Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats was used in this study. At 72 h after transfection with miR-133b mimics in MSCs, miR-133b-modified MSC-derived exosomes were collected from medium of MSCs and then injected to rats via tail vein. The levels of miR-133b in secreted exosomes and brain tissues of rats in various groups and the levels of RhoA, phosphorylations of extracellular signal regulating kinase (ERK1/2), and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) were detected by real-time PCR and western blot analysis, respectively. The effects of miR-133b on neuronal apoptosis and degeneration were respectively evaluated by TUNEL and fluoro-jade B staining. The miR-133b levels were reduced in brain tissues of rats at 24 h and peaked at 72 h after ICH. At 24 h after miR-133b-modified exosome administration, the level of miR-133b was significantly increased, while the apoptotic and neurodegenerative neurons were obviously reduced in brain tissues after ICH. The results of western blot analysis showed that miR-133b modified exosomes treatment remarkably suppressed RhoA expression and activated ERK1/2/CREB in brain tissues after ICH. Collectively, our investigation suggested that exosomes derived from miR-133b modified MSCs exhibited neuroprotective role for anti-apoptotic effect of miR-133b mediating RhoA and ERK1/2/CREB in rats after ICH.
