Hence, paracrine Il6 response modulation within the neurovascular unit has emerged as an attractive therapeutic approach. Lithium modulates Il6 responses and improves stroke outcome. However, lithium may cause serious adverse effects. Here, we report that Zincfinger protein 580 (Zfp580) mediates the effects of lithium on Il6 signaling. In contrast to lithium, Zfp580 inactivation had no neurotoxic effects, and Zfp580 knock out mice showed no phenotypic changes in cognitive and motor function behavioral tests. We discovered that lithium and hypoxia disinhibited Il6 via Zfp580 suppression and post-translational modification by small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO). After transient middle cerebral artery occlusion, loss of Zfp580 reduced paracrine Il6 and increased Il6 trans-signaling. Aside from modulating Il6 signaling, Zfp580 loss improved endothelial resilience to ischemia, was highly neuroprotective resulting in smaller infarcts and enhanced use-dependent neuroplasticity, all of which led to improved functional outcome. In conclusion, inactivation of Zfp580 exerts positive effects on multiple key mechanisms without exhibiting relevant adverse side effects, making it potentially a more specific and effective treatment target for stroke recovery than lithium. To fully assess its potential, Zfp580 inhibitors must be developed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0271678x231168499","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,6]],"date-time":"2023-04-06T05:40:15Z","timestamp":1680759615000},"page":"1400-1418","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Zfp580
