    Abstract: Previous studies have demonstrated that cardiomyocyte apoptosis, ferroptosis, and inflammation participate in the progress of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC). Although Islet cell autoantigen 69 (ICA69) is an imperative molecule that could regulate inflammation and immune response in numerous illnesses, its function in cardiovascular disease, particularly in SIC, is still elusive. We confirmed that LPS significantly enhanced the expression of ICA69 in wild-type (WT) mice, macrophages, and cardiomyocytes. The knockout of ICA69 in lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced mice markedly elevated survival ratio and heart function, while inhibiting cardiac muscle and serum inflammatory cytokines, reactive oxygen (ROS), and ferroptosis biomarkers. Mechanistically, increased expression of ICA69 triggered the production of STING, which further resulted in the production of intracellular lipid peroxidation, eventually triggering ferroptosis and heart injury. Intriguingly, ICA69 deficiency only reversed the ferroptotic marker levels, such as prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2), malonaldehyde (MDA), 4-hydroxynonenal (4HNE), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), superoxide dismutase (SOD), iron and lipid ROS, but had no effects on the xCT-dependent manner. Additionally, greater ICA69 level was identified in septic patients peripheralblood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) than in normal control groups. Generally, we unveil that ICA69 deficiency can relieve inflammation and ferroptosis in LPS-induced murine hearts and macrophages, making targeting ICA69 in heart a potentially promising treatment method for SIC.

    Abstract: Electroacupuncture (EA) is commonly used to treat cerebrovascular diseases. This study aimed to clarify the mechanisms of action of treatments of cerebral ischemic stroke from the perspective of gut microecology. We used a mouse model and cell cultures to investigate the effects of EA on the intestinal microflora in mice models of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and the mechanisms underlying the antioxidant activities of metabolites. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) was used to validate the roles of gut microbiota. Metabolomic analysis was performed to characterize the metabolic profile differences between the mice in the EA + MCAO and MCAO groups. Gavaging with feces relieved brain damage in mice that received EA (EA mice) more than in mice that did not (non-EA [NEA] mice). The gut microbial composition and metabolic profiles of the EA and NEA mice were different. In particular, the microbiota from the mice in the EA or EA-FMT groups generated more indole-3-propionic acid (IPA) than the microbiota from the mice in the MCAO or NEA-FMT groups. We confirmed that IPA binds to specific melatonin receptors (MTRs) in target cells and exerts antioxidant effects by adding MTR inhibitors or knocking out the MTR1 gene in vivo and in the oxygen and glucose deprivation/reperfusion models of N2a cell experiments. EA can prevent ischemic stroke by improving the composition of intestinal microbiota in MCAO mice. Moreover, this study reveals a new mechanism of intestinal flora regulation of stroke that differs from inflammation/immunity, namely gut microbiota regulates stroke by affecting IPA levels.
