AIM: Given that electroacupuncture (EA) pretreatment inhibits lactate production and lactate-derived lysine lactation (Kla) aggravates ischemic brain injury, we aimed to investigate whether the formation of Kla protein is involved in EA pretreatment to alleviate ischemic brain injury.
METHODS: EA was performed on the Baihui acupoint (GV20) of male C57BL/6J mice before receiving the permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) surgery. Western blot and immunofluorescent staining were used to observe neuronal survival, astrocyte activation, and protein Kla levels, and the lactate levels in ischemic brains were assayed with a commercial kit. TTC staining and neurological function scores are performed to evaluate the brain damage in mice.
RESULTS: We found that the increased lactate content and protein Kla levels were significantly decreased in ischemic brain tissue of mice after receiving EA pretreatment, and accompanied by the reduction of astrocyte activation and neuronal injury and death. Meantime, we found that EA pretreatment was effective in reversing the worsening of ischemic brain injury caused by lactate supplementation. However, EA pretreatment did not further reduce the lactate content and protein Kla levels and ameliorate brain injury in ischemic stroke mice after inhibition of glycolysis.
CONCLUSION: Our study reveals that EA pretreatment reduced ischemic brain damage by inhibiting lactate production and its derived protein Kla formation in mice with ischemic stroke.
