This study aims to unravel the role of the RPS27A-mediated PSMD12/NF-κB axis in controlling immune cell infiltration in the context of cerebral I/R injury. To identify genes associated with cerebral I/R injury, high-throughput sequencing was employed. The potential downstream genes were further analyzed using Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) analyses. For experimental models, primary microglia and neurons were extracted from the cortical tissues of mouse brains. An in vitro cerebral I/R injury model was established in microglia using the oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) technique. In vivo models involved inducing cerebral I/R injury in mice through the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) method. These models were used to assess neurological function, immune cell infiltration, and inflammatory factor release. The study identified RPS27A as a key player in cerebral I/R injury, with PSMD12 likely acting as its downstream regulator. Silencing RPS27A in OGD/R-induced microglia decreased the release of inflammatory factors and reduced neuron apoptosis. Additionally, RPS27A silencing in cerebral cortex tissues mediated the PSMD12/NF-κB axis, resulting in decreased inflammatory factor release, reduced neutrophil infiltration, and improved cerebral injury outcomes in I/R-injured mice. RPS27A regulates the expression of the PSMD12/NF-κB signaling axis, leading to the induction of inflammatory factors in microglial cells, promoting immune cell infiltration in brain tissue, and exacerbating brain damage in I/R mice. This study introduces novel insights and theoretical foundations for the treatment of nerve damage caused by I/R, suggesting that targeting the RPS27A and downstream PSMD12/NF-κB signaling axis for drug development could represent a new direction in I/R therapy.","PeriodicalId":18813,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141742422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While radiation can be beneficial, it can also harm the healthy tissues surrounding the tumor. Recent research indicates that the microbiota, the collection of microorganisms in our body, may play a role in influencing the effectiveness and side effects of radiation therapy. Studies have shown that specific species of bacteria living in the stomach can influence the immune system's response to radiation, potentially increasing the effectiveness of treatment. Additionally, the microbiota may contribute to adverse effects like radiation-induced diarrhea. A potential strategy to enhance radiotherapy outcomes and capitalize on the microbiome involves using probiotics. Probiotics are living microorganisms that offer health benefits when consumed in sufficient quantities. Several studies have indicated that probiotics have the potential to alter the composition of the gut microbiota, resulting in an enhanced immune response to radiation therapy and consequently improving the efficacy of the treatment. It is important to note that radiation can disrupt the natural balance of gut bacteria, resulting in increased intestinal permeability and inflammatory conditions. These disruptions can lead to adverse effects such as diarrhea and damage to the intestinal lining. The emerging field of radiotherapy microbiome research offers a promising avenue for optimizing cancer treatment outcomes.
