Post-stroke early activation of neutrophils contributes to intensive neuroinflammation and worsens disease outcomes. Other pre-existing patient conditions can modify the extent their during disease, especially hypercholesterolemia. However, whether how increased circulating cholesterol amounts change neutrophil responses very after stroke has not been studied. In this study, we investigated effect high-fat diet (HFD) induced hypercholesterolemia on outcome. Mice were fed with HFD or normal (ND) for six weeks then by transient occlusion middle cerebral artery.

Neutrophils are the first cells to be recruited sites of acute inflammation and contribute host defense through phagocytosis, degranulation neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). rarely found in brain because highly selective blood-brain barrier (BBB). However, several diseases disrupt BBB cause neuroinflammation. In this regard, neutrophils NETs have been visualized after various insults, including traumatic (traumatic injury spinal cord injury), infectious (bacterial meningitis), vascular (ischemic stroke), autoimmune (systemic lupus erythematosus), neurodegenerative (multiple sclerosis Alzheimer’s disease), neoplastic (glioma) causes. Significantly, preventing trafficking into central nervous system or NET production these alleviates pathology improves neurocognitive outcomes.

Neutrophil aggregation and clearance are important factors affecting neuroinflammatory injury during acute ischemic stroke. Emerging evidence suggests that energy metabolism is essential for microglial functions, especially phagocytosis, which determines the degree of brain injury. Here, we demonstrate Resolvin D1 (RvD1), a lipid mediator derived from docosahexaenic acid (DHA), promotes phagocytosis neutrophils by microglia, thereby reducing neutrophil accumulation in alleviating neuroinflammation brain. Further studies reveal RvD1 reprograms glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), providing sufficient phagocytosis. Moreover, enhances glutamine uptake stimulates glutaminolysis support OXPHOS boost ATP production depending on adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation. Overall, our results promote after These findings may guide perspectives stroke therapy modulating immunometabolism.
