The clinical application of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is significantly constrained by hemorrhagic transformation (HT), a common and severe complication following thrombolysis for ischemic stroke. Notably, the mitochondrial injury-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome plays crucial role in HT after delayed rt-PA acute Although acupuncture has demonstrated antioxidant anti-inflammatory effects cerebral infarction, its impact on thrombolysis, especially concerning mitophagy inflammasome, remains unclear. This study investigates how protects against resulting from damage activation We selected an embolic stroke model rats assessed brain injury using neurological deficit score, volume infarct, permeability assay blood-brain barrier (BBB), HT. Then, levels proteins mRNA involved pathway were measured western blot real-time PCR. interleukin-18 (IL-18) interleukin-1β (IL-1β) enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA). Morphological changes BBB mitochondria neurons observed via transmission electron microscopy. Acupuncture improved scores, destruction, rat. Furthermore, induced substantially downregulated activity inflammasome. Additionally, use inhibitors reversed suppressive can promote suppress to decrease therapy
