Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), one pattern recognition receptor activated by viral and endogenous RNA, has been recently reported to regulate ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in various organs. However, the role of TLR3 in the development of intestinal I/R injury remains unclear. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of extracellular RNAs/TLR3 signaling in intestinal I/R injury. An intestinal I/R injury model was established with superior mesenteric artery occlusion both in wild-type and TLR3 knockout (KO, ) mice, and MODE-K cells were subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) to mimic the I/R model in vivo. Extracellular RNAs (exRNAs), especially double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) co-localized with TLR3, were significantly increased both in vitro and in vivo. Compared with wild-type mice, TLR3 knockout obviously attenuated intestinal I/R injury. Both TLR3/dsRNA complex inhibitor and TLR3 siRNA administration reduced TLR3 expressions and subsequently inhibited intestinal inflammatory cytokine production and apoptosis. In conclusion, exRNAs/TLR3 signaling is a key mechanism that regulates intestinal I/R injury in adult mice, and the TLR3/dsRNA complex inhibitor can be an effective approach for attenuating intestinal I/R-induced inflammatory response and apoptosis.

Introduction: The incidence of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R) is complex which seriously threatens the life safety of patients. Neither its prevention nor its treatment has been successful so far. Proteins that bind to DNA and belong to the C2/H2 zinc finger family are known as Krüppel-like factors (KLFs).

Objectives: The Shh pathway may shed new light on developing new cell death inhibitors for the therapy of ischemic stroke. We aimed to examine whether the Shh co-reporter SMO or its agonist halcinonide can upregulate Bcl-2 to suppress neuronal cell death, ultimately improving behavioral deficits and reducing cerebral infarction in an ischemic stroke model.
Methods: Halcinonide or genetic manipulation of SMO was conducted in PC12 cells to examine their impacts on oxidative or OGD/R stress, and the chemical, along with AAV-SMO or AAV-EGFP were tested in MCAO rats to investigate their potential protective effects against neuronal damages due to cerebral I/R injury.

Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury represents a significant clinical challenge with limited therapeutic options. Single-cell RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analyses have revealed complex cellular interactions within cardiac tissue, highlighting the crucial role of cardiomyocytes in intercellular communication. During I/R injury, cardiomyocytes experience severe endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to detrimental intercellular communication that affects surrounding cells, particularly promoting the transformation of macrophages toward a pro-inflammatory phenotype.
