摘要

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is more common than ever and is becoming a global public health issue. A variety of secondary brain injuries occur after TBI, including ferroptosis characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Gallic acid is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine, which has many biological effects such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. We further investigated whether Gallic acid can improve the neurological impairment caused by ferroptosis after TBI by targeting APOC3. Weighted gene coexpression network analyses (WGCNA) and 3 kinds of machine-learning algorithms were used to find the potential biomarkers. Then the HERB database was used to select the Chinese herb that acted on the target gene APOC3. Finally, we selected Gallic acid as a drug targeting APOC3 and verified by Western blotting. The effect of Gallic acid on the improvement of neurological function was studied by Nissl staining and FJB staining. Finally, the effect of Gallic acid on the cognitive ability of TBI mice was explored through behavioral experiments. Gallic acid can inhibit the expression level of APOC3 and thus inhibit the level of ferroptosis after TBI. It can also reduce the degeneration of nerve tissue by inhibiting ferroptosis and improve the neurological function deficit. The behavioral experiment proved that Gallic acid can alleviate the behavioral cognitive impairment caused by TBI. Gallic acid can reduce ferroptosis by inhibiting APOC3, and then alleviate neurological impairment after TBI.
