Electroacupuncture Pretreatment Alleviates Myocardial Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury by Inhibiting Engulfment by Microglia in the Lateral Hypothalamus

The occurrence of myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury (MIRI) is accompanied by neuroinflammatory reactions and is closely related to the overactivation of microglia. Currently, effective clinical strategies to prevent MIRI are unclear. This study investigated potential therapeutic targets and the mechanisms of electroacupuncture pretreatment (EA‐pre) for MIRI.
