Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 11. NTF alleviated ferroptosis and inflammation after OGD/R in microglia thought BMP6/SMADs pathway. OGD/R resulted in the imbalance of the pro portion of M1 and M2 microglia, activation of IL-6/STAT3 inflammatory pathway, and production of inflammatory factors to worsen the inflammatory response. BMP6 can stimulate p-SMADs in cytoplasm to enter the nucleus after OGD/R, which can promote transcription of hepcidin and inhibit FPN to efflux of Fe2+, thus initiating the Fenton reaction, and promoting iron death. NTF can balance M1 and M2 type microglia and reduce the release of inflammatory factors. NTF simultaneously regulated hepcidin, reduced Fe2+ deposition, and reduced iron death.
