Figure Lengend Snippet: Platelet-derived IL-1 β contributes to liver injury in the HS murine model. (A) GO (BP) analysis of the physiological and pathological states of platelets in SHR mice and mice at 0 h post-HS (HS0). (B) Representative images of immunofluorescence in liver tissue from SHR and HS mice ( n = 3 independent experiments, scale bars, 50 μm). DAPI (blue), CD42b for platelets (green), Clec4f for Kupffer cells (red), Glutamine Synthetase (GS) for central vein zone (purple). (C) Flow cytometric analysis of the percentage of P-selectin expression on platelets in SHR mice and mice at 0, 6, 24 h post-HS ( n = 6 mice per group). (D) GO (BP) analysis of cytokine-related pathways in platelets from SHR mice and at HS onset (HS0). (E, F) qPCR analysis of Il1b (E) and Casp1 (F) mRNA expression of platelets under heat stress in vitro ( n = 6 mice per group). (G) Flow cytometry analysis of caspase-1 levels in platelets from Tfr1 flox/flox mice, CKO- Tfr1 mice and CKO- Tfr1 mice infected with AAV9-DIO- Tfr1 , with or without ferroptosis inhibitor fer1 and DFO ( n = 6 mice per group). (H) ELISA analysis of IL-1 β levels in the supernatant of platelets under heat stress in vitro ( n = 6 mice per group). (I) ELISA analysis of IL-1 β levels in plasma from Tfr1 flox/flox mice, CKO- Tfr1 mice, and CKO- Tfr1 mice infected with AAV9-DIO- Tfr1 , with or without ferroptosis inhibitor fer1 and DFO ( n = 6 mice per group). (J) ELISA analysis of IL-1 β levels in PLP supernatant from sh- Zdhhc2, oe- Zdhhc2 , oe- Tfr1 , oe- Tfr1 -sh- Zdhhc2 MEG-01 cells under heat stress in vitro , with or without ferroptosis inhibitor fer1 ( n = 6 independent experiments). Mean ± SEM are shown, ∗∗ P < 0.01, ∗∗∗ P < 0.001, ∗∗∗∗ P < 0.0001.
