IL17A and Cerebral ischemia: confirmed that electroacupuncture (2Hz frequency with continuous waves) regulates IL-17 and IL-10 levels in the brain and colon tissues through the brain-gut axis, significantly improves neurological function, neuronal and intestinal damage, and modulates the differential distribution of microbial communities in the mouse intestine after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (Zhang et al., 2023).
