The A20 protein is considered to have a potent anti-inflammatory effect, but its mechanism of action in the regulation of ferroptosis and inflammation after stroke is still unknown. In this study, the A20-knockdown BV2 cell line (sh-A20 BV2) was constructed at first, and the oxygen-glucose deprivation/re-oxygenation (OGD/R) cell model was constructed. Both the BV2 and sh-A20 BV2 cells were treated with the ferroptosis inducer erastin for 48 h, the ferroptosis-related indicators were detected by western blot. The mechanism of ferroptosis was explored by western blot and immunofluorescence. Under OGD/R pressure, the oxidative stress level of sh-A20 BV2 cells was inhibited, but the secretion of the inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 was significantly upregulated. And sh-A20 BV2 cells had higher expression levels of GPX4 and NLRP3 proteins under OGD/R induction. Western blot further confirmed that sh-A20 BV2 cells inhibited OGD/R-induced ferroptosis. Under the effect of erastin of the ferroptosis inducer (0–1000 nM), sh-A20 BV2 cells had higher cell viability than wild-type BV2 cells and significantly inhibited the accumulation of ROS and the level of oxidative stress damage. It was confirmed that A20 could promote the activation of the IκBα/NFκB/iNOS pathway. It was confirmed by an iNOS inhibitor that iNOS inhibition could reverse the resistance effect of BV2 cells to OGD/R-induced ferroptosis after A20 knockdown. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that inhibition of A20 mediates a stronger inflammatory response while enhancing microglial resistance by knocking down A20 in BV2 cells.

Knockdown of A20 attenuates microglial susceptibility to OGD/R-induced ferroptosis and upregulates inflammatory responses
