## TL;DR

This paper shows that electroacupuncture can reduce brain inflammation after a stroke by targeting a specific channel called TRPV4.

## Contribution

The study reveals a novel mechanism by which electroacupuncture inhibits TRPV4 to ameliorate neuroinflammation in ischemic stroke.

## Key findings

- Electroacupuncture significantly reduced neuroinflammation in ischemic stroke models.
- TRPV4 channel inhibition was identified as a key mechanism behind the therapeutic effects of electroacupuncture.
