In the tumor microenvironment, IL-15 has been shown to induce NK cells to enhance their resistance to oxidative stress and protect against ROS via the thioredoxin system ( + T cells and promoting tumor progression ( Figure 3 ROS plays an important regulatory role in T cell activation, promotion of T cell antigen-specific proliferation and apoptosis ( 2 O 2 , enhancing T cell infiltration and reversing immunosuppression ( ROS have long been considered to be harmful metabolites of mitochondria, but recent studies have shown that mtROS have a necessary signaling role in preventing excessive immune responses, and in particular ROS play a key role in regulating macrophage immune responses ( DCs differentiated from monocytes have potent antigen presentation properties, promote T-cell activation, and play an important role in initiating and regulating immune responses ( Mitochondria are the main ROS-producing organelles in cells, producing ROS and OXPHOS through ETC, which have a dual role in tumors: low levels are important cell signaling molecules, high levels cause oxidative damage and promote tumor development, and ROS balance is key to cell homeostasis

The use of electro-acupuncture to stimulate the Zusanli (ST36) acupoint can activate the 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the lung tissue through the cervical vagus nerve and sciatic nerve to protect the ferroptosis in the lung tissue, which also verifies the importance of the vagus nerve in protecting the oxidative damage of cells (104) ( Figure 2 )
