• Acute cerebral infarction (ACI) is the most common type of acute cerebrovascular disease so far, and its incidence rate has been increasing in recent years. At present, the methods of diagnosing ACI in clinic are extremely complicated, and an effective index that can effectively diagnose ACI is urgently needed in clinic. This study is designed to investigate the clinical significance of Follistatin-like protein 1 (FSTL1), Bax and Bcl-2 in ACI. A total of 84 cases of ACI patients admitted to our hospital from September 2017 to September 2019 and 90 cases of healthy subjects undergoing physical examination at the same time were selected as the research objects for prospective analysis. The concentrations of FSTL1, Bax and Bcl-2 in the peripheral blood of objects in the two groups were detected to analyze the diagnostic value of FSTL1, Bax and Bcl-2 for ACI, and the correlation of FSTL 1, Bax and Bcl-2 with the infarct size, treatment method and hemorrhagic transformation. Another 20 SD rats were purchased, among which 10 rats were randomly selected for ACI modeling. FSTL1 concentration, Bax and Bcl-2 protein expression in brain tissues of ACI rats and normal rats were detected. FSTL1 and Bax in peripheral blood of ACI patients were higher than those of healthy subjects (p<0.050), and Bcl-2 was lower than those of healthy subjects (p<0.050). It was detected that FSTL1, Bax and Bcl-2 had good diagnostic value for patients with ACI (p<0.001). FSTL1 and Bax decreased while Bcl-2 increased in patients treated with thrombolytic therapy (p<0.050). And FSTL1, Bax and Bcl-2 were closely related to infarct size and hemorrhagic transformation (p<0.050). Logistic regression analysis showed that NIHSS score, atrial fibrillation, infarct volume, FSTL1 and Bax were independent risk factors affecting hemorrhagic transformation in ACI patients (p<0.050), and Bcl-2 was an independent protective factor affecting hemorrhagic transformation in ACI patients (p<0.050). The concentration of FSTL1 and the expression of Bax protein in rat brain tissue were also higher than that in normal rats, while Bcl-2 was lower than that in normal rats (p < 0.001). FSTL1, Bax and Bcl-2 are involved in the occurrence and development of ACI and are closely related to the hemorrhagic transformation of patients. The mechanism by which FSTL1 promotes the occurrence of ACI might be related to promoting the occurrence of inflammatory responses in the brain tissue of patients or accelerating the apoptosis of neurons.
