Our recent studies revealed that high-dose taurine improves hyperactivity in SHR rats by reducing mALFF signal and striatal dopamine uptake. This study further revealed the association between immune factors and hyperactivity in SHR rats fed with high-dose taurine. A positive correlation was detected between systolic blood pressure (SBP) and horizontal locomotion in SHR rats fed with high-dose taurine. Significantly higher striatal Hsp27 and galectin-3 were detected in SHR rats fed with high-dose taurine. Significantly lower IL-2 and IL-6 were detected in SHR rats fed with high-dose taurine, whereas significantly higher IL-10 was detected. Significantly increased splenic CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells was detected in SHR rats fed with high-dose taurine with a negative correlation. These findings suggest that high-dose taurine reduce hyperactive behavior in SHR rats probably via multifactorial modulation on immune system.9enjournal article
