Mitochondria-Targeted Antioxidant Mitoquinone Maintains Mitochondrial Homeostasis through the Sirt3-Dependent Pathway to Mitigate Oxidative Damage Caused by Renal Ischemia/Reperfusion.
Article in Oxidative medicine and cellular longevity, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a critical factor contributing to oxidative stress and apoptosis in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) diseases. Mitoquinone (MitoQ) is a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant whose potent anti-I/R injury capacity has been demonstrated in organs such as the heart and the intestine. In the present study, we explored the role of MitoQ in maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis and attenuating oxidative damage in renal I/R injury. We discovered that the decreased renal function and pathological damage caused by renal I/R injury were significantly ameliorated by MitoQ. MitoQ markedly reversed mitochondrial damage after I/R injury and inhibited renal reactive oxygen species production. In vitro, hypoxia/reoxygenation resulted in increased mitochondrial fission and decreased mitochondrial fusion in human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2), which were partially prevented by MitoQ. MitoQ treatment inhibited oxidative stress and reduced apoptosis in HK-2 cells by restoring mitochondrial membrane potential, promoting ATP production, and facilitating mitochondrial fusion. Deeply, renal I/R injury led to a decreased expression of sirtuin-3 (Sirt3), which was recovered by MitoQ. Moreover, the inhibition of Sirt3 partially eliminated the protective effect of MitoQ on mitochondria and increased oxidative damage. Overall, our data demonstrate a mitochondrial protective effect of MitoQ, which raises the possibility of MitoQ as a novel therapy for renal I/R.
