Neuroprotective Efficacy of Fisetin Against VPA-Induced Autistic Neurobehavioral Alterations by Targeting Dysregulated Redox Homeostasis.
Article in Journal of molecular neuroscience : MN, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition, and it's associated pathophysiology, viz., oxidative stress and altered cellular homeostasis, has been extensively intertwined with behavioral impairments. Therefore, targeting oxidative stress and redox cellular homeostasis could be beneficial in relieving autistic-like symptoms. For this purpose, we examined a library of nutraceutical compounds that led us to a bioflavonoid fisetin. Autism-like neurobehavior was induced by subjecting the pregnant rodents to valproic acid at the time of neural tube closure (GD12.5). In this novel study, fisetin was evaluated for its neuroprotective potential at gestational (GD13 until delivery) and post-weaning developmental windows (PND 23-32) in VPA-induced rodent model of autism. Developmental VPA exposure increased intracellular ROS production, oxidative stress, altered AChE and ATPases in brain regions, and induced autistic-like behavioral impairments (social, repetitive, stereotyped, and sensorimotor). The present findings suggested that gestational and post-weaning fisetin treatment significantly improved the behavioral impairments by attenuating elevated oxidative stress, ROS, lipid peroxidation, and re-establishing redox homeostasis. Also, it effectively reinstated the reduced levels of endogenous antioxidants, glutathione, AChE, and ATPases by its antioxidant potential. Therefore, fisetin with its properties could be used as a potential therapeutic agent in overcoming the symptoms associated with autism.
