Urolithin A attenuates bupivacaine-induced neurotoxicity in SH-SY5Y cells by regulating the SIRT1-activated PI3K/AKT pathway.

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
Urolithin A (UroA) is well-recognized for its anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory potentials and has been proven to have neuroprotective effects. Nevertheless, the potential of UroA on bupivacaine (BUP)-induced neurotoxicity has never been reported. Using SH-SY5Y cells to establish a cell model, it was revealed that BUP stimulated cell viability reduction, LDH release increase, and suppression of SIRT1-activated PI3K/AKT signaling in SH-SY5Y cells, whereas UroA treatment caused an effective abrogation of the effects of BUP. Besides, SIRT1 overexpression caused an enhancement in the activity of PI3K/AKT signaling in BUP and UroA co-treated cells, indicating that SIRT1 mediated the activity of PI3K/AKT signaling. Moreover, UroA inhibited BUP-induced apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses in SH-SY5Y cells. However, the effects of UroA on BUP-induced neurotoxicity were all abated by inhibiting SIRT1 or PI3K/AKT signaling through EX527 or LY294002. In conclusion, UroA protected SH-SY5Y cells against BUP-induced injuries through PI3K/AKT signaling in a SIRT1-dependent manner.
