Naringenin alleviates intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury by inhibiting ferroptosis via targeting YAP/STAT3 signaling axis

Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is a significant clinical emergency, and investigating novel therapeutic approaches and understanding their underlying mechanisms is essential for improving patient outcomes. Naringenin (Nar), a flavanone present in tomatoes and citrus fruits, is frequently consumed in the human diet and recognized for having immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Despite Nar being able to alleviate intestinal IRI, the exact molecular mechanisms remain elusive.
