Vitexin enhances mitophagy and improves renal ischemia-reperfusion injury by regulating the p38/MAPK pathway by Jianan Chen, Chaowei Chen, Chang Lv, Runtao Feng, Weibo Zhong, Yongguang Liu, Song Zhou, Ming Zhao

“…To further investigate the mechanism, we used network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques to predict potential vitexin targets in renal IRI. Results from Western blotting and immunofluorescence assays indicate that vitexin may promote mitophagy by suppressing the phosphorylation of the pivotal p38 protein in the p38/MAPK signaling pathway, offering protection against renal IRI. …”
