Therapeutic potential of luteolin in neurodegenerative disorders: targeting Nrf2, NFĸB, MAPK, and JAK-STAT pathways to combat neuroinflammation and apoptosis.
Review in Inflammopharmacology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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
Neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's disease, Multiple sclerosis and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, are characterized by progressive neuronal loss, oxidative stress, chronic neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and apoptosis. The Nrf2/ARE, IĸB/NFĸB, MAPK/AP-1, and JAK-STAT signaling pathways play a pivotal role in these pathological processes, making them promising therapeutic targets. Luteolin, a naturally occurring flavonoid, has demonstrated potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties by modulating these interconnected pathways. Activation of Nrf2/ARE signaling by luteolin enhances cellular antioxidant defences, while its inhibition of NFĸB, MAPK/AP-1, and JAK-STAT pathways suppresses neuroinflammation and apoptotic signalling, thereby mitigating neuronal damage. Emerging evidences suggest that luteolin effectively reduces neurotoxic effects by regulating inflammatory cytokine production, stabilizing mitochondrial function, and maintaining redox homeostasis. Its ability to interfere with crosstalk between these signaling pathways highlights its potential as a multi-targeted neuroprotective agent. Preclinical studies have provided strong evidence supporting luteolin's role in mitigating neurodegeneration, suggesting its applicability in neurodegenerative disease management. These findings underscore the therapeutic potential of luteolin in neurodegenerative diseases by targeting multiple pathological mechanisms. However, further investigations are needed to fully elucidate its molecular mechanisms and optimize its therapeutic benefits.
