YTHDF1-mediated sphingosine kinase 2 upregulation alleviates bupivacaine-induced neurotoxicity via the PI3K/AKT axis.

Yuan R, Wu CAbstract
Bupivacaine (BUP), a long-acting local anesthetic, has been widely used in analgesia and anesthesia. However, evidence strongly suggests that excessive application of BUP may lead to neurotoxicity in neurons. Sphingosine kinase 2 (SPHK2) has been reported to exert neuroprotective effects. In this study, we intended to investigate the potential role and mechanism of SPHK2 in BUP-induced neurotoxicity in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons.
