Enhanced insulin secretion from engineered 3T3-L1 preadipocytes by induction of cellular differentiation.

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
We have established insulin-secreting cell line, L1-INS/fur cells, by engineering 3T3-L1 murine preadipocytes with human preproinsulin cDNA. Analysis with HPLC, mass spectrometry and immunological assay identified human insulin in the culture medium. Notably, secretion of insulin from L1-INS/fur cell was increased 8.2 times higher after induction of cellular differentiation. The increment of insulin secretion during differentiation was further enhanced by additive treatment with thiazolidinedione, a promoting agent of adipocyte differentiation. This observation strongly suggests that the enhancement of insulin secretion is tightly associated with cellular differentiation process itself. Expression rate of the insulin transgene was not changed after the additional treatment with thiazolidinedione. On the other hand, furin gene expression by Northern analysis showed an increase, and Western analysis revealed even more reduction in cellular content of proinsulin. These results indicate that mechanism of the observed enhancement in insulin secretion during the differentiation is mainly due to increased capacity of the proinsulin processing by induction of furin. Results of our present study will provide important information on cell-based therapy using undifferentiated progenitors and tissue stem cells.
