Extracellular inosine participates in tumor necrosis factor-alpha induced nitric oxide production in cultured Sertoli cells.

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
Recent reports have described purinergic modulation of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) signaling in neutrophils and astrocytes. In Sertoli cells, both TNF-R1 and TNF-R2 TNF-alpha receptors are present and this cytokine modulates many functions of these cells related to the maintenance of spermatogenesis. Sertoli cells express distinct purinoreceptors and previous work has shown that these cells secrete extracellular nucleotides and their metabolites. In this work, we studied the possible role of extracellular purines in TNF-alpha signaling in cultured Sertoli cells. This cytokine increased inosine concentration from 30 min to 6 h, with no effect at 24 h. Both TNF-alpha and inosine increased nitrite accumulation and nitric oxide synthase activity. Erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (EHNA), an adenosine deaminase inhibitor, abolished the TNF-alpha induced inosine increase, nitrite accumulation and nitric oxide synthase activity. These results suggest that extracellular inosine acts as intermediary in TNF-alpha stimulated nitric oxide production in cultured Sertoli cells.
