NOS isoform-specific regulation of basal but not exercise-induced mitochondrial biogenesis in mouse skeletal muscle.
Article in The Journal of physiology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 35 papers.
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
Nitric oxide is a potential regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis. Therefore, we investigated if mice deficient in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS-/-) or neuronal NOS (nNOS-/-) have attenuated activation of skeletal muscle mitochondrial biogenesis in response to exercise. eNOS-/-, nNOS-/- and C57Bl/6 (CON) mice (16.3 +/- 0.2 weeks old) either remained in their cages (basal) or ran on a treadmill (16 m min(-1), 5% grade) for 60 min (n = 8 per group) and were killed 6 h after exercise. Other eNOS-/-, nNOS-/- and CON mice exercise trained for 9 days (60 min per day) and were killed 24 h after the last bout of exercise training. eNOS-/- mice had significantly higher nNOS protein and nNOS-/- mice had significantly higher eNOS protein in the EDL, but not the soleus. The basal mitochondrial biogenesis markers NRF1, NRF2alpha and mtTFA mRNA were significantly (P< 0.05) higher in the soleus and EDL of nNOS-/- mice whilst basal citrate synthase activity was higher in the soleus and basal PGC-1alpha mRNA higher in the EDL. Also, eNOS-/- mice had significantly higher basal citrate synthase activity in the soleus but not the EDL. Acute exercise increased (P< 0.05) PGC-1alpha mRNA in soleus and EDL and NRF2alpha mRNA in the EDL to a similar extent in all genotypes. In addition, short-term exercise training significantly increased cytochrome c protein in all genotypes (P< 0.05) in the EDL. In conclusion, eNOS and nNOS are differentially involved in the basal regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle but are not critical for exercise-induced increases in mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle.
