1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Stem cell transplantation therapy has provided promising hope for the treatment of a variety of neurodegenerative disorders. Among challenges in developing disease-specific stem cell therapies, identification of key regulatory signals for neuronal differentiation is an essential and critical issue that remains to be resolved. Several lines of evidence suggest that JNK, also known as SAPK, is involved in neuronal differentiation and neural plasticity. It may also play a role in neurite outgrowth during neuronal development. In cultured mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells, we test the hypothesis that the JNK pathway is required for neuronal differentiation. After neural induction, the cells were plated and underwent differentiation for up to 5 days. Western blot analysis showed a dramatic increase in phosphorylated JNKs at 1-5 days after plating. The phosphorylation of JNK subsequently induced activation of STAT1 and STAT3 that lead to expressions of GAP-43, neurofilament, βIII-tubulin, and synaptophysin. NeuN-colabelled with DCX, a marker for neuroblast, was enhanced by JNK signaling. Neuronal differentiation of ES cells was attenuated by treatment with SP600125, which inhibited the JNK activation and decreased the activation of STAT1 and STAT3, and consequently suppressed the expressions of GAP-43, neurofilament, βIII-tubulin, and the secretion of VEGF. Data from immunocytochemistry indicated that the nuclear translocation of STAT3 was reduced, and neurites of ES-derived neurons were shorter after treatment with SP600125 compared with control cells. These results suggest that the JNK-STAT3 pathway is a key regulator required for early neuronal differentiation of mouse ES cells. Further investigation on expression of JNK isoforms showed that JNK-3 was significantly upregulated during the differentiation stage, while JNK-1 and JNK-2 levels decreased. Our study provided interesting information on JNK functions during ES cell neuronal differentiation.
