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

Hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation is a significant event in the development of liver fibrosis. Promoting the activated HSCs apoptosis contributes to the reversal of liver fibrosis. Autophagy is considered to be critical for many cellular and pathological processes including liver fibrosis. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4), another member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channel, is proved to be a vital modulator in regulating HSC proliferation during liver fibrosis. However, the precise mechanism of TRPV4 on HSC apoptosis is still unclear. Here, we explored the role of TRPV4 in regulating HSC-T6 cell apoptosis. Our study detected that the expressions of TRPV4 mRNA and protein were dramatically increased in HSC-T6 in response to TGF-β1 stimulation by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Moreover, the HSC-T6 transfected with si-TRPV4 increased apoptosis and inhibited autophagy. In addition, the HSC-T6 treated with 4α-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate results in suppression of apoptosis and increase of autophagy. Furthermore, we indicated that TRPV4 induces autophagy by regulating AKT signaling pathway. In addition, we found that blockade of autophagy by chemical antagonists chloroquine (CQ) leads to increased apoptosis. Furthermore, blocking autophagy by CQ did not lead to a distinct change with or without TRPV4 over-expression. These results indicated that TRPV4 could inhibit HSCs apoptosis partially by regulating autophagy-dependent AKT signaling pathway activation.
