ELISA based quantification of Pax6 expression in the developing Zebrafish embryos.
Article in Annals of neurosciences, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundTranscription factors are the key regulators of metabolic pathways in the cells, tissues and organ development during embryogenesis. Pax6 is a transcription factor involved in vertebrate eye, brain and central nervous system formation during development. PURPOSE: A reliable and sensitive assay for the spatiotemporal expression, quantification and detection of Pax6 is not available so far in zebrafish as a developmental model, hence the objective of this work is to develop quantitative assay in zebrafish embryos.
methodsThe Pax6 transcription factor was purified by heparin agarose affinity chromatography and DEAE cellulose chromatography techniques from the developing zebrafish embryos. The purity was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and western blotting using Pax6 mouse monoclonal antibody. The standard graph was plotted for Pax6 and the expressions in seventeen developmental stages were quantified by indirect ELISA.
resultsThe maximum expression of Pax6 was detected at 8 hpf (hours post fertilization) and it was quantified as 179 ng/embryo from the average total protein of 9.5 µg/embryo. The zebrafish Pax6 protein was detected as 48 kDa and confirmed by western blotting.
conclusionThis study paves way to quantify the level of expression of proteins or transcription factors during early embryonic and larval development or embryogenesis using zebrafish as model system.
