Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 3 (ACE3) Protects Against Pressure Overload-Induced Cardiac Hypertrophy.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundAngiotensin-converting enzyme 3 (ACE3) is a recently defined homolog of ACE. However, the pathophysiological function of ACE3 is largely unknown. Here, we aim to explore the role of ACE3 in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. METHODS AND
resultsNeonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) with gain and loss of function of ACE3 and mice with global knockout or cardiac-specific overexpression of ACE3 were used in this study. In cultured cardiomyocytes, ACE3 conferred protection against angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypertrophic growth. Cardiac hypertrophy in mice was induced by aortic banding (AB) and the extent of hypertrophy was analyzed through echocardiographic, pathological, and molecular analyses. Our data demonstrated that ACE3-deficient mice exhibited more pronounced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis and a strong decrease in cardiac contractile function, conversely, cardiac-specific ACE3-overexpressing mice displayed an attenuated hypertrophic phenotype, compared with control mice, respectively. Analyses of the underlying molecular mechanism revealed that ACE3-mediated protection against cardiac hypertrophy by suppressing the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK)-regulated extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK1/2) signaling, which was further evidenced by the observation that inhibition of the MEK-ERK1/2 signaling by U0126 rescued the exacerbated hypertrophic phenotype in ACE3-deficient mice.
conclusionsOur comprehensive analyses suggest that ACE3 inhibits pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy by blocking the MEK-ERK1/2 signaling pathway.
