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

MAIN

conclusionNitric oxide signal and GSNOR activity play an essential role for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii response to salt stress. The unicellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is one of the most important model organisms phylogenetically situated between higher plants and animals. In the present study, we used comparative proteomics and physiological approaches to study the mechanisms underlying the response to salt stress in C. reinhardtii. We identified 74 proteins that accumulated differentially after salt stress, including oxidative enzymes and enzymes associated with nitric oxide (NO) metabolism, cell damage, and cell autophagy processes. A set of antioxidant enzymes, as well as S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) activity, were induced to balance the cellular redox status during short-term salt stress. Enzymes involved in DNA repair and cell autophagy also contribute to adaptation to short-term salt stress. However, under long-term salt stress, antioxidant enzymes and GSNOR were gradually inactivated through protein S-nitrosylation, leading to oxidative damage and a reduction in cell viability. Modulating the protein S-nitrosylation levels by suppressing GSNOR activity or adding thioredoxin affected the plant's adaptation to salt stress, through altering the redox status and DNA damage and autophagy levels. Based on these data, we propose that unicellular algae use multiple strategies to adapt to salt stress, and that, during this process, GSNOR activity and protein S-nitrosylation levels play important roles.
