Genome-wide retinal transcriptome analysis of endotoxin-induced uveitis in mice with next-generation sequencing.

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
purposeEndotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) is a well-established mouse model for studying human acute inflammatory uveitis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the genome-wide retinal transcriptome profile of EIU.
methodsThe anterior segment of the mice was examined with a slit-lamp, and clinical scores were evaluated simultaneously. The histological changes in the posterior segment of the eyes were evaluated with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. A high throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) strategy using the Illumina Hiseq 2500 platform was applied to characterize the retinal transcriptome profile from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated and untreated mice. The validation of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) was analyzed with real-time PCR.
resultsAt the 24th hour after challenge, the clinical score of the LPS group was significantly higher (3.83±0.75, mean ± standard deviation [SD]) than that of the control group (0.08±0.20, mean ± SD; p<0.001). The histological evaluation showed a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated into the vitreous cavity in the LPS group compared with the control group. A total of 478 DEGs were identified with RNA-seq. Among these genes, 406 were upregulated and 72 were downregulated in the LPS group. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment showed three significantly enriched upregulated terms. Twenty-one upregulated and seven downregulated pathways were remarkably enriched by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment. Eleven inflammatory response-, complement system-, fibrinolytic system-, and cell stress-related genes were validated to show similar results as the RNA-seq.
conclusionsWe first reported the retinal transcriptome profile of the EIU mouse with RNA-seq. The results indicate that the abnormal changes in the inflammatory response-, complement system-, fibrinolytic system-, and cell stress-related genes occurred concurrently in EIU. These genes may play an important role in the pathogenesis of EIU. This study will lead to a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms and shed light on discovering novel therapeutic targets for ocular inflammation.
