Different Characteristics of Hepcidin Expression in IL-6+/+ and IL-6-/- Neurons and Astrocytes Treated with Lipopolysaccharides.
Article in Neurochemical research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
A region-specific regulation of inflammation on the expression hepcidin in the brain has been demonstrated, however, it remains unknown whether there is also a cell-specific regulation of inflammation on hepcidin in the brain. Here, we investigated the effects of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) on the expression of hepcidin mRNA and also the expression of IL-6 mRNA, the phosphorylation of STAT3 and the expression of ferroportin 1 (Fpn1) and ferritin light chain (Ft-L) proteins in neurons and astrocytes obtained from wild type (IL-6+/+) and IL-6 knockout (IL-6-/-) mice. We demonstrated that the responses of the expression of hepcidin and IL-6 mRNAs, the phosphorylation of STAT3, and the expression of Fpn1 protein to LPS in IL-6+/+ astrocytes and also the responses of the expression of hepcidin mRNA, the phosphorylation of STAT3 and the expression of Fpn1 protein to IL-6 in IL-6-/- astrocytes were much stronger than those in IL-6+/+ and IL-6-/- neurons. A significant increase in Ft-L was found in LPS-treated IL-6+/+ and IL-6-treated IL-6-/- astrocytes, but not in LPS-treated IL-6+/+ and IL-6-treated IL-6-/- neurons. Our findings provide in vitro evidence for the existence of a cell-specific regulation of LPS on the expression of hepcidin and also Ft-L in the brain.
