Transcriptomic analyses suggest a dominant role of insulin in the coordinated control of energy metabolism and ureagenesis in goat liver.

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
backgroundThe ureagenesis plays a central role in the homeostatic control of nitrogen metabolism. This process occurs in the liver, the key metabolic organ in the maintenance of energy homeostasis in the body. To date, the understanding of the influencing factors and regulators of ureagenesis in ruminants is still poor. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between energy metabolism and ureagenesis and detect the direct regulators of ureagenesis in the liver by using RNA-seq technology.
resultsEighteen four-month-old male goats were divided into two groups randomly and received a diet containing 10% (LNFC group, n = 9) or 30% non-fiber carbohydrate (MNFC group, n = 9), respectively, for four weeks. The global gene expression analysis of liver samples showed that, compared with a LNFC diet, the MNFC diet promoted the expression of genes required for synthesis of fatty acid and glycerol, whereas it suppressed those related to fatty acid oxidation, gluconeogenesis from amino acids and ureagenesis. Additionally, gene expression for rate-limiting enzymes of ureagenesis were highly correlated to the gene expression of key enzymes of both fatty acid synthesis and glycerol synthesis (Spearman correlation coefficient > 0.8 and p < 0.05). In the differentially expressed signaling pathways related to the endocrine system, the MNFC diet activated the insulin and PPAR signaling pathway, whereas it suppressed the leptin-JAK/STAT signaling pathway, compared with the LNFC diet. Reverse transcription quantitative PCR analyses of 40 differentially expressed genes confirmed the RNA-seq results (R
conclusionOur study indicated that a dietary NFC-induced increase of energy supply promoted lipid anabolism and decreased ureagenesis in the caprine liver. By combining our results with previously published reports, insulin signaling can be suggested to play the dominant role in the coordinated control of hepatic energy metabolism and ureagenesis.
