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

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are ubiquitously-existing multipotent progenitors that can self-renew and differentiate into multiple lineages including osteocytes, chondrocytes, adipocytes, tenocytes and myocytes. MSCs represent one of the most commonly-used adult progenitors and serve as excellent progenitor cell models for investigating lineage-specific differentiation regulated by various cellular signaling pathways, such as bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). As members of TGFβ superfamily, BMPs play diverse and important roles in development and adult tissues. At least 14 BMPs have been identified in mammals. Different BMPs exert distinct but overlapping biological functions. Through a comprehensive analysis of 14 BMPs in MSCs, we demonstrated that BMP9 is one of the most potent BMPs in inducing osteogenic differentiation of MSCs. Nonetheless, a global mechanistic view of BMP signaling in regulating the proliferation and differentiation of MSCs remains to be fully elucidated. Here, we conducted a comprehensive transcriptomic profiling in the MSCs stimulated by 14 types of BMPs. Hierarchical clustering analysis classifies 14 BMPs into three subclusters: an osteo/chondrogenic/adipogenic cluster, a tenogenic cluster, and BMP3 cluster. We also demonstrate that six BMPs (e.g., BMP2, BMP3, BMP4, BMP7, BMP8, and BMP9) can induce I-Smads effectively, while BMP2, BMP3, BMP4, BMP7, and BMP11 up-regulate Smad-independent MAP kinase pathway. Furthermore, we show that many BMPs can upregulate the expression of the signal mediators of Wnt, Notch and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways. While the reported transcriptomic changes need to be further validated, our expression profiling represents the first-of-its-kind to interrogate a comprehensive transcriptomic landscape regulated by the 14 types of BMPs in MSCs.
