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

objectiveSalt-induced kinase 1 (SIK1) acts as a key modulator in many physiological processes. However, the effects of SIK1 on gluconeogenesis and the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. In this study, we found that a natural compound phanginin A could activate SIK1 and further inhibit gluconeogenesis. The mechanisms by which phanginin A activates SIK1 and inhibits gluconeogenesis were explored in primary mouse hepatocytes, and the effects of phanginin A on glucose homeostasis were investigated in ob/ob mice.

methodsThe effects of phanginin A on gluconeogenesis and SIK1 phosphorylation were examined in primary mouse hepatocytes. Pan-SIK inhibitor and siRNA-mediated knockdown were used to elucidate the involvement of SIK1 activation in phanginin A-reduced gluconeogenesis. LKB1 knockdown was used to explore how phanginin A activated SIK1. SIK1 overexpression was used to evaluate its effect on gluconeogenesis, PDE4 activity, and the cAMP pathway. The acute and chronic effects of phanginin A on metabolic abnormalities were observed in ob/ob mice.

resultsPhanginin A significantly increased SIK1 phosphorylation through LKB1 and further suppressed gluconeogenesis by increasing PDE4 activity and inhibiting the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway in primary mouse hepatocytes, and this effect was blocked by pan-SIK inhibitor HG-9-91-01 or siRNA-mediated knockdown of SIK1. Overexpression of SIK1 in hepatocytes increased PDE4 activity, reduced cAMP accumulation, and thereby inhibited gluconeogenesis. Acute treatment with phanginin A reduced gluconeogenesis in vivo, accompanied by increased SIK1 phosphorylation and PDE4 activity in the liver. Long-term treatment of phanginin A profoundly reduced blood glucose levels and improved glucose tolerance and dyslipidemia in ob/ob mice.

conclusionWe discovered an unrecognized effect of phanginin A in suppressing hepatic gluconeogenesis and revealed a novel mechanism that activation of SIK1 by phanginin A could inhibit gluconeogenesis by increasing PDE4 activity and suppressing the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway in the liver. We also highlighted the potential value of phanginin A as a lead compound for treating type 2 diabetes.
