Syntenin regulates melanogenesis via the p38 MAPK pathway.

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
Melanogenesis is the synthesis of the skin pigment melanin, which serves a critical role in the study of pigmentary skin diseases. Syntenin has been identified as a melanosome protein, but its role in melanogenesis is not completely understood. The present study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms underlying syntenin on melanogenesis in immortalized human melanocytes. Depletion of syntenin expression increased both tyrosinase (Tyr) activity and melanin content. Syntenin silencing also increased the protein expression levels of Tyr, pre‑melanosomal protein and microphthalmia‑associated transcription factor. In addition, the results indicated that syntenin regulated melanogenesis by upregulating the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen‑activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK). Taken together, these findings suggested that the regulation of melanogenesis by syntenin may be mediated by the activation of p38 MAPK and that syntenin might provide new insights into the pathogenesis of pigmented diseases.
