Interference of S100A16 suppresses lipid accumulation and inflammation in high glucose-induced HK-2 cells.

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
purposeDiabetic nephropathy (DN) is a major complication of diabetic mellitus and usually leads to the end-stage renal disease. Inflammation-induced lipid disorders have been proposed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of DN. S100A16 is a novel adipogenic factor, but has not been investigated in DN. This study aims to explore the role of S100A16 in high glucose (HG)-induced HK-2 cells.
methodsCCK-8 assay was used to detect cell viability. Cell transfection was performed to knockdown S100A16. Oil red staining was performed to assay lipid accumulation. qRT-PCR and western blotting were conducted to examine corresponding gene expression. Intracellular cholesterol was determined by enzymatic assay. Inflammatory cytokines production was measured using ELISA kits.
resultsThe results exhibited lipid accumulation and upregulation of S100A16 in HG-induced HK-2 cells. S100A16 knockdown significantly reduced lipid droplets and cholesterol, and decreased the production of inflammatory cytokines induced by HG. Besides, S100A16 knockdown decreased the expression of SCAP, SREBP1, SCD1 and SCAP. However, the inhibitory effect in HG-induced HK-2 cells made by S100A16 was reversed by SREBP1 overexpression.
conclusionThese results suggested that S100A16 knockdown might protect against HG-induced lipid accumulation and inflammation in HK-2 cells through regulating SCAP/SREBP1 signaling.
