The miRNA-15b/USP7/KDM6B axis engages in the initiation of osteoporosis by modulating osteoblast differentiation and autophagy.

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
Osteoporosis is a metabolic disease that results from oxidative stress or inflammation in renal disorders. microRNAs (miRNAs) are recently implicated to participate in osteoporosis, but the mechanism remains largely unexplored. Herein, we aimed to explore the potential role of miR-15b in osteoblast differentiation and autophagy in osteoporosis. We established osteoporosis models through ovariectomy and determined that miR-15b was highly expressed whereas USP7 and KDM6B were poorly expressed in tissue of osteoporosis mice. Treatment of silenced miR-15b resulted in the elevation of decreased bone mineral density (BMD), the maximum elastic stress and the maximum load of osteoporosis mice. In osteoblasts, miR-15 overexpression decreased proliferation but suppressed the cell differentiation and autophagy, accompanied with decreased expression of USP7. Mechanistically, miR-15 bound and inhibited USP7 expression, while overexpression of USP7 promoted autophagy of osteoblasts. USP7, importantly, strengthened the stability of KDM6B and promoted KDM6B expression. MG132 protease inhibitor increased KDM6B and USP7 expression in osteoblasts. Silencing of KDM6B reversed the promoting effect on autophagy and proliferation induced by overexpression of USP7. Taken altogether, miR-15b inhibits osteoblast differentiation and autophagy to aggravate osteoporosis by targeting USP7 to regulate KDM6B expression.
