Fucoidan Inhibits NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation by Enhancing p62/SQSTM1-Dependent Selective Autophagy to Alleviate Atherosclerosis.
Article in Oxidative medicine and cellular longevity, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 40 papers.
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
NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation contributes to the progression of atherosclerosis, and autophagy inhibits inflammasome activation by targeting macrophages. We investigated whether fucoidan, a marine sulfated polysaccharide derived from brown seaweeds, could reduce NLRP3 inflammasome activation by enhancing sequestosome 1 (p62/SQSTM1)-dependent selective autophagy to alleviate atherosclerosis in high-fat-fed ApoE-/- mice with partial carotid ligation and differentiated THP-1 cells incubated with oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL). Fucoidan significantly ameliorated lipid accumulation, attenuated progression of carotid atherosclerotic plaques, deregulated the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome, autophagy receptor p62, and upregulated microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3)-II/I levels. Transmission electron microscopy and GFP-RFP-LC3 lentivirus transfection further demonstrated that fucoidan could activate autophagy. Mechanistically, fucoidan remarkably inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation, which was mostly dependent on autophagy. The inhibitory effects of fucoidan on NLRP3 inflammasome were enhanced by autophagy activator rapamycin (Rapa) and alleviated by autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (3-MA). Fucoidan promoted the colocalization of NLRP3 and p62. Knockdown of p62 and ATG5 by small interfering RNA significantly reduced the inhibitory effects of fucoidan treatment on NLRP3 inflammasome. The data suggest that fucoidan can inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activation by enhancing p62/SQSTM1-dependent selective autophagy to alleviate atherosclerosis.
