miRNA-125b Signaling Ameliorates Liver Injury Against Obstructive Jaundice-Induced Excessive Fibrosis in Experimental Rats.
Article in Yonsei medical journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeMultiple pathways are involved in inducing liver fibrosis, which can damage the integrity of liver. Among them, miR-125b has been found to exert an activating action on hepatic stellate cells. Endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy lead to liver disorders. Here, we evaluated the therapeutic influence of miR-125b on the endoplasmic reticulum function in injured livers submitted to bile duct ligation. MATERIALS AND
methodsFor inducing injury, bile duct ligation was done on miR-125b transgenic rats (miR-125b-Tg) in wild type rats. The rat T-6 cells received transfection of miR-125b mimic and Tunicamycin. Protein expressions were observed by western blot analysis.
resultsCompared to wild type rats, liver-injured rats showed significant impairment of liver function as assessed by the total bilirubin levels. The miR-125b-Tg rats showed decrease in activity of aspartate transaminase and alanine transaminase. Liver tissues of miR-125b-Tg rats showed weaker fibrotic matrix formation. Upregulation of miR-125b decreased the bile duct ligation-mediated hepatic disturbances for the expressions of endoplasmic reticulum kinase, inositol-requiring kinase 1alpha, sXBP1, CHOP, LC3, p62, ULK, and caspase-3/-8/-9. T-6 cells transfected with miR-125b mimic and treated with Tunicamycin caused decrease in levels of cleaved caspase-3, sXBP1, CHOP, and LC3. The miR-125b signaling showed protective effect on the liver tissues subjected to injury and fibrosis histopathology.
conclusionThis study demonstrates a novel insight into the miR125b-mediated stabilization of endoplasmic reticulum integrity, which slows the progression of injury-induced hepatic deterioration.
