UFL1 regulates milk protein and fat synthesis-related gene expression of bovine mammary epithelial cells probably via the mTOR signaling pathway.
Article in In vitro cellular & developmental biology. Animal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
UFL1 is an ufmylation (a novel post-translational modification) E3 ligase, mainly located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), that has emerged as a significant regulator of several physiological and pathological processes. Yet its physiological function in milk synthesis in bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs) remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of UFL1 in milk protein and fat synthesis-related gene expression, with a particular emphasis on the role of UFL1 in LPS-treated BMECs. Results showed that UFL1 depletion significantly reduced the expression of milk protein and fat synthesis-related gene and mTOR phosphorylation in both normal and LPS-treated BMECs. Overexpression of UFL1 enhanced the activation of the mTOR and milk protein and fat synthesis-related gene expression. Collectively, these above results strongly demonstrate that UFL1 could regulate milk protein and fat synthesis-related gene expression of BMECs probably via the mTOR signaling pathway.
