MicroRNA-126a-5p Exerts Neuroprotective Effects on Ischemic Stroke via Targeting NADPH Oxidase 2.
Article in Neuropsychiatric disease and treatment, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundIschemic stroke is a destructive cerebrovascular disorder related to oxidative stress; NOX2 is a major source for ROS production; and miR-126a-5p is involved in several diseases, such as abdominal aortic aneurysm. We investigated the role of miR-126a-5p in regulating NOX2 in ischemic stroke.
methodsMiR-126a-5p and NOX2 were examined in the brains of rats subjected to cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) by RT-PCR and Western blot. MiR-126a-5p agomir was delivered to examine the effects of miR-126a-5p on I/R injury. The neurological deficit, infarct volume, and brain water content were evaluated. NOX activity, ROS production, and MDA and SOD levels were detected to assess oxidative stress. H&E staining was used to examine cell state. Apoptosis was evaluated by TUNEL, caspase-3 activity, and cleaved-caspase-3 protein level. The relationship between miR-126a-5p and NOX2 was analyzed by bioinformatics and luciferase reporter assay. MiR-126a-5p mimic, miR-126a-5p inhibitor, or pcDNA-NOX2 were transfected in SH-SY5Y cells to further assess the effects of miR-126a-5p on OGD/R-induced cells injury.
resultsNOX2 was upregulated and miR-126a-5p was down-regulated in the brains of I/R rats. MiR-126a-5p agomir obviously reduced the neurological deficit, infarct volume, brain water content, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in I/R rats. MiR-126a-5p targeted NOX2 directly and regulated NOX2 negatively. Moreover, miR-126a-5p mimic elevated cell viability and inhibited oxidative stress and apoptosis in OGD/R-treated SH-SY5Y cells, while miR-126a-5p inhibitor had the opposite effects. NOX2 overexpression antagonized the protective effects of miR-126a-5p mimic on OGD/R-induced cell injury.
conclusionMiR-126a-5p is a novel potential target for ischemic stroke therapy due to its protection against cerebral I/R injury via directly targeting NOX2.
