SRPK2 Expression and Beta-Amyloid Accumulation Are Associated With BV2 Microglia Activation.
Article in Frontiers in integrative neuroscience, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionThe extracellular deposition of β-amyloid (Aβ) is a pathological hallmark in Alzheimer's disease (AD), which induces microglial activation in the pathology of AD. The expression of serine/threonine-protein kinase 2 (SRPK2) is increased in the brain tissues of patients with AD. In this study, we examined the effect of SRPK2 in the activation of microglia.
methodsMicroglia (BV2) cells were cultured and the expression of SRPK2 was enhanced by transfection of SRPK2 recombinant vectors or knockdown by SRPK2 small interfering RNA (siRNA). The cells were stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) + interferon-γ (IFN-γ) or Aβ
resultsThe expression of SRPK2 was related to the phenotype polarization changes of microglia with increased expression of CD16/32 and IBA-1. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α was increased, whereas the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 was decreased in the BV2 cells with SRPK2 overexpression. Moreover, with the expression enhancement of SRPK2, the BV2 cells had a higher proliferation rate. Aβ treatment can promote SRPK2 expression in BV2 cells. Aβ or LPS + IFN-γ promoted the production of cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α but decreased cytokine IL-10 in the BV2 cells. SRPK2 deficiency alleviated the cytotoxic effects of Aβ or LPS + IFN-γ exposed microglia on HT22 cells. In addition, the activated Akt pathway promoted the expression of SRPK2 in the BV2 cells.
conclusionOur data have found that enhanced SRPK2 expression contributed to the proinflammatory activation of microglia. Thus, SRPK2 may be a key modulating pathway of inflammatory mediators in AD pathology.
