MiR-1260b protects against LPS-induced degenerative changes in nucleus pulposus cells through targeting TCF7L2.
Article in Human cell, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Nucleus pulposus (NP) cells play a critical role in maintaining intervertebral disc integrity through producing the components of extracellular matrix (ECM). NP cell dysfunction, including senescence and hyper-apoptosis, has been regarded as critical events during intervertebral disc degeneration development. In the present study, we found that Transcription Factor 7-Like 2 (TCF7L2) was overexpressed within degenerative intervertebral disc tissue samples, and TCF7L2 silencing improved lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced repression on NP cell proliferation, ECM synthesis, and LPS-induced NP cell senescence. miR-1260b directly targeted TCF7L2 and inhibited TCF7L2 expression. miR-1260b overexpression improved LPS-induced degenerative changes in NP cells; more importantly, TCF7L2 overexpression significantly reversed the effects of miR-1260b overexpression on LPS-stimulated degenerative changes within NP cells. For the first time, we demonstrated the function of the miR-1260b/TCF7L2 axis on the phenotypic maintenance of chondrocyte-like NP cells and ECM synthesis by NP cells under LPS stimulation.
