Integrin αV Mediates the Effects of Irisin on Human Mature Adipocytes.

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
Introdution and Aims: The myokine irisin is critical to modulating adipocytes thermogenesis and influence whole-body metabolism. However, whether there is difference in the effects of irisin on adipocytes derived from different depots remains unknown, and the receptor of irisin on adipocytes is still unclear. In this study, we determine the browning effect of irisin on adipocytes of subcutaneous and visceral human adipose tissue and explore the possibility that integrin αV was the receptor of irisin on human adipocytes.
methodsHuman adipose-derived stem cells were isolated from human subcutaneous and visceral white adipose tissues and induced to differentiate into mature adipocytes, and the expression of UCP1 and thermogenic genes in mature adipocytes were examined with or without irisin treatment and compared between groups of different adiposity and different spots. Immunoprecipitation analysis was used to detect the interaction between irisin and integrin αV on adipocytes, and the protein expression of integrin αV in adipocytes was also compared between groups of different adiposity and anatomic position.
resultsIrisin treatment could increase the expression level of beige adipocyte marker protein UCP1 and specific thermogenic genes in mature adipocytes derived from subcutaneous white adipose tissue but not in visceral adipose tissue. The results of immunoprecipitation showed that irisin could be attached to integrin αV on mature adipocytes, and there was no significant difference in the gene and protein expression of integrin αV in adipocytes, either derived from subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue, or derived from obese and normal-weight individuals.
conclusionThe results of the present study indicated that irisin contributed to the transformation of mature white adipocytes to beige adipocytes in human subcutaneous adipose tissue but not in visceral adipose tissue. Integrin αV may mediate the browning effects of irisin on human mature adipocytes, which could provide the potential therapeutic targets for obesity and metabolic syndrome by promoting human brown adipose tissue activity.
