Inhibitory Effect of S100A11 on Airway Smooth Muscle Contraction and Airway Hyperresponsiveness.
Article in Current medical science, 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
objectiveS100A11 is a member of the S100 calcium-binding protein family and has intracellular and extracellular regulatory activities. We previously reported that S100A11 was differentially expressed in the respiratory tracts of asthmatic rats as compared with normal controls. Here, we aimed to analyze the potential of S100A11 to regulate both allergen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) as well as acetylcholine (ACh)-induced hypercontractility of airway smooth muscle (ASM) and contraction of ASM cells (ASMCs).
methodsPurified recombinant rat S100A11 protein (rS100A11) was administered to OVA-sensitized and challenged rats and then the AHR of animals was measured. The relaxation effects of rS100A11 on ASM were detected using isolated tracheal rings and primary ASMCs. The expression levels of un-phosphorylated myosin light chain (MLC) and phosphorylated MLC in ASMCs were analyzed using Western blotting.
resultsTreatment with rS100A11 attenuated AHR in the rats. ASM contraction assays showed that rS100A11 reduced the contractile responses of isolated tracheal rings and primary ASMCs treated with ACh. In addition, rS100A11 markedly decreased the ACh-induced phosphorylation of the myosin light chain in ASMCs. Moreover, rS100A11 also suppressed the contractile response of tracheal rings in calcium-free buffer medium.
conclusionThese results indicate that S100A11 protein can relieve AHR by relaxing ASM independently of extracellular calcium. Our data support the idea that S100A11 is a potential therapeutic target for reducing airway resistance in asthma patients.
