MiR-708-5p/Pit-1 axis mediates high phosphate-induced calcification in vascular smooth muscle cells via Wnt8b/β-catenin pathway.
Article in The Kaohsiung journal of medical sciences, 2022. 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
Recently, the underlying mechanism of vascular calcification (VC) has been partially elucidated. However, it is still high incidence, and no effective treatment has been found. This study aims at figuring out the underlying mechanisms of microRNA-708-5p (miR-708-5p)/sodium-phosphate transporter 1 (Pit-1) axis in high phosphate (HP)-induced VC of T/G HA-VSMCs. Alizarin Red S staining was used to evaluate calcium salt deposition, and the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was determined by measuring the absorbance at 405 nm. RT-qPCR and Western blot were performed to assess the levels of miR-708-5p and Pit-1, the levels of ALP, Pit-1, β-catenin, glycogen synthesis kinase 3 β (GSK3β), and p-GSK3β proteins, respectively. The interaction between miR-708-5p and Pit-1 was validated by luciferase reporter assay. Our findings illustrated that miR-708-5p was downregulated and Pit-1was upregulated in HP-induced VC. MiR-708-5p mimics inhibited HP-induced VC. Further experiments demonstrated that miR-708-5p targets Pit-1. In addition, miR-708-5p inactivates the Wnt8b/β-catenin pathway via targeting Pit-1 to reduce HP-induced VC. MiR-708-5p has a crucial effect on VC via targeting Pit-1 and inhibiting Wnt8b/β-catenin pathway, it may serve as a new target for VC treatment.
