The ataxia-telangiectasia mutated gene product regulates the cellular acid-labile sulfide fraction.
Article in DNA repair, 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
The ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein regulates cell cycle checkpoints, the cellular redox state, and double-stranded DNA break repair. ATM loss causes the disorder ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T), distinguished by ataxia, telangiectasias, dysregulated cellular redox and iron responses, and an increased cancer risk. We examined the sulfur pool in A-T cells, with and without an ATM expression vector. While free and bound sulfide levels were not changed with ATM expression, the acid-labile sulfide faction was significantly increased. ATM expression also increased cysteine desulfurase (NFS1), NFU1 iron-sulfur cluster scaffold homolog protein, and several mitochondrial complex I proteins' expression. Additionally, ATM expression suppressed cystathionine β-synthase and cystathionine γ-synthase protein expression, cystathionine γ-synthase enzymatic activity, and increased the reduced to oxidized glutathione ratio. This last observation is interesting, as dysregulated glutathione is implicated in A-T pathology. As ATM expression increases the expression of proteins central in initiating 2Fe-2S and 4Fe-4S cluster formation (NFS1 and NFU1, respectively), and the acid-labile sulfide faction is composed of sulfur incorporated into Fe-S clusters, our data indicates that ATM regulates aspects of Fe-S cluster biosynthesis, the transsulfuration pathway, and glutathione redox cycling. Thus, our data may explain some of the redox- and iron-related pathologies seen in A-T.
