Analysis of differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs in LPS-induced human HMC3 microglial cells.
Article in BMC genomics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as key modulators of inflammatory gene expression, but their roles in neuroinflammation are poorly understood. Here, we identified the inflammation-related lncRNAs and correlated mRNAs of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated human microglial cell line HMC3. We explored their potential roles and interactions using bioinformatics tools such as gene ontology (GO), kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG), and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA).
resultsWe identified 5 differentially expressed (DE) lncRNAs, 4 of which (AC083837.1, IRF1-AS1, LINC02605, and MIR3142HG) are novel for microglia. The DElncRNAs with their correlated DEmRNAs (99 total) fell into two network modules that both were enriched with inflammation-related RNAs. However, treatment with the anti-inflammatory agent JQ1, an inhibitor of the bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) protein BRD4, neutralized the LPS effect in only one module, showing little or even enhancing effect on the other.
conclusionsThese results provide insight into, and a resource for studying, the regulation of microglia-mediated neuroinflammation and its potential therapy by small-molecule BET inhibitors.
