Transcription Factor BCL11A Regulates Schwann Cell Behavior During Peripheral Nerve Regeneration.
Article in Molecular neurobiology, 2023. 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
Nerve injury-induced Schwann cell dedifferentiation helps to construct a favorable microenvironment for axon growth. Transcription factors regulate cell reprogramming and thus may be critical for Schwann cell phenotype switch during peripheral nerve regeneration. Here, we show that transcription factor B-cell lymphoma/leukemia 11A (BCL11A) is up-regulated in Schwann cells of injured peripheral nerves. Bcl11a silencing suppresses Schwann cell viability, decreases Schwann cell proliferation and migration rates, and impairs the debris clearance ability of Schwann cells. Reduced Bcl11a in injured peripheral nerves results in restricted axon elongation and myelin wrapping, leading to recovery failure. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that BCL11A may mediate Schwann cell activity through binding to the promoter of nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group F member 2 (Nr2f2) and regulating Nr2f2 expression. Collectively, we conclude that BCL11A is essential for Schwann cell activation and peripheral nerve regeneration, providing a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of peripheral nerve injury.
