In Vitro Study of TLR4-NLRP3-Inflammasome Activation in Innate Immune Response.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are pivotal players in mediating immune responses. TLR4 is the main receptor for LPS, a strong activator of immune cells. LPS/TLR4-dependent pathway, by inducing NF-κB activation, is responsible for the release of several mediators, including IL-1β, one of the most powerful cytokines deeply involved in inflammatory and immune responses. The same pathway is also involved in NLRP3-inflammasome activation, essential for IL-1β maturation. NLRP3 is a major component of innate immune responses, being a crucial player of host immune defense against virus, bacterial, or fungal infections. NLRP3-inflammasome and IL-1β hyperactivation have been associated to the pathogenesis of a wide range of disorders and represent therapeutic targets for the development of new treatments of inflammasome-driven inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.Here, we describe an in vitro protocol to induce LPS/TLR4-dependent NLRP3-inflammasome/IL-1β activation in immune cells, in order to provide a useful assay to study the efficacy of different anti-inflammatory/immune-modulatory agents.
