TMAO Promotes NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation of Microglia Aggravating Neurological Injury in Ischemic Stroke Through FTO/IGF2BP2.
Article in Journal of inflammation research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 45 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
Objective: Stroke is a kind of cerebrovascular disease with high mortality. TMAO has been shown to aggravate stroke outcomes, but its mechanism remains unclear. Materials and Methods: Mice were fed with 0.12% TMAO for 16 weeks. Then, mice were made into MCAO/R models. Neurological score, infarct volume, neuronal damage and markers associated with inflammation were assessed. Since microglia played a crucial role in ischemic stroke, microglia of MCAO/R mice were isolated for high-throughput sequencing to identify the most differentially expressed gene following TMAO treatment. Afterward, the downstream pathways of TMAO were investigated using primary microglia. Results: TMAO promoted the release of inflammatory cytokines in the brain of MCAO/R mice and promoted the activation of OGD/R microglial inflammasome, thereby exacerbating ischemic stroke outcomes. FTO/IGF2BP2 inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation in OGD/R microglia by downregulating the m6A level of NLRP3. TMAO can inhibit the expression of FTO and IGF2BP2, thus promoting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in OGD/R microglia. In conclusion, these results demonstrated that TMAO promotes NLRP3 inflammasome activation of microglia aggravating neurological injury in ischemic stroke through FTO/IGF2BP2. Conclusion: Our results demonstrated that TMAO promotes NLRP3 inflammasome activation of microglia aggravating neurological injury in ischemic stroke through FTO/IGF2BP2. These findings explained the molecular mechanism of TMAO aggravating ischemic stroke in detail and provided molecular mechanism for clinical treatment.
