Methionine availability influences essential H3K36me3 dynamics during cell differentiation.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Histone modifications are integral to epigenetics through their influence on gene expression and cellular status. While it's established that metabolism, including methionine metabolism, can impact histone methylation, the direct influence of methionine availability on crucial histone marks that determine the epigenomic process remains poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrate that methionine, through its metabolic product, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), dynamically regulates H3K36me3, a cancer-associated histone modification known to influence cellular status, and myogenic differentiation of mouse myoblast cells. We further demonstrate that the methionine-dependent effects on differentiation are mediated in part through the histone methyltransferase SETD2. Methionine restriction leads to preferential decreases in H3K36me3 abundance and genome accessibility of genes involved in myogenic differentiation. Importantly, the effects of methionine restriction on differentiation and chromatin accessibility can be phenocopied by the deletion of Setd2. Collectively, this study demonstrates that methionine metabolism through its ability to be sensed by chromatin modifying enzymes can have a direct role in influencing cell fate determination.
