1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Lactate, which is synthesized as an end product by lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) from pyruvate during anaerobic glycolysis, has attracted attention for its energy metabolism and oxidant effects. A novel histone modification-mediated gene regulation mechanism termed lactylation by lactate was recently discovered. The present study examined the involvement of histone lactylation in undifferentiated cells that underwent differentiation into osteoblasts. C2C12 cells cultured in medium with a high glucose content (4500 mg/L) showed increases in marker genes (Runx2, Sp7, Tnap) indicating BMP-2-induced osteoblast differentiation and ALP staining activity, as well as histone lactylation as compared to those cultured in medium with a low glucose content (900 mg/L). Furthermore, C2C12 cells stimulated with the LDH inhibitor oxamate had reduced levels of BMP-2-induced osteoblast differentiation and histone lactylation, while addition of lactate to C2C12 cells cultured in low glucose medium resulted in partial restoration of osteoblast differentiation and histone lactylation. These results indicate that lactate synthesized by LDHA during glucose metabolism is important for osteoblast differentiation of C2C12 cells induced by BMP-2. Additionally, silencing of p300, a possible modifier of histone lactylation, also inhibited osteoblast differentiation and reduced histone lactylation. Together, these findings suggest a role of histone lactylation in promotion of undifferentiated cells to undergo differentiation into osteoblasts.
