UVRAG: orchestrating the initiation of reticulophagy.
Article in Autophagy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Reticulophagy is a selective autophagy of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) mediated by cargo receptors. It plays a crucial role in ER quality control, yet the mechanisms that initiate reticulophagy remain poorly understood. Our study identified the multifunctional protein UVRAG (UV radiation resistance associated gene) as a novel regulator of reticulophagy. UVRAG interacts with sheet and tubular reticulophagy receptors, regulates the oligomerization of receptors and facilitates their interaction with LC3/GABARAP, critical for ER fragmentation and autophagosome targeting. Remarkably, we found that UVRAG's function in reticulophagy initiation is independent of its traditional role in macroautophagy. Furthermore, UVRAG enhances the degradation of ER-associated mutant proteins linked to diseases like diabetes. Our findings offer insights into the mechanisms of reticulophagy initiation and highlight UVRAG's therapeutic potential in ER-related diseases.
