GLI1+ perivascular, renal, progenitor cells: The likely source of spontaneous neoplasia that created the AGMK1-9T7 cell line.
Article in PloS one, 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
The AGMK1-9T7 cell line has been used to study neoplasia in tissue culture. By passage in cell culture, these cells evolved to become tumorigenic and metastatic in immunodeficient mice at passage 40. Of the 20 x 106 kidney cells originally plated, less than 2% formed the colonies that evolved to create this cell line. These cells could be the progeny of some type of kidney progenitor cells. To characterize these cells, we documented their renal lineage by their expression of PAX-2 and MIOX, detected by indirect immunofluorescence. These cells assessed by flow-cytometry expressed high levels of CD44, CD73, CD105, Sca-1, and GLI1 across all passages tested; these markers have been reported to be expressed by renal progenitor cells. The expression of GLI1 was confirmed by immunofluorescence and western blot analysis. Cells from passages 13 to 23 possessed the ability to differentiate into adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes; after passage 23, their ability to form these cell types was lost. These data indicate that the cells that formed the AGMK1-9T7 cell line were GLI1+ perivascular, kidney, progenitor cells.
