Study of the effect of keap1 on oxidative stress in human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2024. 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
backgroundHucMSCs had shown promising efficacy in treating childhood diseases, but oxidative stress induced by the poor microenvironment at the site of damage resulted in low cell survival after transplantation, thus preventing the cells from maximizing therapeutic efficacy. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of keap1 in oxidative stress injury of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hucMSCs), and to provide theoretical support for improving the efficacy of stem cell therapy.
methodsThe hucMSCs were treated with hypoxic low-sugar-free serum (GSDH) to mimic the damaged site microenvironment after implantation. Adenoviral overexpression of keap1 gene of hucMSCs was performed in vitro, and cell proliferation ability was detected by CCK8 assay, crystal violet staining assay, and cell cycle assay. Cellular redox level was assessed by Amplex Red, MDA, and GSH/GSSG kit. Mitochondrial morphology was evaluated by mitotracker Red staining. ATP production was estimated by ATP detection kit. The mRNA and protein expression levels were tested by western blotting and RT-qPCR.
resultsGSDH treatment substantially upregulated keap1 expression. Subsequently, we found that overexpression of keap1 notably inhibited cell proliferation and caused cells to stagnate in G1 phase. At the same time, overexpression of keap1 induced the production of large amounts of H
conclusionsOverexpression of keap1 may induce oxidative stress injury in hucMSCs by down-regulating IKKβ expression and inhibiting NF-κB pathway activation. This implies the importance of keap1 in hucMSCs and it may be a potential gene for genetic modification of hucMSCs.
