Early Atf4 activity drives airway club and goblet cell differentiation.
Article in Life science alliance, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Activating transcription factor 4 (Atf4), which is modulated by the protein kinase RNA-like ER kinase (PERK), is a stress-induced transcription factor responsible for controlling the expression of a wide range of adaptive genes, enabling cells to withstand stressful conditions. However, the impact of the Atf4 signaling pathway on airway regeneration remains poorly understood. In this study, we used mouse airway epithelial cell culture models to investigate the role of PERK/Atf4 in respiratory tract differentiation. Through pharmacological inhibition and silencing of ATF4, we uncovered the crucial involvement of PERK/Atf4 in the differentiation of basal stem cells, leading to a reduction in the number of secretory cells. ChIP-seq analysis revealed direct binding of ATF4 to regulatory elements of genes associated with osteoblast differentiation and secretory cell function. Our findings provide valuable insights into the role of ATF4 in airway epithelial differentiation and its potential involvement in innate immune responses and cellular adaptation to stress.
