Comprehensive Transcriptome Profiling of Antioxidant Activities by Glutathione in Human HepG2 Cells.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Glutathione (GSH) has long been recognised for its antioxidant and detoxifying effects on the liver. The hepatoprotective effect of GSH involves the activation of antioxidative systems such as NRF2; however, details of the mechanisms remain limited. A comparative analysis of the biological events regulated by GSH under physiological and oxidative stress conditions has also not been reported. In this study, DNA microarray analysis was performed with four experiment arms including Control, GSH, hydrogen peroxide (HP), and GSH + HP treatment groups. The GSH-treated group exhibited a significant upregulation of genes clustered in cell proliferation, growth, and differentiation, particularly those related to MAPK, when compared with the Control group. Additionally, liver functions such as alcohol and cholesterol metabolic processes were significantly upregulated. On the other hand, in the HP-induced oxidative stress condition, GSH (GSH + HP group) demonstrated a significant activation of cell proliferation, cell cycle, and various signalling pathways (including TGFβ, MAPK, PI3K/AKT, and HIF-1) in comparison to the HP group. Furthermore, several disease-related pathways, such as chemical carcinogenesis-reactive oxygen species and fibrosis, were significantly downregulated in the GSH + HP group compared to the HP group. Collectively, our study provides a comprehensive analysis of the effects of GSH under both physiological and oxidative stress conditions. Our study provides essential insights to direct the utilisation of GSH as a supplement in the management of conditions associated with oxidative stress.
