PGC-1α regulates the interplay between oxidative stress, senescence and autophagy in the ageing retina important in age-related macular degeneration.
Article in Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
We previously showed that mice with knockout in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PPARGC1A) gene encoding the PGC-1α protein, and nuclear factor erythroid 2 like 2 (NFE2L2) gene, exhibited some features of the age-related macular degeneration (AMD) phenotype. To further explore the mechanism behind the involvement of PGC-1α in AMD pathogenesis we used young (3-month) and old (12-month) mice with knockout in the PPARGC1A gene and age-matched wild-type (WT) animals. An immunohistochemical analysis showed age-dependent different expression of markers of oxidative stress defence, senescence and autophagy in the retinal pigment epithelium of KO animals as compared with their WT counterparts. Multivariate inference testing showed that senescence and autophagy proteins had the greatest impact on the discrimination between KO and WT 3-month animals, but proteins of antioxidant defence also contributed to that discrimination. A bioinformatic analysis showed that PGC-1α might coordinate the interplay between genes encoding proteins involved in antioxidant defence, senescence and autophagy in the ageing retina. These data support importance of PGC-1α in AMD pathogenesis and confirm the utility of mice with PGC-1α knockout as an animal model to study AMD pathogenesis.
