Porcine granulosa cell transcriptomic analyses reveal the differential regulation of lncRNAs and mRNAs in response to all-trans retinoic acid in vitro.

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
objectiveThe active metabolite of vitamin A, all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), is involved in the proliferation and differentiation of granulosa cells, and promotes the follicular development, oocyte maturation, and ovulation in mammals. This study aims to investigate the ATRA induced potential long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that regulate the expression of genes associated with granulosa cell proliferation and follicular development.
methodsThe lncRNA and mRNA profiles of porcine granulosa cells from ATRA treatment and control group in vitro were constructed through RNA sequencing. Meanwhile, the sequencing data were verified using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).
resultsA total of 86 differentially expressed lncRNAs and 128 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected in granulosa cells after ATRA treatment. The quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) results were consistent with the RNA-seq data. Functional annotation analysis revealed that the DEGs were remarkably enriched in ovary function and reproduction which contained FoxO, Hippo, Oocyte meiosis, mammalian target of rapamycin signaling pathway, as well as several pathways associated with hormone regulation like oxytocin signaling pathway and steroid hormone biosynthesis. Moreover, an interaction network of lncRNAs and their cis-target DEGs was constructed, and 7 differentially expressed lncRNAs and 6 cis-target DEGs were enriched in ovarian steroidogenesis and reproduction.
conclusionThese findings expand the lncRNA catalogue and provide a basis for further studies on the mechanism of ATRA-mediated lncRNA regulation of follicular development in pigs.
