Transcriptional Regulation and Function of Malic Enzyme 1 in Human Macrophage Activation.
Article in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Macrophages represent primary players of the innate immune system. Macrophage activation triggers several signaling pathways and is tightly associated with metabolic changes, which drive different immune subsets. Recent studies unveil the role of various metabolic enzymes in macrophage activation. Here, we show that malic enzyme 1 (ME1) is overexpressed in LPS-induced macrophages. Through chromatin immunoprecipitation, we demonstrate that ME1 transcriptional regulation is under control of NF-κB. Furthermore, ME1 activity is also increased in activated human PBMC-derived macrophages. Notably, ME1 gene silencing decreases nitric oxide as well as reactive oxygen species and prostaglandin E2 inflammatory mediators. Therefore, modulating ME1 provides a potential approach for immunometabolic regulation and in turn macrophage function.
