1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Mitochondrial unfolded protein response (mtUPR) plays an essential role in the response of mitochondria to stress-induced damage. Activating of transcription factor 5 (ATF5) can help to sustain mitochondrial function and regulate organelle recovery under mitochondrial stress. Vitrification is a stressor that disrupts mitochondrial activity and cell homeostasis. However, little is known about the function of ATF5 in response to the extreme biophysical and chemical stresses during oocyte vitrification. Methods: The expression of ATF5 and mtUPR biomarkers were measured in fresh and vitrified oocytes. Subsequently, oocytes with ATF5 deficiency were constructed by siRNA microinjection, and the function of ATF5 in mitochondrial function and oocyte development were analyzed in vitrified oocytes. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis was performed to uncover the molecular network regulated by ATF5 in response to oocyte vitrification. Results: In the present study, the mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP levels were decreased in ATF5 knockdown oocytes, in line with the phenotypes observed in vitrified oocytes. In addition, ATF5 knockdown resulted in decreased mitochondrial temperature, reduced unfolded protein levels, abnormal mitochondrial dynamics (fusion and fission), and increased autophagy. Subsequent experiments indicated that mtUPR was suppressed in oocytes with ATF5 knockdown. Interestingly, ATF5 was aberrantly upregulated in oocytes exposed to vitrification stress. Reduced ATF5 expression to a homeostatic level in vitrified oocytes led to accumulated unfolded protein levels and increased mitochondrial membrane potential. Moreover, increased mitochondrial dynamics and an increased germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) rate were detected after Discussion: Our findings indicate that mtUPR was initiated in response to vitrification stimuli, and downregulated ATF5 level to a homeostatic state contributes to improved mitochondrial function in oocytes exposed to vitrification stress. Our results highlight the crucial role of ATF5 in the regulation of mitochondrial function in vitrified oocytes through mediating mtUPR.
