H2AK119ub dynamics controls hair follicle stem cell quiescence.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The transition of stem cells from a quiescent state to an active state is a finely tuned process that requires the dismantling of the quiescence program and the establishment of a cell cycle-promoting transcriptional landscape. Whether epigenetic processes control stem cell states to promote the regeneration of adult tissues remains elusive. In this study, we show that a repressive histone modification, H2AK119ub, is dynamic between quiescent and active hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) in the adult murine skin. Ablation of H2AK119ub in HFSCs leads to impaired quiescence leading to premature activation and an eventual exhaustion of HFSC pool. Transcriptional and chromatin studies revealed that H2AK119ub directly represses a proliferation promoting transcriptional program in the HFSCs to preserve quiescence. Lastly, we identify that the inhibitory FGF signaling produced by the hair follicle niche keratinocytes maintains H2AK119ub in quiescent HFSCs. Together, these findings reveal that a repressive histone mark, H2AK119ub, is under the dynamic regulation of inhibitory niche signaling to prevent the untimely establishment of an activated state to preserve SC function and longevity.
