Comparison of iPSC-derived human intestinal epithelial cells with Caco-2 cells and human in vivo data after exposure to Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WCFS1.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
To investigate intestinal health and its potential disruptors in vitro, representative models are required. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) more closely resemble the in vivo intestinal tissue than conventional in vitro models like human colonic adenocarcinoma Caco-2 cells. However, the potential of IECs to study immune-related responses upon external stimuli has not been investigated in detail yet. The aim of the current study was to evaluate immune-related effects of IECs by challenging them with a pro-inflammatory cytokine cocktail. Subsequently, the effects of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WCFS1 were investigated in unchallenged and challenged IECs. All exposures were compared to Caco-2 cells and in vivo data where possible. Upon the inflammatory challenge, IECs and Caco-2 cells induced a pro-inflammatory response which was strongest in IECs. Heat-killed L. plantarum exerted the strongest effect on immune parameters in the IEC model, while L. plantarum in the stationary growth phase had most pronounced effects on immune-related gene expression in Caco-2 cells. Unfortunately, comparison to in vivo transcriptomics data showed limited similarities, which could be explained by essential differences in the study setups. Altogether, hiPSC-derived IECs show a high potential as a model to study immune-related responses in the intestinal epithelium in vitro.
