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

Ex vivo activation is a prerequisite to reaching adequate levels of gene editing by homology-directed repair (HDR) for hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC)-based clinical applications. Here, we show that shortening culture time mitigates the p53-mediated DNA damage response to CRISPR-Cas9-induced DNA double-strand breaks, enhancing the reconstitution capacity of edited HSPCs. However, this results in lower HDR efficiency, rendering ex vivo culture necessary yet detrimental. Mechanistically, ex vivo activation triggers a multi-step process initiated by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation, which generates mitogenic reactive oxygen species (ROS), promoting fast cell-cycle progression and subsequent proliferation-induced DNA damage. Thus, p38 inhibition before gene editing delays G1/S transition and expands transcriptionally defined HSCs, ultimately endowing edited cells with superior multi-lineage differentiation, persistence throughout serial transplantation, enhanced polyclonal repertoire, and better-preserved genome integrity. Our data identify proliferative stress as a driver of HSPC dysfunction with fundamental implications for designing more effective and safer gene correction strategies for clinical applications.
