Conserved region of human TDP-43 is structurally similar to membrane binding protein FARP1 and protein chaperons BAG6 and CYP33.
Article in microPublication biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Transactive response DNA-binding protein of 43 KDa (TDP-43) is important for RNA metabolism in all animals and in humans is involved in neuromuscular diseases. Full-length TDP-43 is prone to oligomerization and misfolding what renders difficult its characterization. We report that TDP-43 domains are structurally similar to lipid binding protein FARP1 and protein chaperons BAG6 and CYP33. Sequence analysis suggests putative lipid binding sites throughout TDP-43 and in vitro thioflavin T fluorescence assays show that cholesterol and phosphatidylcholine affect fibrillation of recombinant TDP-43 fragments. Our findings suggest that TDP-43 can bind lipids directly and it may contribute to its own chaperoning.
