Oxysterols Suppress Release of DNA from Granulocytes into Extracellular Space After Stimulation with Phorbol Myristate Acetate.
Article in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundNeutrophils eject their DNA strings and cellular proteins into the extracellular space upon treatment with various stimulants. In the present study, we examined the effects of four major oxidized cholesterol metabolites on DNA release from granulocytes. METHODS AND
resultsWhen oxysterols were added to HL-60-derived granulocytes stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), they suppressed the release of DNA and myeloperoxidase from the cells. Among the four oxysterols tested, 7-ketocholesterol was the most effective. Addition of the same concentration of 7-ketocholesterol did not induce any cytotoxic effects, as evaluated based on the release of lactate dehydrogenase and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazoliumbromide (MTT) assays. DNA release from human peripheral blood neutrophils after PMA stimulation was also suppressed by 7-ketocholesterol. Liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis was used to quantify sterol content in the cells. The addition of oxysterols increased the cellular content of the corresponding compounds by more than 10-fold compared to those at baseline. Treatment of HL-60-derived granulocytes with methyl-β-cyclodextrin that removes sterol compounds from the membranes increased DNA release from the cells in a dose-dependent manner.
conclusionsThese results suggest that oxysterols have suppressive effects on DNA release from granulocytes stimulated with PMA.
