Pharmacological inactivation of a non-canonical gp130 signaling arm attenuates chronic systemic inflammation and multimorbidity induced by a high-fat diet.

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
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a major pro-inflammatory cytokine that demonstrates a robust correlation with age and body mass index (BMI) as part of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype. IL-6 cytokines also play a crucial role in metabolic homeostasis and regenerative processes primarily via the canonical STAT3 pathway. Thus, selective modulation of IL-6 signaling may offer a unique opportunity for therapeutic interventions. Our recent studies identified a novel non-canonical signaling pathway that involves prolonged activation of SRC family of kinases (SFKs) by IL-6/gp130, where genetic or pharmacological inhibition of this pathway was protective in several acute injury models. This study was designed to assess the effect of a small molecule (R159) that inhibits the non-canonical signaling in a mouse model of multimorbidity induced by chronic inflammation. Aged mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) to exacerbate chronic inflammation and inflammaging-related conditions, and R159 significantly decreased systemic inflammatory responses in adipose tissue and liver. R159 was protective against trabecular bone and articular cartilage loss and markedly prevented neurogenesis decline. Moreover, R159 reduced weight gain induced by HFD and increased physical activity levels. These findings suggest that selective pharmacological inhibition of SFK signaling downstream of IL6/gp130 offers a promising strategy to alleviate systemic chronic inflammation and relevant multimorbidity.
