Transcriptomic Changes in Human Tonsil-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Across Culture Passages.
Article in Genes, 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesTonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells (TMSCs) are in the limelight in regenerative medicine due to their high proliferation and differentiation potential. It is important to conduct studies to determine the optimal conditions for achieving the maximum yield while maintaining the optimal differentiation capacity of TMSCs.
methodsThis study explores the impact of serial subculture on TMSCs by analyzing gene expression at passages 2, 4, 6, and 8. For each culture passage, genes with significant differences in RNA expression from previous passages were selected and their characteristics were observed performing enrichment analysis including KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) and Reactome pathway.
resultsAt each passage, a "cell cycle" term was ranked high with statistical significance in the KEGG and Reactome pathway. Cell cycle gene expression, including Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and cyclins, increased until passage 6, then decreased by passage 8. The cell cycle is known to be important not only for proliferation but also for determining whether stem cells maintain pluripotency or differentiate into various lineages.
conclusionsThe results suggest that cell cycle gene expression can guide the timing for differentiation induction, with passage 6 potentially being a critical point for initiating differentiation.
