Identification of Stable Reference miRNAs for miRNA Expression Analysis in Adult Neurogenesis Across Mouse and Human Tissues.
Article in Cells, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Accurate normalization in miRNA studies requires the use of appropriate endogenous controls, which can vary significantly depending on cell types, treatments, and physiological or pathological conditions. This study aimed to identify suitable endogenous miRNA controls for neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and hippocampal tissues, both of which play crucial roles in neurogenesis. Using small RNA sequencing, we identified the most stable miRNAs in primary mouse NPCs and hippocampal tissues and accessed their stability using NormFinder analysis. Six miRNAs-miR-181d-5p, miR-93-5p, miR-103-3p, let-7d-5p, miR-26a-5p, and miR-125a-5p-demonstrated high stability and were evaluated for their suitability as endogenous controls across multiple experimental conditions. All selected miRNAs exhibited consistent expression in the NE-4C mouse cell line but not in ReNcells, a human cell line. For ReNcells, only miR-186-5p, one of the known reference miRNAs tested for comparison, showed stable expression. Notably, miR-103-3p and let-7d-5p were stably expressed in hippocampal tissues from both mouse and human samples but were absent in human brain pericytes, human brain microvascular endothelial cells, and SVG p12 cells, a human fetal glial cell line. This study is the first to identify optimal reference miRNAs for adult neurogenesis in both mouse and human samples, providing reliable options for miRNA normalization and improving the accuracy and reproducibility of miRNA expression analyses in neurogenesis research.
