Endothelial identity not found - Beyond passage 38, commercial cardiac microvascular endothelial cells do not express CD31 and VE-cadherin.
Article in Journal of molecular and cellular cardiology plus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Few immortalized cardiac microvascular endothelial cell (CMEC) lines are available, particularly mouse lines. We purchased the CLU510 mCMEC line (Cedarlane), isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting for CD31 and VE-cadherin. The cell line has been used in previous studies, although none report CD31 or VE-cadherin expression. We analyzed endothelial profile of two vials of passage 38 cells. CD31 and VE-cadherin mRNA were hardly expressed in mCMECs compared to primary mouse lung ECs. CD31 and VE-cadherin protein levels were also negligible compared to multiple EC lines. Thus, CLU510 mCMECs beyond P38 do not harbor an endothelial phenotype. Caution should be warranted when using commercial cells and journals should carefully consider the validity of results when essential characterization of cell lines is omitted.
