NLRP7 maintains the genomic stability during early human embryogenesis via mediating alternative splicing.
Article in Communications biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Genomic instability is the main cause of abnormal embryo development and abortion. NLRP7 dysfunctions affect embryonic development and lead to Hydatidiform Moles, but the underlying mechanisms remain largely elusive. Here, we show that NLRP7 knockout affects the genetic stability, resulting in increased DNA damage in both human embryonic stem cells and blastoids, making embryonic cells in blastoids more susceptible to apoptosis. Mechanistically, NLRP7 can interact with factors related to alternative splicing and DNA damage response, including DDX39B, PRPF8, THRAP3 and PARP1. Moreover, NLRP7 dysfunction leads to abnormal alternative splicing of genes involved in homologous recombination in human embryonic stem cells, Such as Brca1 and Rad51. These results indicate that NLRP7-mediated Alternative splicing is potentially required for the maintenance of genome integrity during early human embryogenesis. Together, this study uncovers that NLRP7 plays an essential role in the maintenance of genetic stability during early human embryonic development by regulating alternative splicing of homologous recombination-related genes.
