Developing a ceRNA-based lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network to uncover roles in skeletal muscle development.

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
The precise role of lncRNAs in skeletal muscle development and atrophy remain elusive. We conducted a bioinformatic analysis of 26 GEO datasets from mouse studies, encompassing embryonic development, postnatal growth, regeneration, cell proliferation, and differentiation, using R and relevant packages (limma et al.). LncRNA-miRNA relationships were predicted using miRcode and lncBaseV2, with miRNA-mRNA pairs identified via miRcode, miRDB, and Targetscan7. Based on the ceRNA theory, we constructed and visualized the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network using ggalluvial among other R packages. GO, Reactome, KEGG, and GSEA explored interactions in muscle development and regeneration. We identified five candidate lncRNAs (Xist, Gas5, Pvt1, Airn, and Meg3) as potential mediators in these processes and microgravity-induced muscle wasting. Additionally, we created a detailed lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network, including interactions such as lncRNA Xist/miR-126/IRS1, lncRNA Xist/miR-486-5p/GAB2, lncRNA Pvt1/miR-148/RAB34, and lncRNA Gas5/miR-455-5p/SOCS3. Significant signaling pathway changes (PI3K/Akt, MAPK, NF-κB, cell cycle, AMPK, Hippo, and cAMP) were observed during muscle development, regeneration, and atrophy. Despite bioinformatics challenges, our research underscores the significant roles of lncRNAs in muscle protein synthesis, degradation, cell proliferation, differentiation, function, and metabolism under both normal and microgravity conditions. This study offers new insights into the molecular mechanisms governing skeletal muscle development and regeneration.
