RNA helicase MOV10 suppresses fear memory and dendritic arborization and regulates microtubule dynamics in hippocampal neurons.
Article in BMC biology, 2025. 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
backgroundRNA helicase MOV10 is highly expressed in postnatal brain and associates with FMRP and AGO2, suggesting a role in translation regulation in learning and memory.
resultsWe generated a brain-specific knockout mouse (Mov10 Deletion) with greatly reduced MOV10 expression in cortex and hippocampus. Behavior testing revealed enhanced fear memory, similar to that observed in a mouse with reduced brain microRNA production, supporting MOV10's reported role as an AGO2 cofactor. Cultured hippocampal neurons have elongated distal dendrites, a reported feature of augmin/HAUS over-expression in Drosophila da sensory neurons. In mitotic spindle formation, HAUS is antagonized by the microtubule bundling protein NUMA1. Numa1 mRNA is a MOV10 CLIP target and is among the genes significantly decreased in Mov10 Deletion hippocampus. Restoration of NUMA1 expression and knockdown of HAUS rescued phenotypes of the Mov10 Deletion hippocampal neurons.
conclusionsThis is the first evidence of translation regulation of NUMA1 by MOV10 as a control point in dendritogenesis.
