The deubiquitylating enzyme Fat facets promotes Fat signalling and restricts tissue growth.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Tissue growth is regulated by many signals, including polarity cues. The Hippo signalling pathway restricts tissue growth and receives inputs from the planar cell polarity-controlling Fat signalling pathway. The atypical cadherin Fat restricts growth via several mechanisms that ultimately control the activity of the pro-growth transcriptional co-activator Yorkie. Fat signalling activates the Yorkie inhibitory kinase Warts, and modulates the function of the FERM protein Expanded, which promotes Hippo signalling and also directly inhibits Yorkie. Although several Fat pathway activity modulators are known to be involved in ubiquitylation, the role of this post-translational modification in the pathway remains unclear. Moreover, no deubiquitylating enzymes have been described in this pathway. Here, using in vivo RNAi screening, we identify the deubiquitylating enzyme Fat facets as a positive regulator of Fat signalling with roles in tissue growth control. Fat facets interacts genetically and physically with Fat signalling components and regulates Yorkie target gene expression. Thus, we uncover a role for reversible ubiquitylation in the control of Fat signalling and tissue growth regulation.
