Melatonin Increased Autophagy Level to Facilitate Osteogenesis of Inflamed PDLSCs Through TMEM110 Signaling Pathways.
Article in Journal of pineal research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) bring new hope to patients with poor periodontium recovery and impaired regeneration. However, the complex inflammatory microenvironment continually inhibits stem cell function and hinders stem cell therapy effectiveness. Melatonin is a naturally occurring neurohormone that participates in the regulation of a large spectrum of biological functions. We investigated the effect of melatonin on periodontium regeneration both in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that melatonin promoted periodontitis recovery and enhanced the osteogenesis of inflamed PDLSCs (Inf-PDLSCs) depending on concentrations. Further mechanistic exploration indicated that autophagy activation played a significant role in enhancing the osteogenic differentiation of Inf-PDLSCs after melatonin treatment. Additionally, melatonin-induced upregulation of TEME110 participated in the initiation of autophagy activation and enhancement of osteogenesis in Inf-PDLSCs. Collectively, the results of our study provide evidence that melatonin-mediated osteogenesis of Inf-PDLSCs is important for periodontal tissue regeneration. Moreover, melatonin as a therapeutic drug for periodontitis treatment deserves further investigation.
