Effect of four traditional Chinese medicine monomers on mechanical barrier damage and inflammation response of IPEC-J2 cells caused by soybean 7S globulin.

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
Introduction: The soybean 7S globulin is a major allergen responsible for diarrhea in weaned piglets, leading to significant economic loss in the pig breeding industry. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find effective and safe therapeutic agents to prevent and treat diarrhea caused by soybean 7S globulin. Given the global trend toward "antibiotic alternatives," traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) offer a promising approach for the prevention and control of animal diseases. Methods: In this study, four TCM monomers (curcumin, eleutheroside E, saponin B4, and forsythia A) were evaluated for their protective and therapeutic effects on intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) damaged by soybean 7S globulin. The CCK8 assay, western blot assay, Elisa assay, and PCR assay were used in this study. Results: The results demonstrated that curcumin at concentrations of 0.02, 0.04, and 0.08 μg/mL, eleutheroside E at 25, and 50 μg/mL, saponin B4 at 12.5, 25, and 50 μg/mL, and forsythia A at 20, and 40 μg/mL had significant ameliorative effects on cell viability, permeability, and integrity. Furthermore, the TCM monomers alleviated the inflammatory response, reduced the disruption of tight junctions, and improved the cellular mechanical barrier. These protective effects were likely mediated through the inhibition of the Rho/ROCK signaling pathway, characterized by down regulation of RhoA, ROCK1, ROCK2, and MLKC expression. Discussion: These findings suggest that the four TCM monomers have the potential to treat diarrhea of weaned piglets caused by soybean protein.
