Exosomal novel-miRNA-126 mediates vascular endothelial dysfunction by targeting AhR-NLRP3 pathway in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is an increasingly prevalent liver disease associated with obesity and its complications. Recent studies have underscored a significant correlation between NASH and an elevated risk of cardiovascular diseases. However, the precise mechanisms of inter-organ communication between the liver and vascular endothelium are not fully understood. In this study, we established a NASH mouse model using a methionine-choline-deficient diet to investigate the role of liver-derived exosomes in modulating vascular endothelial dysfunction during NASH progression. Utilizing both in vivo and in vitro experimental approaches, we observed vascular dysfunction and activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in NASH mice. Further analyses identified exosomal novel-miRNA-126 as a critical mediator influencing vascular endothelial dysfunction. This miRNA augments NLRP3 transcription and accelerates NLRP3 inflammasome activation by targeting the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). These findings offer novel insights into the mechanisms of liver-to-vascular communication and suggest new avenues for the prevention and therapeutic intervention of cardiovascular complications in NASH patients.
