Transcriptomic Characterization of the Porcine Urinary Bladder Trigone Following Intravesical Administration of Resiniferatoxin: Insights from High-Throughput Sequencing.

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
Resiniferatoxin (RTX), a potent capsaicin analog, is being investigated as a therapeutic agent for neurogenic conditions, particularly those affecting bladder control. However, the transcriptomic effects of RTX on the urinary bladder remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to characterize the transcriptomic changes in the porcine urinary bladder trigone region removed seven days post-treatment with intravesical RTX administration (500 nmol per animal in 60 mL of 5% aqueous solution of ethyl alcohol). High-throughput sequencing identified 126 differentially expressed genes (DEGs; 66 downregulated, 60 upregulated), 5 differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (DELs), and 22 other RNAs, collectively involved in 175 gene ontology (GO) processes. Additionally, differential alternative splicing events (DASes) and single nucleotide variants (SNVs) were detected. RTX significantly modulated signaling pathways related to nerve growth and myelination. Changes in genes associated with synaptic plasticity and neuromodulation were observed, particularly within serotoninergic and cholinergic signaling. RTX altered the expression of immune-related genes, particularly those involved in chemokine signaling and immune regulation. Notably, altered gene expression patterns suggest a potential anti-cancer role for RTX. These findings provide new insights into RTX's therapeutic effects beyond TRPV1 receptor interactions, filling a critical gap in our understanding of its molecular impact on bladder tissue.
