The Effect of Valine on the Synthesis of α-Casein in MAC-T Cells and the Expression and Phosphorylation of Genes Related to the mTOR Signaling Pathway.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
This study utilized MAC-T cells cultured in vitro as a model to investigate the effects of varying concentrations of valine on α-casein synthesis and its underlying regulatory mechanisms. In this experiment, MAC-T cells were subjected to a 12 h starvation period, followed by the addition of valine in a range of concentrations (a total of seven concentrations: 0.000, 1.596, 3.192, 6.384, 12.768, 25.536, and 51.072 mM, as well as in 10% Fetal Bovine Serum). The suitable range of valine concentrations was determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and Western blot analyses were employed to evaluate the expression levels and phosphorylation states of the casein alpha s1 gene (
