Epithelial-mesenchymal cell competition coordinates fate transitions across tissue compartments during lung development and fibrosis.
Article in Research square, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Morphogenesis and cell state transitions must be coordinated in time and space to produce a functional tissue. In this study, we reveal that lung mesenchymal Yap levels and fitness antagonize epithelial Yap levels and stemness during lung development and repair following bleomycin injury. Elevated mesenchymal Yap signaling and fitness antagonize epithelial Yap levels and stemness, accelerating alveolar epithelial differentiation while impairing branching during lung development or bronchiolization after bleomycin injury. Conversely, mesenchymal Snail/Slug sequesters Yap/Taz to direct an adipogenic differentiation program towards alveolar fibroblast 1 (AF1) during both lung development and the resolution of pulmonary fibrosis. On the other hand, Yap/Myc-Tead binding instructs a myogenic differentiation program. Through our experiments and modeling, we identify tissue-scale mechanical cooperation as a pivotal factor in orchestrating organ formation and regeneration.
