High-content image-based pooled screens reveal regulators of synaptogenesis.
Article in Cell reports, 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
Synapse formation is a fundamental process that shapes the connectivity and function of the nervous system, but the mechanisms regulating synaptogenesis are incompletely understood. Moreover, the interplay of these mechanisms at distinct synapse types remains to be defined. Using a scalable optical pooled screening platform, we investigated the process of synapse induction to uncover modulators of a prototypical synapse-organizing adhesion molecule, neuroligin-1. Analysis of over two million single-cell phenotypic profiles identified 102 candidate regulators of neuroligin-1 that are linked to cell adhesion, cytoskeletal dynamics, and signaling. Among these, we show that the phosphatase PTEN and the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein DAG1 promote neuroligin's roles in inducing presynaptic assembly, with DAG1 selectively regulating inhibitory synapses. This work establishes a scalable high-content screening approach for cell-cell interactions that enables systematic studies of the molecular interactions guiding synaptogenesis.
