The clues offered by SNAREs on the vacuoles of plants and animals.
Review in Frontiers in plant science, 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
Vacuoles and lysosome-related organelles (LROs) are essential compartments in eukaryotic cells playing crucial roles in storage, degradation, signaling, and homeostasis. Despite their functional similarities, these organelles have traditionally been studied in isolation within plant and animal cell biology. This review bridges these disciplines by exploring the molecular parallels between plant vacuoles and animal LROs, with a particular emphasis on the SNARE (Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor Attachment Protein Receptor) protein family, which governs membrane fusion and trafficking. SNARE complexes orchestrate intracellular transport ensuring the correct delivery of cargo to vacuoles and LROs. By analyzing SNARE homologs and their interactions across kingdoms, we highlight conserved mechanisms that regulate organelle biogenesis, remodeling, and function. This comparative approach not only advances our understanding of cellular compartmentalization but also sheds light on potential applications in biotechnology, stress adaptation, and human disease research. Integrating knowledge from plant and animal systems offers a powerful framework for discovering novel regulatory pathways in membrane trafficking and cellular homeostasis.
