1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Peroxisomes carry out a diverse set of metabolic functions, including oxidation of very long-chain fatty acids, degradation of D-amino acids and hydrogen peroxide, and bile acid production. Many of these functions are upregulated on demand; therefore, cells control peroxisome abundance, and by extension peroxisome function, in response to environmental and developmental cues. The mechanisms upregulating peroxisomes in mammalian cells have remained unclear. Here, we identify a signaling regulatory network that coordinates cellular demand for peroxisomes and peroxisome abundance by regulating peroxisome proliferation and interaction with ER. We show that PKC promotes peroxisome PEX11b-dependent formation. PKC activation leads to an increase in peroxisome-ER contact site formation through inactivation of GSK3β. We show that removal of VAPA and VAPB impairs peroxisome biogenesis and PKC regulation. During neuronal differentiation, active PKC leads to a significant increase in peroxisome formation. We propose that peroxisomal regulation by transient PKC activation enables fine-tuned responses to the need for peroxisomal activity.
