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

Mitochondria coordinate with lysosomes to maintain cellular homeomstasis. However, in mitochondrial defect condition, how they communicate is less clear. Here, utilizing dMterf4 RNAi fly model, we find that expression of lysosomal alpha-mannosidase VI (LManVI) is significantly downregulated. Mechanistically, we show that dMterf4 RNAi-triggered mitochondrial defect mediates downregulation of lysosomal LManVI through Med8/Tfb4-E(z)/pho axis, causing impairment of lysosomal function. Reciprocally, downregulation of lysosomal LManVI further decreases many mitochondrial genes expression through downregulation of transcriptional coactivator PGC-1, leading to aggravating the dMterf4 RNAi-mediated mitochondrial defect, suggesting that mitochondrial defect can crosstalk with lysosomes to make mitochondrial status worse in a positive feedback way. Finally, we demarcate that this interaction between mitochondria and lysosomes may be conserved in mammalian cells. Therefore, our findings unveil a communication mechanism between mitochondria and lysosomes in mitochondrial defect case, which provides insights about the treatments of related mitochondrial and lysosomal diseases through modulation of the mitochondria-lysosomes axis.
