Transcriptomic Analysis of MGF360-4L Mediated Regulation in African Swine Fever Virus-Infected Porcine Alveolar Macrophages.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 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
African swine fever (ASF) is a highly contagious and virulent infectious disease caused by the African swine fever virus (ASFV), with mortality rates approaching 100% in domestic pigs. The global spread of ASF has caused enormous losses to the swine industry and species diversity, seriously affecting food safety in China. ASFV mainly infects the mononuclear system, inducing significant alterations in host-cell gene expression. Multigene family 360 (MGF360) genes play crucial roles in ASFV infection. To investigate the function of MGF360-4L, this study employed high-throughput RNA sequencing to analyze dynamic transcriptomic changes in porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs) infected with wild-type ASFV (ASFV-WT) or MGF360-4L deletion mutant (ASFVΔMGF360-4L). Results demonstrated that both viruses activated host innate immune responses during early infection, significantly upregulating immune-related genes. At 16 h post-infection, differentially expressed genes in ASFV-WT- and ASFVΔMGF360-4L-infected cells were enriched in aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis pathways, suggesting a potential involvement of MGF360-4L in this process. This study elucidates novel ASFV-host interactions using transcriptomics, providing data to support ASF control strategies.
