TPST2-mediated tyrosine sulfation orchestrates porcine preimplantation development.
Article in BMC biology, 2026. 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
backgroundTyrosine sulfation is a widespread posttranslational modification in mammals and is known to influence protein function and signaling. However, its functional significance during porcine preimplantation development remains poorly understood.
resultsIn this study, we demonstrate that TPST2-mediated tyrosine sulfation is critical for early porcine embryonic development. TPST2 is transcriptionally activated during zygotic genome activation by its antisense long noncoding RNA, termed aTPST2, which recruits MED4, a core subunit of the Mediator complex, to activate TPST2 transcription in cis. Mechanistically, TPST2 mediates sulfation at tyrosine 39 (Y39) of TTYH3, enhancing its protein stability. The stabilized TTYH3 interacts with RAP1B to activate MAPK signaling, thereby ensuring proper embryonic development.
conclusionsOur findings elucidate a compelling molecular mechanism by which tyrosine sulfation orchestrates porcine preimplantation development. Together, these results provide new insights into the developmental functions of tyrosine sulfation.
