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

Nemadectin, a milbemycin-class macrocyclic lactone antibiotic produced by Streptomyces cyaneogriseus, is a potent broad-spectrum insecticide with excellent environmental compatibility. Its derivative moxidectin, featuring a C-23 methoxime modification, demonstrates enhanced insecticidal activity and has become a commercially successful agrochemical. This study reveals ammonium regulation effectively boosts nemadectin biosynthesis in S. cyaneogriseus, with mechanistic insights gained through integrated multi-omics analysis. Transcriptomic profiling showed ammonium sulfate supplementation significantly upregulates the nemadectin biosynthetic gene cluster, including polyketide synthase (PKS) genes, backbone modification genes, and pathway-specific transcription factors, while also enhancing the expression of Avenolide-like signaling molecules and global transcription factor Afskne. Metabolomic dynamics revealed reinforced precursor biosynthesis through coordinated metabolic reprogramming: enhanced acetyl-CoA production, reinforced Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway and amino acid/acyl-CoA metabolism, coupled with reduced tricarboxylic acid cycle activity. Systematic integration of physiological phenotyping, metabolite profiling, and transcriptional regulation data comprehensively elucidated the ammonium-driven overproduction mechanism, providing critical insights for developing advanced fermentation strategies and genetic engineering approaches in industrial antibiotic production.
