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

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are widely utilised in the biopharmaceutical industry to produce therapeutic proteins. Understanding the mechanisms of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and its interplay with protein degradation pathways remains pivotal for improving production efficiency and product quality. In this study, we investigated the proteomic responses of CHO-K1 (non-producer), CHO DP-12 (IgG-producer), and NISTCHO (IgG-producer) cell lines under ER stress induced by a combination of the proteasome inhibitor MG132 and the glycosylation inhibitor tunicamycin. Viability, cell growth, and IgG titre were measured after 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h of treatment and the 48 h timepoint was used for the comparative analysis of the proteomic data across the three cell lines. Proteasome inhibition with MG132 intensified ER stress and altered ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD). Combined tunicamycin + MG132 treatment was associated with cell line-specific proteomic changes: NISTCHO upregulated ER translocation and glycoprotein quality control proteins (SSR4, SEC24C, UGGT1), CHO DP-12 activated redox/disulfide regulators (DNAJC10, CAPN1), while CHO-K1 showed broad proteome shifts, suggesting differences in baseline stress handling. These findings provide mechanistic insights into ER stress and protein quality control in CHO cells, offering a foundation for strategies to enhance cell line robustness and optimise biopharmaceutical production.
