MARCH1 Deletion Attenuates HFpEF by Promoting Adipose Beiging.
Article in Comprehensive Physiology, 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
backgroundMembrane-associated RING-CH1 (MARCH1) is a critical membrane-bound RING domain E3 ubiquitin ligase that primarily regulates immune cell development, immune responses, antigen presentation modulation, and metabolic functions. Its role in the pathogenesis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains elusive. This study aimed to investigate the function of MARCH1 in HFpEF.
methodsMulti-hit (high fat/sugar diet together with deoxycorticosterone acetate and angiotensin II injection) HFpEF mouse model was established in C57BL/6 wild-type mice and MARCH1 KO mice. Non-HFpEF control mice received standard diet. Comprehensive evaluation was carried out through echocardiography, histological and biochemical studies. White adipose tissue (WAT) beiging was analyzed in isolated stromal vascular fraction cells. The relevant molecular mechanisms were determined through RNA sequencing and co-immunoprecipitation assay.
resultsCardiometabolic dysregulation with hypertension and obesity was observed in WT HFpEF mice. Significantly reduced running distance and running time were found in HFpEF mice compared to the WT control mice (both p < 0.05). Histologic and echocardiographic examinations also visualized cardiac fibrosis, left ventricular hypertrophy, and diastolic dysfunction in HFpEF mice. MARCH1 expression was significantly upregulated in the WAT of HFpEF mice. MARCH1 deficiency alleviated cardiac dysfunction of HFpEF mice and induced WAT beiging following HFpEF. Mechanistically, MARCH1 contributes to HFpEF by direct binding to Krüppel-like factor 15 (KLF15). Overexpressing KLF15 blocked the beiging effects of WAT from MARCH1 KO mice.
conclusionOur study highlights the positive anti-fibrotic and WAT beiging effects of MARCH1 inhibition in the setting of HFpEF. Targeting MARCH1 and KLF15 might serve as novel therapeutic options for HFpEF.
