Mitochondrial microprotein MOCCI controls neuroinflammation by altering glial activation states.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 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
Metabolic regulation and its underlying mechanisms play a critical role in controlling and resolving inflammation in the brain, directly shaping glial cell activation and the central nervous system's response to injury and disease. In our screen for microproteins that modify inflammatory outcomes, we discovered MOCCI (protein product of C15orf48/AA467197) as a significant regulator of gut and lung inflammation. However, its involvement in neuroinflammation is unknown. Here, we show that MOCCI is upregulated in microglia and astrocytes in both the mouse and human brain upon inflammation, and is required for orchestrating proper, complete, and beneficial activation of microglia and astrocytes. Induction of MOCCI triggers the transition of glia into a neuroprotective state and promotes the resolution of inflammation.
