ANGPTL8 induces the aging of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells.
Article in Biogerontology, 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
Hematopoiesis depends on the sustained function of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). However, aging progressively impairs HSPC function, contributing to immunosenescence, hematologic malignancies, and degenerative disorders. Therefore, elucidating the mechanisms underlying HSPC aging is essential for developing strategies to alleviate age-related dysfunction. Here, we identify angiopoietin-like 8 (ANGPTL8), a secreted glycoprotein known for its role in glucose and lipid metabolism, as a novel regulator of HSPC aging. Systemic ANGPTL8 knockout significantly attenuated senescence-associated phenotypes in multiple murine tissues. In vitro and in vivo analyses of proliferation, colony-forming capacity, mitochondrial membrane potential, senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) expression, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, myeloid skewing, and early hematopoietic regeneration further demonstrated that ANGPTL8 promotes HSPC aging. Mechanistically, ANGPTL8 deficiency activated the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, whereas a PI3K activator rescued the senescence effects induced by recombinant ANGPTL8 (rANGPTL8). Furthermore, co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) confirmed that rANGPTL8 directly interacts with the transmembrane receptor PirB. Recombinant PirB (rPirB) reduced the phosphorylation of PI3K/AKT, whereas PirB knockdown effectively blocked the inhibitory effect of rANGPTL8 on PI3K/AKT phosphorylation. Collectively, our findings suggest that ANGPTL8 drives HSPC aging primarily by suppressing the PI3K/AKT pathway via its receptor PirB, providing a new potential target to alleviate the aging of HSPCs.
