Fasting Increases Iron Export by Modulating Ferroportin 1 Expression Through the Ghrelin/GHSR1α/MAPK Pathway in the Liver.

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
The liver is contributed to maintaining body iron homeostasis and controlling of body adaptation to fasting. Although previous studies implied a negative relationship between iron and ghrelin in both mice and humans, it remains to be explored whether fasting or ghrelin has a functional effect on iron homeostasis in the liver. In this study, we examined the roles of fasting and ghrelin in modulating the protein expression of Fpn1, transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1), and ferritin light chain (Ft-L), as well as the mRNA expression of ghrelin, hepcidin, ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT), and growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1 alpha (GHSR1α) in mouse liver and cultured hepatocytes. Our in vivo results suggested that fasting significantly upregulated the mRNA expression of ghrelin, GOAT, and GHSR1α, as well as the protein levels of ghrelin, Fpn1, and Ft-L, but not TfR1, in mouse liver. Interestingly, mRNA expression of hepcidin did not change significantly after fasting. Meanwhile, in cultured hepatocytes, ghrelin significantly increased the protein expression of Fpn1 but not Ft-L and TfR1 and significantly enhanced ERK phosphorylation. Furthermore, the pretreatment of cultured hepatocytes with either a pERK inhibitor or a GHSR1α antagonist abolished the effects of ghrelin on Fpn1 expression and ERK phosphorylation. Our findings confirmed that fasting increases iron export in the liver by upregulating Fpn1 expression through the ghrelin/GHSR1α/MAPK signaling pathway.
