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

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease and a leading cause of adult disability. Our previous study has reported that mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-Exo) mediated long non-coding RNA KLF3-AS1 improves osteoarthritis. This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanism of KLF3-AS1 in osteoarthritis. Chondrocytes were treated with IL-1β to induce chondrocyte injury, followed by MSC-Exo treatment. We found that MSC-Exo enhanced KLF3-AS1 expression in IL-1β-treated chondrocytes. IL-1β treatment reduced cell viability and enhanced apoptosis in chondrocytes. MSC-Exo-mediated KLF3-AS1 promoted cell viability and repressed apoptosis of IL-1β-treated chondrocytes. Rapamycin (autophagy activator) promoted cell viability and suppressed apoptosis of chondrocytes by activating autophagy. Moreover, KLF3-AS1 interacted with YBX1 in chondrocytes. MSC-Exo-mediated KLF3-AS1 activated PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, which was abrogated by YBX1 silencing. MSC-Exo-mediated KLF3-AS1 repressed autophagy and apoptosis of chondrocytes by activating PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. In conclusion, our data demonstrate that MSC-Exo-mediated KLF3-AS1 inhibits autophagy and apoptosis of IL-1β-treated chondrocyte through PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. KLF3-AS1 activates PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway by targeting YBX1 to improve the progression of osteoarthritis. Thus, this work suggests that MSC-Exo-mediated KLF3-AS1 may be a potential therapeutic target for osteoarthritis.
