Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Promotes Survival of Hematopoietic Progenitors Ex Vivo and Is Post-Translationally Regulated by DPP4.
Article in Stem cells (Dayton, Ohio), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Hematopoietic cells are regulated in part by extracellular cues from cytokines. Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) promotes survival, self-renewal, and pluripotency of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC). While genetic deletion of LIF affects hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs), the direct effect of LIF protein exposure on HPC survival is not known. Furthermore, post-translational modifications (PTM) of LIF and their effects on its function have not been evaluated. We demonstrate that treatment with recombinant LIF preserves mouse and human HPC numbers in stressed conditions when growth factor addition is delayed ex vivo. We show that Lif is upregulated in response to irradiation-induced stress. We reveal novel PTM of LIF where it is cleaved twice by dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) protease so that it loses its 4 N-terminal amino acids. This truncation of LIF down-modulates LIF's ability to preserve functional HPC numbers ex vivo following delayed growth factor addition. DPP4-truncated LIF blocks the ability of full-length LIF to preserve functional HPC numbers. This LIF role and its novel regulation by DPP4 have important implications for normal and stress hematopoiesis, as well as for other cellular contexts in which LIF and DPP4 are implicated.
