circRNA-ZCCHC14 affects the chondrogenic differentiation ability of peripheral blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells by regulating GREM1 through miR-181a.

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
circRNAs play an important role in the progression of osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore, we aimed to reveal the mechanism of action of circRNA-ZCCHC14 in OA. OA animal and cell models were constructed, and clinical samples were collected. The expression of circRNA-ZCCHC14 and miR-181a was detected by RT‒qPCR. The chondrogenic differentiation ability of peripheral blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (PBMSCs) was detected by Alcian blue staining. The expression of chondrogenic differentiation-related proteins was detected by Western blotting. Double fluorescein experiments verified the targeting relationship of miR-181a with circRNA-ZCCHC14 and GREM1. Upregulation of circRNA-ZCCHC14 was observed in blood, in BMP-2- and TGF-β3-treated PBMSCs from OA patients and in animal models. Knockdown of circRNA-ZCCHC14 promoted the chondrogenic differentiation ability of PBMSCs. circRNA-ZCCHC14 was found to bind to miR-181a and negatively regulate miR-181a expression. Inhibition of miR-181a reversed the promoting effect of circRNA-ZCCHC14 knockdown on the chondrogenic differentiation ability of PBMSCs. GREM1 was identified as a target of miR-181a. Overexpression and knockdown of GREM1 regulated the expression of BMP2, which in turn affected the chondrogenic differentiation ability of PBMSCs, indicating that GREM1 and BMP2 have antagonistic effects and that they jointly regulate the chondrogenic differentiation of PBMSCs. circRNA-ZCCHC14 may promote the chondrogenic differentiation ability of PBMSCs by regulating miR-181a and inhibiting the expression of GREM1.
