ELMO1 Deficiency Reduces Neutrophil Chemotaxis in Murine Peritonitis.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Peritoneal inflammation remains a major cause of treatment failure in patients with kidney failure who receive peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal inflammation is characterized by an increase in neutrophil infiltration. However, the molecular mechanisms that control neutrophil recruitment in peritonitis are not fully understood. ELMO and DOCK proteins form complexes which function as guanine nucleotide exchange factors to activate the small GTPase Rac to regulate F-actin dynamics during chemotaxis. In the current study, we found that deletion of the Elmo1 gene causes defects in chemotaxis and the adhesion of neutrophils. ELMO1 plays a role in the fMLP-induced activation of Rac1 in parallel with the PI3K and mTORC2 signaling pathways. Importantly, we also reveal that peritoneal inflammation is alleviated in Elmo1 knockout mice in the mouse model of thioglycollate-induced peritonitis. Our results suggest that ELMO1 functions as an evolutionarily conserved regulator for the activation of Rac to control the chemotaxis of neutrophils both in vitro and in vivo. Our results suggest that the targeted inhibition of ELMO1 may pave the way for the design of novel anti-inflammatory therapies for peritonitis.
