RNA-seq analysis of mitochondria-related genes regulated by AMPK in the human trophoblast cell line BeWo.

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
backgroundHow AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling regulates mitochondrial functions and mitophagy in human trophoblast cells remains unclear. This study was designed to investigate potential players mediating the regulation of AMPK on mitochondrial functions and mitophagy by next generation RNA-seq.
methodsWe compared ATP production in protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 1/2 (PRKAA1/2) knockdown (AKD) and control BeWo cells using the Seahorse real-time ATP rate test, then analyzed gene expression profiling by RNA-seq. Differentially expressed genes (DEG) were examined by Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment. Then protein-protein interactions (PPI) among mitochondria related genes were further analyzed using Metascape and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) software.
resultsBoth mitochondrial and glycolytic ATP production in AKD cells were lower than in the control BeWo cells (CT), with a greater reduction of mitochondrial ATP production. A total of 1092 DEGs were identified, with 405 upregulated and 687 downregulated. GO analysis identified 60 genes associated with the term 'mitochondrion' in the cellular component domain. PPI analysis identified three clusters of mitochondria related genes, including aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B10 and B15 (AKR1B10, AKR1B15), alanyl-tRNA synthetase 1 (AARS1), mitochondrial ribosomal protein S6 (MRPS6), mitochondrial calcium uniporter dominant negative subunit beta (MCUB) and dihydrolipoamide branched chain transacylase E2 (DBT).
conclusionsIn summary, this study identified multiple mitochondria related genes regulated by AMPK in BeWo cells, and among them, three clusters of genes may potentially contribute to altered mitochondrial functions in response to reduced AMPK signaling.
