NDR2 is critical for osteoclastogenesis by regulating ULK1-mediated mitophagy.
Article in JCI insight, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Bone homeostasis primarily stems from the balance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts, wherein an augmented number or heightened activity of osteoclasts is a prevalent etiological factor in the development of bone loss. Nuclear Dbf2-related kinase (NDR2), also known as STK38L, is a member of the Hippo family with serine/threonine kinase activity. We unveiled an upregulation of NDR2 expression during osteoclast differentiation. Manipulation of NDR2 levels through knockdown or overexpression facilitated or hindered osteoclast differentiation, respectively, indicating a negative feedback role for NDR2 in the osteoclastogenesis. Myeloid NDR2-dificient mice (Lysm+NDR2fl/fl) showed lower bone mass and further exacerbated ovariectomy-induced or aging-related bone loss. Mechanically, NDR2 enhanced autophagy and mitophagy through mediating ULK1 instability. In addition, ULK1 inhibitor (ULK1-IN2) ameliorated NDR2 conditional KO-induced bone loss. Finally, we clarified a significant inverse association between NDR2 expression and the occurrence of osteoporosis in patients. The NDR2/ULK1/mitophagy axis is a potential innovative therapeutic target for the prevention and management of bone loss.
