ABL1‒YAP1 axis in intestinal stem cell activated by deoxycholic acid contributes to hepatic steatosis.
Article in Journal of translational medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundYes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) regulates the survival, proliferation, and stemness of cells, and contributes to the development of metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). However, the regulatory role of intestinal YAP1 in MAFLD still remains unclear.
methodsTerminal ileal specimens were used to compare intestinal YAP1 activation in patients with and without MAFLD. Mice targeted for knocking out YAP1 in the intestinal epithelium were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) for 8 consecutive weeks. In a separate group, the mice were fed an HFD supplemented with the bile acid binder cholestyramine (CHO) or a low-fat diet with deoxycholic acid (DCA). Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry, Western blot, RT-qPCR, ELISA, 16S rDNA sequencing, tissue and enteroid culture techniques were used to evaluate the effects of an HFD or DCA on the gut‒liver axis in mice or humans.
resultsIntestinal YAP1 was activated in both humans with MAFLD and mice fed an HFD. In in vivo studies, YAP1 knockout in intestinal epithelial cells of mice alleviated the hepatic steatosis induced by an HFD, and mitigated the adverse effects of HFD on the gut‒liver axis, including the upregulation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and inflammation levels, enrichment of intestinal Gram-negative bacteria, and inhibition of intestinal stem cell (ISC) differentiation into the goblet and Paneth cells. High-fat feeding (HFF) produced high concentrations of DCA. The consumption of DCA mimics these HFF-induced changes, and is accompanied by the activation of Abelson tyrosine-protein kinase 1 (ABL1) and its direct substrate, YAP1, in the terminal ileum. In vitro studies further confirmed that DCA upregulated the tyrosine phosphorylation of YAP1
conclusionsOur findings reveal that the activation of the ABL1‒YAP1 axis in ISCs by DCA contributes to hepatic steatosis through the gut‒liver axis, which may provide a potential intestinal therapeutic target for MAFLD.
