Single-cell analysis of bidirectional reprogramming between early embryonic states identify mechanisms of differential lineage plasticities in mice.
Article in Developmental cell, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Two distinct lineages, pluripotent epiblast (EPI) and primitive (extra-embryonic) endoderm (PrE), arise from common inner cell mass (ICM) progenitors in mammalian embryos. To study how these sister identities are forged, we leveraged mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells and extra-embryonic endoderm (XEN) stem cells-in vitro counterparts of the EPI and PrE. Bidirectional reprogramming between ES and XEN coupled with single-cell RNA and ATAC-seq analyses showed distinct rates, efficiencies, and trajectories of state conversions, identifying drivers and roadblocks of reciprocal conversions. While GATA4-mediated ES-to-iXEN conversion was rapid and nearly deterministic, OCT4-, KLF4-, and SOX2-induced XEN-to-induced pluripotent stem (iPS) reprogramming progressed with diminished efficiency and kinetics. A dominant PrE transcriptional program, safeguarded by GATA4, alongside elevated chromatin accessibility and reduced DNA methylation of the EPI underscored the differential plasticities of the two states. Mapping in vitro to embryo trajectories tracked reprogramming cells in either direction along EPI and PrE in vivo states, without transitioning through the ICM.
