Change in p53 nuclear localization in response to extracellular matrix stiffness.
Article in Smart medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Chondrocytes are commonly applied in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Thus, the discovery of optimal culture conditions to obtain cells with good properties and behavior for transplantation is important. In addition to biochemical cues, physical and biomechanical changes can affect the proliferation and protein expression of chondrocytes. Here we investigated the effect of extracellular matrix stiffness on mouse articular chondrocyte phenotype, growth, and subcellular p53 localization. Chondrocytes were seeded on collagen-coated substrates varying in elasticity: 0.5 and 100 kPa. Immunocytochemical staining and immunoblotting showed that a softer substrate significantly increased p53 nuclear localization in chondrocytes. Furthermore, we identified microRNA-532 (miR-532) as a potential p53 target gene to influence cell function, indicating a new target for tissue engineering. These findings provide insight into the influence of physical cues on cell phenotype maintenance and could help improve understanding of cartilage-related pathologies such as osteoarthritis.
