Matrine disturbs the eimeria necatrix-induced loop of tuft cell-intestinal stem cell-goblet cell by inactivating IL-13/JAK2/STAT3 signaling.

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
As sensors in the gut, tuft cells integrate a complex array of luminal signals to regulate the differentiation fate of intestinal stem cells (ISCs), which trigger a loop of tuft cell-ISC-goblet cell after parasitic infection. As a plant-derived alkaloid, Matrine plays a prominent role for standardizing ISC functions in Eimeria necatrix (EN)-exposed chicks. In this study, we investigated the modulation effects of Matrine on the specific intestinal epithelial cell loop in EN-exposed chicks in vivo and intestinal organoids (IOs) ex vivo. The results showed that EN infection resulted in swelling and hemorrhage of the jejunum, accompanied by the increase in levels of sIgA and inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α). And these inflammatory symptoms were effectively relieved by Matrine intervention. Concurrently, Matrine resisted the EN-induced increase in tuft cell numbers and levels of crucial pro-inflammatory factors (IL-25 and IL-13), while also reversing the differentiation of secretory cell progenitors into goblet cells. Importantly, Matrine impeded the upregulation of the inflammatory signaling pathway JAK2/STAT3 in EN-infected chicks and IOs. Conversely, exogenous supplementation of IL-13 or activation of STAT3 via Colivelin eliminated the standardization of the tuft cell-ISC-goblet cell loop by Matrine. Overall, our findings suggested that Matrine intercepted the tuft cell-ISC-goblet cell loop by reinstating IL-13/JAK2/STAT3 signaling after EN infection.
