BMP signaling promotes zebrafish heart regeneration via alleviation of replication stress.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
In contrast to mammals, adult zebrafish achieve complete heart regeneration via proliferation of cardiomyocytes. Surprisingly, we found that regenerating cardiomyocytes experience DNA replication stress, which represents one reason for declining tissue regeneration during aging in mammals. Pharmacological inhibition of ATM and ATR kinases revealed that DNA damage response signaling is essential for zebrafish heart regeneration. Manipulation of Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP)-Smad signaling using transgenics and mutants showed that BMP signaling alleviates cardiomyocyte replication stress. BMP signaling also rescues neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes, human fibroblasts and human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) from replication stress. DNA fiber spreading assays indicate that BMP signaling facilitates re-start of replication forks after replication stress-induced stalling. Our results identify the ability to overcome replication stress as key factor for the elevated zebrafish heart regeneration capacity and reveal a conserved role for BMP signaling in promotion of stress-free DNA replication.
