GADD45G operates as a pathological sensor orchestrating reactive gliosis and neurodegeneration.

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
Reactive gliosis is a hallmark of neuropathology and offers a potential target for addressing numerous neurological diseases. Here, we show that growth arrest and DNA damage inducible gamma (GADD45G), a stress sensor in astrocytes, is a nodal orchestrator of reactive gliosis and neurodegeneration. GADD45G expression in astrocytes is sufficient to incite astrogliosis, microgliosis, synapse loss, compromised animal behavior, and the aggravation of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Conversely, silencing GADD45G specifically in astrocytes preserves synapses and rescues the histological and behavioral phenotypes of AD. Mechanistically, GADD45G controls the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 4 (MAP3K4) and neuroimmune signaling pathways, including nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3), leading to profound molecular changes and the secretion of various factors that regulate both cell-autonomous and cell-nonautonomous reactive gliosis and glia-neuron interactions. These results uncover GADD45G signaling as a promising therapeutic target for AD and potentially for numerous other neurological disorders.
