Transcriptomic Analysis of Diabetic Erectile Dysfunction Rats After Red Blood Cell Exosome Treatment.
Article in Genes, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAs the prevalence of diabetes continues to rise each year, increasing attention is focused on its complications, including erectile dysfunction (ED). However, effective therapeutic agents for diabetes mellitus erectile dysfunction (DMED) are often inadequate. Exosomes, which are extracellular vesicles containing proteins and microRNAs, demonstrated remarkable capabilities in modulating pathophysiological processes related to tissue repair, anti-inflammatory responses, and immune regulation.
methodsTranscriptomic analysis was conducted to investigate gene alterations and associated pathways in the penile smooth muscle of DMED rats, both before and after exosome treatment. And the genes (
resultsResults show that 13,947 genes were expressed in both the DMED group and the Exo group. Analysis of gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways revealed significant enrichment in the Exo group for molecular pathways including PPAR and cAMP signaling. These genes are primarily involved in immune regulation and collagen deposition biological processes within the smooth muscle of the penis in DMED rats.
conclusionsTranscriptome analysis revealed important genes and pathways that regulate various biological processes. These findings offer a novel approach for decreasing collagen deposition in this tissue.
