Characterization of Steroid Metabolic Pathways in Established Human and Mouse Cell Models.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Immortalized adrenal, placental and gonadal cell models are often termed steroidogenic based on steroid hormone production and steroidogenic enzymes. Profiling of 'classic' steroid metabolites is common; however, downstream untargeted metabolites remain unidentified. This study characterized steroidogenesis in human adrenal H295R and H295A; placental BeWo and JEG-3; mouse Leydig MA-10; and mouse adrenal Y-1 and OS-3 cells. Steroids were determined under basal, stimulated and serum-free conditions using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. This study identified distinct differences in mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid production in the two human adrenal models and between the human and mouse adrenal models; unconventional hydroxylated progesterone steroid metabolites in all models which were most abundant in MA-10 cells; glucocorticoids and abundant classical androgens in MA-10 cells; 11-oxy androgens in H295R, H295A and MA-10 cells; comparable levels of the classical androgens in H295R and MA-10 cells, while 11-oxy androgen were more abundant in H295R and H295A cells; and high pregnenolone and progesterone in placental models with limited hydroxylated progesterone metabolites. Our detailed protocols and comprehensive steroid profiles provide an invaluable guide to researchers for in vitro investigations into steroidogenesis.
