Luopan Mountain Pig Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Promote Liver Regeneration in D-Galactosamine-Induced Acute Liver Failure Rats by Regulating the PTEN-PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway.
Article in Biology, 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
Treatment for acute liver failure (ALF) is constrained by shortages of liver transplant donors and immune rejection. Porcine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (pBMSCs) demonstrate clinical potential in xenotransplantation due to their abundant availability, low immunogenicity, and strong proliferative activity. This study is the first to investigate the reparative effects and mechanisms of pBMSCs derived from Luopan Mountain pigs in a D-galactosamine (D-GalN)-induced ALF rat model. The results demonstrated that tail-vein transplantation of pBMSCs significantly improved survival rates in ALF rats; reduced serum ALT, AST, and TBIL levels; enhanced hepatic glycogen metabolism; and mitigated histopathological liver damage. Additionally, pBMSC transplantation upregulated serum HGF, IGF-1, and VEGF levels while inhibiting hepatocyte apoptosis. Mechanistic studies indicate that pBMSCs promote liver function recovery and regeneration by activating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway and suppressing its key negative regulator, PTEN, by regulating the expression of key genes involved in inflammation, fibrosis, proliferation, and apoptosis. This study provides crucial experimental evidence for the use of pBMSCs in treating acute liver failure (ALF) and lays the groundwork for its clinical translation in the field of xenotransplantation.
