Proteomic analysis reveals selenium-induced metabolic alterations in forest-grown ginseng.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. 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
Selenium (Se) enriched forest-grown ginseng is famous for its high Se content and excellent protein quality, which are necessary for varieties of metabolic processes and play an important role in both ginseng growth and its health benefits for humans. However, the regulatory mechanism underlying Se enrichment and molecular responses of forest-grown ginseng after application of exogenous Se is still unclear. This study investigated the effect of Se fertilizer on molecular changes in physiological metabolisms of forest-grown ginseng during the growth process by analyzing differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). The results showed that 371 proteins were significantly changed under application of Se fertilizer. Further KEGG pathway analysis indicated that the DEPs are primarily involved in carbon metabolism, biosynthesis of amino acids, protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, oxidative phosphorylation and spliceosome. The expression levels of ATP sulfurylase, adenosine 5’-phosphosulfate reductase, nitrate reductase, nitrite reductase, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and H⁺-ATPase were up-regulated in ginseng treated with Se, and these key DEPs were mainly related to the maintenance of cellular membrane, antioxidant capacity and resistance to stresses. These findings reveal the nutritional and functional differences and establish a theoretical basis for further research on protein biological functions in forest-grown ginseng.
