Transcriptomic regulation of pancreatic acinar cell homeostasis and plasticity.
Review in Biochemical Society transactions, 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
Pancreatic acinar cells are highly specialized secretory epithelial cells in which coordinated transcriptional, epigenetic, and post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms maintain digestive enzyme production, polarized architecture, and lineage fidelity. This homeostatic network preserves acinar identity while enabling rapid adaptation to physiological stress. Disruption of these regulatory mechanisms triggers acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM), a reversible reprogramming state that supports acinar cell survival and regeneration after acute injury. However, if ADM persists under chronic inflammation or oncogenic KRAS activation, it can facilitate the initiation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Elucidating these mechanisms offers opportunities to restore acinar cell homeostasis, reverse ADM, and prevent neoplastic transformation. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on the transcriptional, epigenetic, and post-transcriptional regulation of acinar cell homeostasis and plasticity, with emphasis on their roles in ADM.
