Opposite transcriptional activity between the wild type c-myc gene coding for c-Myc1 and c-Myc2 proteins and c-Myc1 and c-Myc2 separately.
Article in Oncogene, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
E-cadherin expression was previously shown to be activated by RB and c-myc specifically in epithelial cells, through interaction with the AP-2 transcription factor. Here we show that only a wild type c-myc gene, coding for the two c-Myc proteins c-Myc2 and c-Myc1, was able to transactivate the E-cadherin promoter, in contrast to c-Myc2 or c-Myc1 alone which strongly repressed E-cadherin in both epithelial cells and fibroblasts. In addition, overexpression of c-myc2 or c-myc1 inhibited c-myc and RB-mediated activation in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that the ratio of the two c-Myc proteins is essential for transactivation. We also showed by using several mutants of the E-cadherin promoter, that the AP-2 binding sites were the main target of c-myc2- and c-myc1-mediated repression. AP-2-mediated inhibition was cell-type specific, as was the activation. Nevertheless, when high amounts of c-myc2 and c-myc1 were used, a second c-myc-mediated repression was observed, possibly mediated by the Inr sequence of the E-cadherin promoter. However, this repression was independent of cell type. Our results suggest a new way to regulate c-myc transcriptional activity by interfering with the ratio of the two c-myc proteins, which has already been found to be disrupted in vivo in several tumor types.
