v-Myb can transform and regulate the differentiation of melanocyte precursors.
Article in Oncogene, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The activity of the c-Myb transcription factor is essential for the development of definitive multi- and uni-lineage progenitors of the haemopoietic system. Reflecting this requirement, c-Myb has been oncogenically activated by transduction in the E26 avian retrovirus which elicits an acute leukaemia by transforming haemopoietic progenitors. Here, we report the novel finding that Myb in cooperation with EGF receptor signalling can be used to generate clonally expanded populations of transformed cells which have the phenotype of melanocyte precursors. Through the use of a conditional temperature sensitive mutant of Myb, we show that in the transformed cells Myb regulates commitment to melanocyte differentiation and possibly proliferation. These results add to our understanding of the roles of c-Myb beyond the haemopoietic system and to our knowledge and means of investigating the importance of transcription factors in the melanocyte lineage.
