Regulation of mucin gene expression in human tracheobronchial epithelial cells by thyroid hormone.

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
We reported previously that the expression of the gene encoding MUC5AC mucin in human airway epithelial cells is controlled by retinoic acid via the retinoic acid receptor (RAR)-alpha and that 3,3',5-tri-iodothyronine (T(3)) inhibits the expression of MUC5AC. The purpose of the present study was to identify mechanisms mediating the effect of T(3). T(3) has been shown to inhibit gene expression via several mechanisms, either by enhancing or repressing the transcription of target genes or by the regulation of post-transcriptional events. Results showed that T(3) strongly inhibited MUC5AC-driven luciferase activity in normal human tracheobronchial epithelial cells that had been transiently transfected with a MUC5AC-luciferase reporter construct; however, it did not affect MUC5AC mRNA stability. These results indicate that T(3) suppresses MUC5AC expression at the transcriptional level. An analysis of deletion constructs showed that deletion of the region downstream of 3 kb resulted in markedly decreased levels of MUC5AC transcription in the absence of T(3) (i.e. under control conditions) as well as a loss of responsiveness to the inhibitory effects of T(3). This suggests that this region might contain elements important for the activation as well as the repression of MUC5AC transcription. To determine whether T(3) modulates retinoic-acid-dependent MUC5AC transcription via an alteration in the abundance of retinoid receptor proteins, we examined the type and abundance of these receptors in nuclear extracts of airway epithelial cells grown in the presence or absence of T(3). Western blots showed that T(3) markedly decreased several types of retinoid receptor while not affecting T(3) receptor proteins. Consistent with this finding were gel-shift assays revealing a decrease in RAR-retinoic acid response element complexes obtained from T(3)-treated cells. We propose that T(3) might inhibit retinoid-dependent MUC5AC expression by decreasing retinoid receptor levels and thereby decreasing the transcriptional activation of this gene for mucins.
