1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Class II transactivator (CIITA) is required for both constitutive and inducible expression of MHC class II genes. IFN-gamma induced expression of CIITA in various cell types is directed by CIITA type IV promoter. The two transactivators, STAT1 and IRF-1, mediate the IFN-gamma activation of the type IV promoter by binding to the GAS and IRF-E of the promoter, respectively. In addition to IRF-1, IRF-2, another member of the IRF family, also activates the human CIITA type IV promoter, and IRF-2 cooperates with IRF-1 to activate the promoter in transient transfection assays. IRF-1 and IRF-2 can co-occupy the IRF-E of the human CIITA type IV promoter. To understand the effect of loss of IRF-2 on the endogenous CIITA expression, we assayed for CIITA expression in IRF-2 knock-out mice. Both basal and IFN-gamma induced CIITA expression were reduced in IRF-2 knock-out mice. At least half of the amount of inducible CIITA mRNA depends on IRF-2. The reduction of IFN-gamma induced CIITA mRNA in IRF-2 knock-out mice was due to the reduction of the type IV CIITA mRNA induction. The reduction of basal CIITA mRNA was apparently due to the reduction of CIITA mRNA originating from other promoters. These data indicate that IRF-2, like IRF-1, plays a critical role in the regulation of the endogenous CIITA gene. The implications in understanding the previously described phenotypes of IRF-2 defective mice are discussed.
