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

Here we report the specific regulation of gadd45 expression in human melanoma cell lines following UVB radiation. This solar wavelength is likely to be involved in melanoma aetiology. We have previously shown that gadd45 expression is strongly enhanced in a p53-independent manner following UVB irradiation, unlike the other p53 target genes studied. Furthermore, gadd45 is specifically activated in melanocytes since its induction in response to UVB, is not observed in other skin cells such as keratinocytes or fibroblasts. To investigate this particular regulation of gadd45, we analysed the UVB-induced response of different gadd45 promoter regions. Thus, a minimal promoter region of 50 bp length, responsible for gadd45 activation in melanoma cell lines following UVB irradiation, was determined. In electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs), we showed that this region (-106/-56) of the gadd45 promoter which contains two identical octamers, binds the POU family gene products oct-1 and N-oct3. Given the specific expression pattern of N-oct3 in melanocyte, we invalidated the expression of this transcription factor in melanoma cells: such an abrogation of N-oct3 protein expression in melanoma cells impeded gadd45 UVB-response. Thus the response of melanocyte to UVB may use an original and previously undescribed pathway.
