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

aims/hypothesisPPARgamma, a member of the nuclear hormone receptor family of transcription factors, plays a key role in adipocyte differentiation and insulin sensitivity. The aim of this study was to identify a potential dominant negative murine PPARgamma mutant and to characterize the in vitro functional properties of this mutant.

methodsIn vitro transient transfections and mammalian two-hybrid assays in TSA201 cells were used to characterize the transcriptional activity of the L466A mutant and to study the molecular interaction of transcriptional cofactors with the L466A mutant in an attempt to elucidate the mechanism of its dominant negative activity. Adenoviral constructs expressing PPARgamma wild-type (AdWT) or the L466A mutant (AdL466A) were infected into the murine 3T3-L1 cell line to study the mutant's effect on adipogenesis.

resultsThe L466A mutant alone is transcriptionally defective. However, it retains DNA binding and inhibits the ligand-dependent and -independent activity of the wild-type receptor, consistent with dominant negative properties. In mammalian two-hybrid studies, the L466A mutant does not bind nuclear receptor coactivators. However, it more avidly recruits corepressors due to enhanced binding to the corepressor ID1 domain, leading to pronounced transcriptional repression. The AdL466A mutant inhibits adipogenesis induced by either a differentiation cocktail or by thiazolidinedione ligand. AdL466A infection also blocked the upregulation of the adipocyte marker genes aP2 and adipsin.

conclusionWe conclude that the L466A PPARgamma mutant possesses potent dominant negative activity based on preferential corepressor recruitment and it inhibits adipogenesis and the expression of adipocyte-specific genes.
