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

Spinal muscular atrophy, an autosomal recessive disorder, is caused by loss of the SMN1 (survival motor neuron) gene while retaining the SMN2 gene. SMN1 produces a majority of full-length SMN transcript, whereas SMN2 generates mostly an isoform lacking exon 7. Here, we demonstrate a novel cAMP-response element, CRE-II, in the SMN promoter that interacts with the cAMP-response element-binding (CREB) family of proteins. In vitro DNase I protection analysis and in vivo genomic footprinting of the SMN promoter using the brain and liver nuclei from SMN2 transgenic mice revealed footprinting at the CRE-II site. Site-directed mutation of the CRE-II element caused a marked reduction in the SMN promoter activity revealed by transient transfection assay. Activation of the cAMP pathway by dibutyryl cAMP (0.5 mm) alone or in combination with forskolin (20 microm) caused a 2-5-fold increase in the SMN promoter activity but had no effect on the CRE-II mutated promoter. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay and a UV-induced DNA-protein cross-linking experiment confirmed that CREB1 binds specifically to the CRE-II site. Transient overexpression of CREB1 protein resulted in a 4-fold increase of the SMN promoter activity. Intraperitoneal injection of epinephrine in mice expressing two copies of the human SMN2 gene resulted in a 2-fold increase in full-length SMN transcript in the liver. Combined treatment with dibutyryl cAMP and forskolin significantly increased the level of both the full-length and exon 7-deleted SMN (exonDelta7SMN) transcript in primary hepatocytes from mice expressing two copies of human SMN2 gene. Similar treatments of type I spinal muscular atrophy mouse and human fibroblasts as well as HeLa cells resulted in an augmented level of SMN transcript. These findings suggest that the CRE-II site in SMN promoter positively regulates the expression of the SMN gene, and treatment with cAMP-elevating agents increases expression of both the full-length and exonDelta7SMN transcript.
