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

Evidence is emerging that the E2F family of transcription factors plays an important role in the regulation of gene expression at the G1/S transition in plants. Here, we show that in the tobacco proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), whose transcript is specifically expressed at G1/S phase, the two E2F binding sites are synergistically responsible for transcriptional activation at G1/S phase in synchronized tobacco BY-2 cells transformed with promoter constructs fused to a reporter gene. In addition, we have isolated the tobacco DP cDNA (NtDP) and showed that significant activation of the reporter gene was observed in transient expression assays by concomitantly transfecting with plasmids expressing NtE2F and NtDP. This transcriptional activation was repressed by co-transfection with a plasmid expressing NtRBR1; in vitro pull-down assays also revealed that NtRBR1 binds directly to NtE2F, thereby potentially blocking the transcriptional activation of NtE2F. Importantly, this repressor activity was cancelled when NtRBR1 was further co-transfected with a plasmid expressing cyclin D but not with cyclin A or cyclin B. These results are discussed with respect to the repression activity of NtRBR1 on the NtE2F/NtDP complex.
