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

LOX-1, a receptor for ox-LDL (oxidized low-density lipoprotein), has recently been determined to play a critical role in the progression of atherosclerosis. LOX-1 expression (mRNA and protein) has been shown to be up-regulated by pro-atherogenic stimuli, such as ox-LDL and Ang II (angiotensin II). However, the molecular mechanisms of these up-regulations are unclear. In the present study, we explored LOX-1 transcriptional promoter activation in response to ox-LDL and Ang II. Under basal states, LOX-1 core promoter (LOX-1 -35/+36) was found to be sufficient for its basal activity in HCAECs (human coronary artery endothelial cells). More importantly, we found that ox-LDL (60 microg/ml for 24 h) induced LOX-1 promoter activity significantly and that a 105 bp fragment (between nt -1599 and -1494) was required for this activation. Within this 106 bp fragment, there is a potential binding motif for the transcription factor Oct-1 (octamer-1). By electrophoretic mobility-shift assay, we observed the activation of Oct-1 by ox-LDL. The critical role of Oct-1 in ox-LDL-induced LOX-1 promoter activation was further confirmed by mutagenesis assay. For comparison, we also examined LOX-1 promoter activation in response to Ang II (1 micromol/l for 24 h). Interestingly, another promoter region, between nt -2336 and -1990, was required for Ang II-induced LOX-1 promoter activation. In conclusion, the present study strongly suggests that ox-LDL, by activating Oct-1, induces LOX-1 promoter activation. Furthermore, this study suggests that while ox-LDL and Ang II both induce LOX-1 expression in HCAECs, the underlying mechanisms of promoter activation are different from each other.
