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

The Ets transcription factors regulate a wide variety of biologic processes. Several members have been shown to play a role in regulating angiogenesis and vascular development. For example, the Ets factor ELF-1 is enriched in the developing vasculature of the embryo, where it regulates the expression of the Tie2 gene. We have determined that ELF-1 and Tie2 expression is also enriched in tumor blood vessels, and have identified a short peptide, 34 amino acids in length, corresponding to the terminal portion of the highly conserved ETS domain that potently blocks the function of ELF-1. A tailored ELF-1 blocking peptide, containing a 12-amino acid HIV-1 TAT protein, readily crosses the cell membrane and enters into the nucleus of endothelial cells, leading to a marked reduction in the expression of ELF-1 gene targets including Tie2 and endothelial nitric oxide synthase. Furthermore, the ELF-1 blocking peptide potently inhibits angiopoietin-1-mediated endothelial cell migration. Systemic administration of this peptide markedly attenuates B16 melanoma tumor growth and tumor-associated angiogenesis in nude mice. These results support the function of ELF-1 in the regulation of Tie2 gene expression during the development of tumor angiogenesis.
