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 transcription factor Egr-1 functions as a key regulator in cellular growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. The loss of Egr-1 expression is closely associated with tumor development, although the molecular mechanism behind the suppression of Egr-1 is largely unknown. In this report, we show that growth factor-induced transcriptional activation of Egr-1 gene is downregulated by chronic expression of oncogenic H-Ras in NIH3T3 fibroblasts. Our results demonstrate that phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling is necessary for oncogenic H-Ras-mediated reduction of Egr-1 gene expression. Aberrant activation of PI3K signaling by oncogenic Ras decreased the level of serum response factor (SRF) protein through the acceleration of proteolysis, which resulted in decreased SRF binding to the serum response element (SRE) sites within the Egr-1 promoter, leading to the suppression of Egr-1 transcription. Inhibition of PI3K signaling restored the downregulation of SRF and Egr-1 expression caused by oncogenic Ras. Our findings suggest a novel signaling mechanism by which prolonged activation of oncogenic H-Ras can trigger the loss of tumor suppressor Egr-1 through the PI3K pathway in NIH3T3 fibroblast model cell lines.
