Activation of the chicken Ig-beta locus by the collaboration of scattered regulatory regions through changes in chromatin structure.

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.
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
A total of 10 B-lymphocyte-specific DNase I hypersensitive sites located in the chicken Ig-beta locus were divided into four regions and combinations of deletions of these regions were carried out. A decrease in transcription of the Ig-beta gene to <3% was demonstrated in cells with deletions in all four regions. The Ig-beta chromatin was resistant to DNase I digestion in these cells. Thus, the collaboration is shown to convert the Ig-beta chromatin from the condensed state to a relaxed state. H3 and H4 acetylation decreased to <8% but H3K4 hypermethylation was observed at the Ig-beta promoter and exon 3. The collaboration of four regions had virtually no effect on CG hypomethylation in the region upstream the transcriptional start site. Accordingly, neither the DNase I general sensitive state in the Ig-beta chromatin nor hyperacetylation of H3 and H4 histones in the promoter proximal region causes H3K4 di-methylation or CG hypomethylation in the promoter. From these analyses, a chromatin situation was found in which both an active state, such as enhanced H3K4 methylation, or CG hypomethylation, and an inactive state, such as DNase I resistance in the Ig-beta chromatin or hypoacetylation of H3 and H4 histones in the Ig-beta locus, coexist.
