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

RNA interference (RNAi) has tremendous potential for investigating gene function and developing new therapies. However, the design and validation of proficient vehicles for stable and safe microRNA (miR) and small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery into relevant target cells remains an active area of investigation. Here, we developed a lentiviral platform to efficiently coexpress one or more natural/artificial miR together with a gene of interest from constitutive or regulated polymerase-II (Pol-II) promoters. By swapping the stem-loop (sl) sequence of a selected primary transcript (pri-miR) with that of other miR or replacing the stem with an siRNA of choice, we consistently obtained robust expression of the chimeric/artificial miR in several cell types. We validated our platform transducing a panel of engineered cells stably expressing sensitive reporters for miR activity and on a natural target. This approach allowed us to quantitatively assess at steady state the target suppression activity and expression level of each delivered miR and to compare it to those of endogenous miR. Exogenous/artificial miR reached the concentration and activity typical of highly expressed natural miR without perturbing endogenous miR maturation or regulation. Finally, we demonstrate the robust performance of the platform reversing the anergic/suppressive phenotype of human primary regulatory T cells (Treg) by knocking-down their master gene Forkhead Transcription Factor P3 (FOXP3).
