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

Degradation of DNA during gene delivery is an obstacle for gene transfer and for gene therapy. DNases play a major role in degrading foreign DNA. However, which of the DNases are involved and whether their inactivation can improve gene delivery have not been studied. We have recently identified deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) and endonuclease G (EndoG) as the major degradative enzymes in the mouse kidney proximal tubule epithelial (TKPTS) cells. In this study, we used immortalized mouse TKPTS cells and primary tubular epithelial cells isolated from DNase I or EndoG knockout (KO) mice and examined the degradation of plasmid DNA during its uptake. DNase I and EndoG KO cells showed a higher rate of transfection by pECFP-N1 plasmid than wild-type cells. In addition, EndoG KO cells prevented the uptake of fluorescent-labeled RNA. Complete inhibition of secreted DNase I by G-actin did not improve plasmid transfection, indicating that only intracellular DNase I affects DNA stability. Data demonstrate the importance of DNase I and EndoG in host cell defense against gene and RNA delivery to renal tubular epithelial cells in vitro.
