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 transient receptor potential cationic channel TRPV4 contributes to different aspects of cell physiology via the generation of a Ca2+ signal and/or depolarization of the membrane potential. TRPV4 channel integrates distinct physical and chemical stimuli, including osmotic and mechanical stress, heat, acidic pH, endogenous ligands, and synthetic agonists such as 4alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate (4alphaPDD). Although several regulatory sites controlling TRPV4 channel activity have been identified, very little is known about the regulation of TRPV4 expression, a situation common to other TRP channels. Here we show that TRPV4 expression is under the control of progesterone in both human airways and mammary gland epithelial cells, as well as in vascular smooth muscle cells. Exposure of human airways epithelial CFT1-LCFSN and mammary gland epithelial T47D cells to progesterone decreased TRPV4 mRNA and protein expression. Consequently, 4alphaPDD-induced cationic currents and Ca2+ signals were also diminished in progesterone-treated cells. The effect of progesterone was reverted by the progesterone receptor (PR) antagonist RU-486 or following transfection with small interference RNA (siRNA) against both PRA and PRB isoforms. Interestingly, TRPV4 expression and activity were increased in T47D mammary gland epithelial cells when PR was silenced with siRNA. Transcriptional regulation of -1.3 kB TRPV4 promoter-luciferase plasmids was also evaluated in vascular smooth muscle cells. TRPV4 promoter activity was reduced by coexpression with PR and further reduced in the presence of PG. Together, our data report the regulation of TRPV4 expression by progesterone, a process that requires a functional PR.
