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

Importin-beta family members, which shuttle between the nucleus and the cytoplasm, are essential for nucleocytoplasmic transport of macromolecules. We attempted to explore whether importin-beta family proteins change their cellular localization in response to environmental change. In this report, we show that transportin (TRN) was minimally detected in cytoplasmic processing bodies (P-bodies) under normal cell conditions but largely translocated to stress granules (SGs) in stressed cells. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching analysis indicated that TRN moves rapidly in and out of cytoplasmic granules. Depletion of TRN greatly enhanced P-body formation but did not affect the number or size of SGs, suggesting that TRN or its cargo(es) participates in cellular function of P-bodies. Accordingly, TRN associated with tristetraprolin (TTP) and its AU-rich element (ARE)-containing mRNA substrates. Depletion of TRN increased the number of P-bodies and stabilized ARE-containing mRNAs, as observed with knockdown of the 5'-3' exonuclease Xrn1. Moreover, depletion of TRN retained TTP in P-bodies and meanwhile reduced the fraction of mobile TTP to SGs. Therefore, our data together suggest that TRN plays a role in trafficking of TTP between the cytoplasmic granules and whereby modulates the stability of ARE-containing mRNAs.
