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

Pin1 is a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase which catalyzes the isomerization of phosphorylated Ser/Thr-Pro peptide bonds. Pin1 knockout mice have marked abnormalities in their reproductive development and function. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying their reproductive defects are poorly understood. Herein, we demonstrate that Pin1 is required for both basal and GnRH-induced gonadotropin beta-subunit gene transcription, through interactions with the transcription factors SF-1, Pitx1, and Egr-1. Pin1 activates transcription of the gonadotropin beta-subunit genes synergistically with these transcription factors, either by modulating their stability or by increasing their protein-protein interactions. Notably, we provide evidence that Pin1 is required for the Ser203 phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination of SF-1, which facilitates SF-1-Pitx1 interactions and therefore results in an enhancement of SF-1 transcriptional activity. Furthermore, we demonstrate that in gonadotrope cells, sufficient levels of activated Pin1 are maintained through transcriptional and posttranslational regulation by GnRH-induced signaling cascades. Our results suggest that Pin1 functions as a novel player in GnRH-induced signal pathways and is involved in gonadotropin beta-subunit gene transcription by modulating the activity of various specific transcription factors.
