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

Fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) has been suggested to have an important role in cell growth, proliferation, and neurogenesis. Human FGF1 gene 1B promoter (-540 to +31)-driven green fluorescence (F1BGFP) has been shown to monitor endogenous FGF1 expression. F1BGFP could also be used to isolate neural stem/progenitor cells from embryonic, neonatal, and adult mouse brains or to isolate glioblastoma stem cells (GBM-SCs) from human glioblastoma tissues. Here, we present evidence that transcription factor RFX1 could bind the 18-bp cis-elements (-484 to -467) of the F1B promoter, modulate F1BGFP expression and endogenous FGF1 expression, and further regulate the maintenance of GBM-SCs. These observations were substantiated by using yeast one-hybrid assay, electrophoretic mobility shift assay, chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, gain- and loss-of-function assays, and neurosphere assays. Overexpression of RFX1 was shown to down-regulate FGF-1B mRNA expression and neurosphere formation in human glioblastoma cells, whereas RNA interference knockdown of RFX1 demonstrated the opposite effects. Our findings provide insight into FGF1 gene regulation and suggest that the roles of FGF1 and RFX1 in the maintenance of GBM-SCs. RFX1 may negatively regulate the self-renewal of GBM-SCs through modulating FGF-1B and FGF1 expression levels by binding the 18-bp cis-elements of the F1B promoter.
