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

NPR1/GCA (natriuretic peptide receptor 1/guanylyl cyclase A) expression is controlled by several agents, including ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide). After ANP stimulation, NPR1/GCA down-regulates the transcriptional activity of its gene via a cGMP-dependent mechanism. Because we previously identified a cis-acting element responsible for this cGMP sensitivity, we proceed here to explore novel putative protein binding to cGMP-response element (cGMP-RE). Using the yeast one-hybrid technique with a human kidney cDNA library, we identified a strong positive clone able to bind cGMP-RE. The clone was derived from 1083-bp-long cDNA of a gene of yet unknown function localized on human chromosome 1 (1p33.36). We named this new protein GREBP (for cGMP-response element-binding protein). DNA binding assays showed 18-fold higher cGMP-RE binding capacity than the controls, whereas an electromobility shift assay indicated a specific binding for the cGMP-RE, and chromatin immunoprecipitation confirmed the binding of GREBP to the element under physiological conditions. By acting on cGMP-RE, GREBP inhibited the expression of a luciferase-coupled NPR1 promoter construct. In H295R cells, ANP heightened GREBP expression by 60% after just 3 h of treatment while inhibiting NPR1/GCA expression by 30%. Silencing GREBP with specific small interfering RNA increased the activity of the luciferase-coupled NPR1 promoter and GCA/NPR1 mRNA levels. GREBP is a nuclear protein mainly expressed in the heart. We report here the existence of a human-specific gene that acts as a transcriptional repressor of the NPR1/GCA gene.
