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

aimTo investigate whether AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) regulates the expression of pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1), a beta-cell-specific transcription factor and whether PPARalpha/gamma is involved in the regulation of pancreatic beta-cell lines after acute stimulation.

methodsRat insulinoma cell line INS-1 was treated with an activator (AICAR) or inhibitor (Compound C) of AMPK as well as inhibitors of PPARs (MK886 to PPARalpha and BADGE to PPARgamma). The mRNA levels of PDX-1, PPARalpha and PPARgamma were measured using real-time RT-PCR, and Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression of these factors.

resultsActivation of AMPK by AICAR induced significantly increased the expression of PDX-1, and this increase was abrogated when AMPK was inactivated by Compound C. Similarly, the expression of PPARalpha and PPARgamma was also increased by AICAR or decreased by Compound C. However AMPK activation did not increase nuclear PDX-1 protein levels when PPARalpha was inhibited. In contrast, AMPK activation still up-regulated PDX-1 protein levels during PPARgamma inhibition. Additionally, PPARalpha activation induced by fenofibrate significantly enhanced nuclear PDX-1 protein expression.

conclusionAMPK regulates the expression of PDX-1 at both the transcriptional and protein levels, and PPARalpha may be acutely involved in the regulation of INS-1 cells.
