The biological effects of C/EBPalpha in K562 cells depend on the potency of the N-terminal regulatory region, not on specificity of the DNA binding domain.

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

The transcription factor C/EBPα is more potent than C/EBPβ in inducing granulocitic differentiation and inhibiting BCR/ABL-expressing cells. We took a "domain swapping" approach to assess biological effects, modulation of gene expression, and binding to C/EBPα-regulated promoters by wild-type and chimeric C/EBPα/C/EBPβ proteins. Wild-type and N-C/EBPα+ C/EBPβ-DBD induced transcription of the granulocyte-colony stimulating factor receptor (G-CSFR) gene, promoted differentiation, and suppressed proliferation of K562 cells vigorously; instead, wild-type C/EBPβ and N-C/EBPβ+C/EBPα-DBD had modest effects, although they bound the G-CSFR promoter like wild-type C/EBPα and N-C/EBPα+C/EBPβ-DBD. Chimeric proteins consisting of the TAD of VP16 and the DBD of C/EBPα or C/EBPβ inhibited proliferation and induced differentiation of K562 cells as effectively as wild-type C/EBPα. Gene expression profiles induced by C/EBPα resembled those modulated by N-C/EBPα+C/EBPβ-DBD, whereas C/EBPβ induced a pattern similar to that of N-C/EBPβ+C/EBPα-DBD. C/EBPα activation induced changes in the expression of more cell cycle- and apoptosis-related genes than the other proteins and enhanced Imatinib-induced apoptosis of K562 cells. Expression of FOXO3a, a novel C/EBPα-regulated gene, was required for apoptosis but not for differentiation induction or proliferation inhibition of K562 cells.
