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

Visualization and monitoring of endogenous mRNA in the cytoplasm of living cells promises a significant comprehension of refined post-transcriptional regulation. Fluorescently labeled linear antisense oligonucleotides can bind to natural mRNA in a sequence-specific way and, therefore, provide a powerful tool in probing endogenous mRNA. Here, we investigated the feasibility of using linear antisense probes to monitor the variable and dynamic expression of endogenous cytoplasmic mRNAs. Two linear antisense 2'-O-methyl RNA probes, which have different interactive fluorophores at the 5'-end of one probe and at the 3'-end of the other, were used to allow fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) upon hybridization to the target mRNA. By characterizing the formation of the probe-mRNA hybrids in living cells, we found that the probe composition and concentration are crucial parameters in the visualization of endogenous mRNA with high specificity. Furthermore, rapid hybridization (within 1 min) of the linear antisense probe enabled us to visualize dynamic processes of endogenous c-fos mRNA, such as fast elevation of levels after gene induction and the localization of c-fos mRNA in stress granules in response to cellular stress. Thus, our approach provides a basis for real time monitoring of endogenous cytoplasmic mRNA in living cells.
