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

Fibulin-5 (FBLN5) belongs to the Fibulin family of secreted extracellular matrix proteins, and our laboratory first established FBLN5 as a novel target for TGF-β in fibroblasts and endothelial cells. To better understand the pathophysiology of FBLN5, we carried out microarray analysis to identify fibroblast genes whose expressions were regulated by FBLN5 and TGF-β. In doing so, we identified fibromodulin (Fmod) as a novel target gene of FBLN5, and we validated the differential expression of Fmod and 12 other FBLN5-regulated genes by semi-quantitative real time PCR. Fmod belongs to the small leucine-rich family of proteoglycans, which are important constituents of mammalian extracellular matrices. Interestingly, parental 3T3-L1 fibroblasts displayed high levels of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activity, although those engineered to express Fmod constitutively exhibited significantly reduced NF-κB activity, suggesting that Fmod functions to inhibit NF-κB signaling. By monitoring alterations in the activation of NF-κB and the degradation of its inhibitor, IκBα, we demonstrate for the first time that Fmod contributes to the constitutive degradation of IκBα protein in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts. Mechanistically, we observed Fmod to delay the degradation of IκBα by promoting the following: (i) activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase; (ii) inhibition of calpain and casein kinase 2 activity; and (iii) induction of fibroblast apoptosis. Taken together, our study identified a novel function for Fmod in directing extracellular signaling, particularly the regulation of NF-κB activity and cell survival.
