A KLF4-miRNA-206 autoregulatory feedback loop can promote or inhibit protein translation depending upon cell context.

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.
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
Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4), a transcription factor that regulates cell fate in a context-dependent fashion, is normally induced upon growth arrest or differentiation. In many cancer cells there is dysregulation, with increased expression in proliferating cells. To identify sequence elements that mediate KLF4 suppression in normal epithelial cells, we utilized a luciferase reporter and RK3E cells, which undergo a proliferation-differentiation switch to form an epithelial sheet. A translational control element (TCE) within the KLF4 3'-untranslated region interacted with microRNAs (miRs) 206 and 344-1 to promote or inhibit KLF4 expression, respectively, in proliferating epithelial cells. Overall, the TCE suppressed expression in proliferating primary human mammary epithelial cells, but this suppressive effect was attenuated in immortalized mammary epithelial MCF10A cells, in which Dicer1 and miR-206 promoted KLF4 expression and TCE reporter activity. In contrast to MCF10A cells, in breast cancer cells the activity of miR-206 was switched, and it repressed KLF4 expression and TCE reporter activity. As miR-206 levels were KLF4 dependent, the results identify a KLF4-miR-206 feedback pathway that oppositely affects protein translation in normal cells and cancer cells. In addition, the results indicate that two distinct miRs can have opposite and competing effects on translation in proliferating cells.
