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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small (18-22 nucleotide) non-coding, endogenous regulatory RNA molecules, and they regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level through binding to their target mRNAs by base-pairing and subsequently inducing either translational repression or mRNA destabilization by plants, animals, and some viruses. In this study, combining microarray techniques with qRT-PCR, we found that miR-126-3p expression showed significant difference in the mouse mammary cycle during pregnancy, particularly on transition from pregnancy to lactation. Bioinformatics were used to predict target gene of miR-126-3p, and luciferase activity assay to test it, it showed that the progesterone receptor (PGR) 3'UTR is directly targeted by miR-126-3p. In this study, mouse mammary epithelial cells as cell model in vitro were used to study the function of miR-126-3p. Using gene silencing and over-expression for miR-126-3p, the expression of PGR protein and the secretion of casein were detected by western blotting and HPLC, respectively. To determine whether miR-126-3p can affect mouse mammary epithelial cells viability, cells were analyzed by CASY-YY. In conclusion, PGR gene confirmed miR-126-3p target genes through luciferase activity and western blotting. And miR-126-3p could also inhibit proliferation of mouse mammary epithelial cells (P < 0.01) and expression of β-casein (P < 0.01), and down-regulate PGR protein (P < 0.05). Our results suggested that miR-126-3p inhibited expression of PGR protein level as well as the proliferation of mammary epithelial cells, therefore miR-126-3p could play an important role in the process of mammary gland development.
