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

aimTo investigate the role of transcription factor c-Ets1 in cyclin D3 expression and its effects on the proliferation of umbilical cord hematopoietic cells.

methodsCyclin D3 promoter deletion constructs were generated and transfected into CD34(+) cells. Dual luciferase reporter assays and TFSEARCH software were used to identify negative regulatory domains and to predict putative transcription factors involved in cyclin D3 downregulation. Expression of c-Ets1 in CD34(+) cells was detected using electrophoretic mobility shift and super shift assays. Point mutants of c-Ets1 binding sites were constructed. The wild-type c-Ets1 and the mutant promoter constructs were co-transfected into CD34(+) cells to determine the promoter activity. The impact of c-Ets1 expression on the proliferation of CD34(+) cells was assessed using MTT assay.

resultsNine cyclin D3 promoter deletion constructs were generated. A negative regulatory domain containing c-Ets1 binding sites was identified between -439 bp and -362 bp. Transfection of the promoter deletion constructs containing mutant c-Ets1 binding sites enhanced cyclin D3 promoter activity. However, the opposite results were observed when CD34(+) cells were co-transfected with wildtype c-Ets1 and its promoter deletion constructs. The overexpression of c-Ets1 could suppress cyclin D3 mRNA and protein levels. In addition, it inhibits the proliferation of CD34(+) cells.

conclusionc-Ets1 functions as a negative transcription factor, down-regulating the expression of cyclin D3, which leads to inhibition of CD34(+) cell proliferation.
