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

High-mobility group A1 (Hmga1) protein is an architectural chromatin factor, and aberrant Hmga1 expression in mice causes hematopoietic malignancies with defects in cellular differentiation. However, the functional involvement of Hmga1 in hematopoietic development and leukemic cells remains to be elucidated. Using Hmga1-green fluorescent protein (GFP) knock-in mice that endogenously express an Hmga1-GFP fusion protein, we examined Hmga1 expression in undifferentiated and differentiated populations of hematopoietic cells. During early T cell development in the thymus, Hmga1 is highly expressed in CD4/CD8-double negative (DN) cells and is transiently downregulated in CD4/CD8-double positive (DP) cells. Consistently, Hmga1 directly binds to cis-regulatory elements in the CD4/CD8 loci and the heterochromatin foci in DN-stage cells, but not in DP cells. Interestingly, CD4/CD8 expression in DN-stage leukemic cells is induced by inhibition of Hmga1 binding to nuclear DNA or RNA interference-mediated Hmga1 knockdown. In addition, Hmga1-depleted leukemic T cells markedly diminish proliferation, with transcriptional activation of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor genes as a direct target of Hmga1. The data in the present study reveal a role of Hmga1 in transcriptional silencing in T cell lineages and leukemic cells.
