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

Adult organ-specific stem cells are essential for organ homeostasis and tissue repair and regeneration. The formation of such stem cells during vertebrate development is poorly understood. Intestinal remodeling during thyroid hormone (T3)-dependent Xenopus metamorphosis resembles postembryonic intestinal maturation in mammals. During metamorphosis, the intestine is remodeled de novo via a yet unknown mechanism. Protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) is up-regulated in and required for adult intestinal stem cells during metamorphosis. PRMT1 up-regulation is the earliest known molecular event for the developing stem cells and is also conserved during zebrafish and mouse intestinal development. To analyze how PRMT1 is specifically up-regulated during the formation of the adult intestinal stem cells, we cloned the Xenopus PRMT1 promoter and characterized it in CaCo-2 cells, a human cell line with intestinal stem cell characteristics. Through a series deletion and mutational analyses, we showed that the stem cell-associated transcription factor c-Myc could bind to a conserved site in the first intron to activate the promoter. Furthermore, we demonstrated that during metamorphosis, both c-Myc and PRMT1 were highly up-regulated, specifically in the remodeling intestine but not the resorbing tail, and that c-Myc was induced by T3 prior to PRMT1 up-regulation. In addition, we showed that T3 directly activated the c-Myc gene during metamorphosis in the intestine via binding of the T3 receptor to the c-Myc promoter. These results suggest that T3 induces c-Myc transcription directly in the intestine, that c-Myc, in turn, activates PRMT1 expression, and that this is an important gene regulation cascade controlling intestinal stem cell development.
