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

Airway occlusion in obstructive airway diseases is caused in part by the overproduction of secretory mucin glycoproteins through the up-regulation of mucin (MUC) genes by inflammatory mediators. Some pharmacological agents, including the glucocorticoid dexamethasone (Dex), repress mucin concentrations in lung epithelial cancer cells. Here, we show that Dex reduces the expression of MUC5AC, a major airway mucin gene, in primary differentiated normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner, and that the Dex-induced repression is mediated by the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and two glucocorticoid response elements (GREs) in the MUC5AC promoter. The pre-exposure of cells to RU486, a GR antagonist, and mutations in either the GRE3 or GRE5 cis-sites abolished the Dex-induced repression. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays showed a rapid temporal recruitment of GR to the GRE3 and GRE5 cis-elements in the MUC5AC promoter in NHBE and in A549 cells. Immunofluorescence showed nuclear colocalization of GR and histone deacetylase-2 (HDAC2) in MUC5AC-expressing NHBE cells. ChIP also showed a rapid temporal recruitment of HDAC2 to the GRE3 and GRE5 cis-elements in the MUC5AC promoter in both cell types. The knockdown of HDAC2 by HDAC2-specific short interfering RNA prevented the Dex-induced repression of MUC5AC in NHBE and A549 cells. These data demonstrate that GR and HDAC2 are recruited to the GRE3 and GRE5 cis-sites in the MUC5AC promoter and mediate the Dex-induced cis repression of MUC5AC gene expression. A better understanding of the mechanisms whereby glucocorticoids repress MUC5AC gene expression may be useful in formulating therapeutic interventions in chronic lung diseases.
