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

backgroundADNP is vital for embryonic development. Is this function conserved for the homologous protein ADNP2?

resultsDown-regulation/silencing of ADNP or ADNP2 in zebrafish embryos or mouse erythroleukemia cells inhibited erythroid maturation, with ADNP directly associating with the β-globin locus control region.

conclusionADNPs are novel molecular regulators of erythropoiesis. SIGNIFICANCE: New regulators of globin synthesis are suggested. Activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) and its homologue ADNP2 belong to a homeodomain, the zinc finger-containing protein family. ADNP is essential for mouse embryonic brain formation. ADNP2 is associated with cell survival, but its role in embryogenesis has not been evaluated. Here, we describe the use of the zebrafish model to elucidate the developmental roles of ADNP and ADNP2. Although we expected brain defects, we were astonished to discover that the knockdown zebrafish embryos were actually lacking blood and suffered from defective hemoglobin production. Evolutionary conservation was established using mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) cells, a well studied erythropoiesis model, in which silencing of ADNP or ADNP2 produced similar results as in zebrafish. Exogenous RNA encoding ADNP/ADNP2 rescued the MEL cell undifferentiated state, demonstrating phenotype specificity. Brg1, an ADNP-interacting chromatin-remodeling protein involved in erythropoiesis through regulation of the globin locus, was shown here to interact also with ADNP2. Furthermore, chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed recruitment of ADNP, similar to Brg1, to the mouse β-globin locus control region in MEL cells. This recruitment was apparently diminished upon dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-induced erythrocyte differentiation compared with the nondifferentiated state. Importantly, exogenous RNA encoding ADNP/ADNP2 significantly increased β-globin expression in MEL cells in the absence of any other differentiation factors. Taken together, our results reveal an ancestral role for the ADNP protein family in maturation and differentiation of the erythroid lineage, associated with direct regulation of β-globin expression.
