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

Transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) is a potent growth regulator and tumor suppressor in normal intestinal epithelium. Likewise, epithelial cell growth is controlled by rapid decay of growth-related mRNAs mediated through 3' untranslated region (UTR) AU-rich element (ARE) motifs. We demonstrate that treatment of nontransformed intestinal epithelial cells with TGF-β inhibited ARE-mRNA expression. This effect of TGF-β was promoted through increased assembly of cytoplasmic RNA processing (P) bodies where ARE-mRNA localization was observed. P-body formation was dependent on TGF-β/Smad signaling, as Smad3 deletion abrogated P-body formation. In concert with increased P-body formation, TGF-β induced expression of the ARE-binding protein tristetraprolin (TTP), which colocalized to P bodies. TTP expression was necessary for TGF-β-dependent P-body formation and promoted growth inhibition by TGF-β. The significance of this was observed in vivo, where colonic epithelium deficient in TGF-β/Smad signaling or TTP expression showed attenuated P-body levels. These results provide new insight into TGF-β's antiproliferative properties and identify TGF-β as a novel mRNA stability regulator in intestinal epithelium through its ability to promote TTP expression and subsequent P-body formation.
