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

Adipogenesis is a multistep process by which 3T3-L1 preadipocytes differentiate into mature adipocytes through mitotic clonal expansion (MCE) and terminal differentiation. The CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β (C/EBPβ) is an important transcription factor that takes part in both of these processes. C/EBPβ not only transactivates C/EBPα and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), which cause 3T3-L1 preadipocytes to enter terminal adipocyte differentiation, but also is required to activate cell cycle genes necessary for MCE. The identification of potential cofactors of C/EBPβ will help to explain how C/EBPβ undertakes these specialized roles during the different stages of adipogenesis. In this study, we found that activating transcription factor 5 (ATF5) can bind to the promoter of C/EBPα via its direct interaction with C/EBPβ (which is mediated via the p300-dependent acetylation of ATF5), leading to enhanced C/EBPβ transactivation of C/EBPα. We also show that p300 is important for the interaction of ATF5 with C/EBPβ as well as for the binding activity of this complex on the C/EBPα promoter. Consistent with these findings, overexpression of ATF5 and an acetylated ATF5 mimic both promoted 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation, whereas short interfering RNA-mediated ATF5 downregulation inhibited this process. Furthermore, we show that the elevated expression of ATF5 is correlated with an obese phenotype in both mice and humans. In summary, we have identified ATF5 as a new cofactor of C/EBPβ and examined how C/EBPβ and ATF5 (acetylated by a p300-dependent mechanism) regulate the transcription of C/EBPα.
