RNAi targeting GPR4 influences HMEC-1 gene expression by microarray analysis.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
G-protein coupled receptor 4 (GPR4) belongs to a protein family comprised of 3 closely related G protein-coupled receptors. Recent studies have shown that GPR4 plays important roles in angiogenesis, proton sensing, and regulating tumor cells as an oncogenic gene. How GPR4 conducts its functions? Rare has been known. In order to detect the genes related to GPR4, microarray technology was employed. GPR4 is highly expressed in human vascular endothelial cell HMEC-1. Small interfering RNA against GPR4 was used to knockdown GPR4 expression in HMEC-1. Then RNA from the GPR4 knockdown cells and control cells were analyzed through genome microarray. Microarray results shown that among the whole genes and expressed sequence tags, 447 differentially expressed genes were identified, containing 318 up-regulated genes and 129 down-regulated genes. These genes whose expression dramatically changed may be involved in the GPR4 functions. These genes were related to cell apoptosis, cytoskeleton and signal transduction, cell proliferation, differentiation and cell-cycle regulation, gene transcription and translation and cell material and energy metabolism.
