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

PAX6-null mice exhibit defects in multiple organs leading to neonatal lethality, but the mechanism by which this occurs has not yet fully elucidated. In this study, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from Pax6-mutant mice and investigated the effect of PAX6 on cell fate during embryoid body (EB) formation. We found that PAX6 promotes cell migration by directly downregulating miR-124, which is important for the fate transition of migratory cells during gastrulation of embryonic stem (ES) cells. Although several downstream targets of miR-124 have been reported, little is known regarding the upstream regulation of miR-124. When we observed EB formation of iPSCs from Pax6-mutant mice, we found that higher levels of miR-124 in Pax6 homozygous EBs (Homo-EBs) inhibited cell migration, whereas inhibition of miR-124 in Homo-EBs rescued the migratory phenotypes associated with PAX6 deficiency. Further, we found that PAX6 binds to the promoter regions of the miR-124-3 gene and directly represses its expression. Therefore, we propose a novel PAX6-miR-124 pathway that controls ES cell migration. Our findings may provide important information for studies on ES cell differentiation and embryonic development.
