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

objectiveHedgehog (HH) signaling has recently been associated with cartilage degradation in osteoarthritis (OA). Because interleukin-1β (IL-1β) has been implicated as a principal instigator of OA, we sought to determine whether IL-1β induces the expression of sonic HH (SHH) and its regulation by microRNAs (miRNAs) in human chondrocytes.

methodsExpression of SHH protein in human OA cartilage and in an animal model of OA was determined by immunohistochemical analysis and immunofluorescence analysis, respectively. Gene and protein expression in IL-1β- or SHH-stimulated OA chondrocytes was determined by TaqMan assays and Western blotting, respectively. The effect of overexpression of miRNA-602 (miR-602) and miR-608 or their antagomirs on SHH expression was evaluated by transient transfection of human chondrocytes and HEK 293 cells. The role of signaling pathways was evaluated using small molecule inhibitors. Binding of miRNAs with the putative seed sequence in SHH messenger RNA (mRNA) was validated using a luciferase reporter assay.

resultsExpression of SHH, patched 1, Gli-1, HH-interacting protein, matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13), and Colα1(X) was high in damaged OA cartilage. In damaged cartilage and in IL-1β-stimulated OA chondrocytes, expression of SHH was inversely correlated with expression of miR-608. Cotransfection of OA chondrocytes with miR-608 or miR-602 mimic inhibited reporter activity, and mutation of the miRNA seed sequences abolished the repression of reporter activity. Overexpression of miR-602 or miR-608 inhibited the expression of SHH mRNA and protein, and this was abrogated by antagomirs. Stimulation with recombinant human SHH protein up-regulated MMP-13 expression, and inhibition of HH signaling blocked MMP-13 expression in OA chondrocytes.

conclusionMiR-602 and miR-608 are important posttranscription regulators of SHH expression in OA chondrocytes, and their suppression by IL-1β may contribute to the enhanced expression of SHH and MMP-13 in OA.
