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

Coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase (CARM1/PRMT4)-mediated transcriptional coactivation and arginine methylation is known to regulate various tissue-specific differentiation events. Although CARM1 is expressed in the neural crest region in early development, coinciding with early neuronal progenitor specification, the role of CARM1 in any neuronal developmental pathways has been unexplored. Using a specific small-molecule inhibitor of CARM1-mediated H3R17 methylation in human embryonic stem cell line, we find that H3R17 methylation contributes to the maintenance of the astroglial cell population. A network of regulation was observed on the miR92a promoter by which H3R17-responsive Nanog bound to the miR92a promoter decreased upon inhibition, resulting in an abnormal gene expression program influencing the glial lineage. This was also true in zebrafish, in which, with the help of CARM1 inhibitor and CARM1 morpholinos, we show that inhibition of H3R17 methylation results in defective glial cell morphology and a sensory defect in a subpopulation. A gain-of-function strategy in which mCARM1 was introduced in the morpholino-treated embryos exhibited recovery of the sensory defect phenotype. This study thus establishes the functional cooperation between arginine methylation and microRNA expression in the neuronal developmental process, with potential implications in sensory development pathways.
