miR-30 promotes thermogenesis and the development of beige fat by targeting RIP140.

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
Members of the microRNA (miR)-30 family have been reported to promote adipogenesis and inhibit osteogenesis, yet their role in the regulation of thermogenesis remains unknown. In this study, we show that miR-30b/c concentrations are greatly increased during adipocyte differentiation and are stimulated by cold exposure or the β-adrenergic receptor activator. Overexpression and knockdown of miR-30b and -30c induced and suppressed, respectively, the expression of thermogenic genes such as UCP1 and Cidea in brown adipocytes. Forced expression of miR-30b/c also significantly increased thermogenic gene expression and mitochondrial respiration in primary adipocytes derived from subcutaneous white adipose tissue, demonstrating a promoting effect of miRNAs on the development of beige fat. In addition, knockdown of miR-30b/c repressed UCP1 expression in brown adipose tissue in vivo. miR-30b/c targets the 3'-untranslated region of the receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140), and overexpression of miR-30b/c significantly reduced RIP140 expression. Consistent with RIP140 as a target of miR-30b/c in regulating thermogenic gene expression, overexpression of RIP140 greatly suppressed the promoting effect of miR-30b/c on the expression of UCP1 and Cidea in brown adipocytes. Taken together, the data from our study identify miR-30b/c as a key regulator of thermogenesis and uncover a new mechanism underlying the regulation of brown adipose tissue function and the development of beige fat.
