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

The microRNA-30 family plays important roles in maintaining kidney homeostasis. Patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) have reduced miR-30 levels in glomerulus. TGF-β represses miR-30s in kidney podocytes, which leads to cytoskeleton damage and podocyte apoptosis. In this study, we investigated the mechanism by which TGF-β represses miR-30d in vitro. The human miR-30d promoter contains multiple copies of Smad binding element-like sequences. A fragment of 150 base pairs close to the transcription start site was negatively regulated by TGF-β to a similar extent as the 1.8 kb promoter, which was blocked by histone-deacetylase inhibition. TGF-β specifically enhanced HDAC3 expression. Knockdown of HDAC3 by shRNA or a selective inhibitor RGFP966 significantly relieved the repression of miR-30d mRNA and the promoter transcription. TGF-β promoted HDAC3 association with Smad2/3 and NCoR and caused their accumulation at the putative Smad binding site on the miR-30d promoter, which was prohibited by TSA or RGFP966. Furthermore, TSA or RGFP966 treatment reversed TGF-β-induced up-regulation of miR-30d targets Notch1 and p53 and alleviated the podocyte cytoskeleton damage and apoptosis. Taken together, these findings pinpoint that TGF-β represses miR-30d through a Smad2/3-HDAC3-NCoR repression complex and provide novel insights into a potential target for the treatment of podocyte injury-associated glomerulopathies. Key message: MiR-30d promoter is negatively regulated by TGF-β. TGF-β down-regulates miR-30 through Smad signaling pathway. HDAC3 and NCoR are recruited by Smad2/3 to mediate miR-30d repression by TGF-β. HDAC3 acts as a critical player in TGF-β-induced miR-30d repression and podocyte injuries.
