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

We report here a robust, tunable, and reversible transcription control system for endogenous genes. The REMOTE-control system (Reversible Manipulation of Transcription at Endogenous loci) employs enhanced lac repression and tet activation systems. With this approach, we show in mouse embryonic stem cells that endogenous Dnmt1 gene transcription could be up- or downregulated in a tunable, inducible, and reversible manner across nearly two orders of magnitude. Transcriptional repression of Dnmt1 by REMOTE-control was potent enough to cause embryonic lethality in mice, reminiscent of a genetic knockout of Dnmt1 and could substantially suppress intestinal polyp formation when applied to an ApcMin model. Binding by the enhanced lac repressor was sufficiently tight to allow strong attenuation of transcriptional elongation, even at operators located many kilobases downstream of the transcription start site and to produce invariably tight repression of all of the strong viral/mammalian promoters tested. Our approach of targeting tet transcriptional activators to the endogenous Dnmt1 promoter resulted in robust upregulation of this highly expressed housekeeping gene. Our system provides exquisite control of the level, timing, and cell-type specificity of endogenous gene expression, and the potency and versatility of the system will enable high resolution in vivo functional analyses.
