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

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in many aspects of cellular processes, including the antiviral immune response. To identify influenza A virus (IAV)-related lncRNAs, we performed RNA deep sequencing to compare the profiles of lncRNAs in A549 and HEK293T cells with or without IAV infection. We identified an IAV-upregulated lncRNA named lnc-ISG20 because it shares most of its sequence with ISG20. We found that lnc-ISG20 is an interferon-stimulated gene similar to ISG20. Overexpression of lnc-ISG20 inhibited IAV replication, while lnc-ISG20 knockdown favored viral replication, suggesting that lnc-ISG20 is inhibitory to IAV replication. Further study indicated that overexpression of lnc-ISG20 enhances ISG20 protein levels, while knockdown of lnc-ISG20 reduces ISG20 protein levels in A549 cells induced with poly(I·C) and Sendai virus. We demonstrated that lnc-ISG20 inhibits IAV replication in an ISG20-dependent manner. As lnc-ISG20 did not affect the mRNA level of ISG20, we postulated that lnc-ISG20 may function as endogenous RNA competing with ISG20 to enhance its translation. Indeed, we identified that microRNA 326 (miR-326) is a mutual microRNA for both ISG20 and lnc-ISG20 that targets the 3' untranslated region of ISG20 mRNA to inhibit its translation. We confirmed that lnc-ISG20 can bind miR-326, which in turn decreased the amount of miR-326 bound to ISG20 mRNA. In conclusion, we identified that the IAV-upregulated lnc-ISG20 is a novel interferon-stimulated gene that elicits its inhibitory effect on IAV replication by enhancing ISG20 expression. We demonstrated that lnc-ISG20 functions as a competitive endogenous RNA to bind miR-326 to reduce its inhibition of ISG20 translation. Our results revealed the mechanism by which lnc-ISG20 inhibits IAV replication.
