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

backgroundUlcerative colitis (UC) is an idiopathic colonic mucosal disease, and its pathogenesis has not been fully understood. Up-frameshift protein 1 (UPF1) is a potential molecule for UC predicted by a computational approach.

aimThe present study aimed to validate the underlying mechanism of UPF1 in UC.

methodsUPF1 expression was detected by qRT-PCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry in dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis in mice. To simulate the intestinal inflammation microenvironment, NCM460 human colonic epithelial cells were exposed to a mixture of inflammatory mediators. The potential mechanism involving TNFR1-NF-κB/MAPKs pathway activation was addressed by western blotting, reporter gene assays, and siRNA (siUPF1) or UPF1-expressing plasmid pENTER-transfected cells.

resultsUPF1 was downregulated in colonic epithelial cells of colitic mice, and in vitro, contrary to the mRNA levels of the associated cytokines enhanced in the UPF1 dysregulation group within stimulatory factors, most relevant cytokines were significantly decreased in UPF1 overexpression group. Mechanistically, the increased expression of tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) was found in NCM460 cells pre-treated with siUPF1, with the activation of IKK/NF-κB and MAPKs pathways, including JNK/AP-1 and P38, but not the ERK1/2 pathway. Moreover, the repression of TNFR1 required the interaction of UPF1 with the promoter.

conclusionUPF1, which negatively regulated the transcription of TNFR1, is a novel factor regulating intestinal inflammation. The downregulation of UPF1 activated the TNFR1-dependent NF-κB/MAPKs pathway, and promoting inflammatory responses in colon might act as a causal role in UC.
