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

backgroundEnvironmental exposure to particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) threatens public health, which has caused worldwide concerns. MicroRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) participate in multiple biological regulation. Among them, miR-486 has been reported to be a beneficial molecule for cell survival in various cell types. However, the potential function of miR-486 in PM2.5-induced cytotoxic is still uncertain.

methodsThe expression of miR-486 was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) after A549 cells incubated with PM2.5. Then TUNEL staining and DCFH-DA fluorescence were used to test the apoptosis and ROS generation of A549 cells after exposed to PM2.5 with miR-486 mimic. Western blot was performed to determine the expression of Bax/Bcl2 ratio. In addition, western blot and rescue experiments were conducted to determine the target gene of miR-486.

resultsAfter treated with PM2.5, the expression of miR-486 was decreased. And miR-486 mimic treatment reduced cell apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation induced by PM2.5 exposure. Further studies showed that miR-486 negatively regulated the protein levels of PTEN and FOXO1. Rescue experiments demonstrated that PTEN and FOXO1 mediated the protective effects of miR-486 in PM2.5-treated human lung alveolar epithelial A549 cells.

conclusionsCollectively, our findings identify that miR-486 relieves PM2.5-induced cell injury by targeting PTEN and FOXO1 in human lung alveolar epithelial A549 cells.
