Exosome-packaged miR-1246 contributes to bystander DNA damage by targeting LIG4.
Article in British journal of cancer, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 60 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAn increasing number of studies have recently reported that microRNAs packaged in exosomes contribute to multiple biological processes such as cancer progression; however, little is known about their role in the development of radiation-induced bystander effects.
methodsThe exosomes were isolated from the culture medium of BEP2D cells with or without γ-ray irradiation by ultracentrifugation. To monitor DNA damage and repair efficiency, the DNA double-strand break biomarker 53BP1 foci, comet, micronuclei, expression of DNA repair genes and NHEJ repair activity were detected. The miR-1246 targeting sequence of the DNA ligase 4 (LIG4) mRNA 3'UTR was assessed by luciferase reporter vectors.
resultsmiR-1246 was increased in exosomes secreted from 2 Gy-irradiated BEP2D cells and inhibited the proliferation of nonirradiated cells. The miR-1246 mimic, exosomes from irradiated cells, and radiation-conditioned cell culture medium increased the yields of 53BP1 foci, comet tail and micronuclei in nonirradiated cells, and decreased NHEJ efficiency. miR-1246 downregulated LIG4 expression by directly targeting its 3'UTR.
conclusionsOur findings demonstrate that miR-1246 packaged in exosomes could act as a transfer messenger and contribute to DNA damage by directly repressing the LIG4 gene. Exosomal miR-1246 may be a critical predictor of and player in radiation-induced bystander DNA damage.
