MicroRNA-638 inhibits human airway smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration through targeting cyclin D1 and NOR1.
Review in Journal of cellular physiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
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
Abnormal airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) proliferation and migration contribute significantly to increased ASM mass associated with asthma. MicroRNA (miR)-638 is a primate-specific miRNA that plays important roles in development, DNA damage repair, hematopoiesis, and tumorigenesis. Although it is highly expressed in ASMCs, its function in ASM remodeling remains unknown. In the current study, we found that in response to various mitogenic stimuli, including platelet-derived growth factor-two B chains (PDGF-BB), transforming growth factor β1, and fetal bovine serum, the expression of miR-638, as determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), was significantly downregulated in the proliferative human ASMCs. Both gain- and loss-of-function studies were performed to study the role of miR-638 in ASMC proliferation and migration. We found that adenovirus-mediated miR-638 overexpression markedly inhibits ASMC proliferation and migration, while ablation of miR-638 by anti-miR-638 markedly increases cell proliferation and migration, as determined by WST-8 proliferation and scratch wound assays. Dual-luciferase reporter assay, qRT-PCR, and immunoblot analysis were used to investigate the effects of miR-638 on the expression of the downstream target genes in ASMCs. Our results demonstrated that miR-638 overexpression significantly reduced the expression of downstream target cyclin D1 and NOR1, both of which have been shown to be essential for cell proliferation and migration. Together, our study provides the first in vitro evidence highlighting the antiproliferative and antimigratory roles of miR-638 in human ASMC remodeling and suggests that targeted overexpression of miR-638 in ASMCs may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for preventing ASM hyperplasia associated with asthma.
