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

In vitro induced human regulatory T cells (iTregs) have in vivo therapeutic utility. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of approximately 22-nucleotide non-coding RNAs that are processed from longer precursors by the RNases Drosha and Dicer. miRNAs regulate post-transcriptional protein expression through messenger RNA destabilization or translational silencing; miR-142-3p regulates natural Treg function through autophagy. We hypothesized that this miRNA may also have an iTreg regulation function. Antagomir-mediated knockdown of miR-142-3p improved Foxp3 (forkhead box P3) expression, regulatory function, cytokine expression, and apoptosis of iTregs in vitro, with or without inflammatory cytokine stimulation. miR-142-3p knockdown increased autophagy-related protein 16-1-mediated autophagy. Target prediction and luciferase assay results indicated that miR-142-3p binds directly to lysine demethylase 6A (KDM6A), which resulted in demethylation of H3K27me3 and in turn upregulated expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2. Based on these results, we propose a novel strategy that uses knockdown of miR-142-3p to enhance anti-apoptotic ability and function of iTregs by increasing KDM6A and Bcl-2 expression. This approach might be used as a treatment to control established chronic immune-mediated autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
