The Wnt/β-Catenin/LEF1 Pathway Promotes Cell Proliferation at Least in Part Through Direct Upregulation of miR-17-92 Cluster.
Article in Frontiers in genetics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The miR-17-92 cluster is involved in animal development and homeostasis, and its dysregulation leads to human diseases such as cancer. In the present study, we investigated the functional link between miR-17-92 cluster and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in ICP2 and DF1 cells. We demonstrated that ectopic expression of either LEF1 or β-catenin increased the promoter activity of the miR-17-92 cluster host gene (MIR17HG) and combined ectopic expression of LEF1 and β-catenin further enhanced the promoter activity; while knockdown of either LEF1 or β-catenin reduced the MIR17HG promoter activity. Both LEF1 and β-catenin could directly bind to the MIR17HG promoter. Furthermore, we demonstrated that low doses of lithium chloride (LiCl), an activator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, increased MIR17HG promoter activity and the endogenous expression of the miR-17-92 cluster, while high doses of LiCl had the opposite effects. Treatment with XAV-939, an inactivator of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, reduced the endogenous expression of miR-17-92 cluster. Finally, we found that low doses of LiCl promoted the proliferation of ICP2 and DF1 cells, while high doses of LiCl inhibited the proliferation of ICP2 and DF1 cells. Taken together, our results reveal that MIR17HG is a target of LEF1 and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and suggest that the miR-17-92 cluster may, at least in part, mediate the proliferation-promoting effect of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in cell proliferation.
