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

backgroundPrevious studies showed that microRNA-29b (miR-29b) inhibits renal fibrosis. Therefore, miR-29b replacement therapy represents a promising approach for treating renal fibrosis. However, an efficient method of kidney-targeted miRNA delivery has yet to be established. Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors have great potential for clinical application. For kidney-targeted gene delivery, the most suitable AAV serotype has yet to be established. Here, we identified the most suitable AAV serotype for kidney-targeted gene delivery and determined that AAV-mediated miR-29b delivery can suppress renal fibrosis in vivo.

methodTo determine which AAV serotype is suitable for kidney cells, GFP-positive cells were identified by flow cytometry after the infection of rAAV serotype 1-9 vectors containing the EGFP gene. Next, we injected rAAV vectors into the renal pelvis to determine transduction efficiency in vivo. GFP expression was measured seven days after injecting rAAV serotype 1-9 vectors carrying the EGFP gene. Finally, we investigated whether rAAV6-mediated miR-29b delivery can suppress renal fibrosis in UUO mouse model.

resultsWe found that rAAV6 vector is the most suitable for targeting kidney cells regardless of animal species in vitro and rAAV6 is the most suitable vector for kidney-targeted in vivo gene delivery in mice. Intra-renal pelvic injection of rAAV vectors can transduce genes into kidney TECs. Furthermore, rAAV6-mediated miR-29b delivery attenuated renal fibrosis in UUO model by suppressing Snail1 expression.

conclusionOur study has revealed that rAAV6 is the most suitable serotype for kidney-targeted gene delivery and rAAV6-mediated miR-29b delivery into kidney TECs can suppress established renal fibrosis.
