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

MicroRNA (miR)-128-3p is a brain-enriched miRNA that participates in the regulation of neural cell differentiation and the protection of neurons, but the mechanisms by which miR-128-3p regulates its target and downstream genes to influence cell fate from adult stem cells are poorly understood. In this study, we show down-regulation of miR-128-3p during all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-induced neurogenic differentiation from amniotic epithelial cells (AECs). We investigated miR-128-3p in both the Notch pathway and in the expression of neuron-specific genes predicted to be involved in miR-128-3p signaling to elucidate its role in the genetic regulation of downstream neurogenic differentiation. Our results demonstrate that miR-128-3p is a negative regulator for the transcription of the neuron-specific genes β III-tubulin, neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and polysialic acid-neural cell adhesion molecule (PSA-NCAM) via targeting Jagged 1 to inhibit activation of the Notch signaling pathway. We also used bioinformatics algorithms to screen for miR-128-3p interactions with long non-coding (lnc) RNA and circular RNA as competing endogenous RNAs to further elucidate underlying down-regulated molecular mechanisms. The lncRNA maternally expressed 3 is up-regulated by the ATRA/cAMP/CREB pathway, and it, in turn, is directly down-regulated by miR-128-3p to increase the amount of neuron differentiation. Endogenous miRNAs are, therefore, involved in neurogenic differentiation from AECs and should be considered during the development of effective cell transplant therapies for the treatment of neurodegenerative disease.
