Lin28B Regulates Angiotensin II-Mediated Let-7c/miR-99a MicroRNA Formation Consequently Affecting Macrophage Polarization and Allergic Inflammation.
Article in Inflammation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Angiotensin-II (Ang-II) receptor plays a role in allergic airway inflammation; however, the underlying mechanism and role of macrophages need better understanding. In the present study, angiotensin-II infusion (1 μg/kg/min) in ovalbumin-induced airway inflammation mice model significantly decreased immune cell infiltration, goblet cell hyperplasia, and eosinophil numbers in lungs. Ang-II infusion increased M1 and decreased M2 macrophage population in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and respective macrophage markers in lung macrophages. Similarly, in vitro Ang-II treatment in murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) induced M1 and reduced M2 macrophage phenotype with enhanced bactericidal activity. Mechanistically, Ang-II inhibits Let-7c and miR-99a expression in BMDMs and in vivo as well. Lentiviral overexpression of Let-7c and miR-99a miRNAs in BMDMs abrogated Ang-II-induced M1 phenotype activation and promoted M2 phenotype, which is governed by targeting TNFα by miR-99a. In lung macrophages, ovalbumin-induced TNFα inhibition was rescued after Ang-II treatment. In BMDMs, knockdown of TNFα abrogated Ang-II-induced M2 to M1 macrophage phenotype switch and associated bactericidal activity. Ang-II affects mature miRNA formation by enhancing Lin28B levels in macrophages in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, Lin28B knockdown prevented Ang-II-mediated inhibition of mature Let-7c/miR-99a miRNA formation, M2 to M1 macrophage phenotype switch, and increased bactericidal activity. Therefore, present study suggests a role of Lin28B in Ang-II-induced Let-7c/miR-99a miRNA formation that consequently affects TNFα production, M1 phenotype activation, and allergic airway inflammation. Graphical Abstract Ovalbumin inhibits LIN28B expression thereby fails to inhibit premature to mature Let-7c/miR-99a miRNA formation. Mature miR-99a miRNA that inhibits TNFα consequently promotes M2 polarization and allergic airway inflammation. While Ang-II induces Lin28B, which inhibits Let-7c/miR-99a miRNA processing and mature miRNA formation, this results in increased TNFα levels that lead to M1 polarization and allergic airway inflammation inhibition.
