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

Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing in the seed sequence of microRNAs can shift the microRNAs' targetomes and thus their function. Using public RNA-sequencing data, we identified 35 vasoactive microRNAs that are A-to-I edited. We quantified A-to-I editing of the primary (pri-)microRNAs in vascular fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Nine pri-microRNAs were indeed edited, and editing consistently increased under ischemia. We determined mature microRNA editing for the highest expressed microRNAs, i.e., miR-376a-3p, miR-376c-3p, miR-381-3p, and miR-411-5p. All four mature microRNAs were edited in their seed sequence. We show that both ADAR1 and ADAR2 (adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 and RNA 2) can edit pri-microRNAs in a microRNA-specific manner. MicroRNA editing also increased under ischemia in vivo in a murine hindlimb ischemia model and ex vivo in human veins. For each edited microRNA, we confirmed a shift in targetome. Expression of the edited microRNA targetomes, not the wild-type targetomes, was downregulated under ischemia in vivo. Furthermore, microRNA editing enhanced angiogenesis in vitro and ex vivo. In conclusion, we show that microRNA A-to-I editing is a widespread phenomenon, induced by ischemia. Each editing event results in a novel microRNA with a unique targetome, leading to increased angiogenesis.
