Transcriptional Profiling Reveals Ribosome Biogenesis, Microtubule Dynamics and Expression of Specific lncRNAs to be Part of a Common Response to Cell-Penetrating Peptides.

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
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are short peptides that are able to efficiently penetrate cellular lipid bilayers. Although CPPs have been used as carriers in conjugation with certain cargos to target specific genes and pathways, how rationally designed CPPs per se affect global gene expression has not been investigated. Therefore, following time course treatments with 4 CPPs-penetratin, PepFect14, mtCPP1 and TP10, HeLa cells were transcriptionally profiled by RNA sequencing. Results from these analyses showed a time-dependent response to different CPPs, with specific sets of genes related to ribosome biogenesis, microtubule dynamics and long-noncoding RNAs being differentially expressed compared to untreated controls. By using an image-based high content phenotypic profiling platform we confirmed that differential gene expression in CPP-treated HeLa cells strongly correlates with changes in cellular phenotypes such as increased nucleolar size and dispersed microtubules, compatible with altered ribosome biogenesis and cell growth. Altogether these results suggest that cells respond to different cell penetrating peptides by alteration of specific sets of genes, which are possibly part of the common response to such stimulus.
