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

backgroundAsthma is a serious respiratory disease that affects the physical and mental health of children. Airway epithelial apoptosis concomitantly mediated by transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) is a crucial component of asthma pathogenesis. LncRNA growth Arrest Specific 5 (GAS5), microRNA-217 (miR-217) and Histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) shown a close relationship with TGF-β1-induced injury of airway epithelial. However, the mechanism underlying TGF-β1-induced injury of airway epithelial in asthma still needs to be investigated.

objectiveWe aimed to investigate the effect and underlying mechanism of GAS5/miR-217/HDAC4 axis in TGF-β1-stimulated bronchial epithelial cells.

methodsThe levels of were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). All protein levels were determined by western blot. Cell viability and apoptosis rate were assessed by Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) and Flow cytometry, respectively. The targeting relationship between miR-217 and GAS5 or HDAC4 was examined with dual-luciferase reporter assay.

resultsTGF-β1, GAS5, HDAC4 were up-regulated, while miR-217 was down-regulated in bronchial mucosal tissues of asthmatic children and TGF-β1-treated BEAS-2B cells. TGF-β1 could reduce cell viability and induce apoptosis, while these effects could be reversed by downregulation of GAS5 or HDAC4. Mechanically, GAS5 acted as a sponge for miR-217 to regulate the expression of HDAC4. Furthermore, overexpression of HDAC4 rescued the effects of GAS5 knockdown on viability and apoptosis of TGF-β1-induced BEAS-2B cells. GAS5 knockdown induced cell viability and hampered cell apoptosis in TGF-β1-stimulated BEAS-2B cells by regulating the miR-217/HDAC4 axis.

conclusionsThe lncRNA GAS5/miR-217/HDAC4 axis played an important role in regulating TGF-β1-induced bronchial epithelial cells injury, thus contributing to asthma.
