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

Cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) is a subunit of the thin filament involved in regulation of heart contraction. Mutated cTnI accounts for most genetic mutations associated with restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). We previously found phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) decreased in RCM mice with cTnIR193H mutation and the mutant cTnI might be involved in PDE4D reduction. This study aims to elucidate a novel role of cTnIR193H mutant as a gene regulator. Overexpression of cTnIR193H mutant in cardiomyocytes showed decrease in PDED4D protein expression, while the enrichment of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) was increased along with decreases in acetylated lysine 4 (acH3K4) and 9 (acH3K9) levels in the PDE4D promoter. HDAC1 overexpression could also downregulate PDE4D via reducing acH3K4 and acH3K9 levels. Co-IP assays showed that cTnIR193H mutant owed increased binding ability to HDAC1 compared with wild type cTnI. EGCG as a HDAC1 inhibitor could diminish the strength of cTnIR193H-HDAC1 interactions and alleviate the reduction in PDE4D expression. Together, our data indicated that cTnIR193H mutant could repress PDE4D expression in cardiomyocytes through HDAC1 associated histone deacetylation modification. Unlike the typical function of cTnI in cytoplasm, our study suggested a novel role of cTnI mutants in nuclei in regulating gene expression.
