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

MAIN

conclusionThe RgTyDCs possess typical decarboxylase functional activity in vitro and in vivo and participate in acteoside biosynthesis in R. glutinosa, positively controlling its production via activated acteoside/tyrosine-derived pathways. Acteoside is an important ingredient in Rehmannia glutinosa and an active natural component that contributes to human health. Tyrosine decarboxylase (TyDC) is thought to play an important role in acteoside biosynthesis. Several plant TyDC family genes have been functionally characterized and shown to play roles in some bioactive metabolites' biosynthesis by mediating the decarboxylation of L-tyrosine and L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA); however, one TyDC (named RgTyDC1) in R. glutinosa has been identified to date, but the family genes that contribute to acteoside biosynthesis remain largely characterized. Here, by in silico and experimental analyses, we isolated and identified three RgTyDCs (RgTyDC2 to RgTyDC4) in this species; these genes' sequences showed 50.92-82.55% identity, included highly conserved domains with homologues in other plants, classified into two subsets, and encoded proteins that localized to the cytosol. Enzyme kinetic analyses of RgTyDC2 and RgTyDC4 indicated that they both efficiently catalysed L-tyrosine and L-dopa. The overexpression of RgTyDC2 and RgTyDC4 in R. glutinosa, which was associated with enhanced TyDC activity, significantly increased tyramine and dopamine contents, which was positively correlated with improved acteoside production; moreover, the overexpression of RgTyDCs led to upregulated expression of some other genes-related to acteoside biosynthesis. This result suggested that the overexpression of RgTyDCs can positively activate the molecular networks of acteoside pathways, enhancing the accumulation of tyramine and dopamine, and promoting end-product acteoside biosynthesis. Our findings provide an evidence that RgTyDCs play vital molecular roles in acteoside biosynthesis pathways, contributing to the increase in acteoside yield in R. glutinosa.
