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

backgroundHighly regulated gene expression program underlies osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), but the regulators in the program are not entirely identified. As enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) have recently emerged as a key regulator in gene expression, we assume a commitment of an eRNA in osteogenesis.

methodsWe performed in silico analysis to identify potential osteogenic microRNA (miRNA) gene predicted to be regulated by super-enhancers (SEs). SE inhibitor treatment and eRNA knocking-down were used to confirm the regulational mechanism of eRNA. miRNA function in osteogenesis was elucidated by miR mimic and inhibitor transfection experiments.

resultsmiR-3129 was found to be located adjacent in a SE (osteoblast-specific SE_46171) specifically activated in osteoblasts by in silico analysis. A RT-quantitative PCR analysis of human bone marrow-derived MSC (hBMSC) cells showed that eRNA_2S was transcribed from the SE with the expression of miR-3129. Knockdown of eRNA_2S by locked nucleic acid as well as treatment of SE inhibitors JQ1 or THZ1 resulted in low miR-3129 levels. Overexpression of miR-3129 promoted hBMSC osteogenesis, while knockdown of miR-3129 inhibited hBMSC osteogenesis. Solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), encoding a bone formation suppressor, was upregulated following miR-3129-5p inhibition and identified as a target gene for miR-3129 during differentiation of hBMSCs into osteoblasts.

conclusionsmiR-3129 expression is regulated by SEs via eRNA_2S and this miRNA promotes hBMSC differentiation into osteoblasts through downregulating the target gene SLC7A11. Thus, the present study uncovers a commitment of an eRNA via a miR-3129/SLC7A11 regulatory pathway during osteogenesis of hBMSCs.
