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

backgroundExtensive studies have revealed the function and mechanism of lncRNAs in development and differentiation, but the majority have focused on those lncRNAs adjacent to protein-coding genes. In contrast, lncRNAs located in gene deserts are rarely explored. Here, we utilize multiple differentiation systems to dissect the role of a desert lncRNA, HIDEN (human IMP1-associated "desert" definitive endoderm lncRNA), in definitive endoderm differentiation from human pluripotent stem cells.

resultsWe show that desert lncRNAs are highly expressed with cell-stage-specific patterns and conserved subcellular localization during stem cell differentiation. We then focus on the desert lncRNA HIDEN which is upregulated and plays a vital role during human endoderm differentiation. We find depletion of HIDEN by either shRNA or promoter deletion significantly impairs human endoderm differentiation. HIDEN functionally interacts with RNA-binding protein IMP1 (IGF2BP1), which is also required for endoderm differentiation. Loss of HIDEN or IMP1 results in reduced WNT activity, and WNT agonist rescues endoderm differentiation deficiency caused by the depletion of HIDEN or IMP1. Moreover, HIDEN depletion reduces the interaction between IMP1 protein and FZD5 mRNA and causes the destabilization of FZD5 mRNA, which is a WNT receptor and necessary for definitive endoderm differentiation.

conclusionsThese data suggest that desert lncRNA HIDEN facilitates the interaction between IMP1 and FZD5 mRNA, stabilizing FZD5 mRNA which activates WNT signaling and promotes human definitive endoderm differentiation.
