TGF-β1/SMAD3 Regulates Programmed Cell Death 5 That Suppresses Cardiac Fibrosis Post-Myocardial Infarction by Inhibiting HDAC3.

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.
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
backgroundProgressive cardiac fibrosis leads to ventricular wall stiffness, cardiac dysfunction, and eventually heart failure, but the underlying mechanism remains unexplored. PDCD5 (programmed cell death 5) ubiquitously expresses in tissues, including the heart; however, the role of PDCD5 in cardiac fibrosis is largely unknown. Therefore, this study aims at exploring the possible role and underlying mechanisms of PDCD5 in the pathogenesis of cardiac fibrosis. METHODS AND
resultsPDCD5 levels were found to be elevated in the serum obtained from patients with cardiac fibrosis, in fibrotic mice heart tissues after myocardial infarction, and in cardiac fibroblasts stimulated by Ang II (angiotensin II)- or TGF-β1 (transforming growth factor-β1). Overexpression of PDCD5 in cardiac fibroblasts or treatment with PDCD5 protein reduced the expression of profibrogenic proteins in response to TGF-β1 stimulation, while knockdown of PDCD5 increased fibrotic responses. It has been demonstrated that SMAD3, a protein that is also known as mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 3, directly upregulated PDCD5 during cardiac fibrosis. Subsequently, the increased PDCD5 promoted HDAC3 (histone deacetylase 3) ubiquitination, thus, inhibiting HDAC3 to reduce fibrotic responses. Fibroblast-specific knock-in of PDCD5 in mice ameliorated cardiac fibrosis after myocardial infarction and enhanced cardiac function, and these protective effects were eliminated by AAV9-mediated HDAC3 overexpression.
conclusionsThe findings of this study demonstrated that PDCD5 is upregulated by SMAD3 during cardiac fibrosis, which subsequently ameliorated progressive fibrosis and cardiac dysfunction through HDAC3 inhibition. Thus, this study suggests that PDCD5 functions as a negative feedback factor on fibrotic signaling pathways and might serve as a potential therapeutic target to suppress the progression of fibrotic responses.
