Distinct proliferative and neuronal programmes of chromatin binding and gene activation by ASCL1 are cell cycle stage-specific.

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
ASCL1 is a potent proneural factor with paradoxical functions during development, promoting both progenitor pool expansion and neuronal differentiation. How a single factor executes and switches between these potentially opposing functions remains to be understood. Using human neuroblastoma cells as a model system, we show that ASCL1 exhibits cell cycle phase-dependent chromatin binding patterns. In cycling cells, S/G2/M phase-enriched binding occurs at promoters of transcribed pro-mitotic genes, while G1 phase-enriched binding of ASCL1 is associated with the priming of pro-neuronal enhancer loci. Prolonged G1 arrest is further required to activate these ASCL1-bound and primed neuronal enhancers to drive neuronal differentiation. Thus, we reveal that the same transcription factor can control distinct transcriptional programmes at different cell cycle stages, and demonstrate how lengthening of G1 allows engagement of a differentiation programme by turning unproductive factor binding into productive interactions.
