tsRNA-3040b accumulates R-loop to regulate Trim35 transcription, which leads to disordered glycolysis and promotes PAECs proliferation.

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
backgroundHypoxia significantly influences the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, the role of transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) produced by nuclease cleavage on PH, particularly their impact on the proliferation of pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAECs), remains unclear.
methodsTo detect tsRNA expression, panoramic RNA display by overcoming RNA modification aborted sequencing (PANDORA-seq) sequencing analysis and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were employed. The formation of R-loops between tsRNA and genomic DNA was confirmed through chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by polymerase chain reaction (ChIP-PCR) and Dot-blot analyses. Mouse PAECs and lung tissue were manipulated to either overexpress or inhibit tsRNA-3040b, followed by assessments of cell proliferation, RT-qPCR, and enzyme activity assays on three key glycolytic rate-limiting enzymes. Molecular docking, immunofluorescence and endogenous coprecipitation were used to demonstrate the colocalization of Trim35 and Wnt3a.
resultsThe expression of tsRNA-Asp-GTC-3040b (termed tsRNA-3040b) was significantly increased in the lung tissue of a hypoxia-induced PH mouse model. By integrating database prediction with RNA sequencing, Trim35 was identified as a downstream target of tsRNA-3040b. ChIP-PCR and Dot-blot analyses using S9.6 indicated that tsRNA-3040b promoted R-loops in the genomic DNA of Trim35, thus inhibiting its transcription. Further investigation revealed that the Trim35 affected glucose metabolism levels through ubiquitinated substrate Wnt3a. Ultimately, it was elucidated that the tsRNA-3040b-Trim35-Wnt3a-glucose metabolism signaling pathway exacerbated the progression of PH.
conclusionsThis study highlights the role of tsRNA-3040b in promoting PH by influencing glucose metabolism processes. These results offer a new approach to treating PH and suggest that tsRNA-3040b could serve as a potential target for diagnosing PH and related conditions.
