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

Previously constructed Swiss mouse 3T3 fibroblasts producing polyomavirus large T antigen after addition of dexamethasone were used to study the transcriptional activation by the viral protein of five genes coding for enzymes involved in DNA synthesis and precursor production, namely, dihydrofolate reductase, thymidine kinase, thymidylate synthase, DNA polymerase alpha, and proliferating-cell nuclear antigen. It was found that all these genes, whose expression is stimulated at the G1/S boundary of the cell cycle after growth stimulation by serum addition, are coordinately trans activated when T antigen is induced in cells previously growth arrested by serum withdrawal. Cell lines carrying the information for a mutant form of large T antigen, in which a glutamic acid residue in the binding site for the retinoblastoma protein was changed into aspartic acid, were constructed to test the involvement of an interaction of T antigen with the retinoblastoma protein in this reaction. It was found that the mutated T protein is incapable of stimulating transcription of any one of the genes. The promoter of three of the genes (dihydrofolate reductase, thymidine kinase, and DNA polymerase alpha) unequivocally carries binding sites for transcription factor E2F, suggesting that complexes forming with this growth- and cell cycle-regulating transcription factor are the targets for T antigen. Although there is so far no evidence that thymidylate synthase and proliferating cell nuclear antigen are regulated via E2F, our data indicate that the retinoblastoma protein still is involved in the control of these genes. mRNA for E2F itself increases in amount at the G1/S border in serum-stimulated cells but not during polyomavirus T antigen-induced transcriptional activation of DNA synthesis enzymes in arrested cells.
