Vincristine induction of mutant and wild-type human multidrug-resistance promoters is cell-type-specific and dose-dependent.

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
To investigate multidrug-resistance gene (MDR1) promoter efficacy and drug inducibility in cells with different multidrug-resistance phenotypes, multidrug-resistant HCT15 and drug-sensitive KM12 human colon carcinoma cell lines were transfected with constructs incorporating the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene, driven by wild-type and point-mutated MDR1 promoter regions. The basal CAT expression level in HCT15 cells was markedly elevated compared to KM12 cells. CAT induction by vincristine was dose-dependent over a broad concentration range (40-500 ng/ml) in both lines. The induction levels were related to the cells' MDR phenotype, with the multidrug-resistant HCT15 cells showing the greater effect. In both cell types, basal and drug-induced CAT expression were significantly enhanced by the point-mutated promoter regions. The findings support the possible exploitation of the MDR1 promoter for construction of drug-inducible and MDR-cell-targeted expression vectors for use in gene therapy.
