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

Neurogenin 3 (NGN3) is a key transcription factor in the cell fate determination of endocrine progenitors (EPs) in the developing pancreas. Previous studies have shown that the stability and activity of NGN3 are regulated by phosphorylation. However, the role of NGN3 methylation is poorly understood. Here, we report that protein arginine methyltransferase-1 (PRMT1)-mediated arginine 65 methylation of NGN3 is required for the pancreatic endocrine development of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in vitro. We found that inducible PRMT1-knockout (P-iKO) hESCs did not differentiate from EPs into endocrine cells (ECs) in the presence of doxycycline. Loss of PRMT1 caused NGN3 accumulation in the cytoplasm of EPs and decreased the transcriptional activity of NGN3. We found that PRMT1 specifically methylates NGN3 arginine 65 and that this modification is a prerequisite for ubiquitin-mediated degradation. Our findings demonstrate that arginine 65 methylation of NGN3 is a key molecular switch in hESCs permitting their differentiation into pancreatic ECs.
