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

Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is an essential post-transcriptional process that produces mature mRNA isoforms by regulating the usage of polyadenylation sites (PASs). APA is involved in lymphocyte activation; however, its role throughout the entire differentiation trajectory remains elusive. Here, we analyzed single-cell 3'-end transcriptome data from healthy subjects to construct a dynamic-APA landscape from hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to terminally differentiated lymphocytes. This analysis covered 19973 cells of 12 clusters from five lineages (B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, natural killer cells, and plasmacytoid dendritic cells). A total of 2364 genes exhibited differential 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) PAS usage, and 3021 genes displayed differential intronic cleavage during lymphoid differentiation. We observed a global trend of 3'UTR shortening during lymphoid differentiation. Nevertheless, specific events of both 3'UTR shortening and lengthening were also identified within each cluster. The APA patterns delineated three differentiation stages: HSPCs, precursor cells, and mature cells. Moreover, we demonstrated that the conversion of naïve T cells to memory T cells was accompanied by dynamic APA in transcription factor-encoding genes (TCF7 and NFATC2IP), immune function-related genes (BCL2, CD5, CD28, GOLT1B, and TMEM59), and protein ubiquitination-related genes (UBE2G1, YPEL5, and SUMO3). These findings expand our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms of APA and facilitate studies on the regulatory role of APA in lymphoid hematopoiesis.
