Novel function of U7 snRNA in the repression of HERV1/LTR12s and lincRNAs in human cells.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
U7 snRNA is part of the U7 snRNP complex, required for the 3' end processing of replication-dependent histone pre-mRNAs in S phase of the cell cycle. Here, we show that U7 snRNA plays another function in inhibiting the expression of a subset of long terminal repeats of human endogenous retroviruses (HERV1/LTR12s) and LTR12-containing long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs), both bearing sequence motifs that perfectly match the 5' end of U7 snRNA. We demonstrate that U7 snRNA inhibits LTR12 and lincRNA transcription and propose a mechanism in which U7 snRNA hampers the binding/activity of the NF-Y transcription factor to CCAAT motifs within LTR12 elements. Thereby, U7 snRNA plays a protective role in maintaining the silencing of deleterious genetic elements in selected types of cells.
