Transcription factor YY1 adversely governs ovarian granulosa cell growth in PCOS by transcription activation-mediated CDKN1C upregulation.
Article in Functional & integrative genomics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and metabolic disease in women of childbearing age, making it imperative to explore more biomarkers for PCOS. Furthermore, previous studies have reported that cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1 C (CDKN1C) might be associated with PCOS progression. However, the molecular mechanism of CDKN1C involved in PCOS is poorly defined.
methodsCDKN1C and Yin-Yang-1 (YY1) expression levels were determined using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot assay. Cell viability, proliferation, cell cycle progression, and cell apoptosis were analyzed using 3-(4, 5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT), 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU), and flow cytometry assays. Caspase 3 activity was examined using a commercial kit. Binding between YY1 and CDKN1C promoter was predicted by JASPAR and verified using Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and dual-luciferase reporter assays.
resultsCDKN1C and YY1 were highly expressed in PCOS granulosa cells (GCs). Furthermore, CDKN1C silencing could promote cell proliferation and cell cycle process and repress cell apoptosis in human ovarian granulosa cell line KGN cells. For mechanistic analysis, YY1 is directly bound to the promoter of CDKN1C and transcriptional-regulated CDKN1C expression.
conclusionYY1-activated CDKN1C might block KGN cell proliferation and induce cell apoptosis, providing a possible therapeutic target for PCOS treatment.
