Rapid degradation of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) reveals essential roles in both gene repression and active transcription.

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
Histone Deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) removes acetyl groups from lysine residues on core histones, a critical step in regulating chromatin accessibility. Despite histone deacetylation being an apparently repressive activity, suppression of HDACs causes both up- and downregulation of gene expression. Here we exploited the degradation tag (dTAG) system to rapidly degrade HDAC1 in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) lacking its paralog, HDAC2. The dTAG system allowed specific degradation and removal of HDAC1 in <1 h (100x faster than genetic knockouts). This rapid degradation caused increased histone acetylation in as little as 2 h, with H2BK5 and H2BK11 being the most sensitive. The majority of differentially expressed genes following 2 h of HDAC1 degradation were upregulated (275 genes up versus 15 down) with increased proportions of downregulated genes observed at 6 h (1153 up versus 443 down) and 24 h (1146 up versus 967 down), respectively. Upregulated genes showed increased H2BK5ac and H3K27ac around their transcriptional start site (TSS). In contrast, decreased acetylation and chromatin accessibility of super-enhancers was linked to the most strongly downregulated genes. These findings suggest a paradoxical role for HDAC1 in the maintenance of histone acetylation levels at critical enhancer regions required for the pluripotency-associated gene network.
