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

The p53 tumor suppressor protein activates transcription and induces cell death. A close homologue of p53, termed p73, is expressed in transactivating (TA) forms that induce growth arrest and apoptosis much like p53. However, the p73 gene contains a second promoter, giving rise to the expression of p73 Delta N, a species of p73 proteins that lack the N-terminal transactivation domain. We show here that the expression of p73 Delta N is induced by p53 on the mRNA and protein level. The promoter that regulates p73 Delta N expression in human cells was cloned and found to be activated by p53, as well as by p73TA, directly through a specific DNA element. The p73 Delta N proteins, that are thereby expressed, bound to p53-responsive promoter DNA, competed with p53 for DNA binding, antagonized the activation of transcription by p53, and prevented p53-induced cell death. In addition, a transcriptional repressor domain was identified within the splicing variant p73 Delta Nalpha. The combination of p73DeltaNalpha and mdm2 antagonized p53 more strongly than either p73Nalpha or mdm2 alone. Blocking endogenous p73 Delta N by a trans dominant fragment, or its removal by siRNA, increased the activity of a p53-responsive promoter in cells that contain a wild type p53 gene. Thus, the induction of p73 Delta N expression by p53 establishes an autoregulatory feedback loop that keeps the trigger of cell death under tight control.
