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 TRK-T3 oncoprotein, isolated from a human papillary thyroid tumor, arises from the fusion between the N-terminal domain of the TFG gene and the tyrosine kinase domain of the NTRK1 receptor. The 68 kDa TRK-T3 oncoprotein displays a constitutive tyrosine kinase activity resulting in its capability to transform NIH3T3 cells. The TFG portion of TRK-T3 contains a coiled-coil domain, which mediates protein oligomerization essential for the oncogene constitutive activation, and several consensus sites for protein interaction. In this study, we investigate the role of TFG sequences outside the coiled-coil domain on TRK-T3 activation, We constructed four mutants carrying different deletions of TFG sequences and expressed them in mammalian cells. By performing biochemical and biological assays we demonstrated that all the deleted regions are required for TRK-T3 activation, as they are involved in different mechanisms such as protein processing, formation of stable and/or functional complexes, and possible interaction with other proteins. By constructing site-specific mutants, we demonstrated a crucial role for a PB1 domain and a considerable contribution of an SH2-binding motif in TRK-T3 oncogenic activation. This work establishes an important role for TFG sequences outside the coiled-coil domain in the activation of the thyroid TRK-T3 oncogene.
