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 activating protein 1 (AP-1) family of regulatory proteins is characterized as immediate-early inducible transcription factors which were shown to be activated by a variety of stress-related stimuli and to be involved in numerous biological processes, including cellular and viral gene expression, cell proliferation, differentiation, and tumorigenesis. We have recently demonstrated the involvement of the AP-1 family members c-Jun and c-Fos in transcriptional regulation of the human polyomavirus, JC virus (JCV), genome. Here, we further examined their role in JCV gene regulation and replication through their physical and functional interaction with JCV early regulatory protein large T antigen (T-Ag). Transfection and replication studies indicated that c-Jun and c-Fos can significantly diminish T-Ag-mediated JCV gene transcription and replication. Affinity chromatography and coimmunoprecipitation assays demonstrated that c-Jun and T-Ag physically interact with each other. Results from band shift assays showed that the binding efficiency of c-Jun to the AP-1 site was reduced in the presence of T-Ag. In addition, we have mapped, through the use of a series of deletion mutants, the regions of these proteins which are important for their interaction. While the c-Jun interaction domain of T-Ag is localized to the middle portion of the protein, the T-Ag interacting domain of c-Jun maps to its basic-DNA binding region. Results of transient-transfection assays with various c-Jun mutants and T-Ag expression constructs further confirm the specificity of the functional interaction between c-Jun and T-Ag. Taken together, these data demonstrate that immediate-early inducible transcription factors c-Jun and c-Fos physically and functionally interact with JCV major early regulatory protein large T-Ag and that this interaction modulates JCV transcription and replication in glial cells.
