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 retinoblastoma tumor-suppressor protein (pRb) is known to induce growth arrest and cellular differentiation. The molecular determinants of pRb function include protein-protein interactions and post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation. Recently, the co-activator p300 was found to acetylate pRb. The biological significance of pRb acetylation, however, remains unclear. In the present study, we provide evidence that pRb undergoes acetylation upon cellular differentiation, including skeletal myogenesis. In addition to p300, the p300-Associated Factor (P/CAF) can mediate pRb acetylation as pRb interacts directly with the acetyltransferase domain of P/CAF in vitro and can associate with P/CAF in differentiated cells. Significantly, by using a C terminal acetylation-impaired mutant of pRb, we reveal that acetylation does not affect pRb-dependent growth arrest or the repression of E2F transcriptional activity. Instead, acetylation is required for pRb-mediated terminal cell cycle exit and the induction of late myogenic gene expression. Based on these results, we propose that acetylation regulates the differentiation-specific function(s) of pRb.
