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

Regulation of sensitivity or resistance for apoptosis by death receptor ligand systems is a key control mechanism in the hematopoietic system. Dysfunctional or deregulated apoptosis can potentially contribute to the development of immune deficiencies, autoimmune diseases, and leukemia. Control of homeostasis starts at the level of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). To this end, we found that CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells are constitutively resistant to CD95-mediated apoptosis and cannot be sensitized during short-term culture to death receptor-mediated apoptosis by cytokines. Detailed analysis of the death machinery revealed that CD34+ cells do not express caspase-8a/b, a crucial constituent of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) of death receptors. Instead, we found a smaller splice variant termed caspase-8L to be present in HSC. Forced expression of caspase-8L using a recombinant lentiviral vector was able to protect hematopoietic cells from death receptor-induced apoptosis even in the presence of caspase-8a/b. Furthermore, we found that caspase-8L is recruited to the DISC after CD95 triggering, thereby preventing CD95 from connecting to the caspase cascade. These results demonstrate an antiapoptotic function of caspase-8L and suggest a critical role as apoptosis regulator in HSC. Similar to CD34+ HSC, stem cell-derived leukemic blasts from AML(M0) patients only expressed caspase-8L. Additionally we found, caspase-8L expression in several AML and ALL samples. Thus, caspase-8L expression might explain constitutive resistance to CD95-mediated apoptosis in CD34+ progenitor cells and might participate in the development of stem cell-derived and other leukemias by providing protection from regulatory apoptosis.
