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

Galpha(12), the alpha-subunit of G12, which has been referred to as the gep oncogene, stimulates mitogenic pathways in different cell types and readily induces neoplastic transformation of fibroblast cell lines. Recently, we have shown that the oncogenic pathway activated by Galpha(12) involves the receptor tyrosine kinase platelet derived growth factor receptor-alpha (PDGFRalpha) and JAK3. In the present study, we demonstrate that the GTPase-deficient activated mutant of Galpha(12) activates signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) via PDGFRalpha as well as JAK3. Here we show that Galpha(12) stimulates the phosphorylation of STAT3 at both Tyrosine-705 and Serine-727 residues. Studies to delineate the mechanism by which Galpha(12) stimulates STAT3 have indicated that the Tyrosine-705-phosphorylation of STAT3 involves the tyrosine kinases, Janus Kinase-3 as well as Src kinase, whereas the Serine-727 phosphorylation of STAT3 occurs via the receptor tyrosine kinase, PDGFRalpha and phosphatidylinositol 3-OH kinase pathway. Our results also indicate that the coexpression of the dominant negative, DNA binding mutant of STAT3 (STAT3DB) inhibits the foci formation as well as anchorage-independent growth of Galpha(12)QL-transfectants, thereby establishing the critical role of STAT3 in Galpha(12)QL-mediated neoplastic cell growth. The results presented here demonstrate, for the first time, the ability of Galpha(12) to recruit multiple receptor-, nonreceptor-, and Ser/Thr kinases to stimulate STAT3-signaling to promote neoplastic transformation.
