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

Nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) subunits comprise a family of eukaryotic transcription factors that are critically involved in cell proliferation, inflammation, and apoptosis. Under basal conditions, NF-kappaB subunits are kept under inhibitory regulation by physical interaction with NF-kappaB inhibitors (IkappaB subunits) in the cytosol. Upon stimulation, IkappaB subunits become phosphorylated, ubiquitinated, and subsequently degraded, allowing NF-kappaB subunits to translocate to the nucleus and bind as dimers to kappaB responsive elements of target genes. Previously, we have shown that AEBP1 enhances macrophage inflammatory responsiveness by inducing the expression of various proinflammatory mediators. Herein, we provide evidence suggesting that AEBP1 manifests its proinflammatory function by up-regulating NF-kappaB activity via hampering IkappaBalpha, but not IkappaBbeta, inhibitory function through protein-protein interaction mediated by the discoidin-like domain (DLD) of AEBP1. Such interaction renders IkappaBalpha susceptible to enhanced phosphorylation and degradation, subsequently leading to augmented NF-kappaB activity. Collectively, we propose a novel molecular mechanism whereby NF-kappaB activity is modulated by means of protein-protein interaction involving AEBP1 and IkappaBalpha. Moreover, our study provides a plausible mechanism explaining the differential regulatory functions exhibited by IkappaBalpha and IkappaBbeta in various cell types. We speculate that AEBP1 may serve as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of various chronic inflammatory diseases and cancer.
