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

Loss of JunB has been observed in human leukemia and lymphoma, but it remains unknown, whether this loss is relevant to disease progression. Here, we investigated the consequences of JunB deficiency using Abelson-induced B-lymphoid leukemia as a model system. Mice deficient in JunB expression succumbed to Abelson-induced leukemia with increased incidence and significantly reduced latency. Similarly, bcr/abl p185-transformed JunB-deficient (junB(Delta/Delta)) cells induced leukemia in RAG2(-/-) mice displaying a more malignant phenotype. These observations indicated that cell intrinsic effects within the junB(Delta/Delta) tumor cells accounted for the accelerated leukemia development. Indeed, explantated bcr/abl p185 transformed junB(Delta/Delta) cells proliferated faster than the control cells. The proliferative advantage emerged slowly after the initial transformation process and was associated with increased expression levels of the cell cycle kinase cdk6 and with decreased levels of the cell cycle inhibitor p16(INK4a). These alterations were due to irreversible reprogramming of the cell, because - once established - accelerated disease induced by junB(Delta/Delta) cells was not reverted by re-introducing JunB. Consistent with this observation, we found that the p16 promoter was methylated. Thus, JunB functions as a gatekeeper during tumor evolution. In its absence, transformed leukemic cells acquire an enhanced proliferative capacity, which presages a more malignant disease.
