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

A cytokine-dependent (FL5.12), drug-sensitive, p53 wild type (WT) and a doxorubicin-resistant derivative line (FL/Doxo) were used to determine the mechanisms that could result in drug resistance of early hematopoietic precursor cells. Drug resistance was associated with decreased p53 induction after doxorubicin treatment, which was due to a higher level of proteasomal degradation of p53. Dominant-negative (DN) p53 genes increased the resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs, MDM-2 and MEK inhibitors, further substantiating the role of p53 in therapeutic sensitivity. The involvement of signal transduction and apoptotic pathways was examined, as drug resistance did not appear to be due to increased drug efflux. Drug-resistant FL/Doxo cells had higher levels of activated Raf/MEK/ERK signaling and decreased induction of apoptosis when cultured in the presence of doxorubicin than drug-sensitive FL5.12 cells. Introduction of DN MEK1 increased drug sensitivity, whereas constitutively active (CA) MEK1 or conditionally active BRAF augmented resistance, documenting the importance of the Raf/MEK/ERK pathway in drug resistance. MEK inhibitors synergized with chemotherapeutic drugs to reduce the IC(50). Thus the p53 and Raf/MEK/ERK pathways play key roles in drug sensitivity. Targeting these pathways may be effective in certain drug-resistant leukemias that are WT at p53.
