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

aimTo investigate the anticancer property and possible mechanism of action of a novel sugar-substituted thalidomide derivative (STA-35) on HL-60 cells in vitro.

methodsTNF-alpha-induced NF-kappaB activation was determined using a reporter gene assay. The MTT assay was used to measure cytotoxicity of the compound. The appearance of apoptotic Sub-G1 cells was detected by flow cytometry analysis. PARP cleavage and protein expression of NF-kappaB p65 and its inhibitor IkappaB were viewed by Western blotting.

resultsTA-35 (1-20 micromol/L) suppressed TNF-alpha-induced NF-kappaB activation in transfected cells (HEK293/pNiFty-SEAP) in a dose- (1-20 micromol/L) and time-dependent (0-48 h) manner. It was also shown that STA-35 exerted a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on HL-60 cell proliferation with an IC(50) value of 9.05 micromol/L. In addition, STA-35 induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells, as indicated by the appearance of a Sub-G1 peak in the cell cycle distribution, as well as poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) cleavage. Subsequently, both NF-kappaB p65 and its inhibitor IkappaB gradually accumulated in cytoplasmic extracts in a dose- and time-dependent manner, indicating the blockage of NF-kappaB translocation induced by TNF-alpha from the cytoplasm to the nucleus.

conclusionA novel sugar-substituted thalidomide derivative, STA-35, is potent toward HL-60 cells in vitro and induces apoptosis by the suppression of NF-kappaB activation.
