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

unlabelledProstate cancer is one of the leading causes of death among men in the USA.

objectiveIn this study, we investigated the role of atypical protein kinase C-iota (PKC-iota) in androgen independent prostate DU-145 carcinoma cellscompared to transformed non-malignant prostate RWPE-1 cells. MATERIALS AND

methodsWestern blotting and immunoprecipitations demonstrated that PKC-iotaisassociated with cyclin-dependent kinase activating kinase (CAK/Cdk7) in RWPE-1 cells, but not in DU-145 cells.

resultsTreatment of prostate RWPE-1 cells with PKC-iota silencing RNA (siRNA) decreased cell viability,cell-cycle accumulation at G2/M phase, and phosphorylation of Cdk7 and Cdk2. In addition, PKC-iota siRNA treatment caused less phosphorylation ofBad at ser-155, ser-136, and greater Bad/Bcl-xL heterodimerization, leading to apoptosis. In DU-145 cells, PKC-iota was anti-apoptotic and was required for cell survival. Treatment with PKC-iota siRNA blocked increase in cell number, and inhibited G1/S transition by accumulation of cells in G0/G1phase. In addition to cell-cycle arrest, both RWPE-1 and DU-145 cells underwent apoptosis due to mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis cascades, such as release of cytochrome c,activation of caspase-7, and poly (ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP) cleavage.

conclusionOur results suggest that PKC-iota is required for cell survival in both transformed non-malignant prostate RWPE-1 cells and androgen-independent malignant prostate DU-145 cells, whereas suppressing PKC-iota lead to apoptosis in DU-145 prostate cells.
