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

The Aurora and Polo-like kinases are central components of mitotic signaling pathways, and recent evidence suggests that substantial cross-talk exists between Aurora A and Plk1. In addition to their validation as novel anticancer agents, small molecule kinase inhibitors are increasingly important tools to help dissect clinically relevant protein phosphorylation networks. However, one major problem associated with kinase inhibitors is their promiscuity toward "off-target" members of the kinome, which makes interpretation of data obtained from complex cellular systems challenging. Additionally, the emergence of inhibitor resistance in patients makes it clear that an understanding of resistance mechanisms is essential to inform drug design. In this study, we exploited structural knowledge of the binding modes of VX-680, an Aurora kinase inhibitor, and BI 2536, a Polo-like kinase inhibitor, to design and evaluate drug-resistant kinase mutants. Using inducible stable human cell lines, we authenticated mitotic targets for both compounds and demonstrated that Aurora A mutants exhibit differential cellular sensitivity toward the inhibitors VX-680 and MLN8054. In addition, we validated Aurora B as an important anti-proliferative target for VX-680 in model human cancer cells. Finally, this chemical genetic approach allowed us to prove that Aurora A activation loop phosphorylation is controlled by a Plk1-mediated pathway in human cells.
