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

Smac mimetics (SM) have been recently reported to kill cancer cells through the extrinsic apoptosis pathway mediated by autocrine tumor necrosis factor (TNF). SM also activates nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB). However, how SM induces NF-kappaB and the role of NF-kappaB in SM-induced cancer cell death has not been well elucidated. We found that effective blockage of NF-kappaB had no detectable effect on SM compound 3 (SMC3)-induced TNF secretion, suggesting that the induction of TNF by SMC3 is independent of NF-kappaB. Conversely, SMC3-induced NF-kappaB activation was found to be mediated by autocrine TNF because this effect of SMC3 was effectively inhibited when TNF was blocked with either a TNF neutralizing antibody or TNF small interfering RNA. In addition, although SMC3 dramatically reduced c-IAP1 level, it had marginal effect on c-IAP2 expression, TNF-induced RIP modification, NF-kappaB activation, and downstream antiapoptosis NF-kappaB target expression. Furthermore, blocking NF-kappaB by targeting IKKbeta or RelA substantially potentiated SMC3-induced cytotoxicity, suggesting that the NF-kappaB pathway inhibits SMC3-induced apoptosis in cancer cells. Our results show that through TNF autocrine, SM induces an IKKbeta-mediated NF-kappaB activation pathway that protects cancer cells against SM-induced apoptosis, and thus, NF-kappaB blockage could be an effective approach for improving the anticancer value of SM.
