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

BACKGROUND/

aimsRetinoid X receptor alpha (RXRalpha), the heterodimeric partner for multiple nuclear receptors (NRs), was shown to be an essential target for inflammation-induced cJun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling in vitro. This study aimed to explore the role of hepatic JNK signaling and its effects on nuclear RXRalpha levels downstream of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) in vivo.

methodsEffects of IL-1beta on hepatic NR-dependent gene expression, nuclear RXRalpha levels, and roles for individual JNK isoforms were studied in wild-type, Jnk1(-/-), and Jnk2(-/-) mice and in primary hepatocytes of each genotype.

resultsIL-1beta administration showed a time-dependent reduction in expression of the hepatic NR-dependent genes Ntcp, Cyp7a1, Cyp8b1, Abcg5, Mrp2, and Mrp3. IL-1beta treatment for 1h activated JNK and resulted in both post-translational modification and reduction of nuclear RXRalpha. In wild-type primary hepatocytes, IL-1beta modified and reduced nuclear RXRalpha levels time dependently, which was prevented by chemical inhibition of JNK as well as by inhibition of proteasomal degradation. Individual absence of either JNK1 or JNK2 did not significantly influence the reduction or modification of hepatic nuclear RXRalpha by IL-1beta both in vivo and in primary hepatocytes.

conclusionsFunctional redundancy exists for JNK1 and JNK2 in IL-1beta-mediated alterations of hepatic nuclear RXRalpha levels, stressing the importance of this pathway in mediating the hepatic response to inflammation.
