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 ecotropic viral integration site-1 (EVI-1) is a nuclear transcription factor and has an essential function in the proliferation/maintenance of haematopoietic stem cells. Aberrant expression of EVI-1 has been frequently found in myeloid leukaemia as well as in several solid tumours, and is associated with a poor patient survival. It was recently shown that EVI-1 associates with two different histone methyltransferases (HMTs), SUV39H1 and G9a. However, the functional roles of these HMTs in EVI-1-mediated leukemogenesis remain unclear. In this study, we showed that EVI-1 physically interacts with SUV39H1 and G9a, but not with Set9. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed that EVI-1 colocalizes with these HMTs in nuclei. We also found that the catalytically inactive form of SUV39H1 abrogates the transcriptional repression mediated by EVI-1, suggesting that SUV39H1 is actively involved in EVI-1-mediated transcriptional repression. Furthermore, RNAi-based knockdown of SUV39H1 or G9a in Evi-1-expressing progenitors significantly reduced their colony-forming activity. In contrast, knockdown of these HMTs did not impair bone marrow immortalization by E2A/HLF. These results indicate that EVI-1 forms higher-order complexes with HMTs, and this association has a role in the transcription repression and bone marrow immortalization. Targeting these HMTs may be of therapeutic benefit in the treatment for EVI-1-related haematological malignancies.
