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

We have previously identified integrin alpha(v)beta(3) and Fas as receptors for the streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin B (SPE B), and G308S, a mutant of SPE B that binds to Fas only. In the current study we found that after binding to alpha(v)beta(3), SPE B stimulated the tyrosine phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT1. STAT1 tyrosine phosphorylation was inhibited by a JAK2 inhibitor, AG490, short interfering RNA (siRNA) silencing of JAK2, and anti-alpha(V)beta(3) antibody. AG490 also decreased the binding of tyrosine-phosphorylated STAT1 to the procaspase 8 promoter, decreasing procaspase 8 expression, suggesting that SPE B up-regulates procaspase 8 expression via the JAK2/STAT1 pathway. Alternatively, both SPE B and G308S increased STAT1 phosphorylation at serine 727, which was inhibited by anti-Fas antibody, a p38 inhibitor, SB203580, and siRNA silencing of p38. In addition, SPE B and G308S increased binding of serine-phosphorylated STAT1 to the Bax promoter and Bax expression, which was decreased by SB203580. SPE B and G308S-stimulated Bax expression was also inhibited by anti-Fas antibody. These findings suggest that Fas mediate SPE B-induced Bax expression through p38. Silencing of JAK2 or p38 by siRNA blocked procaspase 8 expression, whereas only p38 siRNA decreased Bax expression. Furthermore, JAK2 inhibition and p38 inhibition reduced SPE B-induced apoptosis, but only p38 inhibition blocked G308S-induced apoptosis.
