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

Induced expression of the Abcb1 drug transporter often occurs in tumors in response to chemotherapy. The role that epigenetic modifications within the ABCB1 promoter play in Abcb1 expression remains unclear. We selected MCF-7 cells for survival in increasing doses of chemotherapy drugs, and assessed the methylation status of 66 CpG sites within the ABCB1 promoter preceding, accompanying and following the onset of drug resistance. Increased ABCB1 transcript expression coincident with acquisition of resistance to epirubicin or paclitaxel was temporally associated with hypomethylation of the ABCB1 downstream promoter in the absence of gene amplifications or changes in mRNA stability. Treatment of control MCF-7 cells with demethylating and/or acetylating agents increased ABCB1 transcript expression. In addition to broad promoter hypomethylation, dramatic reductions in the methylation of specific CpG sites within the promoter were observed, suggesting that these sites may play a predominant role in transcriptional activation through promoter hypomethylation. Furthermore, our data suggest that allele-specific reductions in ABCB1 promoter methylation regulate promoter usage within paclitaxel-resistant cells. This study provides strong evidence that changes in ABCB1 promoter methylation, ABCB1 promoter usage and ABCB1 transcript expression can be temporally and causally correlated with the acquisition of drug resistance in breast tumor cells.
