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

Corepressors play an essential role in nuclear receptor-mediated transcriptional repression. In general, corepressors directly bind to nuclear receptors via CoRNR boxes (L/I-X-X-I/V-I) in the absence of ligand and appear to act as scaffolds to further recruit chromatin remodeling complexes to specific target genes. Here, we describe the identification of the multiple LIM domain protein Ajuba as a unique corepressor for a subset of nuclear hormone receptors. Ajuba contains functional nuclear-receptor interacting motifs and selectively interacts with retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and rexinoid receptor (RXRs) subtypes in a ligand-dependent manner. Simultaneous mutation of these motifs abolishes RAR binding and concomitantly leads to loss of repression on RARE reporter genes. P19 cells depleted of Ajuba are highly sensitized to all-trans retinoic acid (atRA)-induced transcription and differentiation. In the absence of atRA, Ajuba can be readily found at the RARE control elements of RAR endogenous target genes. Stimulation of cells with atRA results in the dissociation of Ajuba from these regions. Moreover, we observed that coexpression of the known Ajuba binding partner Prmt5 (protein arginine methyltransferase-5) inhibited the Ajuba/RAR interaction. The high-affinity Ajuba-RAR/RXR interaction site overlaps the region responsible for Ajuba/Prmt5 binding, and thus binding appears to be mutually exclusive, providing a potential mechanism for these observations. Identification of Ajuba as a unique corepressor for nuclear receptors sheds new light on mechanisms for nuclear receptor-mediated repression and provides a unique target for developing more effective therapeutics to modulate this important pathway.
