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 extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway is an important signalling pathway that regulates a large number of cellular processes, including proliferation, differentiation and gene expression. Hyperosmotic stress activates the ERK pathway, whereas little is known about the regulatory mechanisms and physiological functions of ERK activation in hyperosmotic response. Here, we show that MAPK/ERK kinase kinase 2 (MEKK2), a member of the MAPKKK family, mediated the specific and transient activation of ERK, which was required for the induction of aquaporin 1 (AQP1) and AQP5 gene expression in response to hyperosmotic stress. Moreover, we identified the E3 ubiquitin ligase carboxyl terminus of Hsc70-interacting protein (CHIP) as a binding partner of MEKK2. Depletion of CHIP by small-interference RNA or gene targeting attenuated the degradation of MEKK2 and prolonged the ERK activity. Interestingly, hyperosmolality-induced gene expression of AQP1 and AQP5 was suppressed by CHIP depletion and was reversed by inhibition of the prolonged phase of ERK activity. These findings show that transient activation of the ERK pathway, which depends not only on MEKK2 activation, but also on CHIP-dependent MEKK2 degradation, is crucial for proper gene expression in hyperosmotic stress response.
