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

Imatinib induces complete molecular response in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL). However, development of resistance to imatinib has emerged as an important clinical problem for molecular-targeted therapy in CML and CEL. In this study, we have established the imatinib-resistant CEL EOL-1 sub-lines (designated as EOL-1R) by culturing cells with increasing concentrations of imatinib for 6 months. Interestingly, EOL-1R cells showed epigenetic silencing of the phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) gene. Exposure of EOL-1R cells to imatinib failed to dephosphorylate AKT, ERK and STAT5, although PDGFRalpha was effectively inactivated. The forced expression of PTEN negatively regulated these signal pathways and sensitized EOL-1R cells to imatinib. Notably, hypermethylation of the promoter region of the PTEN gene in association with the downregulation of this gene's transcripts was identified in imatinib-resistant leukemia cells isolated from individuals with CEL, CML and Philadelphia-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In addition, anti-epigenetic agents restored PTEN expression, resulting in the sensitization of EOL-1R cells to imatinib. Taken together, epigenetic silence of PTEN is one of the mechanisms that cause drug resistance in individuals with leukemia after exposure to imatinib. Anti-epigenetic agents may be useful for overcoming drug resistance in such a case.
