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

Cytosolic inhibitor of Nrf2 (INrf2) is an adaptor protein that mediates ubiquitination/degradation of NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), a master regulator of cytoprotective gene expression. In this paper, we demonstrate that INrf2 degrades endogenous antiapoptotic B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) protein and controls cellular apoptosis. The DGR domain of INrf2 interacts with the BH2 domain of Bcl-2 and facilitates INrf2:Cul3-Rbx1-mediated ubiquitination of Bcl-2 by the conjugation of ubiquitin molecules to lysine17 of Bcl-2. Further studies showed that INrf2 enhanced etoposide-mediated accumulation of Bax, increased release of cytochrome c from mitochondria, activated caspase-3/7, and enhanced DNA fragmentation and apoptosis. Antioxidants antagonized Bcl-2:INrf2 interaction, led to the release and stabilization of Bcl-2, increased Bcl-2:Bax heterodimers and reduced apoptosis. Moreover, dysfunctional/mutant INrf2 in human lung cancer cells failed to degrade Bcl-2, resulting in decreased etoposide and UV/γ radiation-mediated DNA fragmentation. These data provide the first evidence of INrf2 control of Bcl-2 and apoptotic cell death, with implications in antioxidant protection, survival of cancer cells containing dysfunctional INrf2, and drug resistance.
