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

SRPK2 belongs to a family of serine/arginine (SR) protein-specific kinases (SRPKs), which phosphorylate SR domain-containing proteins in the nuclear speckles and mediate the pre-mRNA splicing. Previous studies have shown that SRPK2 plays a pivotal role in cell proliferation and apoptosis. However, how SRPK2 is regulated during the apoptosis is unclear. Here, we show that SRPK2 is cleaved by caspases at Asp-139 and -403 residues. Its N terminus cleaved product translocates into the nucleus and promotes VP16-induced apoptosis. Akt phosphorylation of SRPK2 prevents its apoptotic cleavage by caspases. 14-3-3β, the binding partner of Akt-phosphorylated SRPK2, further protects it from degradation. Hence, our results suggest that the N-terminal domain of SRPK2 cleaved by caspases translocates into the nucleus, where it promotes chromatin condensation and apoptotic cell death.
