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

Mutations in the c-kit gene occur in the vast majority of mastocytosis. In adult patients as well as in the cell line derived from mast cell neoplasms, the mutations occur almost exclusively at amino acid 816 within the kinase domain of KIT. Among the downstream effectors of KIT signaling, STAT3 and STAT5 have been shown to be critical for cell proliferation elicited by the KIT-Asp(816) mutant protein. However, little is known about the mechanisms of activation of STAT proteins. In this study, we identify and clarify the contribution of various STAT kinases in two widely used neoplastic mast cell lines, P815 and HMC-1. We show that STAT1, -3, and -5 proteins are activated downstream of the KIT-Asp(816) mutant. All three STAT proteins are located in the nucleus and are phosphorylated on serine residues. KIT-Asp(816) mutant can directly phosphorylate STATs on the activation-specific tyrosine residues in vitro. However, within cells, SRC family kinases and JAKs diversely contribute to tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT proteins downstream of the KIT mutant. Using a panel of inhibitors, we provide evidence for the implication or exclusion of serine/threonine kinases as responsible for serine phosphorylation of STAT1, -3, and -5 in the two cell lines. Finally, we show that only STAT5 is transcriptionally active in these cells. This suggests that the contribution of STAT1 and STAT3 downstream of KIT mutant is independent of their transcription factor function.
