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

Basic cellular activities and coordinated cell actions are governed by intracellular signals, among which the Wnt signaling cascade plays an important role in tissue polarity and cell adhesion or movement through the activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway. As one of the central transcriptional factors, Traf2- and Nck-interacting kinase (TNIK) mediates the transactivation of Wnt target genes and promotes the activity of c-Jun N-terminus kinase (JNK)2 when overexpressed. To further understand the function of TNIK, changes in intracellular signals were detected in colon cancer cell lines using a knockdown strategy. In this study, we found that the short-hairpin RNA-mediated knockdown of TNIK decreased the expressions of CD44, c-MYC and cyclin D1, which was consistent with the results of a TCF-4 reporter assay. Our data showed, for the first time, that the activation of both JNK1 and JNK2 by TNFα could be blocked through TNIK knockdown, which dampened the AP1 luciferase activity accordingly. In addition, adenovirus mediated the downregulation of TNIK-triggered intrinsic apoptosis in SW480 cells by activating caspase-9 and PARP-1. We conclude that TNIK is essential for the activation of both the canonical Wnt pathway and the JNK pathway, and serves as a pro-survival factor.
