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

β1 integrin tyrosine phosphorylation by oncogenic kinases, such as Src, has been predicted to induce tumorigenesis by disrupting adhesion and modifying integrin signaling. We directly tested this hypothesis by subjecting mice with "nonphosphorylatable" tyrosine-to-phenylalanine substitutions in the conserved β1 cytoplasmic tail NPxY motifs to a model of cutaneous carcinogenesis in the presence or absence of elevated Src activity. We found that hydrophobic phenylalanine substitutions of both tyrosines diminished the binding of tail-interacting proteins, including talins and kindlins, resulting in reduced β1-mediated adhesion, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) signaling, and epidermal progenitor cell-derived skin tumors. However, increased Src activity drove tumor formation independent of the phenylalanine substitutions by enhancing FAK activity, which in turn maintained the epidermal progenitor state and blocked keratinocyte differentiation. We conclude that a Src/FAK signaling unit inhibits differentiation to promote tumorigenesis downstream of β1 integrin and independent of β1 integrin tyrosine phosphorylation.
