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

The p110 Cut homeobox 1 (CUX1) transcription factor regulates genes involved in DNA replication and chromosome segregation. Using a genome-wide-approach, we now demonstrate that CUX1 also modulates the constitutive expression of DNA damage response genes, including ones encoding ATM and ATR, as well as proteins involved in DNA damage-induced activation of, and signaling through, these kinases. Consistently, RNAi knockdown or genetic inactivation of CUX1 reduced ATM/ATR expression and negatively impacted hallmark protective responses mediated by ATM and ATR following exposure to ionizing radiation (IR) and UV, respectively. Specifically, abrogation of CUX1 strongly reduced ATM autophosphorylation after IR, in turn causing substantial decreases in (i) levels of phospho-Chk2 and p53, (ii) γ-H2AX and Rad51 DNA damage foci and (iii) the efficiency of DNA strand break repair. Similarly remarkable reductions in ATR-dependent responses, including phosphorylation of Chk1 and H2AX, were observed post-UV. Finally, multiple cell cycle checkpoints and clonogenic survival were compromised in CUX1 knockdown cells. Our results indicate that CUX1 regulates a transcriptional program that is necessary to mount an efficient response to mutagenic insult. Thus, CUX1 ensures not only the proper duplication and segregation of the genetic material, but also the preservation of its integrity.
