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

Deregulation of the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway could compromise genomic integrity in normal cells and reduce cancer cell sensitivity to anticancer treatments. We found that intercellular contact stabilizes histone H2AX and γH2AX (H2AX phosphorylated on Ser-139) by up-regulating N/E-cadherin and γ-catenin. γ-catenin and its DNA-binding partner LEF-1 indirectly increase levels of H2AX by suppressing the promoter of the RNF8 ubiquitin ligase, which decreases levels of H2AX protein under conditions of low intercellular contact. Hyperphosphorylation of DDR proteins is induced by up-regulated H2AX. Constitutive apoptosis is caused in confluent cells but is not further induced by DNA damage. This is conceivably due to insufficient p53 activation because ChIP assay shows that its DNA binding ability is not induced in those cells. Together, our results illustrate a novel mechanism of the regulation of DDR proteins by the cadherin-catenin pathway.
