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

Because of their genetically determined capacity to respond to pro-inflammatory stimuli, keratinocytes have a crucial role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Upon IFN-γ and TNF-α exposure, psoriatic keratinocytes express exaggerated levels of inflammatory mediators, and show aberrant hyperproliferation and terminal differentiation. The thickening of psoriasic skin also results from a peculiar resistance of keratinocytes to cytokine-induced apoptosis. In this study, we investigated on the molecular mechanisms concurring to the resistance of psoriatic keratinocytes to cell death, focusing on the role having suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)1 and SOCS3, two molecules abundantly expressed in IFN-γ/TNF-α-activated psoriatic keratinocytes, in sustaining anti-apoptotic pathways. We found that SOCS1 and SOCS3 suppress cytokine-induced apoptosis by sustaining the activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway in keratinocytes. The latter determines the activation of the anti-apoptotic NF-κB cascade and, in parallel, the inhibition of the pro-apoptotic BAD function in keratinocytes. For the first time, we report that phosphorylated AKT and phosphorylated BAD are strongly expressed in lesional psoriatic skin, compared with healthy or not lesional skin, and they strictly correlate to the high expression of SOCS1 and SOCS3 molecules in the psoriatic epidermis. Finally, the depletion of SOCS1 and SOCS3, as well as the chemical inactivation of PI3K activity in psoriatic keratinocytes, definitively unveils the role of PI3K/AKT cascade on the resistance of diseased keratinocytes to apoptosis.
