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

Several reports have pointed to the negative involvement of p53 in transcriptional regulation of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 long-terminal repeat (HIV-1 LTR). We recently demonstrated that through their physical interaction, cdk9 phosphorylates p53 on Ser-392, leading to p53 stability and accumulation. As a result, p53 stalled transcriptional elongation of the HIV-1 LTR and significantly reduced HIV-1 replication in primary microglia and astrocytes. Therefore, we sought to identify the mechanisms used by cdk9 to allow this p53 function. Using western blot analysis, we found that cdk9 promotes inhibition and phosphorylation of Mdm2 on Ser-395, thus preventing degradation of p53, a protein that is directly involved in promoting p53 ubiquitination. On the other hand, we showed that cdk9 phosphorylates Pirh2 on Ser-211 and Thr-217 residues through their physical interaction. Phosphorylation of Pirh2 renders it inactive and may contribute to p53-inhibition of transcriptional elongation of the HIV-1 LTR. Hence, we suggest that phosphorylation of Pirh2 may be a novel target for the inhibition of HIV-1 gene expression.
