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

Retinoid X receptor α [RXRα; nuclear receptor (NR)2B1] is a crucial regulator in the expression of a broad array of hepatic genes under both normal and pathologic conditions. During inflammation, RXRα undergoes rapid post-translational modifications, including c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)-mediated phosphorylation, which correlates with a reduction in RXRα function. A small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) acceptor site was recently described in human RXRα, yet the contributors, regulators, and consequences of SUMO-RXRα are not well understood. Inflammation and other stressors alter nuclear receptor function in liver and induce SUMOylation of several NRs as part of proinflammatory gene regulation, but linkages between these two pathways in liver, or for RXRα directly, remain unexplored. We sought to determine if inflammation induces SUMOylation of RXRα in human liver-derived (HuH-7) cells. Lipopolysaccharide, interleukin-1β, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) rapidly and substantially stimulated SUMOylation of RXRα. Two RXRα ligands, 9-cis retinoic acid (9cRA) and LG268, induced SUMOylation of RXRα, whereas both inflammation- and ligand-induced SUMOylation of RXRα require the K108 residue. Pretreatment with 1,9-pyrazoloanthrone (SP600125), a potent JNK inhibitor, abrogates TNFα- and 9cRA-stimulated RXRα SUMOylation. Pretreatment with SUMOylation inhibitors markedly augmented basal expression of several RXRα-regulated hepatobiliary genes. These results indicate that inflammatory signaling pathways rapidly induce SUMOylation of RXRα, adding to the repertoire of RXRα molecular species in the hepatocyte that respond to inflammation. SUMOylation, a newly described post-translational modification of RXRα, appears to contribute to the inflammation-induced reduction of RXRα-regulated gene expression in the liver that affects core hepatic functions, including hepatobiliary transport.
