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

Mimosine is an effective cell synchronization reagent used for arresting cells in late G1 phase. However, the mechanism underlying mimosine-induced G1 cell cycle arrest remains unclear. Using highly synchronous cell populations, we show here that mimosine blocks S phase entry through ATM activation. HeLa S3 cells are exposed to thymidine for 15 h, released for 9 h by washing out the thymidine, and subsequently treated with 1 mM mimosine for a further 15 h (thymidine → mimosine). In contrast to thymidine-induced S phase arrest, mimosine treatment synchronizes >90% of cells at the G1-S phase boundary by inhibiting the transition of the prereplication complex to the preinitiation complex. Mimosine treatment activates ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM)/ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related (ATR)-mediated checkpoint signaling without inducing DNA damage. Inhibition of ATM activity is found to induce mimosine-arrested cells to enter S phase. In addition, ATM activation by mimosine treatment is mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). These results suggest that, upon mimosine treatment, ATM blocks S phase entry in response to ROS, which prevents replication fork stalling-induced DNA damage.
