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

Inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) are extensively involved in NFκB signaling pathways. Regulation of c-IAP2 turnover by other proteins was investigated in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells in the present study. When overexpressed, X-linked IAP (XIAP) enhanced expression of ectopic c-IAP2, but not c-IAP1, and endogenous c-IAP2 levels were reduced once XIAP expression was silenced. TNFα stimulation substantially increased c-IAP2 expression, and this upregulation was impaired by suppression of XIAP. Similarly, when XIAP was limiting due to severe hypoxic conditions, c-IAP2 levels were downregulated. These data together indicate that XIAP is an important regulator responsible for stabilization of c-IAP2 levels under different conditions. Protein interactions occur through binding of BIR2 and BIR3 domains of c-IAP2 with the RING finger of XIAP. XIAP inhibition of c-IAP2 auto-degradation was dependent on this physical interaction, and it was independent of XIAP E3 ligase activity. Global c-IAP2 ubiquitination was not affected by XIAP, although c-IAP2 levels were significantly increased. A CARD-RING-containing fragment of c-IAP2 was found to target XIAP for proteasome-independent degradation, but it was unable to sensitize GBM cells to chemo-reagents. The XIAP-stabilized c-IAP2 was found to enhance IκB-α phosphorylation on serines 32 and 36, and to antagonize XIAP-induced increase in mature Smac and Bcl10. Taken together, our data identify a distinctive role of c-IAP2 as stabilizer of XIAP, which is likely involved in regulation of NFκB activation and apoptosis in GBM cells.
