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

Fos-related antigen 2 (FRA-2/FOSL2) belongs to the AP-1 transcription factor family. Although FOSL2 has been shown to be involved in diverse physiological and pathological processes, very little is known about the signalling pathways that regulate FOSL2 expression and the mechanisms of FOSL2 function. Here, we show that FOSL2 expression is regulated by TGF-β1 and that FOSL2 is required for TGF-β1-induced migration. We demonstrate that FOSL2 interacts with Smad3 in vitro and in vivo and thus up-regulates TGF-β1-induced signalling responses. Mechanistically, FOSL2 promotes P300 binding to Smad3 and the acetylation of Smad3 by P300. Furthermore, we show that the expression of FOSL2 correlates with activated Smad3 expression in clinical non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) samples. In summary, the present study indicates that FOSL2 facilitates TGF-β1-induced migration by interaction with Smad3 in NSCLC and suggests FOSL2 as a potential therapeutic target for NSCLC.
