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

Obesity is characterized by aberrant fat accumulation. However, the intracellular signaling pathway that senses dietary fat and leads to fat storage remains elusive. Here, we have observed that the levels of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) and the related family member HDAC10 are markedly reduced in adipose tissues of obese animals and humans. Mice with adipocyte-specific depletion of Hdac6 exhibited increased fat accumulation and reduced insulin sensitivity. In normal adipocytes, we found that reversal of P300/CBP-associated factor-induced (PCAF-induced) acetylation at K56 on cell death-inducing DFFA-like effector C (CIDEC, also known as FSP27) critically regulated lipid droplet fusion and lipid storage. Importantly, HDAC6 deacetylates CIDEC, leading to destabilization and reduced lipid droplet fusion. Accordingly, we observed elevated levels of CIDEC and its acetylated form in HDAC-deficient adipocytes as well as the adipose tissue of obese animals and humans. Fatty acids (FAs) prevented CIDEC deacetylation by promoting the dissociation of CIDEC from HDAC6, which resulted in increased association of CIDEC with PCAF on the endoplasmic reticulum. Control of CIDEC acetylation required the conversion of FAs to triacylglycerols. Thus, we have revealed a signaling axis that is involved in the coordination of nutrient availability, protein acetylation, and cellular lipid metabolic responses.
