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

Menin is an enigmatic protein that displays unique ability to either suppress or promote tumorigenesis in a context-dependent manner. The role for Menin to promote oncogenic functions has been largely attributed to its essential role in forming the MLL methyltransferase complex, which mediates H3K4me3. Here, we identify an unexpected role of Menin in enhancing the transactivity of oncogene MYC in a way independent of H3K4me3 activity. Intriguingly, we find that Menin interacts directly with the TAD domain of MYC and co-localizes with MYC to E-Box to enhance the transcription of MYC target genes in a P-TEFb-dependent manner. We further demonstrate that, by transcriptionally promoting the expression of MYC target genes in cancer cells, Menin stimulates cell proliferation and cellular metabolism both in vitro and in vivo. Our results uncover a previously unappreciated mechanism by which Menin functions as an oncogenic regulatory factor that is critical for MYC-mediated gene transcription.
