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

NF-κB is a major regulator of gene transcription involved in immune, inflammation, apoptosis and stress responses. However, the regulation of NF-κB is not completely understood. Here, we report that the N-Myc and STATs Interactor (NMI), an IFN-inducible protein, is an important negative regulator of NF-κB activity. We found that NMI negatively regulates TNF-α-induced IL-6 and IL-1β production in HeLa cells. Overexpression of NMI inhibits NF-κB transcriptional activity, in contrast, depletion of NMI by shRNA increases NF-κB transcriptional activity. Mechanistically, NMI associates with NF-κB/p65 and inhibits NF-κB/p65 nuclear translocation and thereby negatively regulates NF-κB/p65 transcriptional activity. Taken together, our results demonstrate that NMI modulates the NF-κB signaling pathway by sequestering NF-κB/p65 in the cytoplasm, resulting in reduced IL-6 and IL-1β production after TNF-α stimulation. Treatment with IFNα in the presence of NMI leads to increased apoptosis in tumor cells. These findings reveal a novel mechanism by which NMI regulates NF-κB activity.
