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

F-box and WD repeat domain-containing 7 (FBW7) is a SCF-type E3 ubiquitin ligase targeting a multitude of oncoproteins for degradation. Acting as one of the most important tumor suppressors, it is frequently inactivated in various tumors. In this study we aimed to evaluate the relationship of FBW7 with glioma pathology and prognosis, and examine its effect in glioma malignancies and temozolomide (TMZ)-based therapy. Clinical tissues and TCGA database analysis revealed that FBW7 expression was correlated inversely with glioma histology and positively with patient survival time. Lentivirus transfection-induced FBW7 overexpression significantly suppressed proliferation, invasion and migration of U251 and U373 cells, whereas knockdown of FBW7 by targeted shRNA promoted proliferation, invasion and migration of glioma cells. Most importantly, the expression level of FBW7 was found to affect the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of U251 and the TMZ-resistant variant. Combining TMZ with FBW7 overexpression notably increased the cytotoxicity compared to TMZ treatment alone, which was conversely attenuated by FBW7 knockdown. Moreover, flow cytometry (FC) analysis showed overexpression of FBW7, TMZ or the combination-increased proportion of G2/M arrest and the apoptotic rate, whereas FBW7 inhibition reduced G2/M arrest and apoptosis in U251 cells. Finally, mechanistic study found that FBW7 overexpression downregulated Aurora B, Mcl1 and Notch1 levels in a time-dependent pattern and this expressional suppression was independent of TMZ. These findings collectively demonstrate the critical role of FBW7 as a prognostic factor and a potential target to overcome chemoresistance of glioblastoma.
