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

Cancer cells frequently adapt fundamentally altered metabolism to support tumorigenicity and malignancy. Epigenetic and metabolic networks are closely interactive, in which DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) play important roles. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded latent membrane protein 1 (EBV-LMP1) is closely associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) pathogenesis because it can trigger multiple cell signaling pathways that promote cell transformation, proliferation, immune escape, invasiveness, epigenetic modification, and metabolic reprogramming. Our current findings reveal for the first time that LMP1 not only upregulates DNMT1 expression and activity, but also promotes its mitochondrial translocation. This induces epigenetic silencing of pten and activation of AKT signaling as well as hypermethylation of the mtDNA D-loop region and downregulation of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes, consequently, leading to metabolic reprogramming in NPC. Furthermore, we demonstrate that grifolin, a natural farnesyl phenolic compound originated from higher fungi, is able to attenuate glycolytic flux and recover mitochondrial OXPHOS function by inhibiting DNMT1 expression and activity as well as its mitochondrial retention in NPC cells. Therefore, our work establishes a mechanistic connection between epigenetics and metabolism in EBV-positive NPC and provides further evidence for pathological classification based on CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) in EBV-associated malignancies. In addition, grifolin might be a promising lead compound in the intervention of high-CIMP tumor types. The availability of this natural product could hamper tumor cell metabolic reprogramming by targeting DNMT1.
