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

Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), also known as Hunter syndrome, is a devastating progressive disease caused by mutations in the iduronate 2-sulfatase (IDS) gene. IDS is one of the sulfatase enzymes required for lysosomal degradation of glycosaminoglycans. Mutant proteins linked to diseases are often prone to misfolding. These misfolded proteins accumulate in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and are degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (ER-associated degradation (ERAD)). The decreased enzyme activities of IDS mutants may be due to accelerated degradation by ERAD. However, intracellular dynamics including degradation of IDS mutants is unexplored. In this report, we examined biochemical and biological characteristics of wild-type (WT) IDS and IDS mutants expressed in HeLa cells. IDS was shown to be glycosylated in the ER and Golgi apparatus and proteolytically cleaved to generate the mature forms in the Golgi apparatus. The mature WT IDS was translocated to the lysosome. In contrast, all IDS mutants we examined were found to accumulate in the ER and could not efficiently translocate to the lysosome. Accumulated IDS mutants in the ER were ubiquitinated by ERAD-related ubiquitin E3 ligase HRD1 followed by degradation via ERAD. Suppressed degradation of 'attenuated' mutant A85T IDS (the late-onset form of MPS II) by inhibiting ERAD components improved translocation to the lysosome and its activities. Our novel findings provide alternative targets to current principal therapies for MPS II. These perspectives provide a potenti al framework to develop fundamental therapeutic strategies and agents.
