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

Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) viral interleukin-6 (vIL-6) localizes largely to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and here associates functionally with both the gp130 signal transducer and the novel ER membrane protein vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 variant-2 (VKORC1v2). The latter interaction contributes to the viability of latently infected primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) cells and to HHV-8 productive replication, in part via promotion of ER-associated degradation (ERAD) of nascent pro-cathepsin D (pCatD) and consequent suppression of lysosome-localized proapoptotic mature CatD. Here we report that VKORC1v2 associates with insulin-like growth factor 2 receptor (IGF2R), also known as cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor, which is involved in trafficking of mannose-6-phosphate-conjugated glycoproteins to lysosomes. VKORC1v2 effected reduced IGF2R expression in a manner dependent on VKORC1v2-IGF2R interaction, while vIL-6, which could inhibit VKORC1v2-IGF2R interaction, effected increased expression of IGF2R. These effects were independent of changes in IGF2R mRNA levels, indicating likely posttranslational mechanisms. In kinetic analyses involving labeling of either newly synthesized or preexisting IGF2R, vIL-6 promoted accumulation of the former while having no detectable effect on the latter. Furthermore, vIL-6 led to decreased K48-linked ubiquitination of IGF2R and suppression of ERAD proteins effected increased IGF2R expression and loss of IGF2R regulation by vIL-6. Depletion-based experiments identified IGF2R as a promoter of PEL cell viability and virus yields from lytically reactivated cultures. Our findings identify ER-transiting nascent IGF2R as an interaction partner of VKORC1v2 and target of vIL-6 regulation and IGF2R as a positive contributor to HHV-8 biology, thereby extending understanding of the mechanisms of VKORC1v2-associated vIL-6 function.
