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

Inhibition of the proteasome leads to proteotoxic stress, which is characterized by the buildup of ubiquitinated proteins that cannot be degraded properly. The transcription factor Nrf1 (also called NFE2L1) counteracts proteotoxic stress by inducing transcription of proteasome subunit genes, resulting in the restoration of proteasome activity. Further understanding of the Nrf1 pathway is therefore of interest in both neurodegeneration, where proteasome activity could be enhanced, and cancer, where suppression of this pathway could potentiate the cell-killing effect mediated by proteasome inhibitor drugs. Here, to identify novel regulators of Nrf1, we performed an RNAi screen in an engineered cell line, reporting on Nrf1 transcriptional activity. In addition to validating known regulators, we discovered that the AAA+ ATPase RUVBL1 is necessary for Nrf1's transcriptional activity. Given that RUVBL1 is part of different multisubunit complexes that play key roles in transcription, we dissected this phenomenon further and found that the TIP60 chromatin-regulatory complex is essential for Nrf1-dependent transcription of proteasome genes. Consistent with these observations, Nrf1, RUVBL1, and TIP60 proteins were co-recruited to the promoter regions of proteasome genes after proteasome inhibitor treatments. More importantly, depletion of RUVBL1 or TIP60 in various cancer cells sensitized them to cell death induced by proteasome inhibition. Overall, our study provides a framework for manipulating the TIP60-Nrf1 axis to alter proteasome function in various human diseases, including cancer.
