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

SAG (Sensitive to Apoptosis Gene) and ROC1 (Regulator of Cullin-1) are two family members of the RING component of CRL (Cullin RING ligase). Both members are essential for growth and survival of several types of human cancer cells; their role in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), however, remains elusive. Here we reported that compared to adjacent normal tissues, both SAG and ROC1 are overexpressed in RCC, which is positively correlated with poor patient survival, particularly for SAG. Depletion of SAG or ROC1 inhibited growth and survival of RCC cells by inducing G2/M arrest, senescence, and apoptosis likely due to accumulation of WEE1, p21, p27, NOXA, and BIM. Interestingly, simultaneous BIM knockdown in RCC cells partially rescues growth suppression triggered by depletion of SAG, but not ROC1, suggesting a differential role of BIM. Collectively, our study provides the proof-of-concept evidence that RING components of CRL are attractive candidates for targeted therapy of RCC.
