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

FBXW7 acts as a typical tumor suppressor, with loss-of-function alterations in human cancers, by promoting ubiquitylation and degradation of many oncoproteins. Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a well-characterized histone demethylase. Whether LSD1 has demethylase-independent activity remains elusive. Here we report that LSD1 directly binds to FBXW7 to destabilize FBXW7 independent of its demethylase activity. Specifically, LSD1 is a pseudosubstrate of FBXW7 and LSD1-FBXW7 binding does not trigger LSD1 ubiquitylation, but instead promotes FBXW7 self-ubiquitylation by preventing FBXW7 dimerization. The self-ubiquitylated FBXW7 is subjected to degradation by proteasome as well as lysosome in a manner dependent on autophagy protein p62/SQSTM1. Biologically, LSD1 destabilizes FBXW7 to abrogate its functions in growth suppression, nonhomologous end-joining repair, and radioprotection. Collectively, our study revealed a previously unknown activity of LSD1, which likely contributes to its oncogenic function. Targeting LSD1 protein, not only its demethylase activity, might be a unique approach for LSD1-based drug discovery for anticancer application.
