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

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mediators of cell-to-cell communication that are involved in both normal processes and pathological conditions. Latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is a major viral oncogene that is expressed in most Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated cancers and secreted in EVs. LMP1-modified EVs have the ability to influence recipient cell growth, migration, and differentiation and regulate immune cell function. Despite the significance of LMP1-modified EVs in EBV malignancies, very little is understood about how this protein hijacks the host EV pathway for secretion. Using the biotin identification (BioID) method, we identified LMP1-proximal interacting proteins that are known to play roles in EV formation and protein trafficking. Analysis of the identified LMP1-interacting proteins revealed an enrichment in the ESCRT pathway and associated proteins, including CD63, Syntenin-1, Alix, TSG101, Hrs, and charged multivesicular body proteins (CHMPs). LMP1 transcriptionally upregulated and increased the protein expression of EV biogenesis and secretion genes. Nanoparticle tracking and immunoblot analysis revealed reduced levels of LMP1 EV packaging and of vesicle production following the knockdown of Syntenin-1, Alix, Hrs, and TSG101, with altered endolysosomal trafficking observed when Syntenin-1 and Hrs expression was reduced. Knockdown of specific ESCRT-III subunits (CHMP4B, -5, and -6) impaired LMP1 packaging and secretion into EVs. Finally, we demonstrate that the efficient secretion of LMP1-modified EVs promotes cell attachment, proliferation, and migration and tumor growth. Together, these results begin to shed light on how LMP1 exploits host ESCRT machinery to direct the incorporation of the viral oncoprotein into the EV pathway for secretion to alter the tumor microenvironment.
