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

Posttranslational modifications are efficient means to rapidly regulate protein function in response to a stimulus. Although ubiquitination events and the E3 ubiquitin ligases involved are increasingly characterized in many signaling pathways, their regulation by deubiquitinating enzymes remains less understood. The C-type lectin receptor (CLR) signaling adaptor CARD9 was previously reported to be activated via TRIM62-mediated ubiquitination. In this study, we identify the deubiquitinase USP15 as a novel regulator of CARD9, demonstrating that USP15 constitutively associates with CARD9 and removes TRIM62-deposited ubiquitin marks. Furthermore, USP15 knockdown and knockout specifically enhance CARD9-dependent CLR signaling in both mouse and human immune cells. Altogether, our study identifies a novel regulator of innate immune signaling and provides a blueprint for the identification of additional deubiquitinases that are likely to control these processes.
