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

Although melanoma therapy is improved by novel molecular targeted reagents, including vemurafenib, aberrant proliferation and early metastasis remain obstacles for melanoma; therefore, novel target molecules for melanoma need to be identified. In this study, we focused on deubiquitinating enzymes, which regulate protein stability through ubiquitin-proteasome systems, and identified 26S proteasome non-ATPase regulatory subunit 14 (PSMD14) as a molecule related to melanoma growth using siRNA library screening. Similar to a previous report, PSMD14 knockdown strongly induced p21 expression and inhibited RB phosphorylation in melanoma. After in silico analysis, TGF-β signaling was identified as a negatively correlated gene set with PSMD14 expression. Although TGF-β signaling is also related to the invasive phenotype of melanoma, PSMD14 knockdown suppressed melanoma migration and reduced SLUG expression, suggesting that targeting PSMD14 suppresses both growth and migration. Furthermore, SMAD3 expression increased in nucleus and SMAD3 degradation was delayed after PSMD14 knockdown. Thus, our present study suggests that targeting PSMD14 can inhibit melanoma growth and migration through either SMAD3 accumulation or SLUG reduction, respectively.
