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

Leukemic stem cells (LSCs) comprise a very rare cell population that results in the development of acute myeloid leukemia. The selective targeting of drivers in LSCs with small molecule inhibitors holds promise for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. Recently, we reported the identification of inhibitors of the histone lysine demethylase JMJD1C that preferentially kill MLL rearranged acute leukemia cells. Here, we report the identification of jumonji domain modulator #7 (JDM-7). Surface plasmon resonance analysis showed that JDM-7 binds to JMJD1C and its family homolog JMJD1B. JDM-7 did not significantly suppress cell proliferation in liquid cell culture at higher doses, although it led to a significant decrease in semi-solid colony formation experiments at lower concentrations. Moreover, low doses of JDM-7 did not suppress the proliferation of erythroid progenitor cells. We identified that JDM-7 downregulates the LSC self-renewal gene HOXA9 in leukemia cells. We further found that the structure of JDM-7 is similar to that of tadalafil, a drug approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. Molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance analysis showed that tadalafil binds to JMJD1C. Moreover, similar to JDM-7, tadalafil suppressed colony formation of leukemia cells in semi-solid cell culture at a concentration that did not affect primary umbilical cord blood cells. In summary, we have identified JDM-7 and tadalafil as potential JMJD1C modulators that selectively inhibit the growth of LSCs.
