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

Besides their original regulating roles in the brain, spinal cord, retina, and peripheral nervous system for mediating fast excitatory synaptic transmission, glutamate receptors consisting of metabotropic glutamate receptors (GluRs) and ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) have emerged to have a critical role in the biology of cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis. However, the precise mechanism underpinning the signal transduction mediated by ligand-bound GluRs is not clearly elucidated. Here, we show that iGluRs, GluR1 and GluR2, are acetylated by acetyltransferase CREB-binding protein upon glutamate stimulation of cells, and are targeted by lysyl oxidase-like 2 for deacetylation. Acetylated GluR1/2 recruit β-arrestin1/2 and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) to form a protein complex. Both β-arrestin1/2 and STAT3 are subsequently acetylated and activated. Simultaneously, activated STAT3 acetylated at lysine 685 translocates to mitochondria to upregulate energy metabolism-related gene transcription. Our results reveal that acetylation-dependent formation of GluR1/2-β-arrestin1/2-STAT3 signalosome is critical for glutamate-induced cell proliferation.
