EBV-LMP1 promotes radioresistance by inducing protective autophagy through BNIP3 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Article in Cell death & disease, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 papers.
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.
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
Studies have indicated that dysfunction of autophagy is involved in the initiation and progression of multiple tumors and their chemoradiotherapy. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a lymphotropic human gamma herpes virus that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). EBV encoded latent membrane protein1 (LMP1) exhibits the properties of a classical oncoprotein. In previous studies, we experimentally demonstrated that LMP1 could increase the radioresistance of NPC. However, how LMP1 contributes to the radioresistance in NPC is still not clear. In the present study, we found that LMP1 could enhance autophagy by upregulating the expression of BCL2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa protein-interacting protein 3 (BNIP3). Knockdown of BNIP3 could increase the apoptosis and decrease the radioresistance mediated by protective autophagy in LMP1-positive NPC cells. The data showed that increased BNIP3 expression is mediated by LMP1 through the ERK/HIF1α signaling axis, and LMP1 promotes the binding of BNIP3 to Beclin1 and competitively reduces the binding of Bcl-2 to Beclin1, thus upregulating autophagy. Furthermore, knockdown of BNIP3 can reduce the radioresistance promoted by protective autophagy in vivo. These data clearly indicated that, through BNIP3, LMP1 induced autophagy, which has a crucial role in the protection of LMP1-positive NPC cells against irradiation. It provides a new basis and potential target for elucidating LMP1-mediated radioresistance.
