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

On induction of DNA damage with 405-nm laser light, proteins involved in base excision repair (BER) are recruited to DNA lesions. We find that the dynamics of factors typical of either short-patch (XRCC1) or long-patch (PCNA) BER are altered by chemicals that perturb actin or tubulin polymerization in human cells. Whereas the destabilization of actin filaments by latrunculin B, cytochalasin B, or Jasplakinolide decreases BER factor accumulation at laser-induced damage, inhibition of tubulin polymerization by nocodazole increases it. We detect no recruitment of actin to sites of laser-induced DNA damage, yet the depolymerization of cytoplasmic actin filaments elevates both actin and tubulin signals in the nucleus. While published evidence suggested a positive role for F-actin in double-strand break repair in mammals, the enrichment of actin in budding yeast nuclei interferes with BER, augmenting sensitivity to Zeocin. Our quantitative imaging results suggest that the depolymerization of cytoplasmic actin may compromise BER efficiency in mammals not only due to elevated levels of nuclear actin but also of tubulin, linking cytoskeletal integrity to BER.
