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

The immune system is finely tuned to fight against infections, eradicate neoplasms, and prevent autoimmunity. Protein posttranslational modification (PTM) constitutes a molecular layer of regulation to guarantee the proper intensity of immune response. Herein, we report that UBC9-mediated protein SUMOylation plays an essential role in peripheral CD4 T-cell proliferation, but without a perceptible impact on T-cell polarization. Both conventional T-cell (Tcon) and regulatory T-cell (Treg) maintenance are differentially affected, which was likely caused by a shared deficit in cell glycolytic metabolism. Mechanistically, PDPK1 (3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein-kinase 1) was identified as a novel SUMOylation substrate, which occurred predominantly at lysine 299 (K299) located within the protein-kinase domain. Loss of PDPK1 SUMOylation impeded its autophosphorylation at serine 241 (S241), thereby leading to hypoactivation of downstream mTORC1 signaling coupled with incompetence of cell proliferation. Altogether, our results revealed a novel regulatory mechanism in peripheral CD4 T-cell homeostatic proliferation, which involves SUMOylation regulation of PDPK1-mTORC1 signaling-mediated glycolytic process.
