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

NUMB is an endocytic adaptor protein that contains four isoforms (p65, p66, p71 and p72) due to alternative splicing regulation. Here, we show that NUMB exon12 (E12)-skipping isoforms p65/p66 promote epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cancer cell migration in vitro, and facilitate cancer metastasis in mice, whereas E12-included p71/p72 isoforms attenuate these effects. Mechanistically, p65/p66 isoforms significantly increase the sorting of Notch1 through early endosomes (EEs) for enhanced Notch1 activity. In contrast, p71/p72 isoforms act as negative regulators of Notch1 by ubiquitylating the Notch1 intracellular domain (N1ICD) and promoting its degradation. Moreover, we observed that the interaction between N1ICD and SMAD3 is important for their own stabilization, and for NUMB-mediated EMT response and cell migration. Either N1ICD or SMAD3 overexpression could significantly recuse the migration reduction seen in the p65/p66 knockdown, and Notch1 or SMAD3 knockdown rescued the migration advantage seen in the overexpression of p66. Taken all together, our study provides mechanistic insights into the opposite regulation of Notch1-SMAD3 crosstalk by NUMB isoforms and identifies them as critical regulators of EMT and cancer cell migration.
