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

backgroundThe E3 ubiquitin ligase HECTD3 is a homologue of the E6-related protein carboxyl terminus, which plays a crucial role in biological processes and tumourigenesis. However, the functional characterisation of HECTD3 in glioblastoma is still elusive.

methodsDetermination of the functional role of HECTD3 in glioblastoma was made by a combination of HECTD3 molecular pattern analysis from human glioblastoma databases and subcutaneous and in situ injections of tumours in mice models.

resultsThis study reports that the DOC domain of HECTD3 interacts with the DNA binding domain of PARP1, and HECTD3 mediated the K63-linked polyubiquitination of PARP1 and stabilised the latter expression. Moreover, the Cysteine (Cys) 823 (ubiquitin-binding site) mutation of HECTD3 significantly reduced PARP1 polyubiquitination and HECTD3 was involved in the recruitment of ubiquitin-related molecules to PARP1 ubiquitin-binding sites (Lysines 209 and 221, respectively). Lastly, activation of EGFR-mediated signalling pathways by HECTD3 regulates PARP1 polyubiquitination.

conclusionOur results unveil the potential role of HECTD3 in glioblastoma and strongly preconise further investigation and consider HECTD3 as a promising therapeutic marker for glioblastoma treatment.
