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

Metabolites are important for cell fate determination. Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (F1,6P) is the rate-limiting product in glycolysis and the rate-limiting substrate in gluconeogenesis. Here, it is discovered that the nuclear-accumulated F1,6P impairs cancer cell viability by directly binding to high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), the most abundant non-histone chromosome structural protein with paradoxical roles in tumor development. F1,6P disrupts the association between the HMGB1 A-box and C-tail by targeting K43/K44 residues, inhibits HMGB1 oligomerization, and stabilizes P53 protein by increasing P53-HMGB1 interaction. Moreover, F1,6P lowers the affinity of HMGB1 for DNA and DNA adducts, which sensitizes cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drug(s)-induced DNA replication stress and DNA damage. Concordantly, F1,6P resensitizes cancer cells with chemotherapy resistance, impairs tumor growth and enhances chemosensitivity in mice, and impedes the growth of human tumor organoids. These findings reveal a novel role for nuclear-accumulated F1,6P and underscore the potential utility of F1,6P as a drug for cancer therapy.
