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

Glycolysis is the most predominant metabolic reprogramming of pancreatic cancer (PC), the underlying mechanism of which in PC cells remains unclear. In this study, we found for the first time that KIF15 promotes the glycolytic capacity of PC cells and PC tumor growth. Moreover, the expression of KIF15 was negatively correlated with the prognosis of PC patients. The ECAR and OCR measurements indicated that KIF15 knockdown significantly impaired the glycolytic capacity of PC cells. Western blotting demonstrated that the expression of glycolysis molecular markers decreased rapidly after the knockdown of KIF15. Further experiments revealed that KIF15 promoted the stability of PGK1 and its effect on PC cell glycolysis. Interestingly, the overexpression of KIF15 impaired the ubiquitination level of PGK1. To investigate the underlying mechanism by which KIF15 regulates the function of PGK1, we performed mass spectrometry (MS). The MS and Co-IP assay indicated that KIF15 recruited and enhanced the binding between PGK1 and USP10. The ubiquitination assay verified that KIF15 recruited and promoted the effect of USP10 on PGK1, thereby deubiquitinating PGK1. Through the construction of KIF15 truncators, we found that KIF15 is bound to PGK1 and USP10 through its coil2 domain. Together, our study demonstrated for the first time that KIF15 enhances the glycolytic capacity of PC through the recruitment of USP10 and PGK1, and that the KIF15/USP10/PGK1 axis may serve as an effective therapeutic agent for PC.
