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

backgroundCyclic nucleotides play critical roles in cardiovascular biology and disease. PDE10A (phosphodiesterase 10A) is able to hydrolyze both cAMP and cGMP. PDE10A expression is induced in various human tumor cell lines, and PDE10A inhibition suppresses tumor cell growth. Chemotherapy drug such as doxorubicin (DOX) is widely used in chemotherapy. However, cardiotoxicity of DOX remains to be a serious clinical complication. In the current study, we aim to determine the role of PDE10A and the effect of PDE10A inhibition on cancer growth and cardiotoxicity induced by DOX.

methodsWe used global PDE10A knockout (KO) mice and PDE10A inhibitor TP-10 to block PDE10A function. DOX-induced cardiotoxicity was evaluated in C57Bl/6J mice and nude mice with implanted ovarian cancer xenografts. Isolated adult mouse cardiomyocytes and a human ovarian cancer cell line were used for in vitro functional and mechanistic studies.

resultsWe found that PDE10A deficiency or inhibition alleviated DOX-induced myocardial atrophy, apoptosis, and dysfunction in C57Bl/6J mice. RNA sequencing study revealed a number of PDE10A-regulated signaling pathways involved in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. PDE10A inhibition increased the death, decreased the proliferation, and potentiated the effect of DOX on various human cancer cells. Importantly, in nude mice with implanted ovarian cancer xenografts, PDE10A inhibition attenuated tumor growth while protecting DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. In isolated cardiomyocytes, PDE10A contributed to DOX-induced cardiomyocyte death via increasing Top2β (topoisomerase 2β) expression, mitochondrial dysfunction, and DNA damage by antagonizing cGMP/PKG (protein kinase G) signaling. PDE10A contributed to cardiomyocyte atrophy via potentiating FoxO3 (forkhead box O3) signaling via both cAMP/PKA (protein kinase A)- and cGMP/PKG-dependent signaling.

conclusionsTaken together, our study elucidates a novel role for PDE10A in cardiotoxicity induced by DOX and cancer growth. Given that PDE10A has been already proven to be a safe drug target, PDE10A inhibition may represent a novel therapeutic strategy in cancer therapy, with effects preventing DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and simultaneously antagonizing cancer growth.
