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

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules play critical roles in the activation and regulation of adaptive immunity through antigen presentation to CD8+ and CD4+ T cells, respectively. Strict regulation of MHC expression is critical for proper immune responses. CIITA (MHC class II transactivator), an NLR (nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich-repeat containing) protein, is a master regulator of MHC class II (MHC-II) gene transcription. Although it has been known that CIITA activity is regulated at the transcriptional and protein levels, the mechanism to determine CIITA protein level has not been elucidated. Here, we show that FBXO11 is a bona fide E3 ligase of CIITA and regulates CIITA protein level through ubiquitination-mediated degradation. A nonbiased proteomic approach for CIITA-binding protein identified FBXO11, a member of the Skp1-Cullin-1-F-box E3 ligase complex, as a binding partner of CIITA but not MHC class I transactivator, NLRC5. The cycloheximide chase assay showed that the half-life of CIITA is mainly regulated by FBXO11 via the ubiquitin-proteasome system. The expression of FBXO11 led to the reduced MHC-II at the promoter activity level, transcriptional level, and surface expression level through downregulation of CIITA. Moreover, human and mouse
