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

Due to the enhanced glycolytic rate, cancer cells generate lactate copiously, subsequently promoting the lactylation of histones. While previous studies have explored the impact of histone lactylation in modulating gene expression, the precise role of this epigenetic modification in regulating oncogenes is largely unchartered. In this study, using breast cancer cell lines and their mutants exhibiting lactate-deficient metabolome, we have identified that an enhanced rate of aerobic glycolysis supports c-Myc expression via promoter-level histone lactylation. Interestingly, c-Myc further transcriptionally upregulates serine/arginine splicing factor 10 (SRSF10) to drive alternative splicing of MDM4 and Bcl-x in breast cancer cells. Moreover, our results reveal that restricting the activity of critical glycolytic enzymes affects the c-Myc-SRSF10 axis to subside the proliferation of breast cancer cells. Our findings provide novel insights into the mechanisms by which aerobic glycolysis influences alternative splicing processes that collectively contribute to breast tumorigenesis. Furthermore, we also envisage that chemotherapeutic interventions attenuating glycolytic rate can restrict breast cancer progression by impeding the c-Myc-SRSF10 axis.
