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

Sustained activation of DNA damage response (DDR) signaling has been demonstrated to play vital role in chemotherapy failure in cancer. However, the mechanism underlying DDR sustaining in cancer cells remains unclear. In the current study, we found that the expression of the DDUP microprotein, encoded by the CTBP1-DT lncRNA, drastically increased in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells and was inversely correlated to cisplatin-based therapy response. Using a patient-derived human cancer cell model, we observed that DNA damage-induced DDUP foci sustained the RAD18/RAD51C and RAD18/PCNA complexes at the sites of DNA damage, consequently resulting in cisplatin resistance through dual RAD51C-mediated homologous recombination (HR) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)-mediated post-replication repair (PRR) mechanisms. Notably, treatment with an ATR inhibitor disrupted the DDUP/RAD18 interaction and abolished the effect of DDUP on prolonged DNA damage signaling, which resulted in the hypersensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to cisplatin-based therapy in vivo. Altogether, our study provides insights into DDUP-mediated aberrant DDR signaling in cisplatin resistance and describes a potential novel therapeutic approach for the management of platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.
