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

backgroundOxidative stress induced growth inhibitor 1 (OSGIN1) regulates cell death. The role and underlying molecular mechanism of OSGIN1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are uncharacterized.

methodsOSGIN1 expression in NSCLC samples was detected using immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Growth of NSCLC cells and gefitinib-resistant cells expressing OSGIN1 or TUBB3 knockdown was determined by MTT, soft agar, and foci formation assays. The effect of OSGIN1 knockdown on in vivo tumor growth was assessed using NSCLC patient-derived xenograft models and gefitinib-resistant patient-derived xenograft models. Potentially interacting protein partners of OSGIN1 were identified using IP-MS/MS, immunoprecipitation, PLA, and Western blotting assays. Microtubule dynamics were explored by tubulin polymerization assay and immunofluorescence. Differential expression of signaling molecules in OSGIN1 knockdown cells was investigated using phospho-proteomics, KEGG analysis, and Western blotting.

resultsWe found that OSGIN1 is highly expressed in NSCLC tissues and is positively correlated with low survival rates and tumor size in lung cancer patients. OSGIN1 knockdown inhibited NSCLC cell growth and patient-derived NSCLC tumor growth in vivo. Knockdown of OSGIN1 strongly increased tubulin polymerization and re-established gefitinib sensitivity in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, knockdown of TUBB3 strongly inhibited NSCLC cell proliferation. Mechanistically, we found that OSGIN1 enhances DYRK1A-mediated TUBB3 phosphorylation, which is critical for inducing tubulin depolymerization. The results of phospho-proteomics and ontology analysis indicated that knockdown of OSGIN1 led to reduced propagation of the MKK3/6-p38 signaling axis.

conclusionsWe propose that OSGIN1 modulates microtubule dynamics by enhancing DYRK1A-mediated phosphorylation of TUBB3 at serine 172. Moreover, elevated OSGIN1 expression promotes NSCLC tumor growth and gefitinib resistance through the MKK3/6-p38 signaling pathway. Our findings unveil a new mechanism of OSGIN1 and provide a promising therapeutic target for NSCLC treatment in the clinic.
