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

backgroundAccumulating evidence has demonstrated that aberrant expression of deubiquitinating enzymes is associated with the initiation and progression of Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The publicly available TCGA database of breast cancer data was used to analyze the OTUD deubiquitinating family members that were correlated with survival of breast cancer and ovarian tumor domain-containing 2 (OTUD-2), or YOD1 was identified. The aim of present study was to assess YOD1 expression and function in human TNBC and then explored the underlying molecular events.

methodsWe detected the expression of YOD1 in 32 TNBC and 44 NTNBC samples by qRT-PCR, Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Manipulation of YOD1 expression was assessed in vitro and in vivo for TNBC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, cell-cycle and drug resistance, using colony formation assay, transwell assay, CCK8 assay, TUNEL assay, flow cytometric analysis and xenograft tumor assay. Next, proteomic analysis, Western blot, proximity ligation assay, Immunoprecipitation, and Immunofluorescence were conducted to assess downstream targets.

resultsIt was found that YOD1 was significantly upregulated in TNBC tissues compared with non-triple-negative breast cancer (NTNBC), which was positively correlated with poor survival in TNBC patients. Knockdown of YOD1 effectively inhibited TNBC cell migration, proliferation, cell cycle and resistance to cisplatin and paclitaxel. Mechanistically, YOD1 promoted TNBC progression in a manner dependent on its catalytic activity through binding with CDK1, leading to de-polyubiquitylation of CDK1 and upregulation of CDK1 expression. In addition, YOD1 overexpression was found to be correlated with CDK1 overexpression in human TNBC specimens. Finally, in vivo study demonstrated that YOD1 knockdown or YOD1 inhibitor could inhibit CDK1 expression and suppress the growth and metastasis of TNBC tumors.

conclusionOur study highlights that YOD1 functions as an oncogene in TNBC via binding to CDK1 and mediated its stability and oncogenic activity. Interfering with YOD1 expression or YOD1 inhibitor could suppress TNBC cells in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that YOD1 may prove to be a promising therapeutic target for TNBC.
