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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous breast cancer subtype and accounts for approximately 15-20% of breast cancer cases. In this study, we identified KLHL29, which is an understudied member of the Kelch-like gene family, as a crucial tumor suppressor that regulates chemosensitivity in TNBC. KLHL29 expression was significantly downregulated in breast cancer tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues, and low levels of KLHL29 were associated with unfavorable prognoses. Ectopic KLHL29 suppressed, while depleting KLHL29 promoted, the growth, proliferation, migration, and invasion of TNBC. Mechanistically, KLHL29 recruited the CUL3 E3-ligase to the RNA-binding protein DDX3X, leading to the proteasomal degradation of the latter. This downregulation of DDX3X resulted in the destabilization of CCND1 mRNA and the consequent cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase. Remarkably, the DDX3X inhibitor RK33 combined with platinum-based chemotherapy can synergistically suppress TNBC that usually expresses low levels of KLHL29 and high levels of DDX3X using cancer cell-derived xenograft and patient-derived organoids models. Altogether, we uncovered the potential role for the KLHL29-DDX3X signaling cascade in the regulation of TNBC progression, thus providing a promising combination strategy for overcoming TNBC chemoresistance.
