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

Chemotherapy resistance remains a major challenge in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC). Therefore, it is crucial to develop novel strategies to sensitize cancer cells to chemotherapy. Here, the fringe family is screened to determine their contribution to chemotherapy resistance in CRC. It is found that RFNG depletion significantly sensitizes cancer cells to oxaliplatin treatment. Mechanistically, chemotherapy-activated MAPK signaling induces ERK to phosphorylate RFNG Ser255 residue. Phosphorylated RFNG S255 (pS255) interacts with the nuclear importin proteins KPNA1/importin-α1 and KPNB1/importin-β1, leading to its translocation into the nucleus where it targets p53 and inhibits its phosphorylation by competitively inhibiting the binding of CHK2 to p53. Consequently, the expression of CDKN1A is decreased and that of SLC7A11 is increased, leading to the inhibition of apoptosis and ferroptosis. In contrast, phosphor-deficient RFNG S225A mutant showed increased apoptosis and ferroptosis, and exhibited a notable response to oxaliplatin chemotherapy both in vitro and in vivo. It is further revealed that patients with low RFNG pS255 exhibited significant sensitivity to oxaliplatin in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model. These findings highlight the crosstalk between the MAPK and p53 signaling pathways through RFNG, which mediates oxaliplatin resistance in CRC. Additionally, this study provides guidance for oxaliplatin treatment of CRC patients.
