Transiently formed nucleus-to-cilium microtubule arrays mediate senescence initiation in a KIFC3-dependent manner.
Article in Nature communications, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Despite the importance of cellular senescence in human health, how damaged cells undergo senescence remains elusive. We have previously shown that promyelocytic leukemia nuclear body (PML-NBs) translocation of the ciliary FBF1 is essential for senescence induction in stressed cells. Here we discover that an early cellular event occurring in stressed cells is the transient assembly of stress-induced nucleus-to-cilium microtubule arrays (sinc-MTs). The sinc-MTs are distinguished by unusual polyglutamylation and unique polarity, with minus-ends nucleating near the nuclear envelope and plus-ends near the ciliary base. KIFC3, a minus-end-directed kinesin, is recruited to plus-ends of sinc-MTs and interacts with the centrosomal protein CENEXIN1. In damaged cells, CENEXIN1 co-translocates with FBF1 to PML-NBs. Deficiency of KIFC3 abolishes PML-NB translocation of FBF1 and CENEXIN1, as well as senescence initiation in damaged cells. Our study reveals that KIFC3-mediated nuclear transport of FBF1 along polyglutamylated sinc-MTs is a prerequisite for senescence induction in mammalian cells.
