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

CDK1 is an oncogenic serine/threonine kinase known to play an important role in the regulation of the cell cycle. FOXM1, as one of the CDK1 substrates, requires binding of CDK1/CCNB1 complex for phosphorylation-dependent recruitment of p300/CBP coactivators to mediate transcriptional activity. Previous studies from our laboratory found that a novel peptide (M1-20) derived from the C-terminus of FOXM1 exhibited potent inhibitory effects for cancer cells. Based on these proofs and to explore the inhibitory mechanism of M1-20, we designed experiments and found that CDK1 served as an important target of M1-20. M1-20 enhanced the ubiquitination and degradation of CDK1 by CUL4-DDB1-DCAF1 complexes through the proteasome pathway. M1-20 could also affect the formation of CDK1/CCNB1 complexes. In addition, compared to RO3306, a CDK1 inhibitor, M1-20 exhibited excellent inhibitory effects in FVB/N MMTV-PyVT murine model of spontaneous breast cancer. These results suggested that M1-20 was a potential CDK1 inhibitor for the treatment of cancer.
