Cell-Based Small-Molecule Screening Identifying Proteostasis Regulators Enhancing Factor VIII Missense Mutant Secretion.

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
Missense mutations are the most prevalent alterations in genetic disorders such as hemophilia A (HA), which results from coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) deficiencies. These mutations disrupt protein biosynthesis, folding, secretion, and function. Current treatments for HA are extremely expensive and inconvenient for patients. Small molecule drugs offer a promising alternative or adjunctive strategy due to their lower cost and ease of administration, enhancing accessibility and patient compliance. By screening drug/chemical libraries with cells stably expressing FVIII-Gaussia luciferase fusion proteins, we identified compounds that enhance FVIII secretion and activity. Among these, suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) improved the secretion and activity of wild-type FVIII and common HA-associated missense mutants, especially mild and moderate ones. SAHA increased FVIII interaction with the endoplasmic reticulum chaperone BiP/GRP78 but not with calreticulin. Lowering cellular BiP levels decreased SAHA-induced FVIII secretion and enhancing BiP expression increased FVIII secretion. SAHA also enhanced secretion and BiP interactions with individual domains of FVIII. In vivo, treating mice with SAHA or a BiP activator boosted endogenous FVIII activity. These findings suggest that SAHA serves as a proteostasis regulator, providing a novel therapeutic approach to improve the secretion and functionality of FVIII missense mutants prone to misfolding.
