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

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi) induce cytotoxicity in homologous recombination repair (HR)-deficient (HRD) cancers by trapping PARP1 on chromatin, thereby causing irreparable replication-associated DNA damage. Although increased clearance of trapped PARP1 from chromatin reduces the sensitivity of cancer cells to PARPi, details surrounding this process remain unclear. PARPi exposure is known to cause increased autophagy flux, whereas autophagy inhibition can hypersensitize cells to PARPi. Our study reveals that trapped PARP1 is cleared via nucleophagy, with the selective autophagy receptor TEX264 and its partner segregase p97 (also known as VCP) orchestrating this process. TEX264 interacts directly with trapped PARP1, linking it to the autophagosomal protein LC3 for degradation. Disrupting this pathway, either chemically or genetically, increases PARP1 trapping, resulting in protein aggregates, DNA damage and cell lethality, ultimately re-sensitizing PARPi-resistant cells. We conclude that nucleophagy serves a cytoprotective role by targeting PARPi-induced trapped PARP1 for degradation.
