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

Spatial regulation of mRNA polyadenylation emerges as a key mechanism shaping cellular function. The TENT5/FAM46 family comprises four non-canonical poly(A) polymerases that stabilize transcripts encoding ER-targeted proteins, with mutations linked to diseases of professional secretory cells. Using transcriptomic and proteomic profiling with systematic mutagenesis, we show how paralog-specific divergence drives distinct localization, interactions, and functions. TENT5D, the most ER-associated member, remodels the proteome, enhancing the expression of ER, ERGIC, Golgi, and lysosomal proteins. In contrast, TENT5B lacks ER targeting and regulates proteins involved in cell division. A member-specific C-terminal region that binds ER-transmembrane FNDC3 proteins is necessary and sufficient for ER localization. Mutations in this region of TENT5C, found in multiple myeloma, impair FNDC3 binding or stability, reducing immunoglobulin production and tumor-suppressive activity. Overall, we define a domain-encoded mechanism linking TENT5 localization to transcript selectivity and secretory output, with direct implications for compartmentalized mRNA regulation and development of RNA-based therapeutic strategies.
