Ubiquitin-dependent degradation of p27Kip1 and p21Waf1/Cip1 by AMBRA1 ensures G1 and S phase progression and limits replication stress.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The cell cycle orchestrates the events that lead to cell replication and division. AMBRA1 interacts with the E3 ubiquitin ligase CRL4DDB1 complex to regulate the stability of D-type cyclins, key regulators of the G1-S phase transition. However, whether AMBRA1 has a role in the S phase remains to be elucidated. Here, we show that AMBRA1 affects the turnover of p21Waf1/Cip1 and p27Kip1 by coupling the CRL4DDB1 complex to these proteins. In the absence of AMBRA1, the increased stability of p21Waf1/Cip1, rather than p27Kip1, resulted in the accumulation of replication stress. Mechanistically, the excess of p21Waf1/Cip1 during the S phase resulted in more PCNA-bound p21Waf1/Cip1, negatively affecting the binding of FEN1 to PCNA, which left under-replicated DNA. Consequently, AMBRA1-depleted cells are sensitive to FEN1 inhibition. Aberrantly low levels of AMBRA1 occurring in Sonic Hedgehog-type medulloblastomas correlate with high levels of p21Waf1/Cip1 and a worse prognosis. Finally, AMBRA1 and p21 levels may serve as biomarkers for patient stratification and treatment in medulloblastoma.
