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

Simian virus 40 small t antigen (st) is required for optimal transformation and replication properties of the virus. We find that in certain cell types, such as the human osteosarcoma cell line U2OS, st is capable of inducing apoptosis, as evidenced by a fragmented nuclear morphology and positive terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling staining of transfected cells. The cell death can be p53 independent, since it also occurs in p53-deficient H1299 cells. Genetic analysis indicates that two specific mutants affect apoptosis induction. One of these (C103S) has been frequently used as a PP2A binding mutant. The second mutant (TR4) lacks the final four amino acids of st, which have been reported to be unimportant for PP2A binding in vitro. However, TR4 unexpectedly fails to bind PP2A in vivo. Furthermore, a long-term colony assay reveals a potent colony inhibition upon st expression, and the behavior of st mutants in this assay reflects the relative frequency of nuclear fragmentation observed in transfections using the same mutants. Notably, either Bcl-2 coexpression or broad caspase inhibitor treatment could restore normal nuclear morphology. Finally, fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis suggests a correlation between the ability of st to modulate cell cycle progression and apoptosis. Taken together, these observations underscore that st does not always promote proliferation but may, depending on conditions and cell type, effect a cell death response.
