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

The protein c-CBL is a ubiquitin ligase. It catalyzes the last step of the transfer of ubiquitin to target proteins. Upon completion of polyubiquitination, the target proteins are degraded. Clinically, it is important that c-CBL is mutated in a subset of patients who develop myeloid malignancies, which are diseases of the hematopoietic stem or progenitor cells. c-CBL has also been shown to be expressed by human spermatogonia. The whole spermatogonial cell population possesses a subset that comprises also the spermatogonial stem cells. Based on these findings we hypothesized that c-CBL might be a general stem cell marker. To test this, we first validated the antibody using marmoset bone marrow and adult testis. In both tissues, the expected staining pattern was observed. Western blot analysis revealed only one band of the expected size. Then, we examined the expression of c-CBL in marmoset monkey embryonic stem (ES) cells, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells and adult stem cells. We found that c-CBL is strongly expressed in undifferentiated marmoset iPS cells and ES cells. However, adult stem cells in the gut and the stomach did not express c-CBL, indicating that c-CBL is not a general stem cell marker. In summary, c-CBL is strongly expressed in pluripotent stem cells of the marmoset monkey as well as in selected adult stem cell types. Future studies will define the function of c-CBL in pluripotent stem cells.
