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 ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) is a proteolytic machinery for the degradation of protein substrates that are post-translationally conjugated with ubiquitin polymers through the enzymatic action of ubiquitin ligases, in a process termed ubiquitylation. Ubiquitylation of substrates precedes their proteolysis via proteasomes, a hierarchical feature of UPS. E3-ubiquitin ligases recruit protein substrates providing specificity for ubiquitylation. Innate and adaptive immune system networks are regulated by ubiquitylation and substrate degradation via E3-ligases/UPS. Deregulation of E3-ligases/UPS components in immune cells is involved in the development of lymphomas, neurodevelopmental abnormalities, and cancers. Targeting E3-ligases for therapeutic intervention provides opportunities to mitigate the unintended broad effects of 26S proteasome inhibition. Recently, bifunctional moieties such as PROTACs and molecular glues have been developed to re-purpose E3-ligases for targeted degradation of unwanted aberrant proteins, with a potential for clinical use. Here, we summarize the involvement of E3-ligases/UPS components in immune-related diseases with perspectives.
