The Deubiquitinase OTUD1 Influences HIV-1 Release by Regulating the Host Restriction Factor BST-2.
Article in Viruses, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2 (BST-2) is a restriction factor for human immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV-1) and plays an important role in regulating the release of viral particles. However, the antiviral efficacy of BST-2 is antagonized by the HIV-1-encoded accessory protein Vpu, which facilitates the degradation of BST-2 by recruiting E3 ubiquitin ligase β-TrCP. The involvement of deubiquitinases (DUBs) in counteracting BST-2 ubiquitination and influencing its stability during HIV-1 infection remains inadequately explored. In this study, we conducted a small interfering RNA (siRNA) screening of human DUBs and determined that OTUD1 interacts with BST-2, leading to a reduction in its K48- and K63-linked ubiquitination. This reduction increases BST-2 protein stability, and subsequently inhibits HIV-1 release. Our findings reveal a novel regulatory mechanism by which DUBs influence the stability of the HIV-1 restriction factor BST-2 to dampen viral release, providing a potential therapeutic target for HIV-1 antiviral intervention.
