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

D-type cyclins (hereafter, cyclin D) are central regulators orchestrating G1/S cell cycle transition. Accordingly, aberrant expression of cyclin D is strongly correlated with proliferation-related diseases such as cancer. However, the mechanisms regulating cyclin D turnover are incompletely elucidated. Here we identify FBXO32, namely atrogin-1, as the E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets all three cyclin D for ubiquitination and stabilization. Specifically, FBXO32 catalyzes the lysine (Lys/K)27-linked polyubiquitination of cyclin D1 at the K58 site and subsequent stabilization. Moreover, GSK-3β inactivation-mediated dephosphorylation of cyclin D1 facilitates its interaction with FBXO32 and subsequent ubiquitination. Furthermore, FBXO32 exhibits tumor-promoting effect in mouse models and increased FBXO32 is associated with poor prognosis of cancer patients. Additionally, disrupting the FBXO32-cyclin D axis enhances the tumor-killing effect of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)4/6 inhibitor palbociclib. Collectively, these findings reveal that FBXO32 enhances the protein stability of cyclin D via K27-linked ubiquitination, and contributes to cancer progression and the limited response of cancer cells to CDK4/6 inhibitors.
