Drug-induced apoptosis by a matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor, SI-27 on human malignant glioma cell lines; in vitro study.

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
Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) plays important roles in cell invasion and tumor angiogenesis. SI-27, an anti-MMP agent, has already been shown to possess both in vitro anti-invasive and anti-angiogenic properties against malignant gliomas in non-cytotoxic dose concentrations. However, to the best of our knowledge, the molecular mechanism mediating the cytotoxic action by this agent and the molecular mechanism in the cytotoxic action against malignant glioma cell have not yet been clarified. Therefore, we assessed the effect in the cytotoxic dose concentrations to investigate whether this cytotoxic action is related to apoptosis in this study. The effect on human glioma cell lines (U87MG, U251MG, and U373MG) was examined by transmission electron microscope, agarose gel electrophoresis with the DNA fragmentation, flow cytometry with FITC-conjugated Annexin V, and detection of caspase activity. Drug-induced apoptosis was observed in the cytotoxic dose. The result indicated that the cytotoxity of SI-27 might be related to the drug-induced apoptosis mediated by caspase.
