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

purposeTo identify the characteristics and function of the truncated cadherin cDNA which encodes a soluble molecule containing the sequence of VE-cadherin extracellular domain repeats from repeat 1 to 4 (designated as CED1-4) and a secreting signal peptide at N terminal.

methodsA pMSCV/CED1-4 vector was constructed. Recombinant retrovirus ReCED1-4 and ReEmpty were produced by 293 package cells and transfected into MDA-MB435 human breast cancer cells. The expression of CED1-4 in transfectants and their supernatant was analyzed by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. MDA-MB435 cell proliferation assays were performed in vitro and in vivo. CED-14-induced apoptosis was demonstrated using Annexin V binding, TUNEL and caspase 3 assays. The expression of integrin beta1 and c-fos mRNA was detected by RT-PCR.

resultsThe constructed soluble CED1-4 encoded 484 amino acids and a secreting signal peptide (27 amino acids). CED1-4 was expressed by MDA-MB435/CED1-4 cells, and detected in the supernatant of CED1-4 tranfectants. CED1-4 transfection significantly inhibited the growth of MDA-MB435 cells in vitro and in vivo. About 22-fold increase in the early apoptotic cells in MDA-MB435/CED1-4 cells was observed as compared with MDA-MB435/empty cells. Increased activity of caspase 3 in MDA-MB435/CED1-4 cells was more than two times as compared with that of the control cells. Interestingly, integrin beta1 transcriptional level in MDA-MB435/CED1-4 cells was down-regulated as compared with control cells. The resistance of fibronectin to CED1-4 apoptotic inducibility was confirmed by detection of caspase 3. The blockage of c-fos transcriptional expression was detected in MDA-MB435/CED1-4 cells.

conclusionsThe soluble truncated cadherin may be considered an apoptotic inducer and growth inhibitor in the MDA-MB435 breast carcinoma cell line. Down-regulation of integrin beta1 and blockage of c-fos expression may be related to CED1-4-induced apoptosis and growth inhibition.
