Two specific inhibitors of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase LY294002 and wortmannin up-regulate beta1,4-galactosyltransferase I and thus sensitize SMMC-7721 human hepatocarcinoma cells to cycloheximide-induced apoptosis.

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
Previous study indicated that beta1,4-galactosyltransferase I (beta1,4GT1) was up-regulated by cycloheximide (CHX) and thus enhanced apoptosis induced by CHX in SMMC-7721 cells. In this study, we reported that constitutively active Akt protein (myr-Akt) inhibited CHX-induced apoptosis in SMMC-7721 cells through down-regulating beta1,4GT1. However, the two PI3K inhibitors LY294002 and wortmannin treatment up-regulated beta1,4GT1 through enhancing Sp1 protein expression and consequently increased CHX-induced SMMC-7721 cells apoptosis. Besides, our results suggested that beta1,4GT1 and cell surface galactose residues synthesized by elevated beta1,4GT1 played an important role in SMMC-7721 cells apoptosis treated with CHX and PI3K inhibitor together. Moreover, we found that CHX accentuated beta1,4GT1 through down-regulating Akt expression to mediate SMMC-7721 cells apoptosis. Taken together, PI3K inhibitors LY294002 and wortmannin up-regulated beta1,4GT1 and enhanced CHX-induced apoptosis in SMMC-7721 cells, which suggested that PI3K inhibitors might have therapeutic potential when combined with CHX in the treatment of hepatoma.
