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

Previous studies demonstrated a direct correlation with loss of kangai-1 (KAI1), a metastasis suppressor, and poor prognosis in human prostate and other cancers. In this study, we have characterized the age-dependent downregulation of KAI1 in the TRAMP model which was reversed when mice were fed a genistein-enriched diet. We demonstrated here that doses of genistein (5 and 10 microM)--achievable by supplement intake--significantly induced the expression of KAI1, both at the mRNA and protein levels (up to 2.5-fold), and decreased the invasiveness of TRAMP-C2 cells >2.0-fold. We have pinpointed KAI1 as the invasion suppressor, since its knockdown by siRNA restored the invasive potential of genistein-treated TRAMP-C2 cells to control levels. This work provides the first evidence that genistein treatment may counteract KAI1 downregulation, which is observed in many cancer types and therefore, could be used in anti-metastatic therapies.
