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

Snail, a transcriptional repressor of E-cadherin expression, plays a role in the process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition. However, the molecular basis of the role of snail in epithelial-mesenchymal transition has not been fully clarified. Here we show that the expression of snail in epithelial Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) and A431 cells enhances both cell detachment and attachment. Snail did not confer resistance to anoikis induced by loss of contact but instead enhanced cell attachment to extracellular matrices such as fibronectin. This attachment was inhibited by Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptides. Up-regulation of the promoter activity of integrin alphaV was observed in snail-expressing MDCK (MDCK/snail) cells. Snail also enhanced MDCK cell migration toward osteopontin that is a ligand for integrin alphaVbeta3. We confirmed the reduction of basement membrane proteins such as laminin (LN) alpha3, beta3, and gamma2 (laminin-5/LN-5) and of receptors for LN-5 such as integrins alpha3, alpha6, or beta4 in MDCK/snail or in snail-expressing A431 (A431/snail) cells. Nevertheless, suppression of LN-alpha3 chain by transient transfection of small interference RNAs resulted in no enhancement of cell detachment. We also found an induction of matrix metalloproteinase-3 in MDCK/snail and A431/snail cells. However, the inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase-3 showed no significant effect on the detachment of MDCK/snail cells. These results suggest that snail enhances cell detachment by multiple mechanism and leads to cell migration and reattachment at a second site, at least in part, by changing the expression of integrins in the cells.
