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

purposeInhibition of phosphoinositide 3 (PI3)-kinase pathway is attractive for cancer treatment. To examine the role of the phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) in the development of resistance to the treatment.

methodsWe cultured human prostate cancer cells (DU145 and PC-3 cells) and bladder cancer cells (EJ-1 and UM-UC-3 cells) with a PI3-kinase inhibitor, LY294002 for more than 6 weeks and cell proliferation was studied. Activation of Akt1 and ERK was examined by immunoblotting. We introduced the wild type PTEN in UM-UC-3 cells and their proliferation along with the signaling pathways was also examined.

resultsAfter 6 weeks, proliferation pathway sensitivity to LY294002 was reduced in cells expressing PTEN, but not in PTEN-null cells. PD98059, a MAPK/ERK kinase inhibitor, significantly inhibited proliferation of PTEN-expressing cells, but not PTEN-null cells. Stable PTEN expression in PTEN-null UM-UC-3 cells increased serum-induced ERK activation and sensitivity to PD98059-treatment, and reduced sensitivity to LY294002 after 6 weeks of exposure.

conclusionsLoss of PTEN function may protect against resistance to PI3-kinase inhibitors through an addiction to the PI3-kinase/Akt pathway.
