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 understand the mechanisms behind platinum drug/DENSPM-induced inhibition of cancer cell growth, we compared the effects of oxaliplatin and cisplatin when combined with DENSPM on the induction of SSAT mRNA, activity, polyamines and cell growth in A2780 human ovarian carcinoma cells and their oxaliplatin- and cisplatin-resistant variants A2780/C10B and A2780/CP, respectively.

methodsParental and Pt-resistant cells were treated with platinum agent alone, DENSPM alone or combination (10 μM each, 20 h). QRT-PCR, radioactive product measurement and HPLC were used for mRNA, activity and polyamine pools, respectively; drug interaction on cell growth was by SRB and isobologram analysis.

resultsBoth platinum agents induced SSAT mRNA in parental A2780 cells, but not in resistant cells. Platinum drug/DENSPM combinations produced high levels of SSAT activity in parental cells with significant depletion of spermine and spermidine, but not in resistant cells. Co-treatment with platinum agents increased the levels of DENSPM in all cell lines. Oxaliplatin/DENSPM combination was superior to cisplatin/DENSPM in the inhibition of cell growth in parental cells. No synergy was observed in the resistant cells.

conclusionsIncreased DENSPM levels following co-treatment with Pt agents enhances the translation and stability of SSAT protein leading to polyamine pool depletion, facilitating more Pt-DNA adduct formation in parental cells. Oxaliplatin/DENSPM combination is superior to cisplatin/DENSPM in cell growth inhibition as DACH-Pt DNA adducts are cytotoxic even at relatively fewer numbers. Reduced platinum uptake in Pt-resistant cells contributes to reduced SSAT mRNA induction and absence of synergy when combined with DENSPM.
