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

Stem cell antigen (Sca)-1/Ly6A, a glycerophosphatidylinositol-linked surface protein, was found to be associated with murine stem cell- and progenitor cell-enriched populations, and also has been linked to the capacity of tumor-initiating cells. Despite these interesting associations, this protein's functional role in these processes remains largely unknown. To identify the mechanism underlying the protein's possible role in mammary tumorigenesis, Sca-1 expression was examined in Sca-1(+/EGFP) mice during carcinogenesis. Mammary tumor cells derived from these mice readily engrafted in syngeneic mice, and tumor growth was markedly inhibited on down-regulation of Sca-1 expression. The latter effect was associated with significantly elevated expression of the TGF-β ligand growth differentiation factor-10 (GDF10), which was found to selectively activate TGF-β receptor (TβRI/II)-dependent Smad3 phosphorylation. Overexpression of GDF10 attenuated tumor formation; conversely, silencing of GDF10 expression reversed these effects. Sca-1 attenuated GDF10-dependent TGF-β signaling by disrupting the heterodimerization of TβRI and TβRII receptors. These findings suggest a new functional role for Sca-1 in maintaining tumorigenicity, in part by acting as a potent suppressor of TGF-β signaling.
