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

Epigenetic drugs such as histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) possess anticancer properties due to its ability to regulate genes associated with tumor growth, differentiation, apoptosis and metastasis. In addition to its apoptotic effect, phenylbutyrate (PB), a carboxylic acid HDACI, inhibited an anaplastic (ATC) thyroid cancer cell line ARO from penetrating a matrigel coated transwell with concomitant suppression of a metastasis-associated gene, matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) and stimulation of a transformation suppressor protein, reversion-inducing- cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs without affecting MMP-2 expression levels. Direct evidence suggesting MMP-7 down-regulated cancer metastasis came from the observation of a decreased pulmonary metastasis in SCID mice xeno-transplanted with MMP-7-knocked-down ARO cells. In addition, H-89, a protein kinase A inhibitor, remarkably restored the down-regulaed MMP-7 level treated by PB. Thus, the suppressive effect of PB on MMP-7 was partially carried out through H3 phosphoacetylation. To conclude, our findings suggest PB inhibits MMP-7 expression epigenetically through phosphoacetylation of histone proteins, and thereby, reduced invasive ability of an ATC thyroid cancer cell line.
