Regulation of IKKε Expression by Akt2 Isoform.
Article in Genes & cancer, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
The inhibitor of κ B kinase-ε (IKKε), a breast cancer oncogene, functions as a transforming kinase by activating NF-κB. IKKε is often elevated in breast cancers in the absence of any gene amplification. Because Akt-mediated transformation was shown to require IKKε, we examined if Akt regulates IKKε level in breast cancer cells. Knockdown of Akt2, but not other Akt isoforms, decreased the basal and TNF-induced IKKε protein and mRNA level, and overexpression of Akt2 in MDA-MB-231 cells increased IKKε level. The decrease in IKKε level by Akt2 knockdown was not only restricted to MDA-MB-231 cells but was also observed in several other breast cancer cells, including HCC1937 and MCF-10CA1a cells. Knockdown of p65/RelA subunit of NF-κB decreased IKKε level and attenuated the increase in IKKε caused by Akt2 overexpression, suggesting that Akt2-mediated induction of IKKε involves NF-κB activation. Silencing of IKKε also decreased long-term clonogenic survival of Akt2-overexpressing MDA-MB-231 cells. Taken together, these results demonstrate for the first time that IKKε functions downstream of Akt2 to promote breast cancer cell survival.
