Naphtho[1,2-b]furan-4,5-dione inhibits MDA-MB-231 cell migration and invasion by suppressing Src-mediated signaling pathways.
Article in Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 2014. 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
Naphtho[1,2-b]furan-4,5-dione (NFD), a bioactive component of Avicennia marina, has been demonstrated to display anti-cancer activity. Breast cancer is a highly malignant carcinoma and most deaths of breast cancer are caused by metastasis. In this study, we showed that NFD blocked migration and invasion of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells without affecting apoptosis or growth arrest. NFD caused significant block of Src kinase activity in MDA-MB-231 cells. Moreover, NFD treatment was correlated with reduced phosphorylation of FAK at Tyr 576/577, 861 and 925 sites, p130(Cas) at Tyr 410, and paxillin at Tyr 118. NFD also suppressed the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt. Consistent with inhibition of these signaling pathways and invasion, NFD reduced the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9. Furthermore, Src antagonist PP2 caused a significant decrease in the phosphorylation of FAK, p130(Cas), paxillin, and PI3K/Akt. Our findings provide evidences that NFD inhibits Src-mediated signaling pathways involved in controlling breast cancer migration and invasion, suggesting that it has a therapeutic potential in breast cancer treatment.
