A triterpenoid saponin from Adenophora triphylla var. japonica suppresses the growth of human gastric cancer cells via regulation of apoptosis and autophagy.
Article in Tumour biology : the journal of the International Society for Oncodevelopmental Biology and Medicine, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
In the present study, we investigated the effects of 3-O-β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)]-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-28-O-[α-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-α-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-D-fucopyranosyl] quillaic acid, named compound 1, on the induction of apoptosis and autophagy in human gastric cancer AGS cells. Compound 1, a triterpenoid saponin isolated from the root of Adenophora triphylla var. japonica, effectively inhibited the growth of AGS cells by inducing apoptosis, as well as autophagy. Apoptosis by compound 1 treatment was associated with activation of caspases, release of cytochrome c, and increased ratio of Bax/Bcl-2. Autophagy by compound 1 treatment was indicated by LC3-II protein expression. We also found an increase in phosphorylation of p38 and JNK and a decrease in phosphorylation of ERK and Akt after compound 1 treatment. Furthermore, pretreatment with p38 inhibitor SB202190 completely inhibited compound 1-induced activation of caspases and cleavage of PARP1, whereas pretreatment with SB202190 synergistically increased the protein expression of LC3-II. These results suggest that compound 1 distinctly induces apoptotic and autophagic cell death and the increased autophagy by SB202190 protects compound 1-induced AGS cell death. Our findings provide an important clue for exploring the potential anticancer role of compound 1.
