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

backgroundThe ubiquitous second messenger Ca(2+) has been demonstrated to play an important role in cancer progression. Store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) is the main Ca(2+) entry pathway regulating intracellular Ca(2+) concentration in a variety of cancer types. The present study aimed to explore the specific mechanisms of SOCE in the processes of glioma migration and invasion.

methodsThe expression of Orai1, a key component of SOCE, was examined in glioma samples and glioma cell lines by immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis. Both pharmacological intervention and RNA interference were employed to investigate the role of SOCE in glioma cell migration and invasion in vitro. The intracellular Ca(2+) was certified through Fluo-4/AM based Ca(2+) measurement. The effect of SOCE on cell viability, migration, and invasion was explored by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, wound healing assay, transwell invasion assay. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence assay were used to observe the changes of downstream related protein and cell morpholog.

resultsOrai1 expression was elevated in glioma tissues and several glioma cell lines compared with non-neoplastic brain tissues. Either inhibition of SOCE by a pharmacological inhibitor or Orai1 downregulation suppressed glioma cell migration and invasion. However, re-expression of Orai1 could rescue glioma cell motility. Furthermore, phosphorylation of proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) participated in the mechanisms by which SOCE regulated focal adhesion turnover and epithelial-to-mesenchymal (-like) transition in glioma cells, both of which are considered to be critical for tumor progression.

conclusionsThe SOCE-Pyk2 pathway is essential for glioma migration and invasion. The study indicates the potential value of Orai1 as a molecular target for anti-invasion therapy.
