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

objectivesExpression of dishevelled-1 (DVL1) has recently been linked to cancer progression, however, its role in resistance to cancer therapy is unclear. In this study, we aimed to explore the function of DVL1 in paclitaxel-resistant human ovarian cancer cells. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe MTT assay was used to assess effects of DVL1 silencing on sensitivity of cells that were otherwise resistant to paclitaxel (Taxol). Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining were used to examine effects of DVL1 on AKT/GSK-3β/β-catenin signalling.

resultsDishevelled-1 was found to be over-expressed in a paclitaxel-resistant cell line derived from human ovarian cancer cell line A2780 (A2780/Taxol line) as well as parental A2780 cells. Down-regulation of DVL1 (using the inhibitor 3289-8625 or siRNA (siDVL1) against DVL1) sensitized A2780/Taxol cells to paclitaxel. Over-expression of DVL1 in A2780 cells increased protein levels of P-gp, BCRP and Bcl-2, which are known targets of β-catenin. Silencing DVL1 in A2780/Taxol cells also reduced levels of these proteins, and led to accumulation of β-catenin. In addition, DVL1 aberrantly activated AKT/GSK-3β/β-catenin signalling. Inactivation of AKT signalling attenuated DVL1-mediated inhibition of GSK-3β and accumulation of β-catenin, in both A2780 and A2780/Taxol cells.

conclusionsTaken together, these results suggest that silencing DVL1 sensitized A2780/Taxol cells to paclitaxel, by down-regulating AKT/GSK-3β/β-catenin signalling, providing a novel strategy for chemosensitization of ovarian cancer to paclitaxel-induced cytotoxicity.
