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

backgroundAccumulating evidence has emphasized causative links between aberrant microRNA (miR) expression patterns and cancer development. Abnormally expressed miRNA-98 (miR-98) was found in certain types of human cancers. The biological roles of miR-98 in lung cancer, however, remain largely undefined.

methodsWe evaluated the expression of miR-98 in normal lung tissues, lung cancer tissues, normal human bronchial epithelial cells, and lung cancer cells using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Effect of miR-98 on proliferation of lung cancer cells was investigated using MTT assay and colony formation assay. Transwell assay was used to assess the effects of miR-98 on migration and invasion of lung cancer cells. Whether miR-98 targets the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of integrin β3 (ITGB3) coding gene ITGB3 mRNA was ascertained using luciferase reporter assay. Finally, we transplanted miR-98 expressing A549 cells into nude mice to observe the effect of miR-98 on tumor growth in vivo.

resultsWe confirmed that miR-98 was frequently low expressed in lung cancer tissues and human lung cancer cells. Reintroduction of miR-98 into lung cancer cells inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro and suppressed tumor formation in a nude mouse model. Furthermore, we identified that miR-98 exerted inhibitory roles by directly binding to 3'-UTR of ITGB3 mRNA, thus negatively regulated the expression of ITGB3. Interestingly, upon restoring the expression of ITGB3, the effect of miR-98 on cell proliferation was partially reversed.

conclusionOur findings suggest that miR-98 prevents proliferation, migration, and invasion of lung cancer cells by directly binding to the 3'-UTR of ITGB3 mRNA and could be a promising treatment option in anticancer therapy.
