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

backgroundMulti-drug resistance and predisposition to metastasize are major clinical problems in cancer treatment. Malignant primary brain tumor and pancreatic cancer are two well-known examples of malignant tumors resistant to conventional therapies where aberrant EGFR-mediated and NF-κB signal transduction pathways are likely to play an important role. We have recently identified 1,3-Dichloro-6-[(E)-((4-methoxyphenyl)imino)methyl] diben-zo(b,d) furan-2,7-diol (D11) as a potent and selective inhibitor of CK2 a serine/threonine protein kinase that modulates the aforementioned signaling cascades.

methodsHuman cancer cell lines (glioblastoma and pancreatic adenocarcinoma) resistant to conventional chemotherapeutic agents were incubated with increasing concentrations of D11 for variable amounts of time. Cell viability, cell death and effects on major signal transduction pathways deregulated in cancer cells were analyzed by ELISA, FACS and Western blot-based assays, respectively. Moreover, effects on cell migration and in cell protein-protein association were investigated by wound-healing and in situ proximity ligation assays, respectively.

resultsWe show here, that D11 treatment leads to i) significant caspase-mediated apoptotic cell death, ii) down-regulation of EGFR expression and iii) inhibition of NF-κB transcriptional activity. Furthermore, cell exposure to D11 results in impaired cell migration and correlates with reduced expression of the ion co-transporter and cell volume regulator Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) (NKCC1).

conclusionsData reported here underline the therapeutic potential of D11 with respect to certain types of cancer that carry aberrant intracellular signaling cascades and/or exhibit sustained cell migration and suggest a new therapeutic strategy against chemotherapy resistance.
