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

Recent investigations have highlighted that therapeutic artificial microRNAs could be promising candidates for cancer therapy through the modulation of tumor promoter or suppressor. MEK kinase 1 (MEKK1) is expressed by mitogen-activated kinase kinase kinase 1 (MAP3K1), an important kinase that links Ras activation to MAPK signaling. In the present study, we showed that synthetic MAP3K1-targeting artificial miRNA may provide considerable beneficial effects in the prevention of breast cancer growth and metastasis. We showed that MEKK1 was highly expressed in human breast cancer specimens, compared with adjacent normal tissues. Using a miRNA-expressing lentivirus system, we delivered a artificial miRNA (Map3k1 amiRNA) that targets MAP3K1 into 4T1 breast cancer cells and investigated the impact of MAP3K1-targeting miRNA on the growth and invasive behavior of breast cancer in vitro and in vivo. We found that overexpression of Map3k1 amiRNA led to impaired activities of p-ERK and p-p38. In addition, Map3k1 amiRNA induced marked proliferative impairment and invasive attenuation in breast cancer cells. However, Map3k1 amiRNA did not have evident influence on the apoptotic response of 4T1 cells. Moreover, using in vivo nude mice model, we identified that Map3k1 amiRNA attenuated tumor growth and lung metastasis of breast cancer cells. Taken together, our findings explicitly indicated that MEKK1 exerted important oncogenic property in breast cancer development, and MAP3K1-targeting artificial miRNA may provide promising therapeutic effects in the treatment of breast cancer.
