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

Dysregulation of PI3K and MAPK pathways promotes uncontrolled cell proliferation, apoptotic inhibition and metastasis. Individual targeting of these pathways using kinase inhibitors has largely been insufficient due to the existence of cross-talks between these parallel cascades. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs targeting several genes simultaneously and controlling cancer-related processes. To identify miRNAs repressing both PI3K and MAPK pathways in breast cancer, we re-analyzed our previous miRNA mimic screen data with reverse phase protein array (RPPA) output, and identified miR-564 inhibiting both PI3K and MAPK pathways causing markedly decreased cell proliferation through G1 arrest. Moreover, ectopic expression of miR-564 blocks epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and reduces migration and invasion of aggressive breast cancer cells. Mechanistically, miR-564 directly targets a network of genes comprising AKT2, GNA12, GYS1 and SRF, thereby facilitating simultaneous repression of PI3K and MAPK pathways. Notably, combinatorial knockdown of these target genes using a cocktail of siRNAs mimics the phenotypes exerted upon miR-564 expression. Importantly, high miR-564 expression or low expression of target genes in combination is significantly correlated with better distant relapse-free survival of patients. Overall, miR-564 is a potential dual inhibitor of PI3K and MAPK pathways, and may be an attractive target and prognostic marker for breast cancer.
