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

In this study, a novel FIP named FIP-sch3 has been identified and characterised. FIP-sch3 was identified in the ascomycete Stachybotrys chartarum, making it the second FIP to be identified outside the order of Basidiomycota. Recombinant FIP-sch3 (rFIP-shc3) was produced in Escherichia coli and purified using GST-affinity magnetic beads. The bioactive characteristics of FIP-sch3 were compared to those of well-known FIPs LZ-8 from Ganoderma lucidum and FIP-fve from Flammulina velutipes, which were produced and purified using the same method. The purified rFIP-sch3 exhibited a broad spectrum of anti-tumour activity in several types of tumour cells but had no cytotoxicity in normal human embryonic kidney 293 cells. Assays that were implemented to study these properties indicated that rFIP-sch3 significantly suppressed cell proliferation, induced apoptosis and inhibited cell migration in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells. The anti-tumour effects of rFIP-sch3 in A549 cells were comparable to those of rLZ-8, but they were significantly greater than those of rFIP-fve. Molecular assays that were built on real-time PCR further revealed potential mechanisms related to apoptosis and migration and that underlie phenotypic effects. These results indicate that FIP-shc3 has a unique anti-tumour bioactive profile, as do other FIPs, which provide a foundation for further studies on anti-tumour mechanisms. Importantly, this study also had convenient access to FIP-sch3 with potential human therapeutic applications.
