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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsGrowing evidence suggests that microRNA plays an essential role in the development and metastasis of many tumors, including gastric cancer (GC). Expression of microRNA-203 (miR-203) has been reported to decrease in GC. In addition, overexpression of miR-203 inhibits grow of GC cells in vitro and in vivo. However, whether miR-203 affects cell migration and invasion of GC remains unclear. This study aimed to reveal the role of miR-203 on migration and invasion of GC, and its potential mechanisms.

methodsSynthetic pre-miR-203 (miR-203), anti-miR-203 and scrambled negative control RNAs was transfected into the gastric cancer SGC7901 cells to generate miR-203 or anti-miR-203-transfected stable clones. The roles of miR-203 on cell invasion and motility were then analyzed by Transwell migration assay and Wound healing assay in vitro. Using siRNA to targeting ERK1/2, Slug, and E-cadherin or Slug cDNA transfection (to increase Slug expression) to examine the miR-203 signaling pathway. We also examined the efficacies of miR-203 or anti-miR-203 on peritoneal metastasis of SGC7901 cells in the nude mouse model.

resultsOverexpression of miR-203 inhibits SGC7901 cell invasion and motility, followed by decreased phospho-ERK1/2 (pERK1/2) and Slug expression, as well as increased E-cadherin expression. Re-expression of Slug in miR-203/SGC7901cells decreased E-cadherin expression and restored the invasive phenotypes. Targeting E-cadherin in miR-203/SGC7901cells also restored the invasive phenotypes. Inhibition of miR-203 promotes SGC7901 cell invasion and motility, followed by increased phospho-ERK1/2 (pERK1/2) and Slug expression, as well as decreased E-cadherin expression. Targeting ERK1/2 or Slug in anti-miR-203/SGC7901cells increased E-cadherin expression and reversed the invasive phenotypes. In addition, targeting ERK1/2 decreased Slug and increased the E-cadherin expression. Significantly, we found that miR-203 could exert marked inhibition of the peritoneal metastasis of SGC7901 in nude mice in vivo. Targeting miR-203 could exert marked promotion of the peritoneal metastasis of SGC7901 in nude mice in vivo.

conclusionsmiR-203/ERK1/2/Slug/E-cadherin signaling pathway plays an essential role on SGC7901 cell invasion and motility. miR-203 can be novel modalities to prevent peritoneal metastasis of invasive cancers such as gastric cancer.
