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

A previous study revealed that DEP domain containing 1 (DEPDC1) is involved in the carcinogenesis of bladder cancer via forming a complex with zinc finger protein 224 (ZNF224) to suppress A20 expression, resulting in the activation of the nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling pathway; however, the role of DEPDC1 in liver cancer remains unclear. Hep G2 cells were treated with 11R-DEP: 611-628, a peptide capable of disrupting the DEPDC1-ZNF224 complex. Cell proliferation was examined using an MTT assay and apoptosis was analyzed via detection of the apoptotic marker caspase-3 using western blot analysis. A20 expression was examined via reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and NF-κB subcellular localization was determined via immunofluorescence staining. microRNA (miR)-130a was overexpressed in HepG2 cells and its effects on proliferation and apoptosis were examined. The results demonstrated that 11R-DEP: 611-628 (3 µM) and miR-130a inhibited cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis in HepG2 cells by activating A20 expression, which blocks the nuclear transportation of NF-κB. In addition, the results demonstrated that the 11R-DEP: 611-628 (3 µM) treatment resulted in downregulation of DEPDC1 expression, indicating that DEPDC1 expression is regulated by the DEPDC1-ZNF224 complex. In conclusion, the data indicated that DEPDC1 suppresses apoptosis to promote cell proliferation through the NF-κB signaling pathway in HepG2 cells and that DEPDC1 is a potential target for the treatment of liver cancer.
