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

Glycosylation of cell surface proteins regulates critical cellular functions, including invasion and metastasis in cancer cells. Emerging evidence has shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in regulating both the glycosylation modifications on cell surface and the progression of cancer. In this study, we investigated the role of miR-9 in α-2,6-linked sialylation and the metastasis of mouse hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). According to array-based miRNA expression profiling data of HCC cell lines Hepa1-6, Hca-P, and Hca-F with different lymphatic metastatic capacities, reverse correlation was found between miR-9 expression levels and the metastatic potential in these HCC cells. Additionally, β-galactoside α-2,6-sialyltransferase 1 (St6gal1) expression level is associated negatively with miR-9 and positively with metastatic potential. Bioinformatics analysis indicated that miR-9 could target St6gal1, which was verified by luciferase reporter assays. miR-9 overexpression reduced expression of St6gal1, which subsequently suppressed HCC cells metastatic potential. Moreover, upregulation of miR-9 could inhibit integrin-β1/FAK-mediated cell motility and migration signaling in mouse HCC cells. Together, our results suggest that miR-9 could act as a tumor suppressor and regulate mouse HCC cells migration and invasion by inhibiting the α-2,6-linked sialylation. This finding may provide insight into the relationship between abnormal miRNA expression and aberrant cell surface glycosylation during tumor lymphatic metastasis.
