Non-target Genes Regulate miRNAs-Mediated Migration Steering of Colorectal Carcinoma.

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.
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
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) trigger a two-layer regulatory network directly or through transcription factors and their co-regulators. Unlike miR-375, the role of miR-145 and miR-224 in inhibiting or driving cancer cell migration is controversial. This study is a step towards addressing the potential of miR-375, miR-145 and miR-224 expression modulation to inhibit colorectal carcinoma (CRC) cells migration in vitro through regulation of non-target genes VEGFA, TGFβ1, IGF1, CD105 and CD44. Transwell migration assay results revealed a significant subdue of migration ability of cells transfected with miR-375 and miR-145 mimics and miR-224 inhibitor. Real time PCR data showed that expression of VEGFA, TGFβ1, IGF1, CD105 and CD44 was downregulated as a consequence of exogenous re-expression of miR-375 and inhibition of miR-224. On the other hand, ectopic expression of miR-145 did not affect VEGFA, TGFβ1 and CD44 expression, while it elevated CD105 and suppressed IGF1 expression. MAP4K4, a predicted target of miR-145, was validated as a target that could play a role in miR-145-mediated regulation of migration. At mRNA level, no change was observed in expression of MAP4K4 in cells with restored expression of miR-145, while western blotting analysis revealed a 25% reduction of protein level. By applying luciferase reporter assay, a significant decrease in luciferase activity was observed, supporting that miR-145 directly target 3' UTR of MAP4K4. The study highlighted the involvement of non-target genes VEGFA, TGFβ1, IGF1, CD105 and CD44 in mediating anti- and pro-migratory effect of miR-375 and miR-224, respectively, and validated MAP4K4 as a direct target of anti-migratory miR-145.
