Hydroalcoholic Extract of Levisticum officinale Increases cGMP Signaling Pathway by Down-Regulating PDE5 Expression and Induction of Apoptosis in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-468 Breast Cancer Cell Lines
Article in Iranian biomedical journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Background: This study aimed to investigate Levisticum officinale hydroalcoholic extract (LOHE) effect on both cGMP signaling pathway and phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) gene expression pattern and to examine the role of LOHE in apoptosis induction of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-468 cell lines. Methods: The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of LOHE was examined in both cell lines using the MTT assay. Using IC50 values of LOHE on both cells, the type of cell death was detected by flowcytometric analysis. The values of PDE5 and cGMP were evaluated by real-time PCR and ELISA methods, respectively. Results: The IC50 values were measured as 150 μg/ml for MDA-MB-468 and 200 μg/ml for MCF-7. At 12 hour of treatment, a significant decrease in the PDE5 expression and maximum increase in the amount of intracellular cGMP were observed (p < 0.05). However, these effects were more noticeable in MDA-MB-468 triple-negative cells. Conclusion: Our data suggest that LOHE extract could be a potential source for new strategies towards targeting both PDE5 and cGMP signaling pathways.
