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

backgroundProstate cancer often shows the over-activation of beta-catenin/t-cell factor (TCF) signaling. It remains largely unknown how the beta-catenin/TCF transcriptional machinery is tightly controlled.

methodsThe ZNF433 mRNA and protein levels in the clinical tissues were examined using q-PCR, Western blot and immunohistochemistry. The phenotypes of prostate cancer cells were examined using MTT assay, Boyden chamber assay and anchorage-independent assay. The interaction between ZNF433 and beta-catenin was evaluated by immunoprecipitation.

resultsIn the present study, ZNF433 was upregulated in prostate cancer samples, and promoted the growth and migration of prostate cancer cells. Furthermore, ZNF433 was the binding partner of beta-catenin and activated beta-catenin/TCF signaling in prostate cancer. Moreover, ZNF433 enhanced the binding between beta-catenin and TCF4. In addition, NC043, small antagonist for beta-catenin/TCF complex, inhibited the malignant behaviors of prostate cancer cells driven by ZNF433.

conclusionIn summary, these studies demonstrate the tumor-promoting roles of ZNF433 in prostate cancer, and suggesting that ZNF433 was a potential target for the treatment.
