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

microRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in carcinogenesis. Typically, miRNAs downregulate the target expression by binding to the 3' UTR of mRNAs. However, recent studies have demonstrated that miRNAs can upregulate target gene expression, but its mechanism is not fully understood. We previously found that G-rich RNA sequence binding protein (GRSF1) mediates upregulation of miR-346 on hTERT gene. To explore whether GRSF1 mediate other miRNA's upregulation on their target genes, we obtained profile of GRSF1-bound miRNAs by Flag-GRSF1-RIP-deep sequencing and found 12 novel miRNAs, named miR-G. In this study, we focused on miR-G-10, which is highly expressed in cervical cancer tissues and cell lines and serum from patients with metastatic cervical cancer. miR-G-10 in cervical cancer cells significantly promoted migration/invasion and anoikis resistance in vitro and lung metastasis in vivo. Furthermore, miR-G-10 bound to the 3' UTR of PIK3R3 and upregulated its expression to activate the AKT/NF-κB signal pathway in a GRSF1-dependent manner, whereas miR-G-10 suppressed TIMP3 in the AGO2 complex to modulate the MMP9 signaling pathway in cervical cancer cells. Taken together, our findings may provide a new insight into the upregulation mechanism mediated by miRNAs and a potential biomarker for cervical cancer.
