Microenvironmental Factors Drive Tenascin C and Src Cooperation to Promote Invadopodia Formation in Ewing Sarcoma.

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
Ewing sarcoma is a bone tumor most commonly diagnosed in adolescents and young adults. Survival for patients with recurrent or metastatic Ewing sarcoma is dismal and there is a dire need to better understand the mechanisms of cell metastasis specific to this disease. Our recent work demonstrated that microenvironmental stress leads to increased Ewing sarcoma cell invasion through Src activation. Additionally, we have shown that the matricellular protein tenascin C (TNC) promotes metastasis in Ewing sarcoma. A major role of both TNC and Src is mediation of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions resulting in changes in cell motility, invasion, and adhesion. However, it remains largely unknown, if and how, TNC and Src are linked in these processes. We hypothesized that TNC is a positive regulator of invadopodia formation in Ewing sarcoma through its ability to activate Src. We demonstrate here that both tumor cell endogenous and exogenous TNC can enhance Src activation and invadopodia formation in Ewing sarcoma. We found that microenvironmental stress upregulates TNC expression and this is dampened with application of the Src inhibitor dasatinib, suggesting that TNC expression and Src activation cooperate to promote the invasive phenotype. This work reports the impact of stress-induced TNC expression on enhancing cell invadopodia formation, provides evidence for a feed forward loop between TNC and Src to promote cell metastatic behavior, and highlights a pathway by which microenvironment-driven TNC expression could be therapeutically targeted in Ewing sarcoma.
