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

Soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) is a heterodimeric enzyme constituted by two subunits, α1 and β1. Previously we have shown that 17β-estradiol (E2) exerts opposite effects on these subunits by increasing α1 and decreasing both β1 expression and enzymatic activity. To date, the physiological relevance of E2-induced sGC subunits' imbalance has not been addressed. Also, increased levels strongly correlate with E2-induced proliferation in E2-dependent tissues. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of sGCα1 in proliferation, survival, and migration in two E2-responsive and non-responsive tumour cell lines. Here we showed that E2 stimulated sGCα1 expression in ECC-1 endometrial cancer cells. sGCα1 knock-down significantly reduced E2-dependent cell proliferation. Moreover, sGCα1 silencing caused G1 arrest together with an increase in cell death and dramatically inhibited cell migration. Surprisingly, disruption of sGCα1 expression caused a similar effect even in absence of E2. Confirming this effect, sGCα1 knock-down also augmented cell death and decreased proliferation and migration in E2-unresponsive HeLa cervical cancer cells. Our results show that sGCα1 mediated cell proliferation, survival, and migration in ECC-1 and HeLa cells and suggest that sGCα1 can not only mediate E2-tumour promoting effects but can also be involved in hormone-independent tumour progression.
