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

backgroundLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), a widespread histopathological subtype of lung cancer, is deemed as a malignant tumor with a peak risk of mortality. Emerged as RNA with a loop structure that depleted protein coding ability, circular RNA (circRNA) has been identified as a regulator in cancer progression. Circ-SOX4, identified as a novel circRNA, has not been studied in any cancer yet. Thus, the regulatory function that circ-SOX4 exerts on LUAD development remains obscure. AIM OF THE STUDY: This study aimed to investigate the biological function and molecular mechanism of circ-SOX4 in LUAD.

methodsThe expression of circ-SOX4 was detected by qRT-PCR. CCK-8, colony formation, transwell and wound healing assays were performed to explore the biological function of circ-SOX4 in LUAD. The interaction between miR-1270 and circ-SOX41 (or PLAGL2) was confirmed by RNA pull down, luciferase reporter and RIP assays.

resultsCirc-SOX4 was found to be obviously upregulated in LUAD tissues and cells, and knockdown of it inhibited cell proliferation, invasion and migration in LUAD. Furthermore, silenced circ-SOX4 also inhibited LUAD tumor growth. Molecular mechanism assays revealed that circ-SOX4 interacted with miR-1270 in LUAD. Besides, PLAGL2 was confirmed as a downstream gene of miR-1270. Rescue assays validated that miR-1270 suppression or PLAGL2 overexpression countervailed circ-SOX4 depletion-mediated inhibition on cell proliferation, invasion and migration in LUAD. Additionally, it was discovered that circ-SOX4/miR-1270/PLAGL2 axis activated WNT signaling pathway in LUAD.

conclusionsCirc-SOX4 boosted the development of LUAD and activate WNT signaling pathway through sponging miR-1270 and modulating PLAGL2, which provided a valuable theoretical basis for exploring underlying therapeutic target in LUAD.
