Role of MEK-ERK signaling mediated adhesion of glioma cells to extra-cellular matrix: Possible implication on migration and proliferation.
Article in Annals of neurosciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
backgroundGlioblastoma represents the most common primary brain tumor with a worst prognosis despite developments in neurosurgery and chemoradiotherapy. Detachment of the cells from the primary tumor tissue is a prerequisite for their dispersion and spreading. Initial and incessant dispersal of tumor cells from the primary tumor tissue renders GBM refractory to comprehensive surgical removal and increases the chance of recurrence and poorer prognosis. PURPOSES: The current study was designed to investigate the effect of inhibition of MEK-ERK1/2 signaling by PD98059 and U0126 on the growth and migration of glioma cells as well as their adhesion to extracellular matrix.
methodsMEK-ERK1/2 signaling in U87-MG cells was inhibited by PD98059 and U0126. Migration, proliferation and adhesion were analyzed by scratch-wound assay, MTT assay, cell adhesion assay respectively.
resultsPD98059 and U0126 significantly not only reduced the proliferation of glioma cells and attenuated their migration but also increased their adhesion to gelatin of extracellular matrix.
conclusionThis study provides the evidence that inhibition of MEK-ERK1/2 signaling enhances the adhesion of glioma cells to gelatin/collagen component of ECM, and decreases the proliferation and migration of the glioma cells. We propose the possible rationale of association between ERK signaling and cell-cell adhesion molecules in glioma microenvironment which regulates the glioma initiation, growth and progression.
