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

Radixin is an important member of the Ezrin-Radixin-Moesin protein family that is involved in cell invasion, metastasis and movement. microRNA (miR)-200b is a well-studied microRNA associated with the development of multiple tumors. Previous bioinformatics analysis has demonstrated that miR-200b has a complementary binding site in the 3'-untranslated region of radixin mRNA. The present study aimed to investigate the role of miR-200b in regulating radixin expression, cell proliferation and invasion in breast cancer. Breast cancer tissues at different Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) stages were collected; breast tissues from patients with hyperplasia were used as a control. miR-200b and radixin mRNA expression levels were tested by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. Radixin protein expression was detected by western blotting. The highly metastatic MDA-MB-231 cells were divided into four groups and transfected with a miR-negative control (NC), miR-200b mimic, small interfering (si)RNA-NC or siRNA targeting radixin. Cell invasion was evaluated by Transwell assay and cell proliferation was assessed by 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine staining. Compared with the control group, radixin mRNA expression was significantly higher in breast cancer tissues and increased with TNM stage. miR-200b expression levels exhibited the opposite trend. Radixin mRNA expression in breast cancer cells was notably higher, whereas miR-200b expression was lower compared with that in normal breast epithelial MCF-10A cells. The expression of radixin was higher, whereas miR-200b was lower in MDA-MB-231 cells compared with that in MCF-7 cells. miR-200b mimic or siRNA-radixin transfection downregulated the expression of radixin in MDA-MB-231 cells and attenuated the invasive and proliferative abilities of these cells. miR-200b-knockdown and radixin overexpression were associated with enhanced cell invasion in breast cancer. In conclusion, miR-200b regulates breast cancer cell proliferation and invasion by targeting radixin expression.
