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

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) gradually show critical regulatory roles in many malignancies. However, the lncRNAs implicated in colon cancer recurrence are largely unknown. In this study, we searched the lncRNAs associated with metastasis and recurrence of colon cancer using GEO datasets. We focused on a novel lncRNA long non-coding RNA associated with poor prognosis of colon cancer (LNAPPCC), which is highly expressed in colon cancer. Increased expression of LNAPPCC is positively associated with metastasis, recurrence, and poor survival of colon cancer patients. LNAPPCC promotes colon cancer cell proliferation, migration, and in vivo xenograft growth and liver metastasis. Mechanistic investigations revealed that LNAPPCC binds EZH2, represses the binding of EZH2 to PCDH7 promoter, downregulates histone H3K27me3 level in PCDH7 promoter, and activates PCDH7 expression. Intriguingly, we also found that PCDH7 activates ERK/c-FOS signaling, increases the binding of c-FOS to LNAPPCC promoter, and activates LNAPPCC expression. Therefore, LNAPPCC and PCDH7 form a positive regulatory loop via EZH2 and ERK/c-FOS. The positive correlations between the expression of LNAPPCC, PCDH7, phosphorylated ERK, and phosphorylated c-FOS are detected in colon cancer tissues. Furthermore, depletion of PCDH7 or the adding of ERK inhibitor abolished the oncogenic roles of LNAPPCC in colon cancer. In summary, this study identified a novel lncRNA LNAPPCC that is highly expressed in colon cancer and associated with poor prognosis of colon cancer patients. LNAPPCC exerts oncogenic roles in colon cancer via forming a positive feedback loop with PCDH7. Targeting LNAPPCC/EZH2/PCDH7/ERK/c-FOS signaling axis represents a potential therapeutic strategy for colon cancer.
