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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been found to play a key role in drug resistance. In the current study, we aimed to explore the potential role of miR-126 in trastuzumab resistance in breast cancer cells. We found that the trastuzumab-resistant cell lines SKBR3/TR and BT474/TR had low expression of miR-126 and increased ability to migrate and invade. The resistance, invasion and mobilization abilities of the cells resistant to trastuzumab were reduced by ectopic expression of miR-126 mimics. In comparison, inhibition of miR-126 in SKBR3 parental cells had the opposite effect of an increased resistance to trastuzumab as well as invasion and migration. It was also found that miR-126 directly targets PIK3R2 in breast cancer cells. PIK3R2-knockdown cells showed decreased resistance to trastuzumab, while overexpression of PIK3R2 increased trastuzumab resistance. In addition, our finding showed that overexpression of miR-126 reduced resistance to trastuzumab in the trastuzumab-resistant cells and that inhibition of the PIK3R2/PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling pathway was involved in this effect. SKBR3/TR cells also showed increased sensitivity to trastuzumab mediated by miR-126 in vivo. In conclusion, the above findings demonstrated that overexpression of miR-126 or down-regulation of its target gene may be a potential approach to overcome trastuzumab resistance in breast cancer cells.
