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

backgroundInflammation is one of a main reason for colon cancer progression and poor prognosis. The high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) are responsible for inflammation, but the relationship between HMGB1 and GPX4 remains unknown about inflammation in colon cancer.

methodsRT-qPCR was carried out to investigate the expression of IL1β, IL6 and TNFα in colon cancer cells stimulated with LPS or siHMGB1. To observe the relationship between HMGB1, GPX4 and inflammation or ROS, Western blot assays were adopted. Pull-down, CoIP and immunohistochemistry assays were performed to further investigate the molecular mechanisms of HMGB1 and GPX4 in colon cancer.

resultsWe report that HMGB1 mediates lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in colon cancer cells. Mechanistically, acetylated HMGB1 interacts with GPX4, negatively regulating GPX4 activity. Furthermore, by utilizing siHMGB1 and its inhibitor, our discoveries demonstrate that HMGB1 knockdown can inhibit inflammation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation via NF-kB.

conclusionCollectively, our findings first demonstrate that acetylated HMGB1 can interact with GPX4, leading to inflammation, and providing therapeutic strategies targeting HMGB1 and GPX4 for colon cancer.
