Antisense oligonucleotides targeting lncRNA AC104041.1 induces antitumor activity through Wnt2B/β-catenin pathway in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas.
Article in Cell death & disease, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 53 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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) contribute to the initiation and progression of various tumors, including head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC), which is a common malignancy with high morbidity and low survival rate. However, the mechanism of lncRNAs in HNSCC tumorigenesis remains largely unexplored. In this work, we identified a novel lncRNA AC104041.1 which is highly upregulated and correlated with poor survival in HNSCC patients. Moreover, AC104041.1 overexpression significantly promoted tumor growth and metastasis of HNSCC in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, AC104041.1 mainly located in the cytoplasm and could function as ceRNA (competing endogenous RNA) for miR-6817-3p, thereby stabilized Wnt2B, and consequently inducing β-catenin nuclear translocation and activation. Moreover, we demonstrate that salinomycin, which as a highly effective antibiotic in the elimination of cancer stem cells through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling, could enhance the inhibition of tumor growth by antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) targeting AC104041.1 in HNSCC cells and PDXs (patient-derived xenograft) model. Thus, our data provide preclinical evidence to support a novel strategy of ASOs targeting AC104041.1 in combination with salinomycin and may as a beneficial treatment approach for HNSCC.
