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

Current reports refer to the role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) prostate androgen-regulated transcript 1 (PART1) as a tumor suppressor in some types of cancer but as an oncogene in other kinds of cancer. In gastric cancer, it had been reported to be downregulated. However, the clinical significance and underlying mechanism of PART1 function in gastric cancer remains undefined. Here, seven differential expression levels of noncoding RNAs (DE-lncRNAs) were screened from gastric cancer through a probe reannotation of a human exon array. PART1 was selected for further study because of its high fold change number. In our cohort, PART1 was identified as a significant downregulated lncRNA in gastric cancer tissues by qPCR and in situ hybridization (ISH), and its low expression was significantly correlated with postoperative metastasis and short overall survival time after surgery. Through the results of gain-of-function experiments, PART1 was confirmed as a tumor suppressor that can decrease not only cell viability, migration, and invasion in vitro but also tumorigenesis and tumor metastasis in vivo. Mechanistically, RNA pull-down and RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) showed that PART1 interacts with androgen receptor (AR), and then, promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger (PLZF) is upregulated in an androgen-independent manner. In a chain reaction, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay additionally illustrated that PLZF upregulation increased the enrichment of EZH2 and H3K27 trimethylation in the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGFB) promotor, thereby inhibition of PDGFB and the subsequent PDGFRβ/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Based on these findings, we showed PART1 plays a tumor suppressor role by promoting PLZF expression followed by recruitment of EZH2 to mediate epigenetic PDGFB silencing and downstream PI3K/Akt inhibition, suggesting that PART1 has a key role in restraining the aggressive ability of GC cells and providing a novel perspective on lncRNAs in GC progression.
