GSK-3β mediates the effects of HNF-1β overexpression in ovarian clear cell carcinoma.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Deubiquitinase USP28 is a target gene of the transcription factor HNF1 homeobox β (HNF-1β), which promotes the survival of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) cell lines. However, the pharmacological inhibition of HNF-1β can cause several adverse effects as it is abundantly expressed in numerous organ systems, including the kidney, liver, pancreas and digestive tract. Therefore, small interfering RNA (siRNA) screening was performed in the current study to identify other potential downstream targets of the HNF-1β-mediated pathway. The results revealed that glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) may be a potential downstream target affecting cell viability. To further clarify the effects of GSK-3β, two human OCCC cell lines, TOV-21G (HNF-1β overexpressing line) and ES2 (HNF-1β negative) were transfected with siRNA targeting GSK-3β or control vectors. Loss-of-function studies using RNAi-mediated gene silencing indicated that HNF-1β facilitated GSK-3β expression, resulting in the loss of phosphorylated nuclear factor-κB (p-NFκB) and the reduction of TOV-21G cell proliferation. The cell proliferation assay also revealed that GSK-3β inhibitors rescued the effects of HNF-1β silencing on cell viability in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the GSK-3β inhibitor, AR-A014418, effectively inhibited tumor cell proliferation in a xenograft mouse model. In conclusion and to the best of our knowledge, the current study was the first to determine that GSK-3β is a target gene of HNF-1β. In addition, the results of the present study revealed the novel HNF-1β-GSK-3β-p-NFκB pathway, occurring in response to DNA damage. Targeting this pathway may therefore represent a putative, novel, anticancer strategy in patients with OCCC.
