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

backgroundThe tumor protein p53-inducible nuclear protein 2 (TP53INP2), an autophagy protein, is essential for autophagosome formation. The deregulation of autophagy is associated with multiple human diseases, including cancer. The present study aims to explore the role of TP53INP2 in bladder cancer. MATERIALS AND

methodsQuantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the mRNA level. Relative TP53INP2 protein expression was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. The effect of TP53INP2 silencing on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of bladder cancer cells was investigated by CCK-8 detection kit and transwell assay. In addition, transfection and immunofluorescence were performed.

resultsIn this study, we report that high expression of TP53INP2 is correlated with poor patient survival in bladder cancer. Results demonstrate that the depletion of TP53INP2 inhibits the migration, invasion, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of bladder cancer cells. The underlying mechanism was explored. Results show that the TP53INP2 knockdown suppresses EMT by inhibiting the active non-phosphorylated β-catenin and decreasing the Snail1 levels. Furthermore, the glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3β) inhibitor IM-12 abrogates the effect of TP53INP2 silencing. Interestingly, the induction of autophagy partially abrogates the TP53INP2 knockdown-induced decrease in active β-catenin and inhibition of migration and invasion in bladder cancer cells.

conclusionIn summary, our results show that the downregulation of TP53INP2 inhibits EMT via the GSK-3β/β-catenin/Snail1 pathway in bladder cancer. The findings of this study uncover the novel role of TP53INP2 and offer new insights into bladder cancer clinical therapy.
