Implication of integrins α3β1 and α5β1 in invasion and anoikis of SK-Mel-147 human melanoma cells: non-canonical functions of protein kinase Akt.
Article in Aging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Downregulation of integrins α3β1 and α5β1 strongly decreased cell colony formation and in vitro invasion and markedly enhanced anoikis in SK-Mel-147 human melanoma cells. These modifications were accompanied by a marked increase in the levels of active Akt protein kinase, which indicated it played a non-canonical function in the melanoma cells. Pharmacological inhibition of Akt1, an Akt isozyme, in cells depleted of α3β1 or α5β1 restored their invasive activity, while inhibition of the Akt 2 isoform did not cause a visible effect. Similar to our previous results with the α2β1 integrin, this finding suggested that in signaling pathways initiated by α3β1 and α5β1, the Akt1 isoform performs a non-canonical function in regulating invasive phenotype of melanoma cells. In contrast, when the effects of Akt inhibitors on anoikis of the melanoma cells were compared, the Akt2 isoform demonstrated a non-canonical activity in which Akt2 suppression led to a significant attenuation of apoptosis in cells with downregulated α3β1 or α5β1. Our results were the first evidence that, in the same tumor cells, different integrins can control various manifestations of tumor progression through distinct signaling pathways that are both common to various integrins and specific to a particular receptor.
