In vivo selection of highly metastatic human ovarian cancer sublines reveals role for AMIGO2 in intra-peritoneal metastatic regulation.
Article in Cancer letters, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
The majority of women with ovarian cancer are diagnosed with metastatic disease, therefore elucidating molecular events that contribute to successful metastatic dissemination may identify additional targets for therapeutic intervention and thereby positively impact survival. Using two human high grade serous ovarian cancer cell lines with inactive TP53 and multiple rounds of serial in vivo passaging, we generated sublines with significantly accelerated intra-peritoneal (IP) growth. Comparative analysis of the parental and IP sublines identified a common panel of differentially expressed genes. The most highly differentially expressed gene, upregulated by 60-65-fold in IP-selected sublines, was the type I transmembrane protein AMIGO2. As the role of AMIGO2 in ovarian cancer metastasis remains unexplored, CRISPR/Cas9 was used to reduce AMIGO2 expression, followed by in vitro and in vivo functional analyses. Knockdown of AMIGO2 modified the sphere-forming potential of ovarian cancer cells, reduced adhesion and invasion in vitro, and significantly attenuated IP metastasis. These data highlight AMIGO2 as a new target for a novel anti-metastatic therapeutic approach aimed at blocking cohesion, survival, and adhesion of metastatic tumorspheres.
