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

Combination therapy has been considered as a potential method to overcome the BC chemoresistance. MicroRNAs (miRs) have been suggested as a therapeutic factor in the combination therapy of BC. This project aimed at examining the possible activity and molecular function of miR-424-5p and Taxol combination in the human BC cell line. MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with miR-424-5p mimics and Taxol, in a combined manner or separately. We used the MTT test for assessing the cell proliferation. In addition, flow-cytometry was used for evaluating apoptosis and cell-cycle. Expression levels of underlying molecular factors of miR-424-5p were assessed using western-blotting and qRT-PCR. The obtained results demonstrated that miR-424-5p repressed BC cell proliferation and sensitized these cells to Taxol treatment through the induction of apoptosis. Further investigations showed that miR-424-5p might increase BC chemosensitivity through the regulation of apoptosis-related factors including P53, Caspase-3, Bcl-2, and Bax as well as the proliferation-related gene c-Myc. Moreover, miR-424-5p restoration in combination with Taxol treatment decreased the colony formation by regulating Oct-4 and led to G2 arrest via modulating Cdk-2 expression. Western-blotting demonstrated that miR-424-5p may perform its anti-chemoresistance role by regulating the PD-L1 expression and controlling PTEN/PI3K/AKT/mTOR. Overall, the upregulation of miR-424-5p was indicated to upregulate the sensitivity of BC cells to treatment with Taxol. MiR-424-5p might regulate the chemosensitivity of the BC cell line by modulating PD-L1 and controlling the PTEN/mTOR axis. Therefore, the combination of miR-424-5p with Taxol would represent a novel procedure to treat against BC.
