Circ_0006174 Accelerates Colorectal Cancer Progression Through Regulating miR-138-5p/MACC1 Axis.
Article in Cancer management and research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) were reported to be involved in the progression of a variety of cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the precise functions and mechanism of circRNAs in CRC have not been elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the effect and mechanism underlying circ_0006174 in CRC.
methodsThe expression of circ_0006174, microRNA (miR-138-5p) and metastasis associated in colon cancer 1 (MACC1) mRNA was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) assay. Western blot was employed to measure MACC1 protein expression. The effects of circ_0006174 knockdown, MACC1 overexpression or miR-138-5p inhibition on cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis were assessed by cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) assay, clone formation assay, transwell assay and flow cytometry assay, respectively. The interaction between miR-138-5p and circ_0006174 or MACC1 was confirmed by RNA pull down assay or dual-luciferase reporter assay. Xenograft tumor model in nude mice was used to verify the function of circ_0006174 in vivo.
resultsCirc_0006174 and MACC1 expression was highly expressed, while miR-138-5p expression was downregulated in CRC cells and tissues. Meanwhile, circ_0006174 functioned as a sponge of miR-138-5p to upregulate MACC1 expression. Furthermore, circ_0006174 knock down-mediated suppression on cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and promotion on cell apoptosis could be alleviated by MACC1 overexpression or miR-138-5p inhibition in CRC cells. Besides, circ_0006174 knockdown also inhibited CRC procession in vivo.
conclusionCirc_0006174 advanced CRC progression via sponging miR-138-5p to upregulate MACC1 expression, which may provide a promising molecular target for CRC treatment.
