MicroRNA-142-3p Inhibits Tumorigenesis of Colorectal Cancer
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundAltered expression profile of microRNAs (miRNAs) was reported to be associated with colorectal cancer (CRC). The aims of this study are to identify the changed miRNAs in the plasma of CRC patients and explore the underlying mechanism of these miRNAs during tumorigenesis.
methodsPlasma miRNA expression profiles were compared between healthy people and CRC patients. MiRNA expression was measured using quantitative real-time PCR. Colony formation and MTT assays were used to test cell proliferation. Luciferase assay, immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were employed to explore the molecular mechanism.
resultsMiR-142-3p level was found as the most significantly repressed miRNA in CRC patients. Overexpression of miR-142-3p dramatically repressed colony formation and cell proliferation of both HT29 and HCT116 cells while inhibition of miR-142-3p promoted those of the cells. Interestingly, overexpression of miR-142-3p reduced the level and nuclear accumulation of β-catenin. We further observed that miR-142-3p remarkably inhibited the transcriptional activity of β-catenin gene (CTNNB1). However, mutations in the predicted binding sites blocked this inhibition, suggesting that miR-142-3p may directly bind to the mRNA of β-catenin.
conclusionIn conclusion, we identified miR-142-3p exerts its function as a tumor suppressor through blocking the activation of Wnt signaling by directly targeting to CTNNB1.
