Antiaging gene Klotho regulates epithelial-mesenchymal transition and increases sensitivity to pemetrexed by inducing lipocalin-2 expression.

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
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is considered to serve an important role in the metastatic/invasive ability of cancer cells, in the acquisition of drug resistance, and in metabolic reprogramming. In the present study, it was hypothesized that the Klotho gene is involved in the metastatic/invasive ability of lung cancer. We previously reported an association between Klotho expression and overall survival in patients with small cell lung cancer and large cell neuroendocrine cancer. We also found that Klotho expression was associated with EMT-related molecules in lung squamous cell carcinoma. The present study aimed to analyze the function of the Klotho gene and to elucidate its relevance to the regulation of the EMT. For this purpose, GFP-Klotho plasmids were transfected into lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549) and cell lines with stable expression (A549/KL-1 and A549/KL-2) were established. A549/KL-1 cells expressed higher levels of Klotho protein by western blot analysis compared with A549/KL-2 cells. In western blotting of A549 and A549/KL-1 cells, the expression of the mesenchymal marker N-cadherin was found to be completely inhibited in A549/KL-1 cells suggesting that Klotho expression may regulate the EMT in cancer cells via the inhibition of N-cadherin. The results of the sensitivity tests demonstrated that A549/KL-1 cells were significantly more sensitive to pemetrexed compared with A549 cells (IC
