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

backgroundGastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in China. Most GC patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, for that the prognosis is dismal and metastasis is common. Although there have been increasing numbers of studies indicating that Ubenimex can suppress metastasis in GC, the underlying mechanism is still unknown.

methodsHerein, the inhibitory effect of Ubenimex on GC metastasis, in which the underlining mechanism was determined using Gene chip analysis, high content screening (HCS), transwell assays, wound healing assays and Western blot assays.

resultsThe results obtained from wound healing assays and transwell assays indicated that Ubenimex, an inhibitor of CD13, suppressed the migration and invasion of MKN-28, MGC-803, BGC-823 and SGC-790 cells, by downregulating CD13 expression. In addition, the findings acquired from Gene chip analysis and HCS demonstrated that NGFI-A-binding protein 1 (NAB1) was a putative target downstream of CD13. Furthermore, the results obtained from Western blot assays showed that Ubenimex not only inhibits NAB1 expression by targeting CD13, but also inhibits GC metastasis by mitigating the activity of the MAPK signaling pathway. These findings indicated a possible mechanism via the CD13/NAB1/MAPK pathway of which activity was restrained.

conclusionUbenimex exert the inhibitory effect on GC metastasis by targeting CD13, in which NAB1 expression and the activation of MAPK signaling pathway were both suppressed. This study identified a promising target for the inhibition of GC metastasis.
