LncRNA AFAP1-AS1 Modulates the Proliferation and Invasion of Gastric Cancer Cells by Regulating AFAP1 via miR-205-5p.
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. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThe present study investigated the expression and function of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) actin filament associated protein 1 antisense RNA1 (AFAP1-AS1) related to gastric cancer (GC), based on previous results from a microarray analysis.
methodsReal-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to verify the expression of AFAP1-AS1 in 97 fresh GC tissues and paired non-GC tissues, as well as in six different GC cell lines (BGC-823, SGC-7901, MGC-803, AGS, MKN-45, and MKN-28). The expression levels were subsequently correlated with the clinicopathological features of patients. siRNA against AFAP1-AS1 was transfected into GC cell lines, and cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were detected before and after silencing of AFAP1-AS1 expression. Luciferase reporter gene analysis was used to confirm the target gene of microRNA-205-5p (miR-205-5p) in 293T cells. The potential mechanism was subsequently investigated.
resultsqPCR results showed that AFAP1-AS1 was significantly overexpressed in GC tumor tissues and also GC cell lines, comparing to their paired non-GC tissues. Furthermore, statistical analysis revealed that the overexpression of AFAP1-AS1 was significantly correlated with tumor size (
conclusionAFAP1-AS1, as a novel biomarker of GC, promotes the proliferation migration and invasion of GC cells and function as ceRNA to target AFAP1 by sponging miR-205-5p.
