miR-30a-5p Regulates Viability, Migration, and Invasion of Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells via Targeting ECT2.
Article in Computational and mathematical methods in medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 7 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
objectiveThe abnormal expression of epithelial cell transforming sequence 2 (ECT2) is often considered the driving factor for the growth and invasion of tumors. This study was performed to investigate the regulatory effect of miR-30a-5p and ECT2 on lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), which provides a basis for the effective clinical treatment of LUAD.
methodsThe mature miRNAs, expression data of mRNAs, and clinical data of LUAD were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The expression levels of ECT2 mRNA and miR-30a-5p in cancer cell lines were detected by qRT-PCR. Western blot was performed to test the expression of ECT2 protein. The targeting relationship between miR-30a-5p and ECT2 was verified by dual-luciferase assay. The CCK-8 method and Transwell assay were conducted to test the viability, migratory, and invasive abilities of cells.
resultsECT2 expression was upregulated in LUAD and was significantly correlated with the LUAD clinical stage and pathologic T stage, and the expression of its upstream regulatory gene miR-30a-5p was downregulated. miR-30a-5p targeted ECT2 in LUAD. Downregulation of ECT2 could inhibit the viability, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells, which could be reversed by simultaneously suppressing the expression of miR-30a-5p.
conclusionOur results suggested that miR-30a-5p repressed the malignant progression of LUAD via downregulating ECT2. miR-30a-5p and ECT2 may be effective targets for LUAD patients.
