ALCAP2 inhibits lung adenocarcinoma cell proliferation, migration and invasion via the ubiquitination of β-catenin by upregulating the E3 ligase NEDD4L.

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
Lung cancer is recognized as the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) being the predominant subtype, accounting for approximately 85% of lung cancer cases. Although great efforts have been made to treat lung cancer, no proven method has been found thus far. Considering β, β-dimethyl-acryl-alkannin (ALCAP2), a natural small-molecule compound isolated from the root of Lithospermum erythrorhizon. We found that lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cell proliferation and metastasis can be significantly inhibited after treatment with ALCAP2 in vitro, as it can induce cell apoptosis and arrest the cell cycle. ALCAP2 also significantly suppressed the volume of tumours in mice without inducing obvious toxicity in vivo. Mechanistically, we revealed that ALCAP2-treated cells can suppress the nuclear translocation of β-catenin by upregulating the E3 ligase NEDD4L, facilitating the binding of ubiquitin to β-catenin and eventually affecting the wnt-triggered transcription of genes such as survivin, cyclin D1, and MMP9. As a result, our findings suggest that targeting the oncogene β-catenin with ALCAP2 can inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of LUAD cells, and therefore, ALCAP2 may be a new drug candidate for use in LUAD therapeutics.
