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) has an unwelcoming prognosis when diagnosed at an advanced stage. The purpose of this study was to examine the expression of myosin heavy chain 11 (MYH11) in GC and mechanisms related.

methodsThe MYH11 expression in GC was investigated via the SangerBox platform. MYH11 expression in GC tissues and cell lines was examined by immunohistochemistry, RT-qPCR, and western blot. The relationship between MYH11 expression and patients' prognosis was analyzed. The effects of MYH11 on the biological behaviors of GC cells were investigated by gain-of-function experiments. Bioinformatics analysis was used to find genes with relevance to MYH11 expression in GC. The relationship was verified by luciferase and ChIP-qPCR assays, followed by rescue assay validation. The causes of MYH11 downregulation in GC were verified by quantitative methylation-specific PCR. Finally, the effect of MYH11 on tumor growth was examined.

resultsMYH11 was downregulated in GC and predicted poor prognoses. MYH11 reverted the malignant phenotype of GC cells. MYH11 repressed the TNFRSF14 expression by binding to the TNFRSF14 promoter. TNFRSF14 reversed the inhibitory effect of MYH11 on the malignant phenotype of GC cells. The methylation of the MYH11 promoter was elevated in GC, which was correlated with the elevated DNMT3B in GC. Overexpression of DNMT3B repressed transcription of MYH11 by promoting its methylation. Also, MYH11 upregulation inhibited tumor growth.

conclusionDNMT3B inhibits MYH11 expression by promoting its DNA methylation, thereby attenuating the repressive effect of MYH11 on the transcriptional of TNFRSF14 and promoting the progression of GC.
