PPFIBP1 induces glioma cell migration and invasion through FAK/Src/JNK signaling pathway.
Article in Cell death & disease, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 32 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
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive brain tumor, with a 5-year survival ratio <5%. Invasive growth is a major determinant of the poor prognosis in GBM. In this study, we demonstrate that high expression of PPFIA binding protein 1 (PPFIBP1) correlates with remarkable invasion and poor prognosis of GBM patients. Using scratch and transwell assay, we find that the invasion and migration of GBM cells are promoted by overexpression of PPFIBP1, while inhibited by knockdown of PPFIBP1. Then, we illustrate that overexpression of PPFIBP1 facilitates glioma cell infiltration and reduces survival in xenograft models. Next, RNA-Seq and GO enrichment analysis reveal that PPFIBP1 regulates differentially expressed gene clusters involved in the Wnt and adhesion-related signaling pathways. Furthermore, we demonstrate that PPFIBP1 activates focal adhesion kinase (FAK), Src, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and c-Jun, thereby enhancing Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 expression probably through interacting with SRCIN1 (p140Cap). Finally, inhibition of phosphorylation of Src and FAK significantly reversed the augmentation of invasion and migration caused by PPFIBP1 overexpression in GBM cells. In conclusion, these findings uncover a novel mechanism of glioma invasion and identify PPFIBP1 as a potential therapeutic target of glioma.
