6-Shogaol Antagonizes the Adipocyte-Conditioned Medium-Initiated 5-Fluorouracil Resistance in Human Colorectal Cancer Cells through Controlling the SREBP-1 Level.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The resistance of colorectal cancer (CRC) to chemotherapy, e.g., 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), is an impediment to successful cancer treatment. Although many mechanisms have been proposed to explain the occurrence of resistance, little is known concerning the role of the adipocyte-containing microenvironment of CRC. Accumulating data have proposed that the combined therapy of clinical drugs with ginger derivatives, e.g., 6-shogaol, might improve resistance development. In the present study, we examined the effect of adipocyte-conditioned medium (ACM) on 5-FU-treated CRC cells (human DLD-1 and SW480 cells) and further examined the possible antagonized role of 6-shogaol in this situation. It was shown that the level of sterol-regulatory element-binding protein-1 (SREBP-1), a critical transcription factor involved in lipid synthesis and metabolism, would be upregulated through Akt and p70S6K signaling pathways while CRC cells are cultured in ACM, which subsequently decreases the cell sensitivity to 5-FU cytotoxicity. Moreover, our results also demonstrated the antagonized role of 6-shogaol in attenuating the ACM effects on CRC cells through activating AMPK signaling. Overall, the present study elucidated the role of adipocyte-containing microenvironment in 5-FU resistance development of CRC through controlling the SREBP-1 level and further enhanced the concept of clinical application of 6-shogaol and AMPK signaling in CRC therapy.
