Effect of microrna-138 on epithelial-Mesenchymal transition and invasion of breast cancer cells by targeting semaphorin 4C.
Article in Bioengineered, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In view of the role of miR-138 in cancer cells, we predicted the target of miR-138 and its targeting to SEMA4C by bioinformatics software and luciferase experiment. The expression levels of miR-138 in human normal breast epithelial cells and two kinds of BC cells were compared, and the transfection cells were selected. MiR-138 mimetic negative control (miR-NC), miR-138 mimic and miR-138 inhibitor were designed for cell transfection. The results showed that the expression level of miR-138 in MCF-7 cells was the lowest. The up regulation of miR-138 would lead to the high expression of E-cad and the low expression of N-cad, vim and SEMA4C, and the vitality and invasion of BC cells would decrease. The down regulation of miR-138 would lead to the low expression of E-cad and the high expression of N-cad, vim and SEMA4C, and the vitality and invasion of BC cells would increase. miR-138 targeted regulation of SEMA4C can promote the expression of N-cad, inhibit the expression of E-cad, vim and SEMA4C, reverse the EMT of BC cells, and inhibit the activity and invasion of BC cells. MiR-138 has clinical potential as a tumor marker of BC.
