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

backgroundBiological treatment of many cancers currently targets membrane bound receptors located on a cell surface. We are in a great to need identify novel membrane proteins associated with migration and metastasis of breast cancer cells. CD271, a single transmembrane protein belongs to tumor necrosis factor receptor family acts and play its role in proliferation of cancer cell. The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of CD271 in breast cancer. METHODS AND

resultsIn this study we analyzed the mRNA expression of CD271 in breast tumor tissue, breast cancer cell line MCF7 and isolated cancer stem cells (MCF7-CSCs) by RT-qPCR. We also measured the protein levels through western blotting in MCF-7 cell line. CD271 was upregulated in breast cancer patients among all age groups. Within the promoter region of CD271, there is a binding site for NF-κB1 which overlaps a putative quadraplex forming sequence. While CD271 also activates NF-κB pathway, down regulation of CD271 through quadraplex targeting resulted in inhibition of NF-κB and its downstream targets Nanog and Sox2.

conclusionIn conclusion, our data shows that CD271 and NF-κB are regulated in interdependent manner. Upon CD271 inhibition, the NF-κB expression also reduces which in turn affects the cell proliferation and migration. These results suggest that CD271 is playing a crucial rule in cancer progression by regulating NF-κB and is a good candidate for the therapeutic targeting.
