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

backgroundAZD9291 resistance is still a challenge in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and fibroblasts in the tumor microenvironment (TME) play a key role in the malignant phenotype of NSCLC. The study aimed to investigate the role of exosomes derived from AZD9291-resistant cells on the phenotypes of lung fibroblasts and the underlying mechanism.

methodsThe supernatants and exosomes of wild type and AZD9291-resistant NSCLC (H1975/PC9) cells were collected, and co-cultured with lung fibroblasts (MRC-5 cells) respectively. Transwell and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) assays were used to evaluate migration and inflammation levels. Exosomes were collected by ultracentrifugation, and identified by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and western blots. Microarray was used to screen dysregulated exosomal lncRNAs from the resistant cells. Candidate lncRNAs were selected by bioinformatical annotation of their target genes and verified by qRT-PCR. The target lncRNA was then selected for further confirmation.

resultsBoth the supernatant and exosomes from resistant cells significantly promoted the migration of MRC-5 cells, and the exosomes also upregulated mRNA levels of inflammation cytokines. Microarray identified 159 dysregulated exosomal lncRNAs. Fifteen candidate lncRNAs were selected following the biological roles of their target genes. qRT-PCR validation indicated that lnc-MZT2A-5:1 had the highest fold change. Finally, we found that lnc-MZT2A-5:1 could promote the migration ability and inflammation cytokines expression level of MRC-5 cells.

conclusionsOur study clarified that lnc-MZT2A-5:1 from AZD9291-resistant NSCLC cell lines could promote the activation of MRC-5 cells, thus to uncover a new mechanism for AZD9291 resistance and provide new potential targets for the treatment of NSCLC.
