Roles of DNA polymerase ζ in the radiotherapy sensitivity and oxidative stress of lung cancer cells.
Article in Cancer chemotherapy and pharmacology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPrevious reports stated that DNA polymerase ζ is highly expressed in lung cancer tissues. The present study aimed to investigate the roles and underlying mechanism of DNA polymerase ζ in lung cancer cell radioresistance.
methodsThe A549 and HCC827 cells were used to evaluate the effects of different doses of radiation on the mRNA and protein expressions of DNA polymerase ζ. Multiple assays, including PCR, western blot, flow cytometry, and EdU have been used to investigate the roles of DNA polymerase ζ on the cellular behaviors of A549 and HCC827 cells.
resultsThe mRNA and protein expression of REV7L in A549 and HCC827 cells were significantly increased after 6 Gy irradiation compared to the control group. In A549 and HCC827 cells, over-expression of polymerase ζ decreased the radiosensitivity, inhibited cell apoptosis as well as reduced oxidative stress; while the knockdown of polymerase ζ showed the opposite effects. Knockdown of Polymerase ζ in xenograft animal models significantly decreased tumor size and induced oxidative stress of tumor tissues after irradiation. DISCUSSION: Our results provided a theoretical basis for targeting DNA polymerase ζ to improve the radiosensitivity of the lung cancer cells to radiotherapy.
