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

backgroundThe pervasive progression of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after treatment demands more effective drugs with few side effects. In the present study, we determined whether degalactotigonin (DGT) extracted from

methodsThe effects of DGT on RCC cells were assessed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, flow cytometry, invasion and migration assays and subcutaneous tumor xenograft experiments in nude mice. The related molecular mechanisms were delineated by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), western blotting, coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) and plasmid transfection.

resultsDGT induced apoptosis and suppressed the proliferation, invasion, migration, and tumorigenicity of RCC cells. Mechanistically, yes-associated protein (YAP) signaling was inactivated, and the expression of YAP and its target genes was reduced in degalactotigonin-treated RCC cells. Additionally, DGT activated phosphorylated large tumor suppressor 1/2 (p-LATS1/2) to phosphorylate YAP, which increased YAP retention in the cytoplasm but decreased the amount of YAP that entered the nuclei of RCC cells. Moreover, DGT impaired the increased aggressive features of RCC cells induced by YAP overexpression.

conclusionsDGT is an effective therapeutic agent, which facilitates the apoptosis and inhibits the proliferation, invasion, migration, and tumorigenicity of RCC cells in a YAP-dependent manner.
