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

backroundRPL15 has been found to participate in human tumorigenesis. However, its function and regulatory mechanism in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development are still unclear. Current study investigated the effects of RPL15 in HCC.

methodsThe expression of RPL15 in clinical tissues and cell lines of HCC was detected by RT-qPCR, Western blotting, and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Colony formation, CCK-8, flow cytometry, Wound healing and Transwell invasion assays, were used to detect the carcinoma progression of HCC cells with RPL15 overexpression or knockdown in vitro. A xenograft model was constructed to assess the effect of RPL15 knockdown on HCC cells in vivo. The expression of CDK2 and Cyclin E1 related to cell cycles, Bax and Bcl-2 related to cell apoptosis, E-cadherin, N-cadherin and Vimentin related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), p53 and p21 related to p53 signaling pathway, were detected by Western blotting. The connection between p53, MDM2 and RPL5/11 affected by RPL15 was analyzed using immunoprecipitation and Cycloheximide (CHX) chase assay.

resultsElevated RPL15 was identified in HCC tissues, which was not only a prediction for the poor prognosis of HCC patients, but also associated with the malignant progression of HCC. RPL15 silencing arrested HCC cell cycle, suppressed HCC cell colony formation, proliferation, invasion, and migration, and induce cell apoptosis. On the contrary, RPL15 upregulation exerted opposite effects. Results also indicated that HCC cell invasion and migration were associated with EMT, and that the RPs-MDM2-p53 pathway was implicated in RPL15-mediated oncogenic transformation. In addition, RPL15 knockdown significantly suppressed HCC xenografts growth.

conclusionsRPL15 played crucial roles in HCC progression and metastasis, serving as a promising candidate for targeted therapies.
