Cytoplasmic Beta and Gamma Actin Isoforms Reorganization and Regulation in Tumor Cells in Culture and Tissue.
Review in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
The cytoplasmic actin isoforms (β- and γ-actins) contribute greatly to cellular processes such as cel-cell and cell-matrix interactions, as well as cell polarization, motility and division. Distinct isoforms modulations are linked to serious pathologies, so investigations of underlying mechanisms would be of major relevance not only for fundamental research but also for clinical applications. Therefore, the study of the relevant mechanisms of change in the isoform's balance is important for basic research and for clinical studies. The disruption of actin cytoskeleton and intercellular adhesions contribute to the neoplastic transformation, as it is important for the tumor growth, invasiveness and metastasis. Cytoplasmic actins display the functional diversity: β-actin is responsible for contractility, whereas γ-actin participates in the submembrane flexible cortex organization and direction cell motility. The involvement of β- and γ-actin in cell architecture, motility, division, and adhesion junctions in normal cells is not equivalent, and the major question was following: whether isoform ratio and the distribution in the cell corresponds to pathological function. Significant data were obtained in the study of tumor and normal cells in culture, as well as on clinical material of human tissues, and via selective regulation of β- and γ-actin's expression. Investigation of the actins' diversity and function in cancers may help to choose the benefit treatment strategies, and to design new therapies.
