COPS3 Promotes Proliferation, Invasion, and EMT of Colorectal Cancer Cells by MEK/ERK Pathway.
Article in Disease markers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most aggressive cancers with poor prognosis and high mortality. The study of the pathogenesis of CRC is a top priority in providing effective diagnostic and prognostic strategies for CRC. COPS3 protein is a subunit of the COP9 signaling body (CSN), which is closely associated with the development of multiple types of tumors. However, there are few studies on the role of COPS3 in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD). This study investigated the effects of COPS3 on proliferation, motility, and EMT of colorectal cancer cells and related mechanisms. COPS3 was highly expressed in COAD. The depletion of COPS3 suppressed the viability and stimulated the apoptosis of COAD cells. Depletion of COPS3 suppressed the motility and EMT process of COAD cells. Mechanically, we found that COPS3 could mediate MEK/ERK pathway and therefore affected the process of COAD cells. We thought that COPS3 could serve as a promising COAD target.
