Differential enrichment of H3K9me3 in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundIntrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a malignant tumor, which poses a serious threat to human health. Histone 3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3) is a post-translational modification involved in regulating a broad range of biological processes and has been considered as potential therapeutic target in types of cancer. However, there is limited research on investigating profiles of histone modification H3K9me3 in ICC patients.
methodsIn this study, we applied the ChIP-seq technique to investigate the effect of H3K9me3 on ICC. Anti-H3K9me3 antibody was used for ChIP-seq in ICC (RBE cell lines) and HIBEpic (normal cell lines). MACS2 (peak-calling tools) was then used to identify the peaks recorded in RBE and HIBEpic cell lines. Gene expression, mutation and clinical data were downloaded from TCGA and cBioPortal databases.
resultsH3K9me3 exhibited abnormal methylation and influenced the process of abnormal gene expression in patients suffering from ICC. The Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway (also known as simply the WNT signaling pathway) was enriched in H3K9me3-regulated genes.
conclusionsWe are the first to report that H3K9me3 may play an important role in the progression of ICC. It promotes the understanding of epigenetic molecular mechanisms for ICC.
