UBE2T regulates epithelial-mesenchymal transition through the PI3K-AKT pathway and plays a carcinogenic role in ovarian cancer.
Article in Journal of ovarian research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundUbiquitin-binding enzyme E2T (UBE2T), a member of the E2 family of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, is associated with tumorigenesis of varioustumours; however, its role and mechanism in ovarian cancer remain unclear.
resultsOur study revealed that UBE2T is highly expressed in ovarian cancer; this high expression was closely related to poor prognosis. Immunohistochemistry was used to validate the high expression of UBE2T in ovarian cancer. This is the first study to demonstrate that UBE2T expression is higher in ovarian cancer with BRCA mutation. Moreover, we demonstrated that UBE2T gene silencing significantly inhibited ovarian cancer cell proliferation and invasion. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of ovarian cancer cells and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K-AKT) pathway were significantly inhibited. Adding the mechanistic target of rapamycin activator MHY1485 activated the PI3K-AKT pathway and significantly restored the proliferative and invasive ability of ovarian cancer cells. Furthermore, a tumorigenesis experiment in nude mice revealed that tumour growth on mice body surface and tumour tissue EMT were significantly inhibited after UBE2T gene silencing.
conclusionsThis study demonstrated that UBE2T regulates EMT via the PI3K-AKT pathway and plays a carcinogenic role in ovarian cancer. Moreover, UBE2T may interact with BRCA to affect ovarian cancer occurrence and development. Hence, UBE2T may be a valuable novel biomarker for the early diagnosis and prognosis and treatment of ovarian cancer. Further, UBE2T inhibition may be effective for treating ovarian cancer.
