The hsa_circ_0039857/miR-338-3p/RAB32 axis promotes the malignant progression of colorectal cancer.
Article in BMC gastroenterology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent malignancy of the gastrointestinal. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) act as important roles in CRC malignant progression. However, the role of circ_0039857 in CRC is still unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the function and mechanism of hsa_circ_0039857 in the CRC.
methodsThe mRNA and protein expression were measured via RT-qPCR. RNase R assay and Actinomycin D were employed to evaluate the stability of circ_0039857. Functional experiments, such as proliferation and apoptosis, were applied to study the function of circ_0039857 in CRC cells. The underlying mechanisms of circ_0039857 were then analyzed by bioinformatics, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay, RNA pull-down and rescue experiments.
resultsWe revealed that circ_0039857 was significantly enhanced in CRC. Circ_0039857 was stabler than linear RNA in cells and valuable for the disease diagnosis. In addition, circ_0039857 knockdown inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis. Mechanistically, circ_0039857 positively regulated the expression of RAB32 via sponging miR-338-3p.
conclusionThis study demonstrated that circ_0039857 knockdown suppressed CRC malignant progression through miR-338-3p/RAB32 axis. Most importantly, this will help us to better understand the circRNA network in CRC, and may find potential biomarkers and targets for CRC clinical treatment.
