Integrative Methylome and Transcriptome Characterization Identifies SERINC2 as a Tumor-Driven Gene for Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Most papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs) can be diagnosed preoperatively by routine evaluation, such as thyroid ultrasonography and fine-needle aspiration biopsy. Nevertheless, understanding how to differentiate indolent thyroid tumors from aggressive thyroid cancers remains a challenge, which may cause overtreatment. This study aimed to identify papillary thyroid cancer-specific indicators with whole-genome DNA methylation and gene expression profiles utilizing Infinium Methylation EPIC BeadChip (850k) and RNA arrays. In this paper, we report SERINC2 as a potential tumor-driven indicator in PTC. The up-regulated expression levels of SERINC2 were verified in PTC cell lines via qPCR. Then, cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8), wound healing, and flow cytometric assays were performed to confirm the influence of SERINC2 on proliferation and apoptosis in PTC cell lines after intervention or overexpression. Moreover, the investigation of data from the Cancer Dependency Map (DepMap) provided a potential pathway targeted by SERINC2. The activation of the tryptophan metabolic pathway may reduce the dependency of SERINC2 in thyroid cancers. In conclusion, our results demonstrate the whole-genome DNA methylation and gene expression profiles of papillary thyroid carcinoma, identify SERINC2 as a potential tumor-driven biomarker, and preliminarily verify its function in PTC.
