RP11-40C6.2 Inactivates Hippo Signaling by Attenuating YAP1 Ubiquitylation in Hepatitis B Virus-associated Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Article in Journal of clinical and translational hepatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Background and Aims: Chronic hepatitis caused by hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We investigated the roles of oncogenic HBV infection-associated long noncoding RNAs in HCC. Methods: Bioinformatics analysis of data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) was performed to screen potential oncogenic HBV-related lncRNAs. Next, we assessed their expression in clinical samples and investigated their correlation with clinical characteristics. The detailed oncogenic effects were analyzed by performing Results: RP11-40C6.2, an HBV infection-related lncRNA, was identified by analysis of the TCGA-Liver Hepatocellular Carcinoma database. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes revealed a strong association of RP11-40C6.2 with the Hippo signaling pathway. RP11-40C6.2 was overexpressed in HCC patients with HBV infection compared to those without HBV infection. RP11-40C6.2 transcription showed a positive association with HBV-X protein (HBx), but not HBV core protein (HBc) expression, both of which are carcinogenic proteins. Luciferase gene reporter and ChIP assays revealed that YAP1/TAZ/TEADs complex enhanced RP11-40C6.2 transcription by binding to its promoter area. RP11-40C6.2 showed oncogenic characteristics in HCC cell lines and in animal models that were mediated via activation of YAP1. Conclusions: RP11-40C6.2 is an HBV infection-related lncRNA that exerts its oncogenic effects by targeting the Hippo signaling pathway.
