Silencing of circCRIM1 Drives IGF2BP1-Mediated NSCLC Immune Evasion.
Article in Cells, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
objectivesCircular RNAs (circRNAs) have been found to have significant impacts on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression through various mechanisms. However, the mechanism of circRNAs modulating tumor immune evasion in NSCLC has yet to be well-revealed. MATERIALS AND
methodsThrough analyzing the expression profiles of circRNAs in NSCLC tissues, RNA FISH, pull-down assay, mass spectrometry analysis, and RIP, circCRIM1 was identified, and its interaction with IGF2BP1 was confirmed. The effects of circCRIM1 on modulating tumor immune evasion were explored via co-culture in vitro and in tumor xenograft models. Subsequently, we evaluated the regulatory effects of circCRIM1 on IGF2BP1 and screened its target genes through RNA sequencing. Finally, we explored the underlying molecular mechanisms that circCRIM1 could regulate the stability of target mRNA.
resultscircCRIM1 was downregulated in NSCLC, and its expression was positively correlated with favorable prognoses. Furthermore, circCRIM1 was more stable than its linear transcript and was mainly localized in the cytoplasm. Mechanistically, circCRIM1 destabilized HLA-F mRNA via competitive binding to IGF2BP1. Importantly, the overexpression of circCRIM1 suppressed the immune evasion of NSCLC and promoted the expressions of Granzyme B, IFN-γ, and TNF-α of CD8+ T and NK cell in vitro co-culture assays and tumor xenograft models.
conclusionsThis study identifies circCRIM1 as a new tumor suppressor that inhibits tumor immune evasion through a competitive combination with IGF2BP1 to destabilize HLA-F mRNA.
