MiR-146b-5p/SEMA3G regulates epithelial-mesenchymal transition in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

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
objectiveThe primary purpose was to unveil how the miR-146b-5p/SEMA3G axis works in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
methodsccRCC dataset was acquired from TCGA database, and target miRNA to be studied was further analyzed using survival analysis. We performed miRNA target gene prediction through the database, and those predicted miRNAs were intersected with differential mRNAs. After calculating the correlation between miRNAs and mRNAs, we completed the GSEA pathway enrichment analysis on mRNAs. MiRNA and mRNA expression was examined by qRT-PCR. Western blot was introduced to detect SEMA3G, MMP2, MMP9 expression, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) marker proteins, and Notch/TGF-β signaling pathway-related proteins. Targeted relationship between miRNA and mRNA was validated using a dual-luciferase test. Transwell assay was employed to assess cell migration and invasion. Wound healing assay was adopted for evaluation of migration ability. The effect of different treatments on cell morphology was observed by a microscope.
resultsIn ccRCC cells, miR-146b-5p was remarkably overexpressed, yet SEMA3G was markedly less expressed. MiR-146b-5p was capable of stimulating ccRCC cell invasion, migration and EMT, and promoting the transformation of ccRCC cell morphology to mesenchymal state. SEMA3G was targeted and inhibited via miR-146b-5p. MiR-146b-5p facilitated ccRCC cell migration, invasion, morphology transforming to mesenchymal state and EMT process by targeting SEMA3G and regulating Notch and TGF-β signaling pathways.
conclusionMiR-146b-5p regulated Notch and TGF-β signaling pathway by suppressing SEMA3G expression, thus promoting the growth of ccRCC cells, which provides a possible target for ccRCC therapy and prognosis prediction.
