NXNL2 Promotes Colon Cancer Proliferation and Metastasis by Regulating AKT Pathway.

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
This study aimed to explore the role of nucleoredoxin-like 2 (NXNL2) in colon cancer (CC). The GEPIA and UALCAN databases were analyzed to explore genes involved in the prognosis of CC patients. DLD1 cells were treated with the DNA methylation inhibitor 5-azacitidine to validate the above findings. The methyltransferase DNMT (DNA methylation) was further knocked down by shRNA, then the expression of NXNL2 was assessed by qPCR. The role of NXNL2 on cell proliferation and metastasis was examined using corresponding assays. NXNL2 was found to exhibit the greatest impact on the prognosis of CC patients. High NXNL2 correlated with poor survival outcomes of CC. The expression of NXNL2 was regulated by DNA methylation. NXNL2 promoted CC cell proliferation and metastasis. Also, NXNL2 promoted the AKT pathway activity. In conclusion, NXNL2 could affect the cancer cell proliferation and metastasis, and has a poor survival prognosis in CC.
