Polysaccharide extracted from the Sargassum fusiforme induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of B16F10 melanoma cells through the PI3K/AKT pathway.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundSARGASSUM FUSIFORME: (S. fusiforme) is a brown alga that has been utilized as a medicine for a long time. Polysaccharides extracted from S. fusiforme demonstrate antitumor activities.
methodsThe impact of S. fusiforme polysaccharides (SFPS 191,212) on the proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle kinetics of B16F10 murine melanoma cells were thoroughly investigated in this work. The anticancer activities of the SFPS 191,212 compounds were assayed in the B16F10 cells at both transcriptional and translational levels.
resultsThe compound exhibited concentration-dependent effects. Moreover, SPFS 191,212 increased the numbers of apoptotic cells and arrested the cell cycle in the S phase of the quantitative real-time PCR. From western blotting, it was verified that the SFPS 191,212 treatment improved the expression of Bax, Caspase-9, and Caspase-3 genes and proteins, while it reduced phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase and Bcl-2 genes and proteins, suggesting the involvement of mitochondria.
conclusionOverall, SFPS 191,212 can be further explored as a potential functional food or adjuvant agent for the prevention or treatment of melanoma.
