1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Purpose: Tripartite motif containing 55 (TRIM55) is a member of the TRIM family and functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase. It acts as a cancer promoter or suppressor in the malignant processes of multiple cancers. However, its proliferative function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been poorly studied, and its underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the role of TRIM55 in HCC and its mechanism of promoting HCC proliferation. Materials and Methods: Protein expression levels of TRIM55 were measured in paired HCC and normal tissue samples using immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. The correlation between TRIM55 and clinical features was evaluated by statistical analysis. At the same time, overexpression and knockdown experiments, cycloheximide (CHX) interference experiments, ubiquitination, co-immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence staining experiments, as well as animal experiments were used to evaluate the potential mechanism that TRIM55 promotes proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma in vitro and in vivo. Results: TRIM55 expression in HCC specimens was higher compared with the corresponding non-tumor tissues. The overall survival and disease-free survival time of patients with high TRIM55 expression were shorter than those with low expression of TRIM55. Functionally, TRIM55 promoted the proliferation of HCC cells and accelerated the growth of HCC xenografts. Mechanistically, TRIM55 interacted with thyroid receptor interacting protein 6 (TRIP6) and regulate its stability by influencing the ubiquitination process, thereby affecting the Wnt signaling pathway. Conclusion: Our results indicate that TRIM55 promotes HCC proliferation by activating Wnt signaling pathways by stabilizing TRIP6. Therefore, targeting TRIM55 may be an effective therapeutic strategy to inhibit HCC growth.
