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

backgroundSec23 homolog A (SEC23A), a core component of coat protein complex II (COPII), has been reported to be involved in several cancers. However, the role of SEC23A in gastric cancer remains unclear.

methodsThe expression of SEC23A in gastric cancer was analyzed by using qRT-PCR, western blotting and IHC staining. The role of SEC23A in ER stress resistance was explored by functional experiments in vitro and vivo. The occupation of STAT3 on the SEC23A promoter region was verified by luciferase reporter plasmids and CHIP assay. The interaction between SEC23A and ANXA2 was identified by Co-IP and mass spectrometry analysis.

resultsWe demonstrated that SEC23A was upregulated in gastric cancer and predicted poor prognosis in patients with gastric cancer. Mechanistically, SEC23A was transcriptional upregulated by ER stress-induced pY705-STAT3. Highly expressed SEC23A promoted autophagy by regulating the cellular localization of ANXA2. The SEC23A-ANXA2-autophay axis, in turn, protected gastric cancer cells from ER stress-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, we identified SEC23A attenuated 5-FU therapeutic effectiveness in gastric cancer cells through autophagy-mediated ER stress relief.

conclusionWe reveal an ER stress-SEC23A-autophagy negative feedback loop that enhances the ability of gastric cancer cells to resist the adverse survival environments. These results identify SEC23A as a promising molecular target for potential therapeutic intervention and prognostic prediction in patients with gastric cancer.
