High-throughput sequencing reveals Jatrorrhizine inhibits colorectal cancer growth by ferroptosis-related genes.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundColorectal cancer is a malignant tumor that poses a serious threat to human health. The main objective of this study is to investigate the mechanism by which Jatrorrhizine (JAT), a root extract from Stephania Epigaea Lo, exerts its anticancer effects in colorectal cancer.
methodsWe initially assessed the inhibitory properties of JAT on SW480 cells using MTT and cell scratch assays. Flow cytometry was employed to detect cell apoptosis. Differentially expressed genes were identified through high-throughput sequencing, and they were subjected to functional enrichment and signaling pathway analysis and PPI network construction. RT-qPCR was used to evaluate gene expression and identify critical differentially expressed genes. Finally, the function and role of differentially expressed genes produced by JAT-treated SW480 cells in colorectal cancer will be further analyzed using the TCGA database.
resultsOur study demonstrated that JAT exhibits inhibitory effects on SW480 cells at concentrations of 12.5µM, 25µM, 50µM, and 75µM without inducing cell apoptosis. Through high-throughput sequencing, we identified 244 differentially expressed genes. KEGG and GO analysis of high-throughput sequencing results showed that differentially expressed genes were significantly enriched in MAPK, Wnt, and P53 signaling pathways. Notably, JAT significantly altered the expression of genes associated with ferroptosis. Subsequent RT-qPCR showed that the expression of ferroptosis genes SLC2A3 and ASNS was significantly lower in JAT-treated SW480 cells than in the control group. Analysis by TCGA data also showed that ferroptosis genes SLC2A3 and ASNS were significantly highly expressed in COAD. The prognosis of SLC2A3 was significantly worse in COAD compared to the normal group. SLC2A3 may be a core target of JAT for the treatment of COAD.
conclusionsJAT can inhibit COAD growth by ferroptosis-related genes. And it is a potential natural substance for the treatment of COAD.
