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

Centrosome amplification (CA) is a prominent feature of human cancers linked to tumorigenesis in vivo. Here, we report mechanistic contributions of CA induction alone to tumour architecture and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling. CA induction in non-tumorigenic breast cells MCF10A causes cell migration and invasion, with underlying disruption of epithelial cell-cell junction integrity and dysregulation of expression and subcellular localisation of cell junction proteins. CA also elevates expression of integrin β-3, its binding partner fibronectin-1 and matrix metalloproteinase enzymes, promoting cell-ECM attachment, ECM degradation, and a migratory and invasive cell phenotype. Using a chicken embryo xenograft model for in vivo validation, we show that CA-induced (+CA) MCF10A cells invade into the chick mesodermal layer, with inflammatory cell infiltration and marked focal reactions between chorioallantoic membrane and cell graft. We also demonstrate a key role of small GTPase Rap-1 signalling through inhibition using GGTI-298, which blocked various CA-induced effects. These insights reveal that in normal cells, CA induction alone (without additional oncogenic alterations) is sufficient to confer early pro-tumorigenic changes within days, acting through Rap-1-dependent signalling to alter cell-cell contacts and ECM disruption.
