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

backgroundRab-interacting lysosomal protein (RILP) contains an alpha-helical coil with an unexplored biological function in osteosarcoma. This study investigated the expression of RILP in osteosarcoma cells and tissues to determine the effect of RILP on the biological behaviors of osteosarcoma cells and the underlying mechanism.

methodsTumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) database, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were used for bioinformatic analysis. Co-immunoprecipitation experiment was used to determine whether the two proteins were interacting. In functional tests, cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, colony formation assay, wound healing assay, transwell invasion assay, Immunofluorescence (IF) assay and immunohistochemical (IHC) assay were performed.

resultsOverexpression of RILP significantly inhibited proliferation and impaired metastasis ability of osteosarcoma cells, while silencing of RILP showed the opposite trend. RNA-seq data analysis was applied in 143B cells and pathway enrichment analysis revealed that differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in the PI3K/AKT pathway. We further verified that overexpression of RILP restrained the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and induced autophagy in osteosarcoma cells, while the opposite trend was observed when PI3K pathway activator 740Y-P was used. 3-Methyladenine (3-MA), a selective autophagy inhibitor, partially attenuated the inhibitory effect of RILP on the migration and invasion ability of osteosarcoma cells, suggesting the involvement of autophagy in epithelial-mesenchymal transition regulation in osteosarcoma cells. Growth factor receptor binding protein-10 (Grb10), an adaptor protein, was confirmed as a potential target of RILP to restrain the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. We subcutaneously injected stably overexpressing 143B osteosarcoma cells into nude mice and observed that overexpression of RILP inhibited tumor growth by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

conclusionOur study revealed that the expression of RILP was associated with favorable prognosis of osteosarcoma and RILP inhibits proliferation, migration, and invasion and promotes autophagy in osteosarcoma cells via Grb10-mediated inhibition of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. In the future, targeting RILP may be a potential strategy for osteosarcoma treatment.
