UBE2C serves as a prognosis biomarker of uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma via promoting tumor migration and invasion.

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
The biological functions of ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes E2 (UBE2) family members in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) remains unclear. Our study aimed to systematically analyze the expression patterns, prognostic value, biological functions and molecular regulatory mechanisms of UBE2 family in UCEC. Among nine screened UBE2 family members associated with UCEC, UBE2C was the most significantly overexpressed gene with poor prognosis. High expression levels of UBE2C in UCEC was correlated with stages, histological subtypes, patient's menopause status and TP53 mutation. Three molecules (CDC20, PTTG1 and AURKA), were identified as the key co-expression proteins of UBE2C. The generic alterations (mutation, amplification) and DNA hypomethylation might contribute to UBE2C's high expression in UCEC. Furthermore, in vitro experiments showed that the interference of UBE2C inhibited the migration and invasion of endometrial cancer cells, while partially impact cell proliferation and didn't impact the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers. Using comprehensive bioinformatics analysis and in vitro experiments, our study provided a novel insight into the oncogenic role of UBE2 family, specifically UBE2C in UCEC. UBE2C might serve as an effective biomarker to predict poor prognosis and a potential therapeutic target in clinical practice.
