SUMOylation-Driven mRNA Circularization Enhances Translation and Promotes Lymphatic Metastasis of Bladder Cancer.
Article in Cancer research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Aberrant gene expression is a prominent feature of metastatic cancer. Translational initiation is a vital step in fine-tuning gene expression. Thus, exploring translation initiation regulators may identify therapeutic targets for preventing and treating metastasis. Herein, we identified that DHCR24 was overexpressed in lymph node (LN) metastatic bladder cancer and correlated with poor prognosis of patients. DHCR24 promoted lymphangiogenesis and LN metastasis of bladder cancer in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, DHCR24 mediated and recognized the SUMO2 modification at lysine 108 of hnRNPA2B1 to foster TBK1 mRNA circularization and eIF4F initiation complex assembly by enhancing hnRNPA2B1-eIF4G1 interaction. Moreover, DHCR24 directly anchored to TBK1 mRNA 3'-untranslated region to increase its stability, thus forming a feed forward loop to elevate TBK1 expression. TBK1 activated PI3K/Akt signaling to promote VEGFC secretion, resulting in lymphangiogenesis and LN metastasis. DHCR24 silencing significantly impeded bladder cancer lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis in a patient-derived xenograft model. Collectively, these findings elucidate DHCR24-mediated translation machinery that promotes lymphatic metastasis of bladder cancer and supports the potential application of DHCR24-targeted therapy for LN-metastatic bladder cancer. SIGNIFICANCE: DHCR24 is a SUMOylation regulator that controls translation initiation complex assembly and orchestrates TBK1 mRNA circularization to activate Akt/VEGFC signaling, which stimulates lymphangiogenesis and promotes lymph node metastasis in bladder cancer.
