PFKP confers chemoresistance by upregulating ABCC2 transporter in non-small cell lung cancer.

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
Background: Chemoresistance is a significant factor contributing to tumor recurrence and treatment failure in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The phosphofructokinase, platelet (PFKP) is highly expressed in NSCLC and is associated with a poor prognosis. Exploring the molecular mechanism and identifying effective strategies to overcome chemoresistance will have important clinical significance in improving the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC. Methods: The correlation between PFKP and cisplatin resistance in NSCLC patients was assessed by organoids and immunohistochemistry. The impact of PFKP on the prognosis of NSCLC patients was analyzed using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. In NSCLC cell lines, the expression of PFKP was modulated using lentivirus, and cisplatin sensitivity was assessed by flow cytometry. Subsequently, the therapeutic effect of cisplatin was tested in BALB/c nude mice implanted subcutaneously with tumor cells. We performed luciferase assay and immunohistochemistry (IHC) to investigate the correlation between PFKP and ABCC2 (ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 2). Results: Overexpression of PFKP was correlated with poorer survival rates in NSCLC patients who received platinum-based chemotherapy. Using NSCLC organoid, we found that the expression of PFKP was elevated in cisplatin (CDDP)-resistant patients with NSCLC. Overexpression of PFKP decreased the sensitivity of NSCLC cells to CDDP, while genetic inhibition of PFKP enhanced CDDP sensitivity both Conclusions: PFKP can regulate the expression of ABCC2 through the activation of NF-κB, which in turn promotes chemoresistance in NSCLC. PFKP has the potential to be a personalized therapeutic target for NSCLC patients with chemoresistance.
