LDH-A Inhibitor as a Remedy to Potentiate the Anticancer Effect of Docetaxel in Prostate Cancer.
Article in Journal of Cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Increased LDH-A activity promotes tumor growth, migration, invasion, and metastasis. This study aimed to investigate the effects of the combination of LDH-A inhibitor and Docetaxel on apoptosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in the murine prostate cancer (PCa) model. The prostate cancer murine model was developed subcutaneously in 50 male B57CL/6 mice using the Tramp-C2 prostate cancer cell line. From the tumor tissue samples, apoptosis analysis was performed using TUNEL staining, and EMT was investigated using western blot and qPCR. Hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE) and Periodic acid-Schiff staining were used to histopathologically examine liver and kidney tissues. Lactate levels revealed that the Warburg effect was reversed with the LDH-A inhibitor. Both serum and tumor tissue apoptosis increased, and tumor sizes reduced in PCa+LDH-A inhibitor + Docetaxel treatment groups (p<0.05). The combination of LDH-A inhibitor and Docetaxel inhibited EMT mechanism by causing a decrease in Snail, Slug, Twist, and HIF-1α expressions as well as a decrease in N-cadherin and an increase in E-cadherin levels. Reprogramming glucose metabolism with an LDH-A inhibitor can increase the effectiveness of Docetaxel on apoptosis and metastasis mechanisms in PCa.
