Multi-omics sequencing revealed endostar combined with cisplatin treated non small cell lung cancer via anti-angiogenesis.
Article in BMC cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundEndostar, an anti-angiogenic drug, has been approved for treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). At present, endostar combined with radiotherapy or chemotherapy has achieved ideal results in the treatment of some tumors, but there is a lack of application and study in NSCLC. This study investigated the therapeutic effect and potential mechanism of endostar combined with cisplatin (EC) in NSCLC.
methodsHE staining, TUNEL staining, immunofluorescence, colony formation ability, and cell migration ability were used to evaluate the anti-tumor activity of EC. The expressions of FMOD, VEGF, FGF-2, and PDGF-B were detected by western blotting and qPCR. The target of combination therapy was analyzed by m6A sequencing and RNA sequencing. METTL3 knockdown and overexpressed A549 cells were constructed and co-cultured with HUVECs to further evaluate the effect of METLL3 on combination therapy.
resultsCombination therapy significantly reduced the colony formation and migration ability of NSCLC cells, induced cell apoptosis, and inhibited the tube formation ability of HUVECs. The results of m6A sequencing and RNA sequencing showed that the EC could down-regulate the expression level of FMOD in tumor tissues, which might be related to the reduction of its m6A methylation modification regulatory enzyme METTL3. Restricting FMOD expression could reduce the expression of FGF2, TGF-β1, VEGF and PDGF-B. Moreover, overexpression of METTLE almost abolished the anti-tumor effect of EC and promoted angiogenesis.
conclusionsEndostar combined with cisplatin might exert anti-tumor effects by down-regulating the expression of METTL3 and FMOD.
