A novel imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivative and its co-administration with curcumin exert anti-inflammatory effects by modulating the STAT3/NF-κB/iNOS/COX-2 signaling pathway in breast and ovarian cancer cell lines.

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
Introduction: Imidazo[1,2- Methods: We evaluated the interaction between imidazo[1,2- Results: Molecular docking studies showed that MIA docked into the NF-κB p50 subunit, and curcumin augmented its binding. The MTT assay results indicated that MIA and its combination with curcumin reduced cell viability. According to the results of the ELISA-based methods, MIA lowered the levels of inflammatory cytokines and suppressed NF-κB activity. In addition, real-time PCR and Griess test results showed that the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) genes, and nitrite production were reduced by MIA. Furthermore, the western blotting analysis demonstrated that MIA increased the expression of inhibitory κB (IκBα) and B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2)-associated X proteins (BAX), and suppressed the STAT3 phosphorylation, and Bcl-2 expression. Our findings revealed that curcumin had a potentiating role and enhanced all the anti-inflammatory effects of MIA. Conclusion: This study indicated that the anti-inflammatory activity of MIA is exerted by suppressing the NF-κB and STAT3 signaling pathways in MDA-MB-231 and SKOV3 cancer cell lines.
