Anticancer potential of grifolin in lung cancer treatment through PI3K/AKT pathway inhibition.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: Grifolin is a natural secondary metabolite isolated from edible fruiting bodies of the mushroom Methods: We determined the proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of lung cancer cells using 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, Ethynyl deoxyuridine, colony formation, wound scratch, transwell, flow cytometry, and xenograft mouse assays. Molecular docking evaluated the binding relation between grifolin and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha (PIK3CA). The levels of PIK3CA, AKT, and p-AKT were measured by western blot. Results: Grifolin (10, 20, or 40 μM) inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of lung cancer cells, and induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Grifolin also decreased CDK4, CDK6, and CyclinD1 expression and significantly decreased PIK3CA and p-AKT expression in lung cancer cells. These anticancer effects were abolished by 740Y-P. Conclusions: Grifolin regulates the PI3K/AKT pathway, thus inhibiting lung cancer progression.
