1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a kind of breast cancer with a high metastasis rate and poor prognosis. As a transmembrane glycoprotein, tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2 (TROP2) plays a certain role in the cancers. This study aimed to explore the potential mechanism of TROP2 affecting cisplatin (CDDP) resistance in TNBC from endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS). MDA-MB-231 and CDDP-resistant cell lines MDA-MB-231/CDDP were used in this study, and the expression of TROP2 was detected by western blotting. After transfecting with the interference sequence of siRNA targeting TROP2, cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected by the cell counting kit-8, colony formation, and flow cytometry, and the expression of ERS-marker proteins was detected by western blotting. Furthermore, the effects of ERS in TROP2 on drug resistance of TNBC cells were explored by using ERS inhibitor 4-phenylbutyric acid (4-PBA). Results found that TROP2 expression in MDA-MB-231/CDDP was significantly upregulated compared with MDA-MB-231. The expression of TROP2 in MDA-MB-231/CDDP was significantly decreased after transfection with siRNA-TROP2, and the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-231/CDDP cells was significantly decreased after further induction with CDDP. TROP2 significantly affected TNBC cell cloning, apoptosis, and the expression of ERS-related marker proteins, while 4-PBA reversed the promoting effects of siRNA-TROP2 on apoptosis and ERS, as well as the inhibitory effects on cell proliferation, suggesting that TROP2 affected the resistance of TNBC cells to CDDP through ERS. In conclusion, TROP2 inhibited apoptosis of TNBC cells, improved the cell cloning ability, and regulated the sensitivity of TNBC cells to CDDP through ERS.
