ASAH1 facilitates TNBC by DUSP5 suppression-driven activation of MAP kinase pathway and represents a therapeutic vulnerability.

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
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer that is prone to metastasis and therapy resistance. Owing to its aggressive nature and limited availability of targeted therapies, TNBC is associated with higher mortality as compared to other forms of breast cancer. In order to develop new therapeutic options for TNBC, we characterized the factors involved in TNBC growth and progression. Here, we demonstrate that N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase 1 (ASAH1) is overexpressed in TNBC cells and is regulated via p53 and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways. Genetic knockdown or pharmacological inhibition of ASAH1 suppresses TNBC growth and progression. Mechanistically, ASAH1 inhibition stimulates dual-specificity phosphatase 5 (DUSP5) expression, suppressing the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Furthermore, pharmacological cotargeting of the ASAH1 and MAPK pathways inhibits TNBC growth. Collectively, we unmasked a novel role of ASAH1 in driving TNBC and identified dual targeting of the ASAH1 and MAPK pathways as a potential new therapeutic approach for TNBC treatment.
