Unveiling the oncogenic role of LZTS1 in colorectal cancer.
Article in Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 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
Although leucine zipper tumour suppressor 1 (LZTS1) has been considered a potential tumour suppressor, accumulating evidence suggests that LZTS1 is highly expressed in many cancer types. To unravel the exact role of LZTS1 in colorectal carcinogenesis, we performed the bioinformatic analysis of LZTS1, including expression differences, correlations between expression levels and survival, methylation status of LZTS1 promoter and related cellular pathways based on TCGA dataset, GEO databases and our own CRC patient cohort. Furthermore, we confirmed the oncogenic function of LZTS1 in human mammalian cells by employing a series of assays including tissue microarray, immunoblotting, cell proliferation and migration assay. We found that the expression of LZTS1 is higher in tumour samples compared to paired normal tissue in CRC cancer and its different clinical subtypes, which is, at least in part, due to the low methylation status of LZTS1 promoter in CRC tumour samples. Functional analysis identified the close relationship between high expression of LZTS1 and PI3K-AKT pathway and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. Consistently, we found that the expression of LZTS1 positively correlated with the expression PIK3CD, N-cadherin in CRC tumour samples, while the expression of LZTS1 negatively correlated with the expression of E-cadherin and PTEN in CRC tumour samples. Experimental data further confirmed that overexpression of LZTS1 upregulated activity of AKT and promoted EMT process. Furthermore, depletion of LZTS1 repressed the proliferation and migration rate of CRC cells. Thus, this study indicates that LZTS1 plays an oncogenic role in colorectal carcinogenesis.
