Lowering expression of Epsin-3 inhibits migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells by inhibiting the epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a genetic reprogramming that tumor cells utilize for metastasis. Epsin-3 (EPN3) is an endocytic adapter protein involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and had been previously linked to EMT in breast cancer and glioma metastasis. In this study, identified the role of epsin-3 in lung adenocarcinoma and metastasis and epsin-3 levels identified using an expression profile analysis of patient data indicated the protein was abnormally overexpressed in lung adenocarcinoma patients and this was directly linked to disease severity. Gene knockdowns of EPN3 in human adenocarcinoma cell line A549 and the non-small cell lung carcinoma cell line H1299 decreased the levels of mesenchymal markers, including vimentin (VIM), N-cadherin (NCAD) and embryonic transcription factors like zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1(ZEB1), snail, and the key molecules of Wnt pathway such as β-catenin and resulted in increased expression of the epithelial marker E-cadherin (ECAD). Our data links EPN3 to the EMT process in lung cancer and inhibition of its expression reduced the metastatic and invasive ability of lung adenocarcinoma cells by inhibiting the EMT process.
