Gastric cancer cell-derived exosomal miR-541-5p induces M2 macrophage polarization through DUSP3/JAK2/STAT3 pathway.
Article in BMC cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
purposeExosomal microRNAs have been identified as important mediators of communication between tumor cells and macrophages in the microenvironment. miR-541-5p was reported to be involved in hepatocellular carcinoma progression, but its role in gastric cancer (GC) and in GC cell-macrophage crosstalk is unknown.
methodsCell proliferation, migration and invasion were respectively assessed by CCK-8 assay, scratch and Transwell assays. RT-qPCR was used to detect the level of miR-541-5p, macrophage markers and DUSP3. The percentage of CD11b
resultsThe results showed that miR-541-5p was upregulated in GC tissues and cells, and stimulated GC cell growth, migration and invasion in vitro. GC cells induce M2 macrophage polarization by secreting the exosomal miR-541-5p. Exosomal miR-541-5p maintained JAK2/STAT3 pathway activation in macrophages by targeting negative regulation of DUSP3. Inhibiting miR-541-5p significantly limited tumor growth in vivo.
conclusionIn conclusion, miR-541-5p promotes GC cell progression. GC cells may induce macrophage M2 polarization through the exosomal miR-541-5p-mediated DUSP3/JAK2/STAT3 pathway. miR-541-5p may be a potential therapeutic target for GC.
