PTEN-Long inhibits the biological behaviors of glioma cells.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesPTEN-Long is a translational variant of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN). This study aimed to assess the effect of PTEN-Long on the biological characteristics of glioma cells and related mechanisms.
methodsA vector stably expressing PTEN-Long was established and transfected into cells, serving as the overexpression group, while a set of empty vectors served as the negative control group. Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western blot were used to detect the expression of PTEN-Long and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, Protein kinase B, andnuclear factor-κB (PI3K-AKT-NF-κB). Cell proliferation was assessed with the Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK8) assay, migration through the scratch test, and invasion by the transwell chamber assay. Cell cycle analysis was performed using flow cytometry. The volume and weight of subcutaneous tumors in nude mice were also evaluated.
resultsPTEN-Long expression led to downregulation of p-Akt, NF-κB p65, p-NF-κB p65, and Bcl-xl, and up-regulation of IκBα. In addition, it inhibited glioma cell proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 phase, and reduced cell migration and invasion. Moreover, PTEN-Long inhibited the growth of subcutaneous glioma in nude mice.
conclusionsPTEN-Long inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasion and induces apoptosis in glioma cells by inhibiting PI3K-AKT-NF-κb signaling, implying that PTEN-Long may be a new target for glioma treatment.
