Circ_BBS9 as an early diagnostic biomarker for lung adenocarcinoma: direct interaction with IFIT3 in the modulation of tumor immune microenvironment.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Background: Introduction: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been identified as significant contributors to the development and advancement of cancer. The objective of this study was to examine the expression and clinical implications of circRNA circ_BBS9 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), as well as its potential modes of action. Methods: The expression of Circ_BBS9 was examined in tissues and cell lines of LUAD through the utilization of microarray profiling, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and western blot analysis. In this study, we assessed the impact of circ_BBS9 on the proliferation of LUAD cells, as well as its influence on ferroptosis and tumor formation. To analyze these effects, we employed CCK-8 assays and ferroptosis assays. The identification of proteins that interact with Circ_BBS9 was achieved through the utilization of RNA pull-down and mass spectrometry techniques. A putative regulatory network comprising circ_BBS9, miR-7150, and IFIT3 was established using bioinformatics study. The investigation also encompassed the examination of the correlation between the expression of IFIT3 and the invasion of immune cells. Results: Circ_BBS9 was significantly downregulated in LUAD tissues and cell lines. Low circ_BBS9 expression correlated with poor prognosis. Functional experiments showed that circ_BBS9 overexpression inhibited LUAD cell proliferation and promoted ferroptosis Conclusion: Circ_BBS9 has been identified as a tumor suppressor in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and holds promise as a diagnostic biomarker. The potential mechanism of action involves the modulation of ferroptosis and the immunological microenvironment through direct interaction with IFIT3 and competitive binding to miR-7150. The aforementioned findings offer new perspectives on the pathophysiology of LUAD and highlight circ_BBS9 as a potentially valuable target for therapeutic interventions.
