1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

As a representative item of chemical carcinogen, MNNG is closely associated with the onset of gastric cancer (GC), where N6-methyladonosine (m6A) RNA methylation is recognized as a critical epigenetic event. In our previous study, we found that the m6A modification by methyltransferase METTL3 was up-regulated in MNNG-exposed malignant GES-1 cells (MC cells) compared to control cells in vitro, and long non-coding RNA SNHG7 as a downstream target of the METTL3. However, the functional role of METTL3 in mediating the SNHG7 axis in MNNG-induced GC remains unclear. In the present study, we continuously investigate the functional role of METTL3 in mediating the SNHG7 axis in MNNG-induced GC. RIP-PCR and m6A-IP-qPCR were used to examine the molecular mechanism underlying the METTL3/m6A/SNHG7 axis in MNNG-induced GC. A METTL3 knockout mice model was constructed and exposed by MNNG. Western blot analysis, IHC analysis, and RT-qPCR were used to measure the expression of METTL3, SNHG7, and EMT markers. In this study, we demonstrated that in MNNG-induced GC tumorigenesis, the m6A modification regulator METTL3 facilitates cellular EMT and biological functions through the m6A/SNHG7 axis using in vitro and in vivo models. In conclusion, our study provides novel insights into critical epigenetic molecular events vital to MNNG-induced gastric carcinogenesis. These findings suggest the potential therapeutic targets of METTL3 for GC treatment.
