Anti-Müllerian hormone type II receptor protein expression in non-small cell lung cancer and the effect of AMH/AMHR2 signaling on cancer cell proliferation.
Article in Thoracic cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundNon-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide despite advances in cancer therapeutics. In several gynecological cancers, anti-Müllerian hormone receptor type 2 (AMHR2) mediates AMH-induced growth inhibition and is expressed at high levels. Furthermore, 5%-8% of NSCLCs exhibit high AMHR2 expression, suggesting that AMH may inhibit the progression of some lung cancers. However, the clinical relevance of AMHR2 expression and its role in lung cancer is not fully clarified.
methodsImmunostaining was performed on 79 surgical specimens of NSCLC. The Cancer Genome Atlas RNA-seq data for lung adenocarcinoma were analyzed, and gene ontology and gene set enrichment analyses were performed. In cellular experiments, AMHR2-overexpressing NSCLC cell lines were established, and the role of the AMH-AMHR2 pathway in cell proliferation with recombinant human AMH protein treatment was examined.
resultsA total of 13 cases (16.5%) were positive for immunostaining in lung adenocarcinoma tissues; no positive signals were detected in lung squamous carcinoma tissues. Gene expression variation analysis using The Cancer Genome Atlas data showed that the expression of genes related to the cell cycle was downregulated in the AMHR2-high group. Cellular experiments showed that activation of the AMH-AMHR2 pathway suppressed cell proliferation.
conclusionIn lung adenocarcinoma tissues with high expression of AMHR2, activation of the AMH-AMHR2 pathway may suppress cell proliferation.
