Prognostic and Immunological Role of Cuproptosis-Related Gene MTF1 in Pan-Cancer.
Article in Journal of Cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Metal regulatory transcription factor 1 (MTF1) has been reported to induce the expression of metallothionein and other genes involved in metal homeostasis. However, the role of MTF1 in pan-cancer and tumor immunity remains unclear. In this study, we conducted a series of bioinformatics analyses to investigate the clinical significance and potential functions of MTF1 across various types of cancer. By employing bioinformatics algorithms and immunofluorescence assays, we analyzed the associations between MTF1 and immune infiltration in the tumor microenvironment as well as the expression levels of immune-related molecules. Our findings revealed dysregulation of MTF1 in pan-cancer along with its correlation with certain clinicopathological features, suggesting its diagnostic and prognostic value for multiple cancer types. Furthermore, our immune-associated analyses and assays demonstrated strong correlations between MTF1 expression and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC), central memory T cells (Tcm), as well as several immune biomarkers. Subsequent in vitro assays indicated that MTF1 reduced the sensitivity of cancer cells to cuproptosis. Overall, our study highlights that MTF1 may serve as a promising biomarker for prognosis assessment and a potential therapeutic target for more effective treatment strategies against various cancers.
