GPR56 facilitates hepatocellular carcinoma metastasis by promoting the TGF-β signaling pathway.
Article in Cell death & disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) poses a significant threat to the survival of patients. G protein-coupled receptor 56 (GPR56) has garnered extensive attention within malignant tumor research and plays a crucial role in cellular surface signal transmission. Nonetheless, its precise function in HCC remains ambiguous. Our investigation reveals a notable rise in GPR56 expression levels in human HCC cases, with heightened GPR56 levels correlating with unfavorable prognoses. GPR56 regulates TGF-β pathway by interacting with TGFBR1, thereby promoting HCC metastasis. At the same time, GPR56 is subject to regulation by the canonical cascade of TGF-β signaling, thereby establishing a positive feedback loop. Furthermore, the combination application of TGFBR1 inhibitor galunisertib (GAL) and GPR56 inhibitor Dihydromunduletone (DHM), significantly inhibits HCC metastasis. Interventions towards this signaling pathway could offer a promising therapeutic approach to effectively impede the metastasis of GPR56-mediated HCC.
