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

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women, and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a specific subtype of breast cancer characterized by high invasiveness, high metastatic potential, ease of recurrence, and poor prognosis. Src-like adaptor protein 2 (SLAP2), which can be involved in the regulation of multiple signaling pathways, may be a key target for TNBC. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of overexpression of SLAP2 on TNBC and to explore the underlying mechanisms. First, we constructed and transfected SLAP2 overexpressing lentivirus based on MDA-MB-231 human TNBC cell line, screened for differential downstream target genes in combination with mRNA high-throughput sequencing (RNA-Seq), and predicted their functions and enriched pathways in conjunction with bioinformatics analysis. The effects of SLAP2 overexpression on macrophage polarization, as well as on tumor proliferation and apoptosis, were assessed by tail vein injection of a stable transfection line of 4T1 cells transfected with SLAP2 overexpressing lentivirus. The effect of SLAP2 on macrophage polarization was assessed by inducing M1/M2 polarization and transfecting SLAP2 overexpressing lentivirus. Meanwhile, a transwell co-culture system was constructed between differently treated macrophages and 4T1 cells to assess the effect of SLAP2 overexpression on the malignant behavior of the cells via macrophage polarization. Overexpression of SLAP2 revealed 179 genes up-regulated and 74 genes down-regulated by mRNA high-throughput sequencing, and the enriched functions and pathways of differential genes were mainly related to immunity response. In vivo experiments revealed that overexpression of SLAP2 inhibited the growth of tumor in nude mice, decreased the expression of ki67 in tumor tissues, and increased the rate of apoptosis in tumor tissues. Meanwhile, we found that overexpression of SLAP2 promoted macrophage polarization toward M1 type and inhibited M2 type polarization in tumors. In vitro experiments further verified its effect on M1/M2 polarization by transfecting SLAP2 overexpressing lentivirus. By transwell co-culture system, we further demonstrated that overexpression of SLAP2 inhibits cell proliferation and invasion, promotes apoptosis, up-regulates the expression of Bax in cells, and down-regulates the expression of Bcl-2 in cells by promoting macrophage M1-type polarization. Overexpression of SLAP2 inhibits TNBC progression by promoting macrophage M1-type polarization.
