PGV-1 Causes Disarrangement of Spindle Microtubule Organization Resulting in Aberrant Mitosis in HLF and HuH6 Cells Associated with Altered MYCN Status.

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
Purpose: The HLF and HuH-6 cell lines represent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with different characteristics in chromosome content that may give different drug responses. Here, PGV-1 was intended to challenge the growth-suppressing effect on HLF and HuH-6 and trace the molecular target mechanism of action compared to sorafenib. Methods: We applied MTT cytotoxic assay, colony forming assay, flow cytometry analysis, immunofluorescence assay and western blot assay. Results: PGV-1 exhibited cytotoxic effects on HLF and HuH-6 with IC-50 values of 1 µM and 2 µM, respectively, whereas sorafenib showed less cytotoxicity with IC-50 values of 5 µM and 8 µM respectively. PGV-1 suppressed the cell growth permanently but not for sorafenib. Sorafenib did not change the cell cycle profiles on both cells, but PGV-1 arrested the cells at G2/M with the characteristic of senescent cells and mitotic disarrangement. PGV-1 and sorafenib showed the same effect in downregulating p-EGFR, indicating that both compounds have the same target on EGFR activation or as Tyrosine kinase inhibitors. PGV-1 suppressed the MYCN expression in HuH-6 and HLF cells but stabilized cMYC-T58 indicating that even though the MYCN was downregulated, the cells maintained the active form of cMYC. In this regard, PGV-1 also stabilized the expression of PLK-1 and AurA. Conclusion: PGV-1 elicits stronger cytotoxic properties compared to sorafenib. The lower the MYCN expression, the higher the cytotoxic effect of PGV-1. PGV-1 abrogates cell cycle progression of both cells in mitosis through EGFR inhibition and stabilizes PLK-1 and AurA in correlation with the suppression of MYCN expression.
