Lung cancer exosomal Gal3BP promotes osteoclastogenesis with potential connotation in osteolytic metastasis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
New insights into cellular interactions and key biomolecules involved in lung cancer (LC) bone metastasis could offer remarkable therapeutic benefits. Using a panel of four LC cells, we investigated LC-bone interaction by exposing differentiating osteoclasts (OCs) to LC cells (LC-OC interaction) directly in a co-culture setting or indirectly via treatment with LC secretomes (conditioned media or exosomes). LC-OC interaction facilitated the production of large-sized OCs (nuclei > 10) coupled with extensive bone resorption pits. Proteomic analysis of LC exosomes identified galectin-3-binding protein (Gal3bp) as a potential biomarker which was released primarily by most of LC-derived exosomes. The facilitation of OC differentiation and function by LC-exosomal Gal3bp was supported by the application of recombinant Gal3bp and anti-Gal3bp in OC treatment. Further, our results exhibited a dysregulation of crucial OC markers (TRAF6, p-SAPK/JNK, p-44/42 MAPK, NFAT2 and CD9) during LC-OC interaction that possibly contributed to the facilitation of osteoclastogenesis. Simulation of bone metastasis via intratibial injection of LC cells revealed Gal3bp's possible roles in enhancing OC activation leading to osseous tissue resorption. Overall, this work implicated LC-exosomal Gal3bp in osteolytic metastasis of LC which warrants further studies to assess its potential prognostic and therapeutic relevance.
