MACC1 revisited - an in-depth review of a master of metastasis.
Review in Biomarker research, 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
Cancer metastasis remains the most lethal characteristic of tumors mediating the majority of cancer-related deaths. Identifying key molecules responsible for metastasis, understanding their biological functions and therapeutically targeting these molecules is therefore of tremendous value. Metastasis Associated in Colon Cancer 1 (MACC1), a gene first described in 2009, is such a key driver of metastatic processes, initiating cellular proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis in vitro and in vivo. Since its discovery, the value of MACC1 as a prognostic biomarker has been confirmed in over 20 cancer entities. Additionally, several therapeutic strategies targeting MACC1 and its pro-metastatic functions have been developed. In this review, we will provide a comprehensive overview on MACC1, from its clinical relevance, towards its structure and role in signaling cascades as well as molecular networks. We will highlight specific biological consequences of MACC1 expression, such as an increase in stem cell properties, its immune-modulatory effects and induced therapy resistance. Lastly, we will explore various strategies interfering with MACC1 expression and/or its functions. Conclusively, this review underlines the importance of understanding the role of individual molecules in mediating metastasis.
