circ-TTC17 Promotes Esophagus Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cell Growth, Metastasis, and Inhibits Autophagy-Mediated Radiosensitivity Through miR-145-5p/SIRT1 Axis.
Article in Thoracic cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundCircular RNA (circRNA) plays a significant role in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) progression. Nevertheless, circ-TTC17 roles in ESCC have not fully understood.
methodsThe levels of circ-TTC17, miR-145-5p and sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) were determined using qRT-PCR. ESCC cell functions were examined by CCK8 assay, flow cytometry, transwell assay and colony formation assay. The relative protein levels of autophagy marker and SIRT1 were determined by western blot (WB). The interactions among circ-TTC17, miR-145-5p, and SIRT1 were verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RIP assay.
resultscirc-TTC17 was overexpressed and miR-145-5p was underexpressed in ESCC. circ-TTC17 knockdown restrained ESCC cell proliferation and metastasis, while enhance apoptosis and autophagy-mediated radiosensitivity. Circ-TTC17 could sponge miR-145-5p, and its inhibitor reversed the inhibitory effect of circ-TTC17 knockdown on ESCC cell progression. Additionally, SIRT1 was targeted by miR-145-5p, and SIRT1 overexpression abolished miR-145-5p-mediated the suppressive effect on ESCC cell progression. Also, circ-TTC17 interference reduced ESCC tumor growth via miR-145-5p/SIRT1 axis.
conclusioncirc-TTC17 promoted ESCC cell growth, metastasis and inhibited autophagy-mediated radiosensitivity by miR-145-5p/SIRT1 axis.
