Tumor hypoxia evidences the differential regulation of Mdm2-p53 axis by PTEN in tumor derived vs. normal endothelial cells.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hypoxia, a condition of oxygen tension lower than physiological level, plays a crucial role in shaping the tumor microenvironment and modulates distinct cell populations activity. The tumor suppressor PTEN regulates angiogenesis, a process involving endothelial cells (ECs). Pathological in tumors, it is crucial for growth. As PTEN modulates p53, a key regulator of the ECs growth/angiogenic activity, it appears to be a target enabling the repair of the pathologic angiogenesis. This study aims to compare ECs derived from breast cancer (HBCa.MEC) site with those derived from the healthy breast tissue (HBH.MEC). Hypoxia increased angiogenic activity in HBCa.MEC vs. HBH.MEC, as showed an increased. Ability to form vessels in vitro. Low pO2 reduced the total level of Mdm2 and PTEN protein expression leading to elevated levels of their phosphorylation-dependent activity in HBCa.MEC, what was not changed in healthy ECs. Additionally, when Mdm2-p53 interaction was inhibited, hypoxic HBCa.MEC angiogenic activity was reduced reaching the normoxic ECs response. In conclusion, the PTEN-mediated control of pathological angiogenesis occurs by modulation of Mdm2/p53 interaction in the context of breast tumor microenvironment. PTEN emerges as a potential therapeutic target for normalizing tumor vessels in breast cancer treatment strategies.
