Atractylenolide I Inhibits the Growth of Esophageal Cancer Cells by Inhibiting the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway.
Article in Anti-cancer agents in medicinal chemistry, 2025. 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
backgroundEsophageal cancer is a highly lethal cancer with a rapidly increasing incidence and a poor prognosis. Atractylenolide I is a natural sesquiterpene lactone extracted from the rhizome of the Asteraceae plant, which has a variety of pharmacological effects, such as anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory. Still, its impact on esophageal cancer has not been reported. Therefore, this study investigated the in vitro and in vivo effects of Atractylenolide I on the growth and proliferation of esophageal cancer and explored its possible mechanisms.
methodsTo evaluate the effect of atractylenolide I on esophageal cancer cells, apoptosis assay and cell cycle assay tests were performed. Atractylenolide I was used to treat esophageal cancer cells for 48 hours, and flow cytometry detects apoptosis and cell cycle. The Wnt/β-catenin-related pathway proteins were then detected by Western blotting. For
resultsThe result shows that Atractylenolide I inhibited the proliferation and induced apoptosis of esophageal squamous carcinoma and adenocarcinoma cells. Further research shows that Atractylenolide I inhibited the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, decreased the expression of CCND1, MYC, and FN1 genes, and thus increased the apoptosis of esophageal cancer cells and blocked the cell cycle in G
conclusionThis study indicates that Atractylenolide I is an efficient lead compound for the treatment of esophageal cancer, providing a theoretical basis for further clinical development and application of Atractylenolide I.
