A pan-cancer analysis of the oncogenic and immunological roles of RGS5 in clear cell renal cell carcinomas based on in vitro experiment validation.
Article in Human genomics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 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
backgroundRGS5, the first gene identified in tumor-resident pericytes, plays a crucial role in angiogenesis. However, its effects on immunology and prognosis in human cancer are still mostly unknown. This study investigates the carcinogenic and immunological roles of RGS5 through a comprehensive pan-cancer analysis.
methodsA standardized pan-cancer dataset for RGS5 was obtained from the public database. R software and relevant packages were utilized to analyze the oncogenic and immunological roles. Clinical samples and cellular experiments were conducted to validate RGS5 expression and its biological function in renal cancer.
resultsBioinformatics analysis revealed that RGS5 is dysregulated in a variety of human malignancies and is significantly associated with patient prognosis. Additionally, RGS5 expression is closely linked to tumor heterogeneity and stemness indicators across different cancer types. Co-expression of RGS5 with genes involved in MHC, immune activation, immunosuppressive proteins, chemokines, and chemokine receptors was observed in various tumors. High expression of RGS5 predicts a good prognosis in patients with renal cancer. In the renal cancer cohort, RGS5 expression strongly correlated with the distribution of tumor-associated fibroblasts. Silencing RGS5 expression can affect the proliferation, migration, and invasion of renal carcinoma cells.
conclusionsRGS5 expression in tumors is intricately associated with various clinical features, particularly concerning tumor progression and patient prognosis.
