1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The purine biosynthetic pathway was recently identified to play a crucial role in breast cancer progression. However, little was known about the regulatory mechanisms of long non-coding RNA in breast cancer purine metabolism. In this study, we discovered that LncRNA TPT1-AS1 (TPT1-AS1) was downregulated in breast cancer tissues. Its introduction in breast cancer cells markedly suppressed tumor growth and metastasis in xenograft tumor models. Mass spectrometric analysis suggested that the purine biosynthetic pathway was activated in TPT1-AS1-knockdown MCF-7 cells. Inosine monophosphate (IMP), the product of de novo purine biosynthesis, was significantly upregulated. Mechanistically, we found that TPT1-AS1 could physically interact with CBP (CREB-binding protein), which consequently led to the loss of H3K27Ac in the promoter area of ATIC, the key enzyme of IMP synthesis. This process could block breast cancer purine metabolism and inhibit breast cancer progression. In conclusion, our findings illustrate the role of non-coding RNAs in breast cancer purine metabolism reprogramming and present a potential candidate for breast cancer therapy.
