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

backgroundChemotherapy resistance is a major challenge in the treatment of intermediate and advanced gastric cancer (GC). This study aimed to recognize oxaliplatin resistance-related genes (OXARGs) in GC and to explore their role and mechanism in oxaliplatin resistance of GC.

methodsOXARGs with prognostic value in GC were analyzed using GC oxaliplatin resistance data from the GEO and TCGA databases. RT-qPCR and WB assay were applied to verify the expression of MT2A, NOTCH1 and SLC7A5 in oxaliplatin-resistant GC cells (HGC27R and MKN45R). The effect of SLC7A5 on the malignant phenotype of oxaliplatin-resistant GC cells was verified by CCK-8, EDU, TUNEL, colony formation, wound healing, transwell assay, tumor bearing experiments and WB assay.

resultsBioinformatics analysis and experimental validation indicate that SLC7A5 was a target for oxaliplatin-resistance in GC. Knockdown of SLC7A5 obviously decreased the viability, migration, and invasion of oxaliplatin-resistant GC cells in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. It also increased the apoptosis levels and BAX expression, and reduced the expression of BCL2, MMP 2 and MMP9. Additionally, the knockdown of SLC7A5 enhanced the sensitivity of oxaliplatin-resistant GC cells to oxaliplatin both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, knockdown of SLC7A5 downregulated the expression of HK2, LDHA, Glut1, and PDK1 both in vivo and in vitro, leading to increased extracellular glucose levels and decreased lactate levels. However, glutathione significantly attenuated the regulatory effect of SLC7A5 knockdown on the malignant phenotype of oxaliplatin-resistant GC cells.

trial registrationNot Applicable.

conclusionKnockdown of SLC7A5 inhibits malignant progression and attenuates oxaliplatin resistance in GC by suppressing glycolysis.
