TMSB10 drives prostate cancer aggressiveness via immune microenvironment regulation.
Article in Molecular medicine (Cambridge, Mass.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Thymosin β10 (TMSB10) has emerged as a key player in the progression of prostate cancer, significantly influencing the tumor immune microenvironment. Pan-cancer analysis from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) revealed that TMSB10 is upregulated across multiple cancer types, particularly in prostate cancer, where high TMSB10 expression correlates with poorer patient outcomes. Functional assays using prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP and DU145 showed that TMSB10 silencing suppresses cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, while overexpression enhances these oncogenic processes. Furthermore, co-culture experiments demonstrated that TMSB10 overexpression skews macrophage polarization, decreasing the population of M1-type macrophages while increasing M2-type macrophages. This shift reduces immune cell cytotoxicity and alters cytokine secretion, highlighting TMSB10's role in immune evasion. These findings establish TMSB10 as a pivotal factor in prostate cancer biology, promoting tumor aggressiveness and modulating the immune response within the tumor microenvironment. TMSB10 presents a promising therapeutic target for prostate cancer, offering new avenues for treatments aimed at altering the tumor immune landscape. This research also provides a foundation for further exploration of TMSB10's role in other cancers.
