Tensins in Cancer: Integration of Their Domain Functions, Context-Dependent Regulation and Biomarker Potential.
Review in Biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Tensins (TNS1-4) are pivotal molecular scaffolds bridging the actin cytoskeleton to integrin-based adhesions, orchestrating signal transduction and governing cellular processes in cancer. Structurally, the N-terminal actin-binding domain (ABD) in TNS1-3 enables cytoskeletal regulation and interactions with regulators like the Rho GAP DLC1, while ABD-deficient TNS4 functions as a focal adhesion signal amplifier. Functionally, TNS1-3 exhibit context-dependent duality as tumor promoters or suppressors, dictated by tissue-specific microenvironments and signaling crosstalk. In contrast, TNS4 acts predominantly as an oncoprotein across carcinomas by stabilizing epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), driving epithelial-mesenchymal transition and invasion, and sustaining proliferation. Clinically, tensin dysregulation correlates with metastasis and poor prognosis: TNS2 serves as a diagnostic biomarker for gastrointestinal stromal tumors, aberrant TNS1/TNS3 expression predicts metastasis risk, and TNS4 is recurrently embedded in multi-gene prognostic signatures. This review synthesizes their structural basis, regulatory mechanisms, and clinical relevance, highlighting context-dependent switches and TNS4's therapeutic potential.
