Thyroid Hormone Receptor β Suppresses Cancer Cell Activity by Differential Regulation of Glycogen Metabolism.
Article in Endocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is one of the most lethal endocrine cancers with no enduring therapies. Thyroid hormone receptor β (TRβ), a recognized tumor suppressor, modulates the transcriptome altering gene expression in numerous intracellular signaling pathways. Our recent studies revealed that TRβ agonism inhibits glycogen metabolism in ATC cells. Our goal in the present study was to delineate the molecular mechanisms by which TRβ regulates glycogen synthesis and breakdown. In ATC cells, activation of TRβ induced changes in expression of genes and proteins in glycogen signaling concordant with downregulation of cancer metabolism. The impact on the cancer cell metabolic phenotype was determined by glycogen levels, cell viability, and reactive oxygen species characterization. Our results revealed that TRβ activation differentially regulates glycogen signaling pathways reflective of the genetic landscape of the cells. This suggests TRβ can suppress tumor growth and progression through multiple steps in glycogen metabolism, giving it a unique and distinct role in fine-tuning the microenvironment of the cell as an internal sensor of the general environment of the cell. These studies reveal the potential of a synergistic effect of TRβ agonism and inhibition of glycogen metabolism in the treatment of aggressive dedifferentiated thyroid cancers.
