Enhancement of Rotenone Cytotoxicity in the Presence of Bach1 Inhibitors.

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
A novel trend in anticancer therapy is based on the combination of cytotoxic and metabolic drugs. Bach1 is a transcription factor activating glycolysis and increasing proliferation and metastatic potential in cancer cells. The cytotoxic effect was evaluated for a combination of rotenone, an inhibitor of mitochondrial respiration, and two different inhibitors of Bach1 transcription factor in the prostate cancer cell lines (PC3 and Du145) and colorectal cancer (HT-29 and HCT-116) in a kinetic mode. An enhancement of the cytotoxic action of the combination therapy was observed only for the prostate cancer cell lines PC3 and Du145. No enhancement of cytotoxicity of zinc porphyrin in the presence of rotenone was observed for the НСТ-116 line. The HT-29 line was not sensitive to either inhibitor or their combination with rotenone at 24 h incubation. According to the PCR results, HT-29 was the only line showing an extremely high activation of heme oxygenase 1 (HMOX1) in the presence of the Bach1 inhibitor, pointing to the highest level of the antioxidant defense in this cell line. The sensitivity of the prostate cancer cell lines to the combination therapy points to the significant differences in the metabolism between the prostate and colorectal cell lines.
