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

Studies have shown the inhibitory effect of microRNA-34a on proliferation, migration, and invasion of oral squamous cell carcinoma. However, the lack of a safe and effective delivery system limits the clinical application of microRNA-34a in oral cancer treatment. An exosome is a small extracellular vesicle that mediates intercellular communication by delivering proteins, nucleic acids, and other contents, and functions as a natural drug delivery carrier. Here, we aimed to explore whether exosomes could be used to load microRNA-34a via co-incubation and further used to treat OSCC. Ultracentrifugation was used to obtain exosomes derived from HEK293T cells and the extracted exosomes were analyzed via transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and Western blotting. Subsequently, we loaded cholesterol-modified microRNA-34a into HEK293T cell exosomes by co-incubation. Then, PKH67 and Cy3 co-labeled exo-microRNA-34a were co-incubated with HN6 cells and exosome entry into the HN6 cells was observed using a confocal laser scanning microscope. The cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were assessed by CCK-8 and Transwell assay analysis. SATB2 expression in HN6 cells was analyzed via western blotting. In this study, cholesterol-modified microRNA-34a was loaded into exosomes of HEK293T cells by co-incubation. The microRNA-34a-loaded exosomes were secreted from HEK293T cells and were absorbed by HN6 oral squamous carcinoma cells. Further, microRNA-34a-loaded exosomes led to a significant inhibition of HN6 cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by down regulating SATB2 expression. These results report a new delivery method for microRNA-34a, providing a new approach for the treatment of oral cancer.
