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

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common and deadly cancers. Fbxo45, a substrate recognition subunit of E3 ligase, is critically involved in tumorigenesis and tumor progression. However, the function of Fbxo45 and the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated in ESCC. We used cellular and molecular methods to explore the molecular basis of Fbxo45-mediated ESCC development. We found that ectopic overexpression of Fbxo45 promoted the growth of Kyse-150, Kyse30 and ECA-109 cells and inhibited the apoptosis. Moreover, overexpression of Fbxo45 promoted the migration and invasion of ESCC cells. Consistently, knockdown of Fbxo45 exhibited the opposite effects on ESCC cells. Mechanistically, we observed that Fbxo45 binds to GGNBP2 via its SPRY domain and targets GGNBP2 for ubiquitination and degradation. GGNBP2 overexpression exhibited anticancer activity in ESCC cells. Furthermore, Fbxo45 exerted its functions by regulating GGNBP2 stability in ESCC cells. Notably, overexpression of Fbxo45 facilitated tumor growth in mice. Strikingly, Fbxo45 was highly expressed in ESCC tissues, and GGNBP2 had a lower expression in ESCC specimens. High expression of Fbxo45 and low expression of GGNBP2 were associated with poor prognosis in ESCC patients. Fbxo45 was negatively correlated with GGNBP2 expression in ESCC tissues. Therefore, Fbxo45 serves as an oncoprotein to promote ESCC tumorigenesis by targeting the stability of the tumor suppressor GGNBP2 in ESCC.
