FAP promotes metastasis and chemoresistance via regulating YAP1 and macrophages in mucinous colorectal adenocarcinoma.
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
Mucinous colorectal adenocarcinoma (MC) is less likely to respond to chemotherapy and is associated with poorer prognosis compared with non-MC (NMC). Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) was found and validated to be upregulated in MC patients and was negatively correlated with prognosis and therapeutic outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients who were treated with adjuvant chemotherapy. Overexpression of FAP promoted CRC cell growth, invasion and metastasis, and enhanced chemoresistance. Myosin phosphatase Rho-interacting protein (MPRIP) was identified as a direct interacting protein of FAP. FAP may influence the efficiency of chemotherapy and prognosis by promoting the crucial functions of CRC and inducing tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) recruitment and M2 polarization through regulating theRas Homolog Family Member/Hippo/Yes-associated protein (Rho/Hippo/YAP) signaling pathway. Knockdown of FAP could reverse tumorigenicity and chemoresistance in CRC cells. Thus, FAP may serve as a marker for prognosis and therapeutic outcome, as well as a potential therapeutic target to overcome chemoresistance in MC patients.
