ETV7 promotes colorectal cancer progression through upregulation of IFIT3.
Article in Functional & integrative genomics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Members of the E26 transformation-specific (ETS) variant transcription factor family act as either tumor suppressors or oncogenic factors in numerous types of cancer. ETS variant transcription factor 7 (ETV7) participates in the development of malignant tumors, whereas its involvement in colorectal cancer (CRC) is less clear. In this study, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and immunochemistry staining were applied to check the clinical relevance of ETV7 and interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 3 (IFIT3) in CRC patients. Overexpression and knockdown of ETV7 and IFIT3 were conducted by transfecting the cells with pCDNA3.1 plasmids and siRNAs, respectively. Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression of ETV7 in CRC cells. Cell Counting Kit-8, cell colony formation, and Transwell assays, as well as flow cytometry, were used to evaluate the proliferation, migration, cell cycle, and apoptosis of CRC cells. Furthermore, western blotting, RT-qPCR, and luciferase assay were used to explore the regulation of ETV7 on IFIT3. Rescue assay was used to investigate the significance of ETV7/IFIT3 axis on CRC progression. We found that ETV7 was upregulated in CRC tissues and cells. Overexpression of ETV7 stimulated the proliferation, migration, and cell cycle amplification, and reduced the apoptosis of CRC cells. Downregulation of ETV7 exerted the opposite effect on CRC cell progression. Moreover, we demonstrated that ETV7 stimulated the transcription activity, the mRNA and protein expression of IFIT3 in CRC cells. There was a positive correlation between ETV7 and IFIT3 in CRC patients. IFIT3 knockdown reversed the promotive effect exerted by overexpression of ETV7 on the amplification and migration of CRC cells. By contrast, overexpression of IFIT3 blocked the inhibitory effect of ETV7-targeting siRNA. In summary, ETV7 induces progression of CRC by activating the transcriptional expression of IFIT3. The EVT7/IFIT3 axis may be a novel target for CRC therapy.
