BZW2 promotes malignant progression in lung adenocarcinoma through enhancing the ubiquitination and degradation of GSK3β.
Article in Cell death discovery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The role of Basic leucine zipper and W2 domains 2 (BZW2) in the advancement of different types of tumors is noteworthy, but its involvement and molecular mechanisms in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain uncertain. Through this investigation, it was found that the upregulation of BZW2 was observed in LUAD tissues, which was associated with an unfavorable prognosis for individuals diagnosed with LUAD, as indicated by data from Gene Expression Omnibus and The Cancer Genome Atlas databases. Based on the clinicopathologic characteristics of LUAD patients from the tissue microarray, both univariate and multivariate analyses indicated that BZW2 functioned as an independent prognostic factor for LUAD. In terms of mechanism, BZW2 interacted with glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK3β) and enhanced the ubiquitination-mediated degradation of GSK3β through slowing down of the dissociation of the ubiquitin ligase complex, which consists of GSK3β and TNF receptor-associated factor 6. Moreover, BZW2 stimulated Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway through GSK3β, thereby facilitating the advancement of LUAD. In conclusion, BZW2 was a significant promoter of LUAD. The research we conducted identified a promising diagnostic and therapeutic target for LUAD.
