TCF12 Transcriptionally Activates SPHK1 to Induce Osteosarcoma Angiogenesis by Promoting the S1P/S1PR4/STAT3 Axis.
Article in Molecular and cellular biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Transcription factor 12 (TCF12) is a known oncogene in many cancers. However, whether TCF12 can regulate malignant phenotypes and angiogenesis in osteosarcoma is not elucidated. In this study, we demonstrated increased expression of TCF12 in osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. High TCF12 expression was associated with metastasis and poor survival rate of osteosarcoma patients. Knockdown of TCF12 reduced the proliferation, migration, and invasion of osteosarcoma cells. TCF12 was found to bind to the promoter region of sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1) to induce transcriptional activation of SPHK1 expression and enhance the secretion of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), which eventually resulted in the malignant phenotypes of osteosarcoma cells. In addition, S1P secreted by osteosarcoma cells promoted the angiogenesis of HUVECs by targeting S1PR4 on the cell membrane to activate the STAT3 signaling pathway. These findings suggest that TCF12 may induce transcriptional activation of SPHK1 to promote the synthesis and secretion of S1P. This process likely enhances the malignant phenotypes of osteosarcoma cells and induces angiogenesis via the S1PR4/STAT3 signaling pathway.
