TMEM176B Promotes EMT via FGFR/JNK Signalling in Development and Tumourigenesis of Lung Adenocarcinoma.
Article in Cancers, 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
Lung cancer, the leading cause of cancer-related incidence and mortality worldwide, is characterised by high invasiveness and poor prognosis. Novel therapeutic targets are required, especially for patients with inoperable metastatic disease requiring systemic therapies to improve patients' welfare. Recently, studies indicated that TMEM176B is a positive regulator in breast and gastric cancers, and it could be a potential target for treatment. In this study, we used single-cell sequencing, proteomics, Co-IP, and in vivo and in vitro experimental models to investigate the role of TMEM176B in lung adenocarcinoma development. Our study indicated that TMEM176B expression was enhanced in lung adenocarcinoma tissues, and it was associated with shorter overall survival (OS). TMEM176B promoted cellular functions, including cell proliferation, invasion, migration and adhesion in vitro and tumour growth in vivo. Moreover, the tube formation ability of endothelial cells was enhanced by treating with the tumour cell-conditioned medium. We have also demonstrated that TMEM176B regulated EMT via the FGFR1/JNK/Vimentin/Snail signalling cascade. Overall, our study suggests TMEM176B could be a potential therapeutic target in lung adenocarcinoma.
