Aidi injection inhibits the migration and invasion of gefitinib-resistant lung adenocarcinoma cells by regulating the PLAT/FAK/AKT pathway.
Article in Chinese medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundWith extended gefitinib treatment, the therapeutic effect in some non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients declined with the development of drug resistance. Aidi injection (ADI) is utilized in various cancers as a traditional Chinese medicine prescription. This study explores the molecular mechanism by which ADI, when combined with gefitinib, attenuates gefitinib resistance in PC9GR NSCLC cells.
methodsIn vitro and in vivo pharmacological experiments were conducted in PC9GR cells and NSG mice with PC9GR cell-derived tumors, respectively. The molecular mechanism of ADI was further studied using whole-transcriptome sequencing technology. Bioinformatics and molecular biology methods were employed to validate the critical targets of ADI.
resultsFirstly, ADI treatment alone and combined with gefitinib significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of PC9GR cells. Then, whole-transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis revealed that PLAT is a key target for the increased efficacy of ADI combined with gefitinib. Additionally, ADI downregulates the expression of PLAT, TNC, ITGB3, p-AKT, p-PI3K, and p-FAK. ADI inhibits the migration and invasion of PC9GR cells by regulating the PLAT/FAK/AKT pathway.
conclusionsAidi injection inhibits the migration and invasion of gefitinib-resistant lung adenocarcinoma cells by regulating the PLAT/FAK/AKT pathway. This study provides essential evidence for elucidating the mechanism of ADI in synergistic therapy for lung cancer.
