BTNL9 exerts anti-cancer effects by inhibiting CDC20 to induce G2/M arrest in pancreatic cancer.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundPancreatic cancer (PC) is an aggressive malignancy. As a member of the BTN/BTNL family, BTNL9 has been identified as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer, lung adenocarcinoma, and colon cancer; however, its role and underlying mechanisms in PC remain to be elucidated.
aimTo investigate the role of BTNL9 in the pathogenesis and development of PC.
methodsThe difference of BTNL9 expression in cancer and adjacent normal tissues was analyzed by RNA sequencing data from a public database and tissue microarray detection. The relationship between BTNL9 expression and the prognosis of patients was also studied. The effects of BTNL9 on proliferation, metastasis, and cell cycle of PC cells were investigated by phenotypic experiments. The mechanism was investigated by RNA sequencing, western blotting, and immunofluorescence detection.
resultsThe mRNA and protein levels of BTNL9 in PC tissues were downregulated compared with normal tissues. Based on survival data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and tissue microarray, BTNL9 was an independent influencing factor for overall survival, and its low expression predicted a shortened overall survival of patients.
conclusionThe expression of BTNL9 was downregulated in PC, and it has the prediction ability for prognosis. Functionally, BTNL9 exerted an anti-cancer effect by suppressing downstream CDC20 expression in PC.
