1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Pancreatic cancer cells rely on glutamine to sustain their survival in the stiff and poorly vascularized tumor microenvironment (TME). Inhibiting glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase 1 (GOT1) is a strategy to target glutamine metabolism and impair cancer cell functions. However, it remains unclear how cellular and extracellular elements of the TME respond to GOT1 inhibition. We engineered a pancreatic TME model 'on a dish' and recreated the metabolic interactions. Stromal cells remodeled the extracellular matrix and upregulated metabolic programs, including glutamine metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, and central carbon metabolism. Cell responses to GOT1 inhibition were modulated by TME elements, with reductions in cell viability and proliferation occurring only under tissue-like conditions. GOT1 inhibition altered matrix organization by upregulating different matrix-related proteins, while it did not enhance cell responses to cytotoxic drugs. Our findings uncover the metabolic crosstalk within the TME and show that metabolism-targeting treatments directly impact stromal elements of pancreatic cancer.
