Transcriptional activation of LINGO1 facilitates proliferation and immune escape in colorectal cancer.

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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a major global health challenge, underscoring the need for reliable biomarkers to improve prognosis and therapeutic stratification. In this study, we comprehensively investigated the expression pattern, clinical significance, molecular functions, and immunological implications of LINGO1 in CRC. Integrative analyses of TCGA and GEO datasets, together with validation in 72 clinical CRC samples, demonstrated that LINGO1 is markedly overexpressed in tumors and strongly associated with advanced clinicopathological features and poor patient outcomes. Functional experiments revealed that both knockdown of LINGO1 in SW480 and LoVo cells and overexpression of LINGO1 in HCT116 cells significantly modulate malignant phenotypes, including proliferation, migration, invasion, and angiogenic capacity. Transcriptome-wide and pathway enrichment analyses further indicated that high LINGO1 expression is linked to epithelial-mesenchymal transition, angiogenesis, Wnt/β-catenin signaling, and other oncogenic pathways. Immunogenomic profiling, supported by multiplex immunofluorescence staining, showed that elevated LINGO1 is associated with an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment characterized by reduced CD8⁺ T-cell infiltration and diminished GZMB expression, alongside upregulation of multiple immune checkpoint molecules. Collectively, our findings identify LINGO1 as a novel oncogenic driver and immune-modulatory biomarker in colorectal cancer, with potential value for prognosis and therapeutic targeting.
