Transcriptomic profiling of epigenetic regulators and metabolic reprogramming in human cholangiocarcinoma.

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
Background: Epigenetic alterations play an increasingly recognized role in carcinogenesis and in the development of resistance to anticancer therapies. Epigenetic enzymes (writers and erasers) and effectors (readers) are largely influenced by the availability of metabolites generated through one-carbon metabolism (OCM), the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and acetyl-CoA synthesis (ACS). In this study we examined the expression of epigenetic and metabolic genes to investigate their interplay in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Method: We examined 257 epigenetic genes (EpiGs), 96 metabolic genes (MGs), and 189 rate-limiting enzymes (RLEs) in transcriptomic data from iCCA, eCCA, and normal bile ducts, healthy liver-derived organoids, and CCA tumoroids, alongside prognostic signatures. CRISPR-Cas9 DepMap data evaluated the impact of EpiGs and MGs on cell viability. HuCCT-1 iCCA cells were exposed to hypoxia (1% O Results: Several EpiGs were upregulated in iCCA and eCCA, including writers ( Conclusion: EpiGs and MGs are markedly altered in both human and experimental CCA, with several changes particularly enriched in aggressive molecular subclasses associated with poor prognosis. We observed substantial rewiring of epigenetic cofactor-related MG expression in CCAs. Functional assays validated new targets among EpiGs (e.g.,
