Efficient dose-dependent and time-dependent protein transduction of pancreatic carcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo using purified VP22-EGFP fusion protein.
Article in Journal of molecular medicine (Berlin, Germany), 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We constructed a prokaryotic vector expressing a truncated VP22-EGFP gene and purified this fusion protein from Escherichia coli cultures using nickel resin. Application of purified VP22-EGFP protein to human pancreatic carcinoma cells showed a highly efficient time-dependent and dose-dependent uptake and resulted in green fluorescence predominantly located in the nuclei of treated cells. Purified VP22-EGFP efficiently translocated into deeper layers of pancreatic tumor cell spheroids. Homogeneous uptake into the whole tumor was observed after peritumoral injection in human pancreatic tumors in SCID mice. We conclude that the direct application of purified VP22 fusion proteins offers a new, peptide-mediated and potentially systemic therapy for pancreatic cancer. This opens the possibility of achieving specific antitumor effects induced by fused apoptosis-enhancing proteins.
